Someone had to be first…

I’ll get mt coat

We hang out next to the Apollo set, just don’t tell anyone

Well that was almost as much of a rant as that other fellow.

I would say “Why don’t these old farts just turn over and die”, but they are not that much older than I am - so it cant be an age issue. This only leaves them as bigoted arseholes - I still wish that they would turn over and die

Well it works well enough for my small instance, so a thimbs up from here.

I’ll also point out that it was easy to configure and chang for my needs

https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy used to work well, not sure if it is maintained still @ubergeek77@lemmy.ubergeek77.chat ?

no, they were our parents, and they never let us youngins (now around 50) forget it

I remember running BeOS back in the early 90s so I guess I’d go with Haiku

There is a fellow kiwi that debunks conspiracies (mostly flat earth) on youtube that has come out as trans (@Planarwalk). The utter vitriol that has been directed at her since she came out (and a little before as she at that stage tended towards effeminate) has been incredible to see. Trans people must be some of the strongest folk around.

thanks, there was nothing about a licence with the original post that i saw

Well that was a rabbit hole

What licence are they using? Do you know something everyone else does not?

Just because Llama Group want to control what goes into FreeLlama? Just like every other open source with a leadership?

Winamp will remain the owner of the software and will decide on the innovations made in the official version

If I release project qwtop as open source I still retain ownership of my code and make the decisions about what makes it into the main release; how is this different so far, when we haven’t seen the licence?

<edit: see post below>

Kaikoura Earthquake

To give some perspective, parts of the Kaikoura cost had 8m vertical displacement and others were displaced 5m north

We felt it some 700km away

You called?

I switched to using https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy by @ubergeek77@lemmy.ubergeek77.chat

came to say just that

sometimes it is a good reference point though

i think ive seen a few in your age bracket. there seems to be a good amount that must be around the 50+ mark

well for me:

• just passed 50 last month
• been kicking around ‘PCs’ since the vic-20
• buun using linux since Mandrake Helios (6.1)
• have self hosted all sorts (including email for nearly 10 yrs, not any more other than a relay for my lemmy)
• had a mastodon instance for about 2-3 years - but use mastodon.nz
• spun up my instance of lemmy just as the exodus started
• been into tinkering with electronics from childhood

I guess that puts me in the the tech group that seems very common here

other groups that seem well represented are the ‘left’ and lgbqt+

I’ve used influx and grafana in the past

There are some good options here for further reading
