@fakertarians Even from a consistent right-libertarian perspective, a libertarian *should* be to the left of Democrats on abortions, trans rights and immigration (just like from that same perspective, libertarians should be to the right of Republicans on gun rights and taxes). These "libertarians" are mad at him specifically for libertarian positions.
@dansup it seems like lemmy can be that with the right skin. We also really need a federated alternative to github. Gitea is partway there but thinking also about how github is sort of a linkedin for programmers.
@lanodan many of the fancy rice cookers are capable of some pressure cooking because that apparently makes for really good brown rice but I havenโt noticed many large standalone pressure cookers (caveat I donโt live in Japan but I spend about a month there every year and maybe the rural part of Japan Iโm usually in doesnโt have as good of an appliance selection).
@ryanhoulihan one of the main pieces of advice I give to people from other countries visiting the US or planning on moving here is to basically not pay medical bills, or at least negotiate/drag feet/etc. At least people from other high income countries will freak out and act like it's a real bill.
Elon Musk and Taylor Swift can kick and scream all they want, but flight info is public information and it is your right to access it. The electromagnetic waves are beaming through your skulls as we speak! These are all public flights but I've seen private ones as well by listening in using my $20 RTL-SDR.
@hakan_geijer@HeavenlyPossum true although in my cast I just don't break my limits. I guess it's easier for me to keep to my own rules because I don't drink socially so much as with dinner at home. I think the "social drinking == less bad" rule people in the US believe gets things backwards. It's always in social settings where there's peer pressure to stay a little longer and drink a little more.
@HeavenlyPossum one year when I decided to swear off alcohol for 3 months after feeling like shit one New Years to see how I feel afterward, that was the start of me restricting the amount and frequency I drink afterward. I did lose a lot of my built-up tolerance over time.
@HeavenlyPossum yeah it's pretty awesome. I've been limiting myself to 1 12oz beer max a week and I switched it to every other week end of last year. The only downside is I can't really handle some high-alcohol beers I like, like Abyss unless it's just a tiny amount. I do sometimes get a 4oz taster of local imperial stout straight from the brewery.
@killyourfm The only way I make DAWs work (for me, Bitwig) is by extensively using control surface/midi controllers. But yeah, since my job is computers, I like to avoid computers as much as possible for hobbies. Hence me using film cameras at least half the time.
@killyourfm I challenged myself awhile back to record stuff just using its 4 tracks and only hardware stuff I have. As a way to take a break from using DAWs for everything. It was fun and I plan on continuing with it again.
