When I die I hope it’s doing 2 of my favourite activities- sitting and doing nothing.

  • I want to explore Linux and coding more, and need recommendations

  • Thank you for the book suggestion, I had a brief look online and it does seem interesting, I'm going to acquire a copy.... if he can describe the inner workings of computers in a humorous way, and if I can maybe learn just one new thing, then I'm in! 👍

    Thanks again

  • I'm quite happy with Mint, but I do have 2 laptops, one for travel and the other I can use as an experimental playground.

    I think trying Arch will be out of my comfort zone right now, but I can see that as an option once I've got to grips with the basic stuff

    Thank you, I appreciate it 😀

  • Thank you, I think this may be what I'm looking for (also I had it bookmarked and had forgotten about it)

    Article on Shirley Manson, Rock Goddess...!

  • What's on your Christmas list?

    Jump

  • They never stopped being cool for me! I just love watching the oil rise and fall, it's very soothing 😀

  • What's on your Christmas list?

    Jump

  • I fancy a Mathmos lava lamp, either green oil with blue water, or something a bit warmer with violet or purple....

    As usual my mum doesn't know what she wants and neither does my dad (although my mum did suggest getting him some Baileys). My boyfriend hasn't decided on anything yet, so it looks like I'm going to have to do some last minute shopping

  • Utrecht public library [OC]

    Jump

  • Wow! What an amazing building, it looks like a temple or church

    I thought it was modern architecture at first glance, but the fact that it used to be a postal office, and it's over a century old...

    They certainly don't make 'em like they used to

  • Throw the gates wide open

    Jump

  • This is something I've discovered about myself lately and I'm now trying to tackle, and hopefully start to dismantle.

    I did a fuck up the other day and may have unintentionally offended someone (a combination of mental and sensory overload led to a louder than expected verbal outburst of frustration)

    I've put out an apology and have asked for an accommodation to help with the sensory aspect, but I'm still churning inside and over thinking because of my shitty social and communication 'skills'

    Thanks for your comment, it sums things up 'perfectly' 🤣

  • [OC] Atari’s Black Beauty

    Jump

  • Yes that could be it! I just remember it being amazing and futuristic pressing the buttons and zipping through hyperspace

    I can also remember being very disappointed that the Atari packaging art never reflected the game graphics lol (I was young)

  • [OC] Atari’s Black Beauty

    Jump

  • Me and my brother got one of these as a joint Xmas present, it came with a free game- Combat!

    I loved playing Space Invaders, Frogger, Empire Strikes Back, there was also a space game where you had to input coordinates into a gadget to then hyperspace jump and fight other space ships, can't remember what it was called but it was great!

    It's still at my parents house in the original box...

  • Faries are real!

    Jump

  • You can read up on them, and see some nice photos here on mander.... they're really interesting creatures!

  • Do you refrain from participating to a community if it's hosted on Lemmy.ml ?

    Jump

  • ....I hope I am not coming across here as being too extreme...

    Not at all, you've basically summed up how I feel, plus added something I hadn't considered which is what would happen if I was banned from .ml for a post or comment. I've got a few days holiday to have a think about it all and also ask the community... I don't want to make top down 'executive decisions' without consultation

    Cheers 👍

  • Do you refrain from participating to a community if it's hosted on Lemmy.ml ?

    Jump

  • Yep, it's something that has occurred to me, I've got an idea of which instance and all that, but I'd probably need to speak with the admins. I don't know whether communities can migrate over posts/comments etc and part of me is reluctant to leave all that behind... BUT, I've done it once from scratch, so it's not impossible

  • Do you refrain from participating to a community if it's hosted on Lemmy.ml ?

    Jump

  • I have mostly refrained from posting political art, even though I do really like a good caricature (I grew up on Spitting Image, and other British satire progs), and also political art is, well... art

    But, people come to see the nice pictures and chill out for a bit, which is fair, and it's good to have that as a community

  • Do you refrain from participating to a community if it's hosted on Lemmy.ml ?

    Jump

  • This is something that that bothers me..... I joined lemmy.ml around 3 years ago as one of the pirate subs on reddit made a backup community there in case they were banned.

    Fast forward to the api debacle, I started to use lemmy as a permanent alternative, and made 3 of my favourite art communities- abstract photography, collage and printmaking

    It's always been in the back (and sometimes the front of my mind) whether to move them elsewhere, partly because people commenting on their 'blanket ban' of lemmy.ml, and the fact that I sometimes feel that I'm on one of the 'pariah' instances.

    It's interesting reading the comments here, especially considering the art communities are laid back, without politics, and haven't had any issues (so far).....

  • 'Kaos' Canceled After One Season at Netflix

    Jump

  • Well that's a bummer.... I just finished watching Season 1 a couple of days ago, and was looking forward to seeing where they were going to go with the next one

    This reminds me once again to be extra cautious of watching any Netfilx show unless it already has a couple of seasons under its belt...

    ......not that it worked for The OA. Fuck Netflix

  • Manual hobbies - active communities promotion thread

    Jump

  • 👍 thank you!

  • Smart

    Jump

  • where did you know about lemmy and why did you start using it

    Jump

  • Created my account 3 years ago so I could still access one of the piracy subs in case they were banned from reddit, they used to have an alt community on lemmy.ml......

    I came over properly during the reddit blackout, set up the communities I most wanted to see over here (that didn't exist already), and have stayed ever since

    I like the fact that the posts have (generally) sensible comments, without 1000 replies of inane drivel to sift through, overall it feels like a nice quiet corner of the internet where I can recognise usernames and have a brief chat, then be on my way
