I’m absolutely with you on that. I’ll never say it outright like “Hey friend, you’re trans” but I’ve had the conversation multiple times where I’ve said something along the lines of “Hey that was a super not-cis thing to say/do, do we maybe wanna unpack that?”
The prime dirEGGtive was meant to be broken, but it should be broken tactfully.
Have you considered doing stupid shit and used Bedrock Linux?
It’s great, but it’s still baking
Unlauncher changed my life and helped me break my addiction to my phone by using monochrome home screen with no icons so I didn’t get dopamine hits when I looked at my screen to open an app.
Tasker is wonderful for automating tasks
KLWP is great if you want to go full custom with your Homescreen and Lockscreen, allowing you to generate custom interactive live wallpapers which can act as a dashboard or as a launcher
For anyone who lives in Houston Texas or the surrounding area, Space City Weather is a phenomenal no bullshit, no ads, just weather app.
Dualshock 4 is great.
If you’re not gonna use it often and want a cheaper one, the Logitech F710 (wireless version of the f310) is great, just don’t use it for your submarines
Install the DEs manually instead of from metapackages so ,out don’t end up with their entire software suites being installed. Additionally, probably use Debian instead of Ubuntu if you’re gonna be doing stuff like that, less fingers in the pie make for an easier tinkering experience.
Reddit’s recent API changes making it difficult to moderate the communities I was in charge of was the final straw for me. Tbh I’m surprised the racism, transphobia, and rampant sinophobia didn’t scare me away sooner.
I’m digging hexbear and the lemmyverse, y’all are cool as fuck… mostly.
Try gparted on a liveUSB, you don’t wanna modify the partitions you’re actively using because it can(read: will) result in data loss.
If you’re willing to spend a little bit of time on it and actually know what’s happening behind the scenes, read the man-pages for fdisk and do it manually from a TTY, but for cereal, use a liveUSB and ffs do NOT mount the filesystems first
Icecat takes too long to compile
Been boycotting Starbucks for years, ever since they showed their workers how little they care by giving them a meditation app instead of reasonable work expectations.
Still can’t believe I wasted 4 years of my life working for that shithouse
It’s funny, but why?
Quite a few of the unhoused folks in my area must be bourgeois by that logic
So, the big thing with instability is that with Linux “Unstable” refers to “Constantly receiving updates” rather than “Breaks all the time”
In my experience, if arch breaks, 99% of the time YOU the user did it.
If you want a kinkless experience with it, keep it simple.
Arch ships with systemd, as such, it also ships with systemd-boot. Use what’s built, don’t add additional bootloaders unless you need the functionality they offer.
Gnome, Matlab, and VScode have wiki pages for installation and configuration, and Firefox is in the repos and is one line in the terminal to install (#pacman -S firefox)
For a first install, I’d recommend following the wiki to install instead of using archinstall to familiarize yourself with how to use and read the wiki.
I wash with plain water and a little bit of citric acid or vinegar.
Keep (unused) silica gel kitty litter in a mesh bag in your fridge to lower the relative humidity, I lived in a swamp for a while too :/
Edit: dry your silica gel in the oven every couple weeks, once it looks like it’s losing its transparency.
Wash your veggies when you buy them, dry them thoroughly, and store them in a sanitary environment; they’ll last much longer this way.
I regularly keep my organic veggies for weeks at a time before cooking them with no molds or rotting.
It also helps to buy from a growers market where things haven’t been in cold storage for months before getting to the store.
There’s a Call recorder on F-Droid that is in active development, it’s open source. High quality call recording requires a rooted device.
For me, I’d edit things like timing as well as whether a given cylinder/rotor is actively firing based on engine load, disabling cylinders under low load (eg: already at speed, idling) to improve fuel efficiency and maximize power output for a given amount of fuel based on load and whatever the task at hand is (eg hauling loads, hauling ass, or gentle driving)
Edited: I was really tired when I typed this and missed a couple very important words.
If I’m gonna have computers in my car, ideally they’d be arduino-like such that I can modify the code on-board as I see fit or replace the parts relatively cheaply if damage were to occur to the electronics.
Suckless philosophy. The less computerization the better. I wanna be able to fix the whole thing with a 10mm, a jack, and an adjustable spanner.
Currently I have a 92 Corolla, it has too many computerized parts and I’m planning to replace the engine with a carbureted 3 rotor and a manual transmission. Ideally, I’d also like to implement Koenigsegg freevalve as well.
If all goes to plan, it could handle an EMP and keep running, though I’m not a prepper or anything, i just want a fully mechanical vehicle because I understand mechanics, but adding computers into the mix muddies the water.
The only thing they block is the eyes, nothing is obscured otherwise, their own demos on their website show that.
I personally won’t be wasting my money, if I want to obscure my face I’ll wear a face mask and color contacts like I already do.
I have similar issues with bottom dysphoria, or rather did for a while lately it’s been better.
I recommend things like grinding and focusing primarily on outer course, keep your panties on, you don’t need to be naked to have sex.
If you’re curious and want to DM me you’re more than welcome, can’t guarantee you’ll hear back right away but I certainly have lots of advice that isn’t necessarily appropriate for an open forum.
