I'm here because Lemmy.World keeps going down and Beehaw activity plummeted after defederating from the larger instances.

  • otherwise we end up with another version of COBOL.

    We're already there, I don't see VBA being phased out of accounting or finance for at least a decade and I'm not even sure then.

  • Another Sys Admin confirming that yes, the finance department runs nearly entirely on VBA. They would be lost without it.

  • Thank you for some sanity. Dems are far from perfect but they've done a lot of good and can continue to if we can get more in office.

  • The word choice of "subrace" is definitely not great but I could see this being used as inspiration for a fantasy creature.

  • There's all kinds of mutated body horror creatures in ttrpg's it's not that weird.

    I'm working on a half-slug half-man adventure module for instance.

  • This is a pretty decent copy pasta, I hope this is original.

  • Making my way through DS9 and Voyager now, I'll put that on the docket next. Can't wait for season three lol

  • Well now I have to see it, what's Spock's Brain? Is that the name of an OT episode? Haven't made my way through the OT yet.

  • the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, reported last year that roughly 20% of Americans have medical debt

    I'm honestly shocked it's only 20%.

  • I had to skip all episodes with her

    So like, some of the most important episodes to the Bajoran story lines? What? I hate her too but, what? lol

  • And it was this comment that got me to realize it's the same actress. Amazing I never saw that before. Albeit I haven't seen Over the Cuckoo's Nest in like over ten years but still lol

  • Love my lawful evil setup, works great!

  • Lol arguably, you can actually walk around the interior of your ship in SC. The FPS portions are pretty good. But last time I played (like two years ago) I fell through a staircase.

    I should give it another go soon.

  • It's still moving towards completion. At a snail's pace but it's moving. To their defense they've done some really cool tech with the game engine and stuff but idk if that justifies the timeline imo.

    My money is spent regardless though, so I'll zoom around in my leather interior ship whenever it does release.

  • Star Citizen might take the cake, I say as an original Kickstarter backer of Star Citizen.

  • I know I get annoyed by webp because Telegram processes it as a sticker instead of a normal image. That's my only gripe with it, but like you said that's more Telegram than the actual format.

  • Lotta meth in the Nazi party, looks like a bit of meth mouth and a side of tobacco dipping to me.

  • What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you filthy Imperial? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in House Telvanni, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Black Marsh, and I have over 300 confirmed farm equipment kills. I am trained in Dunmer warfare and I'm the top battlemage in the entire Vvardenfell armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision spells the likes of which has never been seen before in this realm, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across Cyrodiil and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the ash storm, scrib. The ash storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with conjuration. Not only am I extensively trained in alchemical combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Sixth House and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn N'wah. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

  • bags of holding.

    It's true. The character in my current campaign has two bags of holding and a bag of devouring.

    Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek unveils task force to bolster downtown Portland

    Edit: I just saw that another person already posted an article about this six or so hours before this from another news agency, so that's my bad mods. I'll try to check more thoroughly next time 😅

    Summary:

    Kotek and the Oregon Business Council will convene a panel of local elected officials, business executives and civic leaders beginning later this month...

    Dan McMillan, president of insurance company The Standard, will co-chair the task force with the governor.

    A final roster of confirmed participants will be forthcoming... Mayor Ted Wheeler and Multnomah County Chair Jessica Vega Pederson have both been invited to join...

    The first meeting of the task force will take place Aug. 22, and the group will reconvene in September and October, according to the governor’s office. The group plans to issue a series of recommendations at the Oregon Plan Business Leadership Summit in December.

    Instance Donations?

    Most instances have a Kofi or something equivalent where you can give some money to help the instance admins. But I didn't see any links like that while poking around in the side bars.

    Does this instance have something like that and I'm missing it? Or are the costs of running this instance not at a point where that kind of assistance is necessary? I don't have a lot of money but appreciate the work that goes into maintenance of an instance, so I like to toss a few bucks here and there to the ones I use when I can.

    Howdy World

    Hi, I'm Dee.

    I was browsing through the various instances to join up with because I was tired of all the downtime with lemmy.world and I wanted to start using Lemmy as it was intended (spreading accounts out among more instances). That, and Beehaw hasn't been quite as engaging since defederation with lemmy.world and other large instances (which is why I went back to the lemmy.world account in the first place). I get why they defederated and I support their decision, it just was an overall negative impact for me in my Beehaw experience since I was in so many other communities outside of Beehaw.

    This instance seemed chill, it blocks Threads and exploding heads so that's a great first impression. There's a few more instances I'd like to see added to the block list but that's a good enough start for me to get comfy here. The low user count has made everything just run so much quicker than with lemmy.world and I can still enjoy the same communities.

    Happy to have found this place that a
