Please remember that I gave you this helpful advice when you commence your invasion of our planet.

Yes, qwerty and Dvorak, although I have to guess and check with some special characters on Dvorak. I have an unlabeled Dvorak keyboard at work (this guy right here), but I only physically go in to the office once every few weeks nowadays, and I’m starting to forget where some of the symbols are.

I forgot that song was in it. Ok, now I have to watch it again.

I remember wanting to watch this at some point, but I think I got it confused with The Orville. I should check it out again.

1. Big Fan, a movie about an obsessive football fan, starring Patton Oswalt. I only saw it once, when it first came out (2009), but remember thinking that it was really good. A very prescient, dark comedy about a certain type of guy that is very relevant today. It made $230,000 in theaters according to Wikipedia.
2. Unreal 2, and specifically just the multiplayer. Unreal 2 was a pretty disappointing sequel, and it didn’t even have multiplayer when it came out. A year after its launch, they released a multiplayer addon and it was amazing. Completely overshadowed by Unreal Tournament 2004, never really had a chance of becoming popular, but it had a dedicated fan base for a while. You can get it for free now; I want to get a group together at some point.

I chose Piefed over Lemmy since I thought the UI looked nicer. The pace of development has been really impressive lately, and for my specific instance, I’ve been very happy with feddit.online.

Mastodon seems like the default answer for this question, and I do also like Mastodon. I self-host that one.

I use it for my music server and have enjoyed it, but I haven’t really used it in a “fediverse” kind of way. I’m just using it for my own music collection, for the same use case that most people would use Navidrome for.

I disabled federation after I first set it up, because all of the sudden a bunch of podcasts showed up in languages that I don’t speak, and I couldn’t figure out how to hide them.

It has been just fine as a plain old music server, though. I used it for podcasts for a while, too, but am currently switching to Pinepods, since that has more podcast-specific features that I was looking for.

Hi Hank!

Yards are at foot scale, hence their use in football. /s

I’ve never once had to convert feet into miles, and I can’t imagine I’m unique in this.

100% this. Look, imperial may be silly, but some of the arguments for changing to metric are also very silly. Things are usually at a mile scale or a foot scale, and I don’t really need to go between the two.

And sure, converting between different units is convenient in metric, but how often do you have to do that? So you can easily tell me how many liters of water would be needed to fill a giant, square kilometer fish tank, but who needs to do that? What grade school math problem are you living in?

Unfortunately, the only open source physical media player I’m aware of is the Tangara. Their most recent blog post is from July, 2025, and mentions some tweaks they want to make before doing another production run. So there might be more units coming, but there will be a wait.

Oh interesting, maybe it’s just more of a western US thing and I assumed it was the whole country. I live in Utah now, and every high school has it here. Also every high school (from what I remember) in California also had it.

Had my learner’s permit at 15, and regular license at 16, which is pretty standard in the US. The driving school for me was literally the high school. Like, the driving class was one of the classes you take in your regular school. That is also pretty common in the US.

My JSON export from wallabag is 46 megabytes. That’s for 2,465 articles.

I love how active the development on Linkwarden is. I still have all of my stuff in wallabag, but Linkwarden is tempting. I gave the hosted trial a try a few weeks ago, but my wallabag export was too big to import. Maybe I’ll try selfhosting it and manually increasing the max upload size this time.
