  • Man, idk about any of that. The only thing I can say is too far is the alleged autism comment, but there’s no proof, just his word from 4.5 years ago

    The WAN show is news commentary, that sometimes doesn’t accurately attribute. That’s reason not to watch, but not for claims of plagiarism or stealing.

    And I rarely watch anything from LMG, except for specific videos that are exactly what I’m looking for. I’m not a follower of theirs, but just taking GN word as gospel seems just as dumb











  • And here we have the reason why online psychological diagnosis is considered malpractice, especially over text in a single session

    I’m a highly empathetic person, to the point it causes me difficulties in life, especially in male relationships. I did this specific prank because I knew he personally would love it and he was already highly stressed and needed a break. It worked out great, both for our friendship and his college career.

    But thanks for the completely useless, unfounded, and insulting armchair diagnosis. Perhaps in the future your time might be better spent figuring out your compulsive need to prove yourself right and the best understander of a situation despite having almost no requisite knowledge


  • Or maybe I know my friends better than you do after reading a quick story.

    Idk man, maybe if this was the first time we did anything in this realm I could see that, but it’s an established part of our relationship. We trust each other. And maybe some levity with no real stakes actually helped lighten his stress during a difficult time, and that was the whole point? He was spiraling a bit and wouldn’t take a break, so just a bit of fun helped him chill and refocus, IMHO.

    He graduated cum laude so I think it all worked out pretty well. I think you need to chill a bit and not assume you know everything about everyone after like 3 lines of text



  • Maybe if afterwards I showed him the knife was made of painted wood, blunted completely, and I snuck a throat protector in his turtleneck.

    I did more things like checking a windows install on my laptop first, and cloning his drive off before I pulled it.

    We would regularly pull pranks on each other, the rule was it couldn’t cause lasting harm. This fit well within that, and he got me at least as good multiple times. One of my best friends, ever




  • So that meme reminds me of a prank.

    There was once I had the same exact laptop as a buddy, but wasn’t using it anymore. He was finishing his degree and just about to turn in like 8 papers/assignments and had a ton of work saved on it. So I wiped my laptop and installed fresh Kubuntu, and then swapped the drives when he wasn’t looking. Then I pretended to have done him a favor since he had been having intermittent windows problems.

    He was livid but was trying so hard to be kind, loool. Made it better when I could swap it right back and everything was there


  • I’ve run Yunohost for quite a while and a few of these are inaccurate

    1). maybe, if you’re putting it in a VPS. But there’s also VPN, Tailscale, and I believe Headscale apps available 2). I’ve barely ever run the CLI, especially for Yunohost commands. Even for system and package updates, its not necessary. I do wish there was a built in terminal tho 3). eh, I mean sometimes but its per-app and its either-or. so typically I’ll check the install page for subdomain and set that up. And remember, some of that is upstream constraints 4). yeah, that’s the most annoying one, tbh. But the ones that are starred or maintained are typically very good, 5). I’ve had good times and bad on the forums, about par for FOSS. heard gokd things about the chat. And for maintained packaged, github issues are answered quickly IMHO 6). I mean, its 12 now and you want it stable. Update your sources.list if ya want 7). this is only true of some few apps, but almost always its listed in the install screen.

    I kinda agree, but I’ve been very impressed with Cosmos Cloud. I ve got the full 400 package marketplace, and having all that on docker, auto-updates, and good user auth is nice.

    I’m using it as a frontend/services and Yunohost as a backend/datacloud/DevOps since it seems to be more robust and reliable long-term. The user management, email, XMPP, and (mostly) transferrable auth is top notch, not to mention default hardening like fail2ban, GUI ssh port shift, LEcerts, etc. Just wish they’d add in a docker system like Cosmos, it’d really fix most of the problems, IMHO
