They could have bought second life a hundred times over and at least had something that worked (albeit poorly).
There’s so much optimism in this post. They’ll just nuke your house from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.


Not with FreeTube.


Just like one of my former housemates. He lasted less than a month before he was forced to leave.
I played for a while, thanks to Jingles. Never really grabbed me though.
Our old cat would snick my wife’s nostril with his foreclaw to wake her each morning.


I agree. I looked at tailwind and couldn’t believe it was so popular. It defeats the entire purpose of CSS, and returns web dev back to the early 90s. Just stupid.


But it’s cheaper for the studios. That’s why it’s here to stay - until something cheaper comes along.
I use FitoTrack, which I found on FDroid. It’s reliant on third parties (Mastodon, etc) for sharing, but it does all that.


Thanks, looking into it.


It receives from Mastodon, but I’ve yet to have any of my wafrn posts show in Mastodon (or elsewhere on the Fediverse) despite being mutuals.


The Fifth Season by N. K. Jemisin.


I thought something like that had happened when I first read Cloud Atlas, but nope - that’s just how it’s written. I loved it once I understood.


In Oz, they certainly fucking do.
Went camping, set up the public BBQ, lit it. Vegan comes along and insists that we can’t cook meat on it because it will contaminate whatever she was cooking.
She turned a particularly interesting shade of green when I reminded her that it was public, had been used by a bajillion meat eaters, and meat contamination was the least of her worries - given druggies and drunks would piss on it in the wee small hours every public holiday.
She left soon after.


Except all those times where you learnt how to do something when you set it up years ago, and haven’t touched it since because it just bloody works. Then when you need to upgrade to a new machine you have to learn it all again.
Been using Linux for thirty years and it still happens.


Nice work, but I’m curious if you checked out Novel Writer (https://novelwriter.io)?
Guns don’t kill people. Cats do.


It has all of them, but it’s bare bones and doesn’t scale well. The instance where I have an account regularly falls over - sometimes for months at a time. Most of my friends there haven’t returned.
I don’t feel it’s currently a viable Facebook alternative, and it would need monumental amounts of work for it to become one.
I showed my wife the before and after of my home pages. She said, “They’re the same.”
Happy.
