  • I need some general how to be a human advice.

    If you see someone crying in public, should you go ask them if they're okay?

    If they're obviously hurt, it makes sense you should, but let's say they seem physically fine. I'm stuck between wanting to help and not wanting to intrude on what might be a private moment where they need to feel some things.

    What do you all do?

  • So I ordered pizza because I feel dead tired and I realized far too late I clicked take out instead of delivery. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. Ughhhhhh

    @JesseSkinner That means I guess they both wear chain necklaces with padlocks and when you ask who has the key they just reenact the spiderman meme

  • So a last thought that's a bit morbid before I go to bed tonight but as I go to bed, I think about how I have a community that is good for me and I hope I'm good for them and that's kind of priceless and I do my best to tell them and I think they know and if I died tonight, I'd be quiet happy. This some Dashboard Confessional shit.

    @jake4480 For developing I've always found Windows hard for no reason. But honestly if I could redo what I'm doing I wouldn't be l buy a pi and repurpose an old but less performant pc or laptop. RaspberryPi had a lot of hype but depending on your use case and from an ecological point of view, you could maybe very well repurpose material you already have. For a peer to peer Google drive replacement, that would, I think, be possible.

    @Envel I'm reading from translated to French but I give very rarely money. But I do spend time and energy mobilizing and advocating and (in the case of Foss) building for causes I believe in

    @jake4480 Well, I'm using syncthing to replace drive, between my computer, my phone and an external drive connected to a raspberry pi as a starter. I use Joplin synced to that folder for notes synced between my computer and phone which has some shortcomings in UX but not too much in efficacy. I think the important thing is to think on what we want from these services and make sure that happens instead of trying to completely reproduce the same "product." If you want advice on anything, I'm here

    @jake4480 For me digital gardens overlap with in that they're independent sites & another way of using social media on the internet & handling your presence. Digital gardens being the idea that it's for you & not expected to be perfect, constantly evolving. That goes in line with what I'm getting at. But when I say digital homesteading, I'm going beyond social things. I mean, calendar/notes/todo list/back up solutions that are self hosted. Really totally owning your online presence.

  • My psychologist told me to make a visual list of things I need to do "recharge" b/c when my battery is @ 0, executive functioning has left the chat. And she said to make sure I include pictures. I made my best to include pictures that inspire a feeling™. And you know what? It works! I look at those pictures think, "what do I want to feel?" And that's how I had a short impromptu dance party, and it felt like an impromptu artist date.

  • I'm not sure if there's a term that exists for what I'm doing in this age of technofeudalism. There probably is. But a term I use in my mind is "digital homesteading." And I'm surprised how many people seem actually interested. It's, of course, all about making it accessible to non tech people.

    @finner Yeah. I can feel that on mobile that it's a little it's friendly than with a keyboard but so far it works. If it gets to be a hassle, I'll take a look at other options. I was actually much more worried about replacing drive without having to open my home network. I have a syncthing installation on a raspberry pi with a large external drive and that kind of took care of that since I don't want to crowd my phone. Have you tried any alternatives to Joplin?

    @finner I'm using Joplin and syncing it with Syncthing to my phone. I've only been using Joplin, mostly on my computer for a week, so I don't know yet if I'm going to discover some shortcomings as I use it more. There are scripts to migrate from Google Keep and I also moved my Google Tasks to it.
