How did you set it up? I've been wanting to setup forgejo in a docker container but wasn't sure how easy the process is.

Thanks so much for sharing! You gave me some good info to start looking into. I appreciate your help! I was getting a little weary of Proton when they announced the AI nonsense and now the crypto wallet really seals the deal. Doesn't feel good knowing my money is going to develop buzzword features instead of fixing the existing issues in their current products.

Do you mind expanding on this? I recently moved away from Gmail to Proton in an attempt to be more privacy conscious and don't really know of any alternatives. Even at a paid tier I only use Proton for their email services.

I would say I'm generally tech savvy but new to the whole privacy space. What better alternatives are there?

As someone who has previously worked in the wireless industry for nearly a decade this is unsurprising. I worked for one of the Big 3 at a third party retailer and saw all kinds of shady things. From aggressive sales tactics to hostile management and straight up fraud. I was constantly getting in trouble with upper management because I refused to "live in the shade," a term they used for committing knowingly unethical acts. The only reason I didn't get fired (despite numerous threats) was because my sales numbers were always up to par. Turns out treating people with respect and keeping to your ethics was an equally effective way of hitting consistent numbers.

I'm really glad you said this. There's a large amount of the general population who think trans and drag are the same, even people who are allies. I respect those who do drag and I can understand why they do it, but as someone who is trying to present as myself authentically instead of performatively it's almost detrimental to the cause when those who are outside looking in automatically equate the two.

When I came out to my family as trans, my dad's first thought was I was going to be "parading myself around like a drag queen" (his words). He voiced his concern about it, because he had no understanding that they are not the same thing. Typically when I come out to people as trans one of the first things they talk about is how I must love Ru Paul's and assume that I watch it. I've never watched a full episode in my life, and truthfully it's kind of difficult for me to watch it knowing mentally that's how people would perceive me if I come out to them.

And while I acknowledge that there can be overlap in the community it's not who I am, nor is it how I want to be perceived. I don't have the luxury of "taking off" who I am, nor am I trying to be a caricature of a woman. I'm just trying to be myself and I wish more people understood that.

This looks super interesting! I've been looking for a simple "cyberdeck" build for awhile now. I think this one might be it. It looks like there's quite a bit of room in the chassis, I wonder if you can fit a full Raspberry Pi in there with minimal tweaking.

You need to make sure your phone is very still before it appears. I usually will lay mine on a table or the top of a car and then tilt my head underneath it until it appears and when it does gently hit the button. I've gotten some pretty cool results from it like shooting stars and even the Milky Way.

I really want to like stract but I can't get it to give me good results. I typically search for programming related things and it has difficulty pulling up relevant information regarding things like documentation and posts regarding the issue.

Huh, TIL. I had no idea that was an option but that's super useful for things I need to type in on a device with no keyboard, or even things I can't access my password manager for. Thanks for the protip there!

I don't know if this is the right place for this but I didn't think it belongs in creative. My partner and I took this from our backyard! It was about two weeks work of work in total and we're super proud of it!

I read through the article and it didn't explain at all how studying quasars determined this. I wonder if there's a better breakdown as to how they were able to ascertain this. I know there's been some major announcements in the field thanks to quasar study so I'm curious as to how this ties into that.

[-] Myaa@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Omg this is super cool! Thank you so much for this!

This is incredible! It seems like there's going to be a noticeable change in the night sky! As someone who's just getting into astrophotography, I wonder if it's something I'll be able to capture.

I feel like this game kind of came out of nowhere. We got a few small announcements and then nothing major until close to the release date, unlike the insane marketing blitz that was FF15. Maybe I was just out of the loop.

Anyways I'm curious if anyone has any thoughts or opinions about it? I love Final Fantasy games but this one seems so different. Tbf I haven't played the demo, I'm planning on trying it tonight, but I'm curious what everyone thinks about such a major release.
