This is treading on glass considering Rowlings recent controversy.

It takes a lot of time and effort to bring a platform to maturity. If you aren't a developer then it's hard to grasp that. Lemmy has had years to get where it is.

Yup, that's why I murdered him when he tried to bite me in my sleep 😅

I think that's covered by "Don't trust other companies". You just need a business internet line with a static IP to host your own stuff in your house.

While our culture often attributes achievement to "good genes" - praising attractive looks, natural intelligence, or innate resilience - the reality is more complex than simple genetic determinism. There's evidence suggesting genetic factors influence not just our baseline capabilities, but also our capacity to develop and maintain the beneficial behaviors needed for success. This includes predispositions affecting executive function, stress response, emotional regulation, and basic temperament traits that can make sustained effort and resilience more achievable for some individuals. However, these genetic advantages only represent potential - they must interact with environmental factors like access to education, supportive relationships, proper nutrition, and opportunities to be fully realized. Understanding this interplay helps us move beyond oversimplified praise of "natural talent" while still acknowledging that genetic factors create different starting points for developing crucial traits. This doesn't mean those with less favorable genetic predispositions cannot achieve success - rather, it suggests they may need different strategies and more conscious effort to develop similar capabilities.

It's interesting to see the sniper footage. I wonder how they record that?

At least in most democratic countries you can't just bribe the politicians legally. That helps a lot.

I have solved my work problem by using the online versions of MS office and SharePoint. The desktop versions are just emulated web apps these days anyway. I have only seen MS Project (which sucks anyway) and Excel having features I needed once or twice on the desktop version vs the online version.

Better to make stuff with it. Like diamonds, graphene, or carbon nanotubes.
