  • You know how you and your friends with different email services can still email each other?

    Now imagine all the messages you “email” back & forth are instead messages you’ve posted on a message board, and anybody can read & reply

    To address another complex matter if they ever ask:

    You know how your email service can help sort or block spam in your incoming email? Hosts of one message board service can filter/block other particular people’s/services’ messages from showing up to your feed, too


  • One of my coworkers prepped a salad for me once, without me asking. Halved grapes, sweet potato, romaine & kale, chopped hard boiled eggs, and other stuff I don’t remember - with some homemade balsamic mixed in. I felt like it had all the textures of the rainbow except pudding.

    It was really weird for me, but it was alright. I had no choice because she made a whole bowl for me beside her own @.@




  • Somewhere in Hawaii: $3.50 last Thursday
    $3.60 yesterday, Monday
    $4.90 $4.10 today, Tuesday, but this gas station was also closed today

    Pretty horrifying, thanks

    Edit: my bad, it was 4.099 (as in $4.10) that Tuesday, not 4.90
    It is Thursday, March 12, & it’s $4.15 now.

    Edit: it is Friday the 13th, and gas is $4.35 (4.349, but it’s really 4.35 to me)

  • Tl;dr, bc linux is based

    I got a steam deck when it came out. The desktop side was really cool, and all my games ran great on it.

    Soon after, I finally bought my (former) dream pc case & decided with my next pc build I wanted linux because… it felt like the cool thing to do. With the steam deck, linux seemed just cool-new and easy to use. I couldn’t imagine not being able to solve any problems on a well-established distro with just patience and google-fu.

    So I had mint and two flavors of fedora on flash drives and couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to enlarge my cursor on either fedora version. On mint cinnamon, I found the setting right away. I’ve been on mint since and haven’t looked back.

    Pretty rarely, I get the question, why tf are you using linux? My answer is pretty much “cause I think it’s based? Plus I get to learn more about computers along the way anytime something doesn’t work.”
