Sizzler!

I’m not saying that I agree with right wing transphobia, and I condemn transphobia, but sometimes, do you ever think that actually, maybe transphobia is a good thing?

That’s how your post reads

Can I post recycled wine?

My IQ goes all the way up to 11!

I avoid Youtube as much as possible, so that makes it harder

That being said, I use Dreaming Spanish for my native hispanohablante content. Plenty of content, and more every day. The biggest issue is whilst I love some of the content, quite often, I find myself struggling to stay engaged. And that’s the part I need to focus on. They have plenty of content, and I can find it if I go looking. I just need to make sure I do :)

My goal is just consistency. My spanish is coming along slowly, but it hasn’t always been steady. Sometimes, I just stop. This year, I just want to keep it consistent. At least some content, most days, even if only a short video.

I’ve been using my real name on the internet for 30 years or so now. I’ve hosted public radio shows, I run/admin several online LGBTQ communities and I’ve had newspapers articles done about my transition and activism.

It’s absolutely possible that someone with the desire could utilise that against me. But it’s unlikely and it hasn’t happened yet. And in the mean time, having to hold myself back and be constantly on edge about what I say and where I say it would impact my use of the internet in a way I don’t like, every single time I use it.

So for me, it’s worth the risk.

Iceland?

Though prices are high in Iceland. Their wages are also high, which offsets that, but if you’re coming in with foreign currency/income, you’ll feel the prices more…

It doesn’t really match my experience though. I’m one of those rare ADHD folk who has zero issues with sleep.

If you were born or adopted before December 15, 2025

Citizenship may have been restored or given to people who were born outside Canada in the second generation or later before December 15, 2025.

This means that in most cases you’re automatically a Canadian citizen if you were born

• before December 15, 2025
• outside Canada to a Canadian parent

This rule also applies to you if you were born to someone who became Canadian because of these rule changes.

If this change made you a Canadian automatically, but you don’t want to be one, you can apply to give up (renounce) your Canadian citizenship.

Adopted people are likely eligible to apply for Canadian citizenship through a direct grant for adopted people if they were born and adopted outside Canada in the second generation or later before December 15, 2025.

I like themed instances and would enjoy them more if the All feed were personalized instead of the same for everyone.

That’s what your subscribed feed is for…

But choosing an instance that fits you best isn’t possible

It doesn’t need to be the best fitting instance possible. It just needs to be an instance that lets you use and interact with the fediverse in a way that works with you. That’s why a lot of people use generalist instances. They’re no ones “best fit”, but they are also less likely to be bad fits for folk…

Some instances are themed, some are generalist. Because multiple communities can exist around the same topic/theme, the user based ultimately ends up in a community hosted on an instance that fits their needs, because if it didn’t, they would simply move elsewhere.

Which ultimately means that if you get instance banned from an instance that hosts a community you want to use, there’s a good chance you weren’t going to last long in that community anyway…

It will compile and install the module for you. All it means is that whenever your kernel is updated, the install process will take around 5 minutes longer than it otherwise would whilst it compiles the dkms module for you.

If you use the lts kernel package, your kernel updates will be infrequent.

If you use the regular arch linux kernel package, it will update every few weeks like it does now, and each time, your package installation process will run a few minutes longer due to the need to compile the driver

I’ve got one already, with pedals. But I don’t have dedicated space to use it, so it never comes out :\

The PS5 lets me play Gran Turismo with VR. and turn by using the gyro function on the controller, effectively mimicking a dedicated steering wheel by turning the controller itself rather than stick steering. I could use a wheel, but without a dedicated space to keep the wheel, setting it up and packing it down is just too much of an issue. Gyro steering gives me much of the same control as a wheel does, but without the hassle.

So gyro steering and VR together was a game changer for me. They were so amazing that I can’t play racing games any other way now…

But VR on the PS5 is basically dead in the water, so hardly any games support it, and gyro steering is basically unheard of in most racing games. So it’s pretty much Gran Turismo…

In theory it’s technically possible to use the PS VR headset on my PC, and configure gyro steering, but so far, the combination of getting them all working and configured correctly AND finding a game that supports it all has defeated me…

They all pretty much let you set the default view in your preferences somewhere

But you’re also betting that the economy will come back alive soon enough because without it all you have is a heavy pile of metal.

You probably don’t even have that. Unless you have your own vault, someone else is holding it for you, and if things collapse far enough, good luck ever seeing it

I’m not sure where you are in the world, but here in Australia, parks and beaches are always full of people on Christmas day!
