Self-hosted or personal email solutions?

I have a unique name, think John Doe, and I’m hoping to create a unique and “professional” looking email account like johndoe@gmail.com or john@doe.com. Since my name is common, all reasonable permutations are taken. I was considering purchasing a domain with something unique, then making personal family email accounts for...

As far as I know Gmail and others also offer using your own Domain with them. Maybe that’s easier for you.

Before Disney it used to be Star Wars because it has so much potential for any kind of story. You can go super science fictiony without encountering any kind of fantasy elements. You can have a western type setting, dystopia, magic, drama, comedy, any weird combination of them all.

Long Covid.

Being woken up by fireworks wasn’t conducive of healing, though.

I’ve used tt-rss in the past. Don’t know what state it’s in currently.

If you have Nextcloud they also have an RSS app.

Is there such a thing as split-screen grep?

I want to run a command and see all of its output on the left hand side, while simultaneously searching/grepping for particular lines on the right hand side. In other words, I want a temporary vertically split screen in my CLI, ideally with scrollback on each side of the split, but where I expect the left hand side to be...

I usually solve this kind of problem by piping to less or a logfile and then just searching in there. You can get it to refresh new content by pressing the End key twice. Or maybe less just needs the -f flag or something similar. I’m too lazy to look it up.

Only complaints I have with Nextcloud are that it’s slow and updates suck over the web interface. But apart from that it has been reliable. I’m not running it through Docker. In fact, my installation is so old that the database tables still have an oc_ prefix.

For protection against ransomware you need backups. Ideally ones that are append-only where the history is preserved.

Netflix had the one explaining the human body. Maybe they have the history one as well.

You better start believing in cyberpunk dystopia. You’re in one!

Didn’t lose my smell or taste but after the initial flu-like stage of my infection was over I didn’t really get any better. And my doctor made it worse by telling me to power through and start working again. Nowadays I can only leave the bed to go to the toilet.

I’m about to participate in a study with some experimental treatments. Stupid thing is that I have to do an exercise test at the beginning so that they can measure the effectiveness. I took a shower last week and that’s left me in pain that will persist over the next few weeks. I shudder to think about what that exercise test will do.

But Portal taught me to do everything for science.

I like it to keep track of communities that don’t have enough members here to be very active. I don’t participate in the discussions, but it’s good in case some news come out that I would miss otherwise.

Lemmit.online is also good, because it actually lets you know that it’s mirroring reddit. There was another instance that was mirroring reddit including comments, without any indication. I started “participating” in the discussions until I caught on to the fact that I wasn’t getting any answers or up- or downvotes because it was just full of bots. It soon landed on my blacklist.

That’s why God invented OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for all your stable rolling release needs.

Threads should be Lemmy compatible. So in that sense Facebook already has an instance. The result is that many instances blocked them right away.

In the end I think this will all grow organically. Some companies might opt to host their forums on their own Lemmy instance. But that shouldn’t keep other instances from having their own communities about the same topics. More or less like it already is today.

And there already is drama with the non-commercial instances. People will gravitate to the communities they like and stay away from those they don’t. That should always be the case.

Just yesterday I started watching a new anime on Netflix which is about cooking food from the monsters killed in a dungeon.

No matter how much experience you have as a pilot. You should always use checklists for routine operations and emergencies.

18+ What's your favorite episode of MST3k? (lemmy.world)

I remember one day hearing my father downstairs laughing his ass off. Went down to see what was so funny to find he had just discovered Mystery Science Theater 3000, and was losing it watching The Giant Gila Monster. I sat down to watch. I didn’t really get it then, but I’ve been a fan ever since.

Very strange. I would contact support about this.

Does it also happen when you start a new game?

I see this as well. But maybe it applies only to your own instance where you are an administrator. I will try locking this post for comments.

BTW: It only just now arrived at my instance.

Edit: Yeah, it isn’t stickied at lemmy.ml/post/9847234

My favourite book is Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. My edition has a foreword about how Lewis Carroll wasn’t really a pedophile. He just had so many pictures of naked kids, spent so much time with them and wanted to marry the real Alice while she was young solely because he had soooo much love for children. Not in a creepy way at all. No no, not at all creepy.

I just use the filters. Manually sorting everything into containers is too much effort for me.

I’ve seen so many audio changes on Linux. But Pipewire is the first one without any negatives.
