I moved to lemmy hoping it would be like classic Reddit, which it is to some extent. Unfortunately, my experience has been more like browsing Imgur – just endless memes and shitposts.

I tried blocking all the meme-focused communities I could find, but now my feed feels like a ghost town.

Using Bluefin (a Fedora atomic distro) and all of that gets done automatically behind the scenes. Flatpaks, distrobox containers, Brew, vocoder extensions, etc…

All done using topgrade: https://github.com/topgrade-rs/topgrade

Better to watch the original 4 times in a row.

Been on the lofi Chopin and similar songs lately.

Instead of news organizations holding general debates, I’d like to see non-political non-profits hold more narrowly focused debates. Can be broadcast by any channel that wants to air it.

Focus on two or three core, interconnected, issues with a few offshoots that are tangently connected.

Invite top thinkers on those specific issues along with the top presidential candidates.

Even if the other invites don’t have a shot at being president, it will still force the presidential candidates to try to make valid arguments against or side with people that really know about the issues. The people really should hear these views instead of main candidates just trying to bring their opponent down. And if someone not in the top two expresses something that really resonates with the audience, maybe it gets picked up by a main candidate.

Ptyxis is default on Bluefin, which I’m on now.

Recommend. Really nice container integration with distrobox.

Eh, I don’t trust any 3rd party enough to give them all my passwords and I don’t trust myself enough to secure a server for self hosting a password manager.

I know all my passwords, can’t forget em, no paper or notes, no repeat passwords.

All the meme communities. I thought lemmy was going to be like reddit 15 years ago, but scolling all seems more like imugr.

distrobox enter debian-toolbox :)

Check out projectbluefin.io, the developer experience has lots of goodies built in.

It’s a immutable/atomic fedora silverblue spin based on cloud native principles.

If you are looking for a scientific approach try listening to Andrew Huberman’s 6-part series all about sleep with Dr Matt Walker.

Link to episode 1 on youtube, its also on Spotify: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OBCwiPPfEU

Huberman’s Sleep Toolkit: https://www.hubermanlab.com/newsletter/toolkit-for-sleep

Tape your mouth when you sleep, when your body thinks it’s about to suffocate your nostrils will open right up.

Make sure your tongue is pressed up on roof of mouth right behind your top front teeth when you are awake, keeps you breathing through nose and not mouth.

Go to the gym and hit the treadmill, run as long as you can only breathing through your nose, go back everyday and increase the time by 5-15 seconds.

…

This combo solved it for me and got rid of snoring.
When I started on treadmill I could only do about a minute of running without mouth breathing, now I can go as long as my legs will last. Don’t expect to be able to make it through whole night with your mouth taped, and tape verticle not horizontal, with small easy to remove tape… don’t kill yourself.

No import? No scan qr code from image?

I had never used homebrew before switching to bluefin. Honestly I still hardly use it. Most gui things I can find flatpaks and command line stuff I’ll search homebrew, but just as easy to open Ubuntu distrobox and apt install or install a .deb

I love that everything is updating constantly. That you can roll back easily if you mess something bad. That all system files are immutable so. Also super easy to rebase from to bluefin to ublue to Aurora to Bazzite to kinoite.

I haven’t seen youtube ads in years. uBlock and sponsorblock extension in Firefox on my laptop. Newpipe with sponsorblock on my phone.

Fur Elise wasn’t discovered until 40 years after his death and its unknown who it was written for.

Something like Zeno’s paradox.

I use acme.sh and everything works fine. It has hooks for namecheap and wildcrds automatically renew

I’m on name cheap and all my letsemcrypt renewals are automated easily.
