I started using Linux for the first time this week after seeing all the linux memes on Lemmy and alot of help from me girlfriend, so hopefully it will be a year of the Linux for me!

Happy new year everyone!

Nice!!! I’m trying to be like you

How can reading be no 1 most attractive and comic books are on the unattractive side of the list?

I used to meditate alot and it has helped, using headspace in the beginning but I stopped some years ago. On the bright side I overthink much less than before but meditation couldn’t hurt and would probably help

I definitely overthink before sleep, I’m relatively calm in the other places you listed. I never thought about where/when I overthink before, thanks for giving me a new way of framing overthinking, I will try my best not to overthink it

Noooo!!! I just saw this and it’s 30 mins past midnight. I let down Earth, Wind and Fire

I know we shouldn’t make memes of the orange man going down on Laura but if those meme did exist I think his fascist loving base would have a hard time processing a man going down on a woman

They should be tried!

I misread the title and thought it said 9.4% of its energy from renewables not just solar. Way to go Chile!

I was sure this was fake until I saw some of the comments and looked it up. This is amazing!

Thanks so much for sharing and taking the time to break it down for the layperson!

This is the first time I’m hearing of e waste mining, do you recommend doing it at a small scale? and if so, do you need any special material for the set up?

Thanks! First time hearing of this.

Thanks. I didn’t know about Venezuela’s history at all. But I meant not more on a policy level to mandate that all companies must be owned equally by employees instead of shareholders

Are there movements in the US or globally to force all business into worker coops? Unions are good but I think this is their ultimate limitation, that employers can just offshore their jobs

Kendrick performed Not like Us five times during his Juneteenth concert. The joke here is Drake writing his lyrics saying that he didn’t perform it a sixth time bc he is afraid of “the six” which is term that Drake often uses to refer to his hometown, Toronto.

I like that in the netflix version they added scenes that weren’t in the original. My favorite is the scene of Lu Ten’s funeral. Iroh is just sitting there silent but you can see on his face that is he is broken inside but everyone comes up to him and congratulates him that his son died a hero. No one says it but for me it felt like in the fire nation culture you’re not allowed to mourn the death of those who died in battle, which is a crazy concepts but fits with the Fire Nations fascist ideology.

I couldn’t find the whole scene, but here is the last part of it (https://yewtu.be/watch?v=hwPn2gJ1B_U). For context, Zuko has gone up to Iroh and said that Lu Ten’s death is great honor. But when he was about to leave he comes back and thats when the above video starts.

These scenes add so much to the character of Iroh, Zuko, Lu Ten (whose character we did know anything about in the original) and to war-time Fire Nation culture. It’s amazing!
