the ! addressing allows you to post a link that anybody can click to get their instance’s version of the community link. So for example, !linux@lemmy.ml posted anywhere on lemmy becomes a link to https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/linux@lemmy.ml for me, but the exact same link is a link to https://aussie.zone/c/linux@lemmy.ml for you
The matrix is capitalism and being cis
I tend to binge through books. I just finished Andy Weir’s Artemis and Project Hail Mary in about one night each.
Which means the things I’m in the middle of tend to be web serials since I can’t just rush through. I’ve got dozens of tabs of royalroad open in my phone’s browser.

It’s a bad game that makes you bad by exposure
Laptop and Chromebook are two very different things. A laptop is sufficient for any use case that doesn’t demand GPU power, but if you’re ever considering buying a “gaming” laptop, don’t. You can get a cheap laptop and a decent gaming desktop for the same price and they’ll last you longer and run better.
A Chromebook is just walled garden bullshit.
