I just took an edible and it’s starting to kick in, but I still want to figure this out.

Getting stoned and getting the magic rocks in my homelab to do my bidding is one of my favourite ways to use up my time on this Earth.

looks like their product is intended to feel as close to Microsoft as possible

Maybe that’s why they picked a name really easy to mistake for another office software suite, to mimic Microsoft’s atrocious naming schemes :P

blind brothers and sisters

No gender-neutral language for our non-binary siblings? For shame, comrade.

but eyeing OnlyOffice because of their cloud service.

ONLYOFFICE ≠ OpenOffice

I don’t know about you, but whenever I’ve had schedules where I didn’t get two sequential days off in a week I’d tire out waay fast.

In your situation, I’d probably pick Sunday+Monday as my weekend. You get the extra for working on Sunday, and you get to avoid the stressed people on Mondays. It is nice to have one conventional weekend day off, the other commenters aren’t lying when they say working weekends limits social opportunities.

Here’s the link on Github. It doesn’t seem to be on the main F-Droid repo, only IzzyOnDroid’s, so I don’t know why the other commenter tried to link to it on the main repo.

I like Fluent Reader, it looks nice, can fetch full articles, and IIRC caches them locally for offline viewing, don’t quote me on that last one though.

When you post a link, you can add a thumbnail image URL! In the default lemmy-ui, it should be right under where you upload an image :)

Oh, I’ve never played CS 1.6 so I can’t directly comment but the main thing I hear is how different the mechanics are.

I imagine nostalgia plays no small role, as well.

They’re completely different games, but if you’re unfamiliar with the Counter-Strike series I can see how it can be confusing.

Counter-Strike 1.6 refers to the original game in the series, which ran on the GoldSrc engine. The “1.6” refers to the final release of this game from 2000.

The next installments in the series were Counter-Strike: Source (2004) and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (2012) which both ran on the Source engine.

Counter-Strike 2 was released in 2023, as an update replacing CS:GO. It runs on the Source 2 engine, which is to what the “2” in the name is referring.

Oops, I didn’t see that part of the question, my bad! I sure hope rice stays affordable, that and tofu represent like half my diet :P

Lentils and potatoes for sure, but we don’t really grow rice in Canada. There are some [examples] (https://chathamdailynews.ca/news/local-news/chatham-kent-home-to-canadas-first-commercial-rice-crop), but we get our rice from the US, Thailand, and India, as well as many other countries. I eat rice very regularly and I have no doubt I’ve never eaten rice grown on Canadian soil.

I got a new job, and the group chat is on WhatsApp, so I’m looking into running a Synapse server with a bridge to it. I really don’t want to have to use Meta’s apps on my phone.

From what I’ve read so far, it seems like it’s going to be the most convoluted install process I’ll have encountered in my self-hosting journey. I’m excited to tackle it, but also a bit overwhelmed. Which is why I’ve been putting it off :P

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick. I’ve always loved this song, it has a mix of different styles, from flute-forward chill sections to more classic rock sounding parts.

Oh and it’s over 43 minutes long. Before anyone says “oh but there’s part 1 and part 2”, this was a limitation of vinyl and not the artistic intent behind the piece. It’s one song, fight me.

For anyone wondering, lemm.ee is hosted in Finland, as per this post by the admin.

“BECs” refers to bacon, eggs, and cheese, for anyone who was wondering what on earth this article is about.

Sticks were maybe the first human technology and we’ve yet to top it to this day.

We’ve tried talking, we’ve tried percussive maintenance, now it’s time to take things up a notch and let these silly little machines know who’s boss.

Damn, either you were a really smart 13 year old, or you must have been super desperate and then amazed that that actually worked.
