The fediverse has been feeling really good lately. It’s actually getting hard to scroll to the end of the frontpage.

If it’s trains or planes on the other hand…

I do

They’re really finding ways to outdo themselves each time.

Well, that’s obviously because you can’t be decent and tall at the same time!

It’s just that I’m confused whether it goes in with the aluminum or unsorted trash, so I never throw it out.

Welcome to the fediverse! We’ve got Star Trek, Linux, and seasonal beans.

I love my CalcEs simulator app.

This shouldn’t be as relatable as it is…

That’s not how you put a CPU in a socket, silly article!

I thought this was about the UK.

Not detains, kidnaps is the word you were looking for.

I run my own matrix server, too. I’ve never had any issues with updates. Honestly, I just pull the new docker image without thinking twice about it. It is risky, of course, but I have daily automated backups, so I’m not too concerned. Personally, I felt like setting up a matrix server for the first time was the biggest pain in the butt. It’s extremely convoluted with very poorly written documentation that is often outdated or incomplete. After I got through that, it was smooth-sailing from there. Setting up mautrix bridges one you got Synapse to work is actually really easy, though.

These greedy companies never cared about any petitions. My only hope is some powerful legislature putting a stop to this, like the EU.

For some reason, the domain name does not resolve with quad9 :(

Well, affordable for the high quality they deliver, but not as competitively priced as some cheaper crap on the market. Yeah you get what you pay for, but you do have to expect to pay premium prices to Valve (for equally premium devices).

A very rewarding part of getting into 3D printing is that after the initial purchase, I started repairing things left and right like a standing mixer for my grandma or a thread adapter for my partner. I didn’t picture just how many things could be saved and how many purchases would be avoided. I’m always glad to be able to print some niche thing for under a euro worth of material that would otherwise cost 30€ or so and only be available on Amazon. I do realize the irony in having to make a non-insignificant purchase to acquire such a device, but it did open up a whole new world of making things on my own.

We don’t all live in the same neighbourhood.

My immersion is ruined.

Our exam system supports multiple choice and, indeed, collecting that part automatically. (We can still go through the boxes recognized as tick or blank en-masse to check for recognition mistakes.) However, they’re only allowed to make up 20% of an exam according to university-wide rules.

Yeah, but not as much as Beethoven
