I’d just like to state in an aside from the conversation: Maybelline sucks. There are better drug store brands to put on your face.

She/Her. This is the part where I say the typical things like I’m not good at describing myself. I love to play guitar and play non-competitive computer games. I’m fairly passionate about the FOSS community. I’m hoping that this will lead me toward more friends :D

Open Source@lemmy.ml•how much do you donate to the apps you use?
3·2 months agoSounds cool. I do like the idea of sourcing it from the package manager, because honestly there is an insane amount of packages that go into a modern distro and knowing them all is either impractical or impossible. Something like this would also be nice for charity donations as well. It might exist for that, but if it does I’m unaware of it.
I mostly wear dresses as I find them to be the most comfortable option, and I’ve only bought them with pockets for a long time now. No pockets? No sale.

DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Guide to change your email service - updated with stats on our impact so far!
1·2 months agoI have had a mail.com address for decades. It was my first e-mail address, and using a 3rd party client for it, I have had zero issues. I don’t really use it much anymore since the novelty of having a mindless.com address wore off a loooong time ago.

Around 2004 I had just recently graduated a shitty tech school as a DBA. Soon after I got a job via my father for one of his college buddies. My job was to convert old cobbled together FoxPro into something relatively modern. I was also hired simultaneously to the same company as a Java web developer and had to combine the two. I spent 2 hellish years there and haven’t touched code since, which sucks because I used to really love programming.

5·2 months agoVarious kinds of places used these. There is a drive thru liquor store near me that still has one. Surely cheaper to keep that than installing anything new when ringing a bell works just as well.
Maybe it wasn’t obvious, but I was referring to the runtime of the Javkie Chan movies.
I… what? This is so incredibly far from where I stand on the matter that I can’t relate at all. Give me the gift card, please. I’ve never received a gift card that I didn’t use within a week.
It covered Rush Hour and a portion of Rush Hour 2. Not 3, because the city is no fun.
I learned that as someone with an American accent, the best way to impersonate Michael Cane is to say “my cocaine” while attempting to speak like like him.

The Xbox runs the og XBMC. It is still my media server after 20ish years. Having to use FTP for it is kind of a pain, though. Upside is 500gb hard drive with old Xbox games and every emulator game I’d ever want to run.





He chopped the head off of a whale, strapped it to the family car, and drove it home as the viscera dripped into the cabin onto his wife and daughter.
