I get that it's always been like that, it just shouldn't be. Whether you believe it's okay or not is totally an opinion and it's fine. I've used sync alone for as long as it's been around basically.

Just switched recently to Thunder. It's a bit slower but has a lot of options. Its working fine... And this is from a person who has been many times over the years and is currently paying for sync.

Sync is more reddit than reddit was. And is my Lemmy experience up until a few days ago.

I'm sure it'll be fun and I'm always glad to have more trek.

Two things concern me, first every person we've met previously from section 31 has been an asshole. Intentional writing to make them them an organization working against the ideals of the federation. Will that make it harder for me to like the characters or their missions? I am unsure if I want to relate better to them.

The second is that universe ending stuff has little emotional impact on me, it's unimaginable to me especially with the CGI required to visualize it. Episodes always hits me harder when it's a planet, a species, a special person or some mystery to be discovered.

As a child, the house we grew up in had a very large tree in our back yard. I had a memory of burying some skeleton keys near it but couldn't remember where. The house was old enough that we'd find skeleton keys occasionally and also as a kid they are special.

I searched for days, weeks, months... Digging holes all over the yard and under the tree. I recruited neighborhood kids and friends.

For two summers we searched for buried treasure. Never found them. Might have been a dream I had of burying the keys. I still think about it occasionally and wonder. The tree is long gone and the truth is I'll never know for sure.

This is an incredible write up and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

I've used both platforms, and had fun with both. I barely use either for posting though, and more for trying to follow topics I like, as I do on Lemmy.

Anything to stop ending my Google searches in "reddit".

I know all the reasons I should be on Firefox, but I just love Vivaldi so much.

I've been using it for years and have it tuned perfectly for anything I do. It's feature rich, and fast.

Occasionally there are apps or even tools in life where you are like holy shit, this is exactly made for how I want to do a task/job.

My gestures are so ingrained in me, sometimes I catch my hand moving the mouse to perform an action in another unrelated app. My brain notices instantly but can't stop my hand from trying to do it anyway. It makes me laugh.

Mildly related by the topic. I'm playing ghost recon breakpoint and a bunch of the main characters are hiding in a huge cave. My character said something like "do you have a computer?" And the NPC replied, "I live in a cave, I'm not a cave man" .

I do not still wear a mask, but I really loved having my face covered when I went places during covid. I just felt free. I don't know why as I don't have a problem going anywhere or doing anything normally, but covering my face felt good (except on 100 degree days in summer).

Based on the comments in the thread, they asked it to repeat before actually having it say anything so it repeated the directives.

There's a whole bunch of comments relocating it with chat logs.

I have dogs and for the last ten years or so, owned indoor sneakers. I do not like slippers or sandals so I buy some running shoes or something, cheap ones, on sale. They last forever because it's indoor only. I replace them when they get smelly.

I do not wear shoes that have been outside, in my place.

Works for me!

Love this idea. It's an idea that's easy to break down to children as well, help them narrow down their options when someone is talking to them.

This is one that will stick with me for sure.

Had that happen to me about 6 months ago. I was really really upset about it because I had actually forgot the last time I had meat and it was like starting the clock over. It just made me feel awful, not the meat itself but like I was legit sad about it.

I noticed the crunch wrap tasted different and when I checked it was too late.

I always check everything now.

I want to like mastodon but I don't want to do the leg work of finding accounts. I like the algorithm to some extent, I want help to find things.

I also have trouble deciding how to support the post. Liking doesn't do anything and tooting or whatever puts it on my page. I don't feel part of the community boosting topics I like.

I like voting things up and down.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong but I try and get instantly bored because I have to hunt for everything. I really tried.
