Cake day: April 24th, 2023

  • I used to justify it with “I’ve had a shit day, I deserve to be able to have something for the convenience” - not to mention, I don’t have a car so realistically it was “Do I want fast food or not”.

    Then I started to realize that every day tends to be a bad day for me, due to a multitude of reasons. I live paycheck to paycheck (which is why I don’t have a car in the first place) and the amount I was spending on takeout was way too high.

    Now the only time I do so is on Fridays because my workplace lets us spend $25 on their tab just for joining the weekly staff meeting. Aside from that, I might order a takeout once, maybe even twice, during a pay period as a “congrats for making it through last month” but I’d like to even stop doing that ideally.






  • I feel like most people (assuming you’re not on Reddit) don’t really care, so long as you’re not being spammy with them (or not just reply with only an emoji).

    Every now and then I’ll tack one on at the end of a comment if I think that my tone might come of a bit more passive aggressive than I intended it to be, but most of the time I just see it as “I might need to rewrite this so that it doesn’t come off that way” instead.



  • Precisely, yep! It follows the same rules as subscribing to communities on Lemmy however - if you’re the first on an instance to subscribe, it may not pull the full backlog of videos - and at least one person needs to be subscribed for the instance to continue getting updates from the channel.

    Try heading to !thelinuxexperiment_channel@tilvids.com for example, and you’ll see Nick’s channel come up as a community and each video that they upload will be its own “post”.

    Note that when you lookup stuff on PeerTube, you have to use the channel name - not the uploader’s username. So the one I linked would work, but if you replaced the start with thelinuxexperiment it wouldn’t work, since that is a user and not a channel.












  • As far as I’m aware, none of the music services really have a direct transfer option available. You pretty much have to use a third party service to do so from what I found the last time I tried to do a major switch.

    Funnily enough, I feel like this is one of those things that are present day “AI” could probably help with, if it were integrated with these services. Realistically you’d just need something to do some OCR of images from your playlists, and match the results - I’m kind of surprised that’s not something Spotify, Google, etc have done yet.
