I’ve done the 16 hour day for a music video I was directing. Low pay, but tons of fun. Wouldn’t do it again though. I try to plan my shoots out much better now.

I usually got down voted for opinions that I held on topics like cryptocurrency. There seems to be hivemind mentality about certain topics and going against the grain on reddit is not allowed. There has obviously been a lot of bullshit around that topic specifically, but I never took the downvotes personally, I just assumed people were being to dense to try and have a reasonable discussion.

Honestly, I’ve just been buying the jars at the grocery store haha. I should get into stuffing olives or just pickling things in general. It’s a thing I’ve always wanted to get into, but never really properly allocate the time to do that sort of thing unfortunately.

Lately I’ve been on a stuffed olive kick. Not proud of this, but crushed an entire jar of jalepeno stuffed Olives yesterday. Also really love doing Avocado with Balsamic, and regularly put that combo on wheat toast. It’s a great easy breakfast as well as super healthy and delicious.

I haven’t really dived down the customization rabbit hole for linux yet, but I’ve been poking around, and after seeing stuff like this tons of the stuff that was on UNIXporn, it makes me want to seriously try out some of the other DE’s that are out there.

I think people are used to a web that’s solely focused on viral content as opposed to deeply engaging content. For that reason people don’t think their contributions are valuable and decide to not post.

The truth of the matter is actually that real communities are dependent on the non viral content. So it’s important to reframe how we act in a more tight knit web community and treat it more like a party than a competition to have the most viral piece of media.

The sooner we can get back to casual conversation as a means for real community building, the sooner we can get away from the perpetual viral doom scroll environments.

Same experience here. Definitely feels high priority based on my experience so far.

This is insane. If I had the space and patience, I would totally make something like this.

Did you follow some sort of guide on the web or did you wing it?

Wow. I’m shook that you chose this passage. It was literally my favorite passage in the first portion of the book.

My jaw dropped when I read this and I took a photo of it and stored it in my phone. I have an album of excerpts for quick reference and this was one of them. Love that this resonated with you as much as it did for me.

And yes… all this through Lemmy makes it seem like it is truly the first step in our collective heroes journey. We just have to return to the centralized lands to tell of the federated and decentralized lands ;)
