I guess they all require you to earn the trust of either clients (solicitor etc.) or a community (teacher, councillor, MP (lol), church minister)

Yeah – I wasn’t expecting nature to make plastics biodegradable sooner than we did.

What app is this? (sorry)

un-biden

VGA is the Boomers and HDMI is the Millenials. Gen-Z is using USB-C.

There are some platforms like World Packers where you receive free food and a bed for helping out in places. But I guess that still doesn’t cover travel, insurance, debt, and any other long term payments you might have to make

Yeah. I have several quotes on my desktop which I’ve written to try to counteract my perfectionism, and one of them is

• Live tomorrow’s plan, today.

And another one is

• Sign up now, cancel later.

Welp, as long as they haven’t kept coming undone for those 50 years I guess it can’t have been that wrong…

I’m a perfectionist and I realized I’ve been making life too hard for myself. Choosing a low bar for success but keeping the ceiling high has felt like a much healthier approach.

Definitely agree with this one

I think that something like the internet archive – where the body of data is too large and important to store in one place – is where using a federated framework similar to Lemmy might make a lot of sense. What’s more, there are many different organisations which have the incentive to archive their own little slice of the internet (but not those of others), and a federated model would help in linking these up into one easily navigable, and inherently crowd-funded, whole.

I wouldn’t call what they’re asking for a subscription – it’s ransom.

That’s fucking stupid. That’s like paying someone for not killing you.

Eg. I use this for facebook

Or eg. for BandCamp I wrote a script that hides the play progress bar so that I can actually focus on the music instead of how many seconds of music there are left.

Sadly, OneNote. (I have a stylus)

Oh nice, never knew about thia. It looks like old versions of photoshop (v5 iirc)

Python is underappreciated

I really like qbittorrents built in search feature.

Speaking of which, user scripts. So useful at un-enshittifying the web. Or just personalizing it to scratch those little design itches that annoy you.
