So....I own a .com domain that's really, really good as far as being lemmy-related (it has lemmy in the name).

Not exactly a s self-hosted question, and I'm an old geek so I can arrange hosting and set things up myself when I have time, but anyone have a guess as to my traffic costs if I decide to turn it into a federated lemmy instance and open it up to the public? Just looking for thoughts and opinions.

"Don't try too hard (in my career). I don't want you to be disappointed."

...from my mother.

Here in Canada we just double it and add 30, because it's close enough generally.

Maybe if he would stop fucking ruining everything about the site...

I just deleted my 12 year old account and removed by bookmark for Reddit. My current main account will be deleted soon.

Maybe he's just really not good at running a social media company.

I stole my friend Andy's plane, flew it and crashed it into the forest. I survived and hiked out, and he was extremely angry.

In real life, Andy doesn't have a plane, and I don't know how to pilot one.

I bought an electric field heater for my dynavap, so that's good.

Don't care. I won't be commuting 3 hours a day.

Don't forget the hidden cams. That's part of why we don't use AirBNB.

The last Lassie movie was in 1994, and yhe oldest dog ever was 31, IIRC. Soon we will be free...

Pretty sure we'll be better than fine.

Wow. Could you have stated this any more like a douchebag?

:D

Incompetence.

While Mike Rowe is kind of a piece of shit, he did say one right thing: "Stop looking for the “right” career, and start looking for a job. Any job. Forget about what you like. Focus on what’s available. Get yourself hired. Show up early. Stay late. Volunteer for the scut work. Become indispensable. You can always quit later, and be no worse off than you are today. But don’t waste another year looking for a career that doesn’t exist."

There is no perfect job. There are jobs you make perfect for you. If the job you are in prevents that, you move on. Never wait too long for a promotion, as you can promote yourself by having the strength and will to find that promotion at a different company.

With that much money you can have a charity blow you!

Well, at least you won't be on an imploding sub.

I guess I should have created a resignation letter when I abandoned /r/skin.

Rank incompetence, starting from the top of the organization.

1970 gang unite!

I'm pending subscribe now!

But really just the commercials on TV.

Really showing my age here.

I'm kind of specific.

Unless I purposefully want to hear sound, my devices are muted 100% of the time. If I am listening to something, I wear earbuds with over-ear hooks, so that one of them can sit partially out of my ear, so that my hearing is not completely isolated from the world.

Though...autistic.

Defederation is too drastic.

Would it be possible instead for either communities to whitelist the bot if the wanted the content, or to speak with the developers for them to include a purposeful subscription to it rather than shotgun posting?

I had to do both and it seems to be working. Hopefully it sticks!

Zombo.com. You can do anything at Zombo.com.

When I was single I had a lot more time and I like a clean bed. Washed everything twice a week.

Now that I am married, once a week.

They should hold a fundraiser...maybe mint some NFTs and sell them...

I have no issues whatsoever with someone who used to have distasteful or evil beliefs. I only have problems with people who have them now.

Change is hard. People who put the effort in and change their upbringing generally have my respect.

The one thing I've learned in my 35 years of corporate work is that rich people are absolutely not smarter, and definitely not wiser, than the average worker.

I'm about 90% Lemmy, 9% Reddit, 1% Tribel right now.

As soon as Lemmy has enough people and communities to keep me always reading something new that interests me, I'll be 100%. I've already abandoned subreddits that I modded. There's little to keep me going back.

I just know that I slept with an 8 foot tall version of Cher last night.

Install Ublock Origin. Seriously.

My grandmother went to the doctor during her cancer diagnosis and complained that she had a bump inside her ear that affected her hearing. The doctor investigated and there was an insect that died in there many years before and the skin grew around it.

In the end, it was not removed. They were cremated together.

I didn't. I got a computer in 1981 and just carried on from there.

For me it means that true pain is something other than physical.

Pain don't hurt.

Some people get it, but most don't.

Same. I've saved this image for years.
