In dutch they say: “Hunger makes raw beans taste sweet”!
when packing up after windsurfing, they would advise against taking your trapeze off (a huge belly belt that can connect you to the sail, handsfree!) before you had access too food, because more often then not, it would unleash the hunger beast within. It was fun to have that power over your own hunger! GIMME THOSE SWEET BEANS!

Friend of mine once found a frozen-over cd of “Shaggy - Wasn’t Me” in his backyard, and after cleaned and thawed, it worked no problem. I guess someone really hated that single?

Never trusted discords ownership and bussinessmodel, and observing their behaviour the last 4-5 years really cemented that as accurate. Bye, I won’t miss ya.
Chee_Koala@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Kitfox Games: "Dwarf Fortress has surpassed 1,000,000 sales on Steam!"English14·22 days agoFantastic news! I’m so happy they felt impetus to include the less ASCII loving fellow humans in their beautiful game, I tried it a couple times earlier but with too much frustration. The vanilla steambuild changed all that, and at warp 9 as well. Wat a great game, really happy for the developers and publisher.
In dutch we call this: a “Vest”, and I think that’s just beautiful.
Chee_Koala@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Developing a self-hosted alternative to Google KeepEnglish3·1 month agoI think I understand your requirements more clearly now, a framework for FOSS collaborative work would be really great. I Hope you can find a way to use Matrix for it. Thanks for the explanation.
Man, I loved the google docs realtime collab functionality, they pretty much nailed it day 1 in my eyes. It’s so easy. If your project works/takes off it should be a lot more straightforward for FOSS projects to incorporate it. Hype!
Chee_Koala@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Developing a self-hosted alternative to Google KeepEnglish4·1 month agoHey Hey! What a fantastic idea, I sure hope you can manage!
I was immediately wondering why you wouldn’t hop on projects already out there. For example: I recently ditched google Keep // Trello for Joplin, which i think already ticks alot of your boxes, even Async collab should work (but not realtime, and you’d have to manually resolve conflicts). Maybe adding better collab in Joplin is a more efficient way to spend your time? LibreOffice also has Async collab, since I think about 6 months, so while it might be young, it will grow, and might also benefit from another person putting their time towards it.
Whatever you choose to do, I’ll be super interested to see the results.

Chee_Koala@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?9·1 month agoI don’t think life is ‘less pointless’ if you procreate. It’s both very pointless, except for personal fulfilment. What should it matter if you follow a path that evolution laid out before you. With consciousness, there is no more reason to consider that path in my eyes, just do what feels right.
Chee_Koala@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?3·1 month agoWell I’d be glad to try your idea, it doesn’t sound worse then what we have currently and the current state sucks old car tires.
Chee_Koala@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?161·1 month agoIf capitalism was not so psychotic, inhumane and bloodthirsty, I might agree. In the current world market? If you are worth more then double/triple what your average local family house is worth, I will probably hate their personality and what they stand for.
They’ll still get the benefit of the doubt and I’ll still engage, because everyone is their own person, but they are playing 3-0 behind and have lots to prove. There’s a reason upper management is full of similar personality types.
Chee_Koala@lemmy.worldto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•"When does <insert package name> get update ?" moment.682·1 month agoWhy even use releases? Everyone can build everything for themselves. ‘Normal Users’ are just lazy, everyone wants to know how every piece of software is built for their system, it’s not like they have other stuff to do.
Where there’s a will, there’s a toupee . I am blessed with a full, thick, luscious dark blonde coupe, but everyone around being so negative about hairpieces made me think about them a lot… Following that, I have come to peace with the fact that I might go bald, and I might not like it, and rando hairpiece-haters around me won’t stop me from going all 18th century on my new hairpiece.
My first own house was in the middle of a lot of cultures that are different from my own, and man did those folks LOVE changing their hair every few days, with pieces or otherwise. Every second shop was selling surrogate hair, and it looked very cool. I think that part of those cultures is fucking rad, and it inspired me to pre-emptively accept my own future toupee, if it ever comes to that.
