That sounds fun! Tbh I love explaining these newer terms to older fans of the same show because usually they're so "dumbfounded" but happy to be educated lmao.

They support separate windows if that changes things.

Do I use a website to download songs off of YouTube or Spotify?

Where should I store the music? I haven't any clue about self-hosting. I'm running GrapheneOS, is it enough to save the songs in Files and play in an app like Auxio? Maybe sync with SyncThing?

What's the best way to compress mp3 files but still retain the quality (even possible)?

Could really use some help as I'm very inexperienced. :)

"No context Thursday" is all about guessing the context of an Everett True strip without having any prior information about it. The full strip will later be revealed in a spoiler in the post body.

Obligatory disclaimer: NCT is completely optional to tune in for. Those who want to make a guess are free to do so. Regular comic strips are always allowed to be posted, even on NCT.

Now; what do you think the context behind this is?

Keep in mind I'm also a beginner, so I'm sure there are people here with better advice than mine. But I would say, start out light with a weight you know you'll be able to handle. Gradually work your way up to heavier weights, heavy enough to keep you sweaty but not so heavy that you can barely lift them at all.

I have made up a simple routine, where I do different exercises every second day to keep the variation. I start out with squats (both with and without a dumbbell), train my biceps and triceps, throw in reverse crunches in every session, and usually I end my routine with hip thrusts or goblet squats. I made this routine up on my own, aka I don't pay for any subscription or something like that. Definitely research what exercises stimulate the body in the best way, but I can say with some certainty that squats never hurt.

Yes. I am asking for FOSS alternatives that have the same level of functionality and efficiency as Apple Maps.

Thanks! I never thought of that.

That’s why I can’t imagine not* being friends with someone before entering a relationship with them. People who look for romance right off the bat are setting themselves up for failure.

I suppose this notion awakens suspicions of depression in people who find the text relatable? Hence the comments referencing depression.

Life does not need to be miraculous, special, or paradise-like. Have we taken humanity for granted so much, that we can’t find enthralment in the small things? Having a coffee in the morning, going to the gym in the evening. Maybe some of us could benefit from romanticisation, if it means stopping trying to achieve something special; life is special as it is, you don’t have to consciously do something to reach its peak.

I don’t know. I ramble. I guess, my point is, you don’t have to look closely into things in order to find something whimsical about life. Life is simple at its core; maybe it’s each of our individuality that makes it so fascinating.

Upvoted because of title.

I have a “phobia” (or at least a very strong fear) of insects. This includes regular flies, worms, mosquitos, bees, butterflies to some extent. Whenever I hear that buzz of a fly, my fight-or-flight response activates and I instantly become more aware of my surroundings. Whenever I hear a fly inside my apartment I tell my parents to please kill it or let it out, sometimes I hide in my room. Coincidentally enough, a few days ago I found a decently small worm in my bedroom and it kept wiggling, and my anxiety was intense. I kept yelling for my mom to go get it, my heartbeat was so intense.

People like to laugh whenever I flinch or act nervous around a small fly, and I get why that’s funny, but I really hate it. It distracts me and makes me feel on edge. People keep telling me, “it’s just a small insect, it can’t hurt you”; I know it can’t, but the buzzing and the way it flies makes me really uncomfortable. It’s why I don’t like summer. It’s weird, because I didn’t always feel this way; I only started having this phobia at around 10 years old maybe. Anyway, I don’t know why I have it. But it’s really debilitating.

Finding Lemmy, in turn, made me more aware of online privacy and got me to read a lot of tech news. Considering the age we're in, that can't be bad at all.
