Most people have already written the most things, being passionate and explaining well, but for me it is - I do not interact much, if I dont have anything new to add, I usually don’t, If I got interested enough to comment, then I must have something to speak on it, and if no one else has (I first search for other comments, If I find same stuff, I just upvote their comment and move on) then I am past a threshold where I can write something long.

Maybe I dont count, but I was a reddit mild lurker, I would check something like r/memes every week, and also r/linux with similar frequency, and learnt about lemmy close to reddit API stuff, and made a lemmy account sometime after

used to be blue (royal blue then sky blue) and now black (i am not a edgy teen, an adult) but still like sky blue

Maybe I am broken by all the physics thought experiments, but my image was very bare-bones

there is one more thing - unless you are using something like chaotic aur, or a very popular package, please pay attention to PKGBUILDS. These are essentially bash scripts which can (depending on your package manager) will run with highest permissions. They can do anything

I second this - for some reasons, my (almost) first distro was arch (first was a fedora for 3-4 days). Arch is great if you know what you are doing, you can have a lean mean compute machine

Is there any way i can host the whatsapp bridge but not the matrix instance itself, or something simpler. Even then, it does not really make my situation better. It would be adding one more layer between me and whatsapp, but not much more. As I understand, bridges help when you have multiple platforms, and you want to have one way to access them all, for me, only benefit would be the client would be free

I personally do not use them anything else now, i do have element installed, but when you have no one to talk to, you might as well write messages in a notepad

Whatsapp. I know signal, simplex, matrix, (a billion other things), etc exist that are much better, but where I live, no one uses them, for context, basically everyone, like if you have a phone, you use whatsapp, some government things even happen through whatsapp bots, when people say the word message here, they mean whatsapp. There are about 20-30% (among younger folks) who use telegram, but that is mostly for easier piracy, and larger file sharing (before whatsapp allowed 2 GiB, now they do it habitually). My mom has about a 1000 contacts, and less than 10 of them actually use signal (there are many more who signed up(there was another thing, basically when elon said “just use signal”))

At this point it is not worth getting everyone to switch, the best i have done, is just reducing the number people i communicate with (on whatsapp), and try to just meet in person

I disagree, gently, i like chains, they are fun, and sometimes creative, even the ones i know (like rick roll), maybe this gives a kick to my slightly troll-y side, sense it is harmless and fun (at least for me, fun is subjective). I even liked the thanks for gold, it is not like the gold means anything, it just makes the community feel more live

i dont really care about intelligence,as that is a very vague thing to care about, even definition may vary, but the second point is important to me

“Life is simultaneously too large and small, it is not worth spending time planning it”

yes, it was my “gamer” name a long time ago, and due to small(ish) size of fediverse, i get it easily, it is either sga, or some combination of sga and 13

Water (cooled to preference)

I recently wrote my thesis in typst, best choice i could make

I am sorry, I dont know how to do syntax highlighting in html, if it helps, can you please check it on codeberg (link in table of content and also mid text), there you can choose your preferred highlighting.

Yes, it is similar to aliases, I covered that bit in executing stuff, my problem from the times i had aliases was that sometimes i could not remember the aliases i had set (i had greater than 50 at some time), and for such reasons, there are programs like navi and cheats, I used to use navi, but then i had a different binding to call navi (ctrl+g by default) and this way I have only 1 binding, and that helps develop a great muscle memory. also aliases can only mimic the behaviour of Type or Exec sections, for others, you would need something else

and yes, the result is indeed graphical, I will add screenshots

Harambe, whatever happens, dont try to play with a child, that does not go well
