This is Charlie. He's ten years old, quite vocal, and very orange. in c/[email protected]

I would kill and die for Charlie.

Jame-o to stop the pain-o

Big into tripels at the moment also. There’s a very tasty peach tripel out of Richmond, VA that I’ve been stuck on for a bit.

There’s definitely other instances that are English language now, fwiw.

https://fedia.io comes to mind, at least. I’ve seen a few others floating around.

Does anyone actually use LibreOffice? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I used LibreOffice exclusively in college — it was a lifesaver for my broke ass, since most of my money went to beer and hobbies (DnD, home severs, guitars, more drinking…)

It got the job done, but I wasn’t doing a whole lot of writing fwiw. Once I got over the whole “save it using the correct format or your professors will fail you” hump, it was everything I needed and more.

Don’t do any writing that isn’t markdown now, and I write that in Vscode or Obsidian these days.

what are you itching to run? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

My DM recently ran the Beginner Box for our group.

Was a lot of fun, and is specifically geared at learning the rules.

We messed it up and botched a few things here and there trying to push the rules, but went in with the zero consequences mindset and had a blast.

Hope you get to run it soon!

Edit: I also highly recommend this character builder if you’re going to use R20 to run Pathfinder — R20s charactermancer was a bit limiting, at least when we played ~3-4 months ago.

Are you kidding me? I would kill for a user base that over reports.

Better that than the guy who downloads taxformpdf.exe and runs it without a second thought.

Why or? I say unicycling and juggling

What's your recurring nightmare? What do you think it means? (kbin.social)
 

I'm an "unprepared for exam" kind of guy.

I've been out of school for a number of years, but I still have recurring nightmares about finals I didn't know were coming.

Never exactly the same (tonight was an exam on logical operators? which I know pretty well out here in the real world?) but some things are usually constant:

  • I always find out days before a final exam that I was enrolled in a class I needed to graduate, but never attended because I didn't know it was on my schedule
  • I'm always the only person who is unprepared, and the Professor is always cognizant of this fact
  • I always decide not to study in the buildup, and completely wing it (c'mon, dream me! Get it together!)
  • The exam is always "high stakes" -- meaning there will be very negative consequences if I don't pass.
  • The exam room always feels like it's oriented incorrectly -- this one is hard to explain, but do you ever walk into a room and everything is oriented right-to-left instead of left-to-right?
  • I always wake up right as time for the exam runs out, so I never find out the results

And for what it's worth -- I did very well in school. This never happened to me, so I don't know where this one comes from, save for general preparedness-anxiety.

Sometimes I wake up and read up on the topic ... for next time.

What about you, kbeans / Lemmings? What haunts your sleep?

Which browser do you use on iOS? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I use Userscripts across iOS Safari and MacOS Safari via an iCloud folder accessible to each. Has made life much easier for me on mobile.

No, officer, I wasn’t on my phone.

Reddit communities with millions of followers plan to extend the blackout indefinitely in c/[email protected]

Good -- I hope they do. But more than that, I hope that the userbase doesn't return.

I don't care if they choose kbin/Lemmy/Squabbles(?)/Pr0nhub Comment section/Whatever or a combination of those things -- but I hope they don't return to Reddit.

This is an exciting new opportunity for the internet, imo. Why rely on a single point of failure?

Can't wait for his next project -- Christian is a class act, and Apollo was the only thing keeping me on Reddit.
