Theres nothing better, they have a monopoly. Everything else is going to be a huge downgrade.

So to ease me into something that scratches that itch, I am asking for alternatives. Something interesting I can learn from during breakfast with my wife. Unfortunately alternatives are not great, they all lack something vital. Biggest issue is too few creators. So using Grayjay connected to different other platforms can maybe cover some of the need.

Read about cultural capital. The rich are nonchalant towards things that others have to adopt or learn. They are “naturally” adapted to it. Which means that they haven’t learned french, they absorbed it by living in France for some years. So they act as if it is nothing, it is just something they just do and know. They can easily spot someone who is striving to be one of them.

Unless its a knockoff

Maybe not, but it would probably grow immensly. The exodus from discord is pretty significant, and matrix is mentioned again and again. It does not have to be that many more users in % from Discord to make matrix a lot more popular than it is today

I am so pissed that Element or any other Matrix app does not support push to talk OR a minimum noise gate. If it did it would clearly get tons of new users, it would be pretty much no question which plattform to replace discord with

Yep, it is honestly kinda useful for certain tasks.

Is this the first step towards using local LLMs for anonymity? 🫠 Always rephrasing each sentence somewhat. Truly dystopian stuff

Obviously 1 and 4. I’d be happy and filthy rich in no time.

Maybe the US finally will have a lower infant mortality than Cuba. Not the way I hoped for…

Oof, ty for the info

I like this one, especially. The DPRK one is great as well

Pretty sure the Village People are not the original crew. Also it would be surprising if it were, considering their participation at Trump inauguration.

We bought some that are even more open in black metal, and some specialized hangers for different clothes. So that socks and boxers can hang without taking too much space

Currently we dry clothes in our wardrobe. We got rid of the dryer and decided to adapt our wardrobe to accommodate drying our clothes. So now we just hang them wet in our wardrobe. I am interested to know how much we extend the lifespan of our clothes by doing this instead

Not really, we have decent ventilation. A solution if you have this issue is to add a dehumidifier. It drastically reduces the time to dry, and you just have to empty it once it’s pretty full often a few liters. You can also set it to not run under a certain amount of humidity.

He was first sentenced in 2008…

For me: Door lock with fingerprint, code and physical key. Added autolock to it as well. So when I walk the dog and leave the home it locks automatically

Robot vacuum

Drying clothes in my “closet”, no dryer, just hang everything up in my open closet, it makes the indoor climate better, smells good, and I have to put the clothes away anyways if I had a dryer. So we have specialized hangers for different things, multi layered, hooks, etc. works great. Duvets etc. we use a drying rack for.

Inoreader with heavy filtering and very high signal/noise feeds to follow. I don’t need to know about sports, movies, etc. It also supports newsletters so that I can get newsletters directly in my feed. So that it has many condensed and curated articles.

Buffer for spreading my socialist memes to several platforms at once, why share stuff with just people on one platform? Creating class consciousness one meme at the time

Automatic dosing of detergent on my washer

2x pet feeders with desiccants

Water dispenser with UV and filter to give my pets high quality water all the time. Have to fill it every now and then.

All black t-shirts, same pants, same sweaters, same socks, share socks with my wife.

If something can’t be washed in the dishwasher, it will be washed there until it breaks. Knives are an exception.

Automatic lights

Automatic payments for all my bills

A charging case for my phone, no worries about having enough battery

The only real innovation after 1080p for TV was HDR, sound stuff, 60-120hz, and upscaling to 4k.

When it is spoken in Norwegian. For some reason it just makes women sound softer, warmer and even more feminine to me. Maybe it’s because of associations, no idea 🤷‍♂️
