Just a weirdly mystical asshole looking for meaning in the meaningless, silence in the jumble of voices, sight in darkness, finding the rhythm in chaos.

2·28 days agoI find that my best writing happens within those hours. It is, after all, the witching hour.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's a part of your current life that your 10 year old self might not even believe is true if you travelled back in time and told them?English
2·1 month agoMost of it, specifically the not being strictly “Christian” anymore and the being queer/nonbinary.
Nano for low-level system crap (config, scripting, etc) and Obsidian/Typora/Insert WYSIWYG editor here for major writing. I’ll utilize LibreOffice if I need something done in a Windows-compliant way.

4·2 months agoTrump Humpers are generally evangelical, so I’m going to assume they mean a massive gathering.
Or a cancerous mass, which is what I’d consider them to be. 😂

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What beverage is pure refresment to you?English
1·2 months agoI remember when Coca Cola had a coffee flavor thing going on, I quite enjoyed that. Yes, I realize it sounds gross, but it was surprisingly refreshing.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•For those that homeschool, what do you find most challenging and what do you find most rewarding about it?English
8·2 months agoI was homeschooled until age 15, then I was placed with a Christian homeschooling group that met in an elderly woman’s home. Now, at 24, I’m still working toward earning my GED.
While I accept that there may be situations where homeschooling is necessary, I believe it should be heavily regulated. Ideally, a private school would be a much better option.
I was more or less a social outcast, and I got bullied by other students. We eventually moved to a setup where schooling took place in a rented church hall when things truly hit the fan. The head “teacher’s” secretary’s son once accosted me in the bathroom. When I reported it, I was reprimanded and threatened with bad grades.
It was a creationist program using PACE—Packets of Accelerated Christian Education—with the Bible as its core curriculum. We did eventually get a new Physics teacher who would occasionally try to sprinkle in tidbits of common sense, which was nice.
All in all, it was a total waste. Who would’ve thought that telling a kid they’re going to burn in Hell for not understanding a math problem would mess them up?
TL;DR: Homeschooling isn’t a solution.

2·4 months agoJust bought one of these today, glad to know I’m not totally screwed. It’s a nice little phone for the money, kind of a downgrade coming from a OnePlus Nord N30 where the screen came unglued from the case.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why do people recommend cachyos as a beginner distro?
4·4 months agoYes, thank you! Ubuntu, in my opinion, is not a beginner friendly experience. It also tends to break easily, at least in my opinion. I’ve had ongoing problems with Ubuntu, as soon as I installed Fedora all the problems went away.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How important is a DE to you?English
5·5 months agoGnome is where the heart is for me! It’s just so customizable, the extension framework is such a cool concept. And yes, I know, KDE has a lot of bells and whistles, and I think think that’s why I dislike it. It’s cluttered, Gnome is simple. I like the polish and the smoothness, KDE is nice for people who want more but I’m happy with less. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!

1·6 months agoSame. I used to like the thrill of shit breaking at the drop of a fart, but now I just want something that runs a good markdown compatible writing software.
This just completely horrified a whole table of people. Con-fucking-gratulations. Bravo.



UPDATE: I’ve settled on a Moto G 5G (2024), it seems to run LineageOS with MicroG well.
