Hey. Read your response earlier but glossed over the last half. Thanks for asking. I'm still getting over it. Still miss him every day, but I'm thankful for the time we had together. Hope you have a great night.

And now I have a phone capable of taking photos too large to be stored on that drive. Crazy how quickly technology can progress.

I can't speak for any specific instance, but I believe many of the smaller ones that defederated lemmy.world were concerned that a large user base with looser sign-up requirements would disrupt the community they wanted to build.

All I'm saying is that sometimes it's good to put the screens down. If you want to see that as pointless, that's your call.

This is mostly correct, but another point to consider (once OP becomes more familiar with the basics) is the concept of defederation. Basically, not all instances permit interactions with each other. Many smaller instances have defederated from lemmy.world, for example. That means that users on those instances can not directly interact with communities hosted on lemmy.world, although you could still encounter users from that instance in a post on a community in a different instance that is federated with both.

If the instance you are currently on has defederated from another one that you would like to browse, you will need to create a new user account on that instance (or one that hasn't defederated from it).

Have you tried going outside?

Nah, just ate, thanks.

Could be. I was sitting on the carpet. I've never seen anything like it before or since, though.

Technically, I didn't buy this, but I feel like it fits the spirit of the thread.

When I was a kid, a friend of mine gifted me an off-brand Super Nintendo controller to me for my birthday. I used it for all of about 5 minutes before it shocked the shit out of my hand and then never worked again.

At first glance, I thought this was a political compass meme.

"Stealth" across the forehead. Is this one of those ironic tattoos?

Lost my boy today (sh.itjust.works)

I'm heartbroken. We found out he was FIV positive shortly after we got him, but that doesn't make the loss any easier. He was only 1.5 years old. Hold your cats close for me tonight.

Edit: I fell asleep, so I'm sorry that I didn't respond to everyone. I'm very thankful to everyone for the kind words and support.
