Nice initiative. Small request: can you fix your community link so it's fediverse compatible and doesn't redirect to an external website?

What movie from your past are you completely nostalgia blind too? in c/[email protected]

Any old Jim Carey movie for me tbh

This I think only makes sense in a tipping based system though

Sounds ridiculous to me. If politicians didn't decide on the rail system because of elon, it's still a problem caused by the politicians

No idea tbh. I edited my message to fix my mistake too

Japan is on the verge of a $400 billion fire sale of U.S. debt. This could break the back of the Treasury market and devastate Americans’ finances. in c/[email protected]

They'd never do it if it'd hurt USA so badly. They rely strongly on them on many fields, including military support

I doubt iPhone is better, and it's marketing instead. Or it's a matter of time before they wanna go the data mining road. You can also get a fairphone and install a custom ROM

Men in their 40s, what’s one piece of advice for men in their 20s? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Not meant as offensive at all or any way to discredit you, but this is horrible/useless advice. Because humans mostly don't think longer term, especially with younger people. A LOT is about the short term satisfaction. E.g. a lot of people know alcohol is so damaging but the short term benefits are just so big

Anyone else lift or workout and drink? in c/[email protected]

Wow this is such a coincidence but I've recently started doing it. Drink a bit to be motivated to work out and drink a bit after too. I'm not proud of it, but at least it gets me going. I hope to reduce drinking gradually

What's your experience with Electron alternatives (lemmy.ml)
 

Electron is a widely hated framework on Linux, but what about the alternatives like Neutralinojs?

In their own words: In Electron and NWjs, you have to install Node.js and hundreds of dependency libraries. Embedded Chromium and Node.js make simple apps bloaty — in most scenarios, framework weights more than your app source. Neutralinojs offers a lightweight and portable SDK which is an alternative for Electron and NW.js. Neutralinojs doesn't bundle Chromium and uses the existing web browser library in the operating system (Eg: gtk-webkit2 on Linux). Neutralinojs implements a secure WebSocket connection for native operations and embeds a static web server to serve the web content. Also, it offers a built-in JavaScript client library for developers.

Do you experience alternatives like Njs to blend more in the desktop layout, install less junk, use less memory, are more compatible with Wayland,...?

Discord servers focused on addiction (disboard.org)
 

There are many discord servers that can help you overcome drug (and alcohol) abuse if that's what you want. Highly recommended to pay them a visit.

Is there a website and keeps track of what bad stuff big tech is responsible for? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm talking for example about Apple relying on child labor in China for cheap labour, being directly responsible for suicides in the factories of their Chinese partners, them sabotaging their clients phones to make them slower.

Not only limited to apply but also others like Facebook, Google,... Ideally the information should be presented in a simple and easy to get format.

What do you think is a proper way to advertise a community on Lemmy? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm looking for a way that's appreciated by the community and doesn't break any rules. I just created one that I think was missing here.

Why I created this community (lemmy.ml)

I created it because I saw that on reddit, it was one of the most supportive communities. I also read that more people became abusive drinkers during the pandemics and as alcohol ads are omnipotent nowadays, it just makes a lot of sense to have this community here too. Hopefully, people can find the support they need here to overcome this problem.

Sorry, my first post isn't too interesting, I just thought we needed this here too. Supportive communities like these make a big difference.

Related community: [email protected]. I would suggest to go to that one if you purely want to focus on your goal of not drinking anymore. This c/ allows you to talk about alcoholism more broadly.
