I'm primarily interested in the opinions of people who are not at least one of male/hetero/cis; it's too easy for the privikeged group to delude themselves about how good they are behaving.
I personally don't think it matters much at all, except in channels that specifically identify that way. However, I am male, hetero, cis, so its possible I'm just clueless.

Be patient, and let the cat make the decisions. Food helps, but it's not enough, if you feed the cat but are not present, you are just feeding the cat (and who knows what else). We have had a few main pets that were strays. They make great pets IMO, they really appreciate the life you are giving thaem

I play keyboards, have a decent electronic piand which doubles as a MIDI controller. I like prog, the nerdier end of techno/electronica/hip-hop, and classical. LCD Soundsystem, Stereolab, King Crimson.

Music (but not a very good musician), other cultures and international travel, history.
I am looking for a self-improvement alternative to doom scrolling social media in my downtime. In the past, I have done mostly career oriented courses (tech/computer science), but I'm tired of those, want to branch out. Has anyone taken a MOOC class, not necessarily for any specific objectibe, that was especially good?

Really, this looks like self parody and maybe self harm. Anybody who's not already a True Believer is going to look at that and lose control of their vehicle laughing their ass off.

We adopted two kittens! They seem content at our home, and we get a little acrobatic clown show every day.

Their audience likes nothing better than replaying their greatest hits. They really don't pivot very well. Let them: it's self harm, shows how irrelevant they are.

- Control and privacy. The server does exactly what I choose, not somebody's business model.
- Once you have other users, it's not a hobby anymore. People are not amused by downtime.
- The w3schools.com tutorials have been good for me.

Just made one of these. I probably got the recipe wrong, but can confirm, it's delicious.

Seems like we always have cans of condensed milk left over from some holiday dessert, I want to try this one too. Sort of like the affogato except already melted.

Mmm, going to try that
Personally, I like: Turkish coffee, I received a cezve as a gift, Lots of crema (they don't call it that, but it's very frothy). Coffee soda. Double shot espresso in a glass of ice, add soda water to taste. Great when it's hot out. Coffee milk. Same double shot in a glass of milk, with lots of sugar. Reminds me of my childhood. The official state drink of Rhode Island.

I already am the best at something, but if I tell you, somebody would know...

Iced espresso. Double shot in a glass of ice, top up with cold water to taste. A little sugar. My own roast. I think it's excellent.
I figure some kind of camo: The T-Shirt of Darkness
What sort of post or comment gets you downvoted the most? Especially if you don't think it's bad behavior in the first place, or don't care. Does not have to be on Lemmy, but we are here... One of the good things about Lemmy IMO is that it's small enough to see the posts that are unpopular. If you do "Top Day" on most channels, you cash reach the bottom, see what people here _don't_ like.\ As far as comments, attempting to rebut the person who is telling me my post sucks, is what gets me into negative numbers most often. The OP is going to voite it down, of course, and nobody else cares, usually.
Last year, we stayed in Brooklyn and rode bikes around New York City for a week. We had no car. It was awesome.\ I want to do a similar thing in Chicago this year. What are your vacation ideas? Not so much "the dream vacation that I want to do someday but can't", what do you want that you might do soon?
I have been trying to reduce distractions from my phone. I have installed a simple launcher (Niagara), and turned off system notifications on almost all apps.\ The good news is that now I can pick up my phone, do something I wanted to do, put it back down and get on with what I was doing. However, sometimes I *want* to see if I have messages or whatever, without having to open 6 LPs to check each one. Does anyone know of an app that can collect all those, that I can open only when I want to look at them?
For me it's: "Chronic cannabis use during adolescence impairs emotional development in adulthood" "Over achievement in crisis situations is an indicator of ADHD" Both of which provoke "Hmm, ya probably, and fuck you too"
I think the possible valid answers are: "vi", "emacs", "both", "seriously it's 2024", and " huh?"
It's time for the annual "look how much weight I gained over the holidays 😞", and New Year's resolution to lose weight. Does anyone use a food and exercise tracker app on their Android device? How is your experience with it?
Do you use a device with open source Android firmware? What device, which distro and what do you do with it? I have a Samsung tablet with LineageOS and apps from F-Droid. Other than displaying dire warnings about the unlocked bootloader every time it cold boots, It's great for a "recliner system": email, Web browsing, E-book reader and MP3 player. What do you have, what do you use it for, and how well does it work for you?
If you are at work in the middle of the night when the clocks change, do you work an extra hour in the spring and one less in the fall?
