With the efforts I'm doing to try and de-google / de-big US tech this needs to be my next move.

Trying to convince my better half to do it on his laptop is a pain. I'm under if you degoogle my chromebook now or once it loses support.

Wish I'd held off, or this happened sooner. But can't complain, let's get more onboard! 🎉🎉🎈

As a Gay that is questioning their spirituality, I'd like some guidance (but please don't be judgmental) in c/gaybros@lemmy.world

I'm gay and have been Christian (Anglican, CofE specifically) for about 7 years now

I'm definitely questioning joining the Quakers though.

I'm happy with having a faith if only I can also have science. Over time I went from being atheist (teens) agnostic (latter teens - mid twenties) now Anglican and Quaker curious.

Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss to launch ‘free speech’ social media platform in c/technology@lemmy.world

I think I'll join the platform that the lettuce launches, it'll likely last longer

do you say either or either? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I definitely use them both together more often than just one. Like you, to express indifference to a choice.

I don't tend to do that with neither though 🤔 and now I'm thinking too hard, I don't know which I tend to go with.

Over these recent months the I think it's quite clear where we should be focusing our efforts. I can only hope we build a much stronger relationship with the EU.

Do I personally want us to rejoin, definitely!

Do I think we will? Not any time soon.

I certainly think having a relationship like the Swiss or Norway should be a good starting point.

I'm just not sure what to upload. I seldomly uploaded photos on Facebook, before I came off it, and that's with friends and family. Does Joe public want to see what I've been doing?

Maybe I'm not the right audience for pixelfed

Switch to Qwant in c/degoogle@lemmy.ml
[–] CrowyTech@feddit.uk 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I've been using Qwant for about a month now on Vivaldi. I'm happy and see no reason to go back to Google full time. What I do miss from Google though is things like showing business opening times when searching

A juice company dumped orange peels in a national park. This is what it looks like today (www.upworthy.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://slrpnk.net/post/20549992

...one thousand trucks poured into the national park, offloading over 12,000 metric tons of sticky, mealy, orange compost onto the worn-out plot. The site was left untouched and largely unexamined for over a decade. A sign was placed to ensure future researchers could locate and study it.

16 years later, Janzen dispatched graduate student Timothy Treuer to look for the site where the food waste was dumped.

Treuer initially set out to locate the large placard that marked the plot — and failed.

First Tattoo, thought I'd bitten off more than I could chew, end result... Love it (feddit.uk)
 

Wanted to get this tattoo for a little while, love the personal and classic symbolism of crows.

Parts of the outlining hurt more than I was expecting. Some of the shading hurt like a removed!

I'd not researched much and now I am I see just how much some some people say the chest hurts! I agree with them.

The artist was great and reassuring, Took her around 2 hours and can't wait to see it once the second skin comes off and it's all healed.

Tattoo by Pippa at Fates & Fury Tattoo, Sheffield, UK.
