I set strict restrictions and limits on my work-life balance. My company can throw all the work they want at me between the hours of 9 and 5. Anytime outside that range, I’m not an employee, I’m a husband and a father. If my phone rings at 5:15, it goes to voicemail until tomorrow morning. I’m an IT consultant, so I have the luxury of never being on call or working weekends.

I really didn’t want to install Vista. I didn’t like how it looked or felt so I swapped out XP for Ubuntu. I stayed until Win7 and switched back to windows, but windows 8 rolled around and I went to Fedora. I’ve been here ever since.

It depends on the game. I mostly play from the couch while my wife watches TV after the kiddo goes to bed. Some games I play totally muted but others get a little volume. If there’s no one around to distract, I’ll usually play around 30-50% volume.

Cutting edge application releases so I get the newest toys after they’ve been decently tested

Do you mean actual NSFW content or things being called “_____ porn” like “unix porn” or “fight porn”?

100% Morrowind. No fantasy game has come close to giving me the feeling of wonder and adventure that TES3 has. It’s been over 20 years and I still reinstall it once a year or so to roll a new character and find new things to do.

You don’t have to from a story perspective. There are some quality of life things that 2 has, but they’re both really great games.

Metal Ear Solid. A lore heavy game about a man dealing with tinnitus.

+1 for pork bun! Everything is easy and cheap. I don’t really ask for much more from a registrar

I’ve been on Fedora for about 7 years. My server flips between Ubuntu and CentOS every couple of years.

 

What does the kbin community think about having new user accounts subscribed to some set of default communities to get them started and show how the platform works? Rather than starting from ground 0, users can have ~20-30 communities and then add/remove from there. Similar to how Reddit has default subreddits or MySpace had everyone friends with Tom.

Not only would it help grow fledgling communities, but it would also help showcase federation if we included some of the Lemmy or Mastadon sites as well.

Just a small example list:

While I'm not advocating those all be defaults, if every user new user received the same "federated start communities" it shows how kbin interact with these other platforms and helps grow the entire fediverse.

I'm just one kbin user, so what does everyone else think?
