Yeah, that is the most common response I get. Not quite sure what the best approach to deal with that is.

Is 13 a normal age to be working in Canada? That seems a bit young.

Hogfather. Based on the Terry Pratchett book of the same name. The hogfather (santa) is missing so Death has to fill in.

That was definitely my experience buying a car a few months ago. My car was totaled so I had to buy a replacement unexpectedly. I was seeing used cars with 30,000-50,000 miles selling for more than MSRP and new cars were very hard to find. I ended up buying a new car that was less expensive than the used cars I was looking at and ended up getting a much lower APR due to the fact that it was a new car.

Yeah, I have a very hard time trusting Microsoft.

Renting a house/appartment vs. owning is a pretty big one, same with renting vs owning most things.

Nice tools vs cheap tools. It really does seem to be everything, from clothes, to tools, to food and healthcare.

GNU STP.

A lot of us are.

Worth a try, I suppose.

I came here to say that as well. Or, as @vd1n says, mushrooms. It really helps remind you that the world is wondrous, and even after it's over, it makes it easier to see the joy in everything.

Yeah, I tend to like that response, sometimes it works but people seem to think it would never happen here...

I switched because Microsoft just keeps getting worse and worse, and I like having complete control over my system. And limiting the amount of my data going out.

Linux in general uses much less system resources than windows, and I like being able to easily change my workflow (desktop environment, window manager, etc).

I don't know that you can do it without an extension, however Mozilla has put out an extension called "Firefox Translations" that translates webpages locally on your computer with a downloaded dictionary. So far it works well in my experience, though I don't know any other languages, so I can't really speak to its accuracy. That being said, so far I haven't come across any nonsensical translations.

I don't live in the UK, but for those of you that do, you can get some Discworld stamps.

Hah, fair enough, most people don't seem to understand that it is so close to that though.

I prefer silver jewelry (on myself at least), but for furniture type things gold is alright.

Do it! Linux is great, and not nearly as hard as its reputation suggests.

I also like nutritional yeast on popcorn. Sometimes i will do curry powder instead.

I used the trial and then just started paying for it. So far, it is much better results, and I like that they do not track you. Also, their small web lens has been fun to play around with.

That is true, I do quite like that rule.

I started using Lemmy a bit before the blackout and all that fun stuff. I was using both before the blackout, then just Lemmy during, and I realized I had a lot more free time and was enjoying the posts on Lemmy more, so I just stayed here full time.
