My hero academia : P it’s actually a great anime and also a great TCG

Adding my hand 12+ years

Agreed. Also we all have our eyes on so much these days (we see ALL the news from everywhere) there is no way that doesn’t affect people. Plus here in the US, the divide between rich and poor grows. The stress of seemingly innocuous every day life has it’s toll and I don’t think a lot of people recognize that in them selves yet.

I totally agree, mental health for everyone even for people who are healthy!

Yeah I get that. I’m in the same boat about making friends. I’m great at it in situations where I see them everyday. But working from home… So I’m trying to meet up with a gaming group at a store once a week. Monday is my first official day so I’ll see how it goes

Thank you so much

This is very very true! I take medication and it’s great but it’s not enough. Mental health support (therapy) is so important

It’s different as I grow. But right now, affordable mental health support and a friend.

I moved to a new state and have no friends and work from home.

I’m trying my best but… I wish it was easier

Family started to make fun of my pronouns. I’m just tired of people choosing to be cruel for cruel sake. So I deleted Facebook, essentially cutting them out.

My mom refused to use pronouns and I’d given her 6 years to learn and grow, cut her out.

In the past, a coworker on purpose set up a birthday for one of my best friends and didn’t invite me. They made up super weird reasons why I wasn’t invited. I realized he was manipulative… I cut him out…

Another co-worker was a friend but then one day he wanted to start touching me. I don’t like being touched. I kept asking him to stop, he did it more. Til one day he pushed me into a cold case (we worked at a grocery store). I cut him out.

Regardless of who I cut out though, there is ALWAYS room to come back if they change and grow up.

I’m still hoping my mom will before she passes… : /

Came here to ask this… (Also love that movie tho)

I enjoy reading about this change because everytime someone writes something like. Look what x did. My first thought isn’t of Twitter or any social media, it’s: “who’s x?” (As in replacement variable)

So stupid to rebrand like that. Oh well, never used Twitter anyways

Yeah that’s what I grew up learning and my mom taught me that x is kisses o is hugs. Til that it’s seen and way!

I suppose it has to do with being stateless.

I just loved learning about lambda calculus.

I think the idea is to remove complexity by never dealing with state, so you just have one long reduction till you get to the final state…

But someone who’s more into lambdas etc should speak about this and not me (a weirdo)

I loved learning lambda calculus (though for me it was super hard)

Gender assumptions

So what I’ve seen, there are already a lot of home grown dating apps, the problem is that they don’t have a huge user base.

For example I joined a nerd focused dating app and got one message a month later (I also reached out to a lot of people).

So I think it can be done but the real question is how to generate a large enough user base to make it useful…

If a partner moved in with me they absolutely would help pay my mortgage. But I wouldn’t lie that I didn’t own the place. Just set standards of what I expect

Good question. Right now it just says 0… With my all but 2 users. The great thing about where I got my servers is you can choose one of two options 100mbps unlimited (which I use) or 1gps for the first 4tb and then throttled to 10mbps.

So far I see very little impact

I have both a misskey and lemmy instance. For both I used https://servarica.com/ with the cheapest summer deal Flying Fish SSD. It’s like 55 a year. (Or you can pay monthly but I’d highly suggest to save up and pay yearly) (kinda lie, I got a bigger one for lemmy but it’s overkill)

If you have never installed software before on a VPS (virtual private server) you’re in for a learning ride. If this is the case, be patient, don’t give up.

Misskey is similar to mastadon. You can also look into calkey which is similar to misskey.

The hardest part of setting it up was the settings. But since I already know Docker and whatever it was easy going otherwise.

Though I still don’t have email working… Bleh

Misskey you add relays. Relays are like lists of instances to join in the fediverse. You then block instances you don’t like.

Lemmy, you block instances you don’t approve and can set it up so you can white list as well.

Also important, lemmy doesn’t automatically add other instances. How it works is, any user on your instances has to subscribe to another using the full search key !blah@domain.tld then once ONE user is subscribed, everyone else can search it via keyword.

Because of that I created a bot that went through all my approved instances and subscribed to all communities in there. It stopped around 3500 subscribed communities. I’ll have to run it again sometime.
