Well Mastadon is good for screaming into the void and hope someone shouts back. Lemmy is kind of like a forum type community where you already know someone is going to like your topic if it's in the right sub.

Yeah, been playing Enter the Gungeon and it's amazing as well

Imho, graphics don't make the game. There are people here still playing doom and portal. Even games like Terraria aren't too demanding. You don't need amazing graphics.

Ah yes, have they gotten rid of their tape drives yet? I'm just nitpicking these technological advancements and highlighting how fast these countries can move whereas our California High Speed Rail is taking fuck long.

Last time I checked, Anduril is a defense contractor who bombs people using drones.

I took some other classes in subjects to entertain myself and fill my schedule. In the disciplines of archeology, art history, and archetecture.

At my school, the STEM people see these classes and GEs as useless classes that waste their time and money. I only know one other guy like me who enjoy these classes and see them as a sanity break. Happy to know there is another guy like us out there.

There are plenty of other space companies that pay well and aren't run by sociopaths.

Mmm could you list a few? I feel like most are in defense. Unless you count the research side of the company. Like how Boeing bombs people but also does space exploration.

I should've asked this earlier before I did the chocolate buying but as the title says, any options for chocolate not made by slave labor?

I'm on Street Complete and I'm trying to differentiate between Concrete, Concrete slabs, and concrete lanes. There's a walkway that's just a normal concrete walkway, I didn't know there were so many designations for this.

I would like something secure (preferably locking) and not made using cheap labor but I can be flexible. Obviously the keybar magnut isn't locking so I'm here exploring other options. I didn't go with the nite ize nite binder because I hear those aren't durable. I've looked at carabiners but either they're not locking or too big.

So far the best contenders I've seen is the keybar medium Magnut which has about 18lbs of pull forcem

So I was out with my friend today and we had nothing planned. So I would like to ask y'all to suggest activities and just little adventures you guys would do.

List of things we did:

  • Searched online of things to do in our county and found some cool activities. Ended up going to a vietnamese lantern festival thing

  • Geocaches

  • Wandered around in a park because of geocaching

  • Tasting of water from the water fountain at the park

Interviewing for a part time internship for Entry Level IT. I am a full time student Comp Sci major and wanna go into networking, servers, security, so hopefully this gets me my foot in the door. I am a terrible soft skills person and really nervous. My friends told me to print out my resume and transcripts, I will surely do that. Anybody got anything else to suggest?

Update: I got the position! I honestly didn't even prepare for it, didn't even know what the company did. The comment that talked about learning to search things up was right on, they asked me what I would do if I didn't know how to do something. I answered "looking things up, asking others, and consult documentation." The company seemed really cool and is structured pretty much like Valve Corp in that they wanted jacks of all trades and it was company owned.

Thank you for all the helpful advice. It definitely helped me out, and hopefully, it helps others out as well.

I have a huge bag of filament waste. Where should I send this? I know it is only commercially recyclable in like very specific cases so stuff like PLA will almost never be recycled. However, I do hear of companies accepting filament and they sell back the rolls and stuff. I'm not looking to make a profit or anything, just gotta get this off of me and I want the most sustainable way to do so.

I know Florida, Texas, and other counties have tried and succeeded to ban books, I wonder how that is even legal since we have the first amendment. I tried doing research on this since Huntington Beach is banning books and people were petitioning against that at the main library.

I made a little post asking people to petition on the Orange County sub.

Are there any good resources for helping someone getting into Linux? One of my friends I never thought would get into Linux is asking me for help. He specifically is an advanced Windows power user. I also had someone who was a complete noob, even to Windows.

For the noob, I suggested LMDE and Kubuntu and they've been having some issues installing LMDE.

For the power user, I suggested the easy distros such as lmde, kubuntu, nobara but also told them if they wanted to jump into the deep end, arch is cool.

However, my suggestions don't even cover DEs, WMs or what they even are. I just wish there was a good guide out there. I think that's the biggest hurdle, so many options and not knowing what to pick.

Apparently my cousin's best friend works marketing for Squid Industries and is Lucas's gf. So they sent me some stickers and some other goodies. Thanks Ashley!

I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don't hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don't even use.
