It doesnt tell us when he became homeless at all, he could have been homeless for 20 years

It doesn’t specify when he broke his back.

Feels like a lot of users there are more for the performative changes (Oooh look I bought a pair of adidas trainers & an off brand cola) rather than actually steering away from major US owned services such as FB, Insta, Reddit

When am I supposed to blossom?

From left to right i do a 180 lol depends what kind of games you play

Yeah I was gonna say. Loads of the guys I work with have pretty filled out home assistant setups with smart blinds, lighting, temp sensors, garage door controls etc. Theres a difference between having a smart house and getting random “smart” appliances like cloud activatable dishwashers etc

Could someone explain disroot & forgejo for me?

Out of curiosity, what kind of issues have you faced? I work with aws in gov and terraform is used for everything, I’ve not encountered any issues as of yet.

Whats going on re Lemmy & Firefox?

Please do explain here

1 gotcha for gaming on steam is anticheat enabled games. If you play competitive games where third party anti cheat is required often you will not be able to play them even if they say they support Linux on steam.

bruh

Yorkshire tea is the GOAT. Happy to see it has fans outside the UK

Same. So much focus is going towards moving people from tech giants, which are important, but so much harder to move away from. Smaller things like this still make a difference and are far more easier for people to switch from than say, youtube for example.

Mate… Theres maybe like 5 “git + singleword” commands that cover 99.999% of all of your uses of git. Its really not hard.

Wallpaper?

I’ve been with tuta using a custom domain for a couple years now. Started switching most my services away from Google et al for pro privacy reasons a long time ago. It just so happens that these kind of decisions end up with the same results as moving to EU based solutions.

I feel like for most people their email account is just somewhere their emails go. And trust me there are plenty of options out there. If Google Calendar etc is something that your missing, then look for a alternative calendar service rather than an email service.

Holy shit that is dumb

Its the only OS option that could farm engagement, as no one would react to him using windows or mac

Hopefully people actually make the switch though. Weve got plenty of alternatives to many big US tech services, but a lot of them simply suffer due to lack of userbase. Even things which dont require other active users (i.e non social media type services) suffer because people tend to go for what they know and what their friends have, regardless of any other options.
