My favourite template is back <3
I related to this one to a tee, down to spending way too much time at the college pub

I played WoW religiously from vanilla until Legion with very few breaks. I think I had over 3 years in game time on my main when I quit, with a few more years spread between alts.
Next would be Path of Exile, 3000 hours and counting.
After that, probably Dota 2 at 1200 hours
I swear sometimes it feels like capitalism is the boogeyman behind everything with some people.
This has nothing to do with late stage capitalism and everything to do with how cheap compute is becoming. Fact is that it's just much more convenient to have everything in a managed cloud. You don't need to manage your own servers, take care of maintenance, upgrades, etc. This removes a fuckton of overhead from your organization.
I've been part of on prem to cloud transitions at 3 different companies, and I saw the benefits firsthand. You can replace entire departments, and the contract your signing means you're protected against pretty much any fuckup from the provider's side.
Not to mention, I guarantee Microsoft's cloud is more secure than 99.9% of the server rooms it replaced.
You think I remember shit about differential equations or calc 3?
What a surprise, the claims were overblown. Glad to hear I can stock up on my Pepsi Zero again, since 1-2 cans a day won't kill me

Same. I played a lot of WoW. I was a US top 5 raider in MoP/WoD. I wrote guides on icy-veins and WoWHead.
Then even though I quit at the start of Legion, I've stuck around in the community and occasionally still post/contribute, but it's getting rarer and rarer the more the game moves on without me.
One of these days, I plan to build up a neat blog with some static site generator like Nikola. Or maybe host documentation about everything I do with bookstack or wiki.js.
For now, it just redirects to a rickroll.
If you subscribe to the communities, they'll show up on your front page just like local communities. If you want to browse them, you csn go to lemmy.world/c/community@instance
A comment on my other account got brigaded by tankies a while ago. Was told to "fuck off, liberal"
But then that guy got banned from the instance, and everything was good.
Maybe if Twitter provided a reasonably priced API, people wouldn't have to resort to scrapers.
If you set up a torrent for them, I'll be happy to perma-seed them from my gigabit dedicated server
