Alcohol.

I knew someone once who had this, she didn’t know until she got an x-ray as an adult. The doctor called in their colleagues to take a look at the scan because he’d never seen a real-life case before. She had her heart on the right side of her chest, was pretty interesting.

Have you even looked at any of the examples in SA’s case?

Yes, thank you :) It’s just that after writing it down and reading it back to myself, I genuinely realized it wasn’t a big deal. Life is unfair, but paradoxically it’s also equally unfair to everyone, although it can seem that your life particularly sucks. Not to take away from the genuine tragedies some people are experiencing, but sometimes it seems just writing it down can help you resolve the magnitude of the issue to some degree, and make you grateful for the good things in your life. This whole thread has been great self-therapy. Much love to everyone here.

“Uncle Tom’s Cabin”. So far very powerful writing. Just finished reading “Tuesday’s with Morrie” which is fantastic.

I use Jellyfin but I have family who can’t side load the Jellyfin app on their TV’s, so… Plex for them

A few years ago I downloaded a browser extension to stop showing me recommended videos, both on the homepage and on the side of videos. I can only watch what I’m subscribed to and what I search for - you’d think its a big sacrifice because you can’t discover as many videos, but in reality I’ve gained so much more of my time back and control over what I actually want to watch.

Also been using this for several years and can concur, simple, easy-to-use, never let me down.

MacOS with a tiling window manager for work, Win10 on PC for gaming and Linux on all servers. I would run Linux for work if Office, Adobe and esp. Outlook ran on it, MacOS with Yabai + SKHD is the closest I can get to a Linux experience while still being functional for work.

TLDR: Computers

I got super lucky being in the right place/right time. I started a company when COVID hit with the intention of just selling computers. The market sort of pushed me into selling computers for AI/ML which i knew nothing about but had a good background in Linux, so I could offer a lot of added services in terms of DevOps/MLOps, setting things up for customers as added value which my (much larger and more established) competition didn’t. This led to some enterprise connections, started selling servers, more things happened and 3 years later I have a full engineering team and we’re morphing into an OEM. There’s a lot I’m leaving out but if there’s one takeaway I can give, it’s that:

1. Never underestimate what you’re capable of learning by just putting in the time and work
2. Don’t de-value random things you’ve put time and effort into learning. Even something you were obsessed with as a teenager and seemed like a complete waste of time may eventually become critically important in your adult life.

Starting a business

Everywhere my man, I can tell you I’m nowhere near the US and have never been

My dude, I can’t thank you enough for this amazing piece of software. I’ve been waiting for an iOS Lemmy app for over a year now, and this is much better than what I expected/hoped for. God bless you.

Agree with this, sunk 3k hours into that game before i finally quit a couple years ago. It’s gotten progressively worse over time, what a shame.

“Woo-sah”

Its crazy seeing how much engagement there is on posts, I really like lemmy, even before the reddit influx, so far so good.
