  • What book(s) are you reading right now and recommend for others?

    Jump

  • Re-reading Shirley Jackson's "The Haunting of Hill House" because its the best haunted house novel ever written.

  • A reboot of the X-Files but this time Scully is always right. Everything has a totally rational explanation and Mulder slowly loses his belive in the supernatural.

    Jump

  • My head canon is that Mulder applied for Blue Rose membership but was too loosey-goosey for Gordon Cole to hire him. Cole would've hired Scully in a heartbeat.

  • What is your favourite less well known app/software?

    Jump

  • 7-zip is now cross platform. There used to be a linux implementation called p7-zip but its not necessary any more.

  • Locked

    Why am I having back pain nowadays after peeing??

    Jump

  • As everyone else has said: kidney issue. If its an infection (you should definitely get this checked out), you're going to need antibiotics. Drink a lot of water - like, a lot - and introduce cranberry juice to your drinking habits (won't fix the infection but there's some evidence its preventative).

    If its a stone then get ready for the worst pain in the world but also drink a lot of water to help break it up/aid its passage through.

    TL;DR - get a GP appointment and start drinking a fuck ton of water.

  • Thanks bro

  • Nobody has to ask anyone out, its not compulsory. Women do ask potential dates out, so do men. Its pretty irrelevant who the one doing the asking is - the point is not to put the onus on one gender but that if you - whoever you are - don't ask, then you'll never know.

  • Hi, no, do what you want.

  • Is it expected to drink alcohol on first date?

    Jump

  • The only rules that matter are the ones you and your date agree on and largely revolve around where it is you decide to meet. There's nothing wrong with either of you having a drink if you're somewhere that serves alcohol. There's a lot wrong if either of you go on a bender. There's also nothing wrong with drinking a soft drink too. Or doing an activity based date rather than a food/drink oriented one.

    Just communicate openly with each other before the date with an eye towards your dates feelings/perception of safety.

  • Is it okay for gay people to call ourselves homophobic slurs?

    Jump

  • For you personally to use that word to describe or allude to yourself and only yourself seems like something thats totally your call.

    I do have to say though that encouraging someone else to use a word that is (or was once) a slur - especially if they are not gay themselves and therefore cannot possibly be reclaiming it - feels like a regressive and fairly crappy thing to do (assuming that they are straight).

  • Introducing the Fediverse: a New Era of Social Media

    Jump

  • It's a great video but it overemphasis the ubiquitousness of interoperability quite a lot. But its still good to see a well designed campaign video on the subject.

  • Honestly, I am not trying to bait you or troll you or anything else when I say this but if you equate a simple request for context with toxicity you're clearly not approaching this realistically or rationally.

    You might well be right and you've been treated very poorly but literally no one on this thread apart from you can ever know that and no one is just going to take someone's word for it.

  • But you expect everyone to immediately take you at your word without providing any context whatsoever.

  • When we microwave in our house we say we're going to "zap it". What do you say?

    Jump

  • Blast it.

  • Why should I continue to financially support the development of Lemmy when the developers operate .ml, an instance that is a prime example of arbitrary censorship?

    Jump

  • "that option because just goes to desalines"

    Who is the developer of the software. How they choose to develop Lemmy is up to them - you do have a choice though. Support them or don't. What no one who donates has a choice over is how the developers choose to use the development funds they receive.

  • Why should I continue to financially support the development of Lemmy when the developers operate .ml, an instance that is a prime example of arbitrary censorship?

    Jump

  • Not the point. The issue OP has is with the instance .ml - if they are donating to the developers then they're contributing towards development costs which affect both .ml and every other instance. If that's too much of a hurdle for them, maybe they could switch to donating to their instance admin.

  • Why should I continue to financially support the development of Lemmy when the developers operate .ml, an instance that is a prime example of arbitrary censorship?

    Jump

  • If they had developed a centralised bit of software such as Twitter or Reddit you'd have a point. In that case you can't support one without the other.

    On a decentralised bit of software you can support the developers and spend your time on an instance they have no control over. So supporting the developers for development is not the same as supporting any particular instance - thats why a lot of instances accept donations too.

  • I am having a weird experience on the Fediverse.

    Jump

  • Probably not federated across yet. BTW - you're better using the right structure for linking to communities in post:

  • I'm around your age and whilst I have friends who are around your blind dates age, I would never consider a romantic relationship with someone that age. Its not the number of years so much as the generational thing. I have kids older than that and that's where it goes into weird territory.

    Everyone's different and you do you etc but I'd ask your daughter at the very least to inform the other half of this date how old her date is going to be.

  • Chatting on Lemmy? Is it a thing?

    Jump

  • Gonna be that guy and mention an alternative - Schildi Chat available for web, desktop and Android. Its based on the Element apps but with some extras. For example if you use the 'Next' variant of the Android app, Spaces work as intended.

    Are there any lemmy communities that allow criticism of transgenderism?

    Jump

  • You're a bigot who is on a platform that doesn't tolerate bigotry. Off you fuck.
