  • What do people that are for the first time moving to a place where is snows need to know?

    Jump

  • My first time driving in snow ever was in January. From Columbia, MD, through DC into Arlington, VA. At 5.30 AM. Big truck guys we the most guys on the snow. I drove a FWD 05 Jetta and drive painfully slowly and made it. Patience and sensibility paid off abundantly.

  • People in their 40s and 50s with no children, how does it feel?

    Jump

  • 43 Male. I want kids but I am currently financially unsuitable. At some point though, I plan on it. I can appreciate being single and childless. I have done quite a bit of stuff, but, I have the urge to raise kids and have a family. It feels like there is a part of me not quite there.

  • which VPS do you recommend?

    Jump

  • One of the best decisions I made, two years later. 💪

  • Do you selfhost your own blog/website?

    Jump

  • I self host a Grav site among other things on a 15 Euro VPS.

    Also, I started with Ghost but the fact that they locked up the newsletter side of business to a single provider and were unwilling to rework things at the time made me walk away. Yes, I know you could go code side, and add others, but that was a complicated setup in itself. Grav works perfectly for me.

  • linux or windows?

    Jump

  • Permanently Linux since 2001. Debian is life.

  • What was the first song you played after you got the car you always wanted or your first car?

    Jump

  • No idea.

  • What’s the worst piece of technology you’ve ever owned?

    Jump

  • I changed cars in January and the car I previously drove, an 05, Jetta had a tape deck. I bought this to connect my phone. Surprised that it handled calls as well.

  • I’ve been locked out of PayPal for years because of their mistake

    Jump

  • Got locked out of my PayPal account but I apparently can't close it.

    A couple of years ago I was running a growing loans business on r/loans and the other one. One day, I got scammed. Loaned someone money and when it came to pay day, they reported me to welch out of the deal.

    It took 180 days to get the money I had on my account. I tried closing the account and PayPal would not let me. It's been years and all I get are notices of terms and marketing stuff. I try to unsubscribe and it keeps coming so I mark it as spam but Gmail does not care.

  • What is your favorite season?

    Jump

  • Summer. All year if possible.

  • Writers of Lemmy, what good character qualities/virtues do your main characters have that you don't?

    Jump

  • I write about bad guys. All my characters are bad guys. One is greedy and manipulative, whereas the other one is a violent sociopath, while the other is a womaniser and finally a thrill junkie who loves to watch people get beat up. I'm working on the aspect that the sociopath and thrill junkie are also serial arsonists.

    I don't agree with what my characters do, but they represent an untold story. I have little interest in making my characters likeable and instead more like the person they are supposed to be. Bad guys.

  • Grav.

    I am currently using this to do exactly what you are doing. I moved from Ghost cause of many reasons. Can share links in PM if you want.
