Probably my wheelchair. It’s a pretty nifty little chair that has quite a few unique features. Also I would need it to get there anyway. Otherwise maybe one of my drawings.

This is a great suggestion. It’s a very useful thing to have. People are always asking me for help with things, I’m the only one with tools I guess and I only have a small box, mostly cheap stuff from harbor freight. But it works!

I’ve relaxed with it quite a bit recently. But I still like having them on me at all times. There’s times I like wearing it. Especially certain places like the doctors.

I leaned no one on Lemmy are as helpful as they seem. Nor as nice… I gave up on trying to run my own instance… My life is too busy and hard to find time for this anyway…

I ended up just starting over…

Some people think it’ll work just extremely slowly! Lol we’ll see I guess.

Some people are extremely skeptical, while others encourage it strongly. I’m an update this post later with how well it works. I’m not too worried about it, because I’m literally expecting to be the only user. It’ll probably run just fine for my purposes, but I’m not expecting to use it as my primary account or anything. Really it’s just an experiment.

I’m attempting with Lemmy Easy Deploy now. I tried a couple other methods already and failed. If I fail this time then I’ll have to try yet a fourth or possibly fifth way. But I think I’m out of options at that point lol. I’ll update this post if I get it started.

build the latest version yourself using Lemmy’s provided Docker files.

I’m attempting to compile 0.17.4 on a Raspberry pi 3 right now. So far it’s been basically frozen since 10am eastern. I’m not sure this option will work. But with that in mind I might try again with 0.17.3 if that means I don’t have to compile it.

I wish I could. The whole computer is completely frozen! Just the mouse will nudge a little very very slowly. I don’t think I can get another terminal open. And yes it’s very slow hardware. It’s a raspberry pi 3.

I’m trying to figure that out actually. I think ideally end to end encryption is important. No mega corporations like Meta. Being able to send pictures, videos, and pdfs. Being able to have calls both voice or video. I’m not sure any messenger has all of these things, but I’m on the hunt!

I’ve done this using Google voice. But they’re probably other options out there.

Maybe Element is more your thing then?

Right! I’m enjoying all these FOSS alternatives lately. I really hope they’re here to stay.

I’ve wondered something like this in the past. It’s a super interesting theory. Especially the more you think about it. There could be a huge intergalactic society out there. But then again, we’d probably have observed something by now.

Good to know! Thanks!

I still don’t understand what it is or why is there…
