Rentlar,

8 ± 2 for your sake then.

What hobbies help you minimize or avoid navigating commercialism?

By commercialism, I’m aiming at a mix of spending a lot and sifting through bloated business models (e.g. this or that accessory/equipment, microtransactions, etc.). Feel like many can relate to this sort of commercial fatigue, and yet it creeps even into hobbies where one tries to unwind....

Rentlar,

Learn a new language using Language Transfer method!

Pay what you want, but the lessons are very well done and quite different than your textbook (no writing anything down at all). The teacher doesn’t push you to donate at all but I tell you it’s absolutely valuable and worth it.

The Distro Wars are good actually.?

If all the seemingly pointless discussions about which distro is better comes from attachment to a spesific distro and if a distro is just a way to interract with linux than all the discussion about witch distro is better etc. fundementally comes from a a place of love and appreciation for Linux as an OS....

Rentlar,

I haven’t minded the tongue-in-cheek jokes about distros since forever, but people who take it way too seriously, and don’t see that each distro has its benefits and drawbacks are kinda annoying.

I’ll just tell you about Japan… they will have “outside of business hours” ATM fees just because. Link to website

With the Postal Bank it is possible to carry around your passbook in place of your debit bank card to access your account. Even from an ATM that automatically records transactions in there which is kind of retro yet cool.

Edit: added link

Rentlar,

In addition to alternative webUI, on mobile you can use apps to have inline image previews in card view mode.

Personally I don’t like new Reddit/ card view but it’s a matter of taste.

If Sony taking something away that you paid for isn’t stealing, then neither is taking something that Sony doesn’t lose.

Not perfect but Linux is getting there! Certainly much better than before.

Rentlar,

Fuck, I feel this so hard…

“I’m going to get a bunch of chores done so I can try this new game out without guilt of procrastination. Or maybe try out a hobby.”

One set of chores later…

“Yawn. I’m out of energy to start something new.”

Rentlar,

Every middle-aged German man is named Thomas. No exceptions.

Rentlar,

Ok, good to know, I figure this instruction set can’t be converted 1 to 1.

Rentlar,

Cool. Do you know if this project will support PowerPC-era Mac OS X apps or if that makes any difference? There are a bunch of quirky and fun games that could avoid being lost to time if an “emulator” can run them.

Rentlar,

Give OP some slack, they might be making the meme on their phone and posting while at work. Gotta post it before the manager sees them.

Rentlar,

I usually set up things way differently between Excel stuff for myself and Excel stuff that anyone else is supposed to touch.

Just colour all the untouchable cells dark grey or black bg on black text, or put on a separate sheet entirely.

Rentlar,

Yeah that part of the guide is top-tier advice from the FBI and Bundespolizei.

Rentlar,

Everyone who helps foster welcoming and positive vibes on this little corner of the Internet deserves an honorable mention.

At highway speeds, tailgating 10 ft behind a 53 ft tractor-trailer will net you about a 39% boost in fuel economy. And further your fuel usage will drop by 100% after the trailer flattens your hood from a sudden stop maneuver!

Rentlar,

I’ve a solar normal watch. Having to plug it in every week seems annoying to me.

@cyborganism is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

E: I’m so unoriginal. Happy holidays everyone.

Rentlar,

Samir, you are breaking the car!

Listen to my calls, Samir!

Being in a temperate part of France sounds pretty great, especially if I got a room in Chateau de Láas.

Rentlar,

Not since July this year. I do remember looking at reposts with disdain when I was there, though.

Rentlar,

I’ll consider it a compliment for all of the Lemmyverse that my meme made you do a double-take of where you were.

Rentlar, (edited )

You reminded me of the main reason why I didn’t like Reddit reposts (it’s been a while). Just as bad were the other bots that took top comments from the earlier posts and put them in verbatim in the repost.

Rentlar,

Meme hoarders in preparation for a possible Meme Economy crash and recession?
