Love 2cb. Almost like a perfect blend of LSD and MDMA, but somehow different than taking both together.

Haha yeah that's one of the main communities that I miss the most. That and r/magicplantsexchange. I also haven't been on in over a year.

My collection is also getting unruly haha. I have probably 150 or so at this point, but BD is the one I could definitely make some space for. That and maybe CSD. Let me know if anything changes!!

Nice! Been wanting BD for a while. Interested in getting rid of some cuttings? Or possibly a trade?

I was ranked #1 in the world for a good while in Pistol Whip. On both PC and PS4, before they separated out all the leaderboards based on modifiers.

Self hosting kids-friendly multiplayer games on Raspberry Pi 4 in c/[email protected]

Definitely possible -- check out emulatorjs. There are a few premade docker containers for it, but they were a bit finicky when I tried them. I eventually just ended up writing a react wrapper for it and have it hosted in a docker container. It works great, and will even play psx games without issue.

Ketamine is a psychedelic medicine that is most associated with descriptions of a near death experience in c/psychedelic_society

Yeahhhh I was gonna say this definitely seems off. I have plenty of experience with LSD/psilocybin/DMT/mescaline and to put DMT below the others, especially shrooms, tells me that they have no idea what they're talking about. I think salvia is definitely in the right spot though, and although I've never tried it, 5-meo-dmt is supposed to be even more intense than DMT so it should be much much higher.

Also, the active ingredients in Ayahuasca are DMT and 5-meo-dmt, but you take a maoi to make them last much longer. Putting Ayahuasca that far below DMT is kind of ridiculous.

Also also, 5-aco-dmt is a prodrug for psilocybin. Your body turns it into it. They are technically the same thing, so why the huge disparity there?

Also also also (I just noticed peyote cactus, Peruvian torch cactus, and mescaline are all separate entries), the active ingredient in peyote and Peruvian torch is mescaline. They are one and the same. Wtf lol....

I'm not your checkbro, checkfriend

what are 5 Lemmy communities I probably haven't heard of but should join? in c/[email protected]

Mid 30s and still can't grow a beard or moustache. There is no hope for me.

Decided I'd give a sneak peek at something I'm working on:

Since building my home server I've constantly been on the lookout for a decent frontend to manage my files, etc. I initially tried file browser, but it was always really buggy for me, and honestly I hated it.

Since my server is headless, a PiKVM and the like wouldn't really work for me the way I wanted, so I decided to just build what I was looking for on my own.

And with that, I'd like to introduce: ~~redox_os~~ TBD

It's an emulated OS built in react with a node+express backend. It's made to be as fully customizable as you want. You can create new "apps" for it very easily. Anything you can make in react/JavaScript can be loaded as an "app" with just a simple config file.

It's still very much a work in progress, but I figured it was complete enough for a little show and tell.

Current features:

a desktop with icons/etc
a file browser
text editor (complete with syntax highlighting)
a full featured terminal
a picture viewer
a music player
a video player (capable of live-transcoding to an html5 compatible format)
a file downloader (for downloading files to the server from the web)
full drag and drop capabilities (even drop files from outside your browser to upload)
downloading files from the server to local
full mobile/touch support

I'm also still very much deciding how to handle the release. It's mostly functional already, but I'd really want it to be polished before a proper release.

Since I also have a full time job, that may take a while. Contributors would definitely help, but I'm also a little split on whether I should make if FOSS. I'm definitely leaning so, but idk.

Definitely open to any feedback, suggestions, criticism, etc.

Edit: Thanks to everyone for the feedback! Looks like I'll definitely be going FOSS. Also I'll be changing the name 😄

Not sure what to call it now though. Maybe reDOS? Lol

I still wanna tidy everything up a bit before making the code public. Maybe go back and start adding some comments/documentation as currently there is none. I'm really terrible about that.

Also definitely a bit shy to open up my code to public scrutiny haha. I'm sure there are plenty of mistakes and bad practices.
