I’ve never relayed to a meme more. I moved my UPS to my work computer after that one failed and three days later, I lost power. Spent five hours fixing a corrupted SD card then reconfiguring my Pi-Hole and HomeBridge.

Not a big fan of cherry-picking posts and comments to pre-emptively defederate because of opposing ideals.

This opinion comes from knowing nothing at all about hexbear prior to this post.

Human connection takes effort, regardless of if it’s a romantic relationship or a friendship. Part of growth as a person is identifying and establishing boundaries, learning respect and attention to others without self-sacrifice, and being aware of your own choices and actions and the impact it has on others.

It’s always worth it for people, but people aren’t always willing to put in the work on themselves to be able to create thriving and healthy relationships, so they turn to some easy button or they take the route that relations “just aren’t worth it”.

No fucking shit? You mean a relationship without the human element is bad?

Well no wonder the studios can’t afford to pay their writers, necromancy is extremely expensive.

From my understanding, the stability issues drive from repeated DDoS attacks. I’m not sure locking new membership solves that problem but does run the risk of starving new members from joining and risking a shrinkage of content.

I’m sure the admins are focused on more than one thing at a time and closing the site doesn’t seem like it makes a whole lot of sense.

I mean, it’s not great, but it’s not that awful. Pretty good for ending a night out and it’s cheap.

Is Wendy’s better? Yes, but go to a Wendy’s at 2am trying to gullet a Dave’s Double and you’re going to be sick. Jack has burgers that won’t upset your stomach and don’t sit as heavy.

Marcoh hid the formula for the philosopher’s stone within (very bad) recipe books so they wouldn’t be deciphered.

Yesterday without a Braves game felt like it was 48 hours instead of 24.

Politics was my first blocked community on Lemmy. Then every other US politics community that has sprung up. They’re either echo chambers or flame wars and it’s irritating to use the internet as an escapism and run into arguments daily.

Seems to be intermittent.

Yeah, it’s killing me slowly. I can’t afford solar, I keep my AC at 78 during the day when I’m home and off entirely overnight, I never turn lights on in the house, and I cook only with natural gas or charcoal and I’m still facing $400/mo from May to October.

I hit the “peak billing rate” for PG&E on the third day of the billing cycle each month and they say I just need to fork over cash for solar or reduce my energy further.

I just need a few more years off on my mortgage and I’m going to have to sell and move back to the Southeast, I guess.
