I went to a couple social dances hosted by a local ballroom dance club. I like pretending I’m someone else, someone cool, since I don’t know anyone there.

I’m East Asian. My ex (also Asian) said I smelled bad sometimes after exercising, but my current partner (not Asian) says I don’t have any body odor. I do think that when we go to the gym together, their smell far outweighs mine. I can’t smell myself at all, but then again, people are usually habituated to their own scents.

Sometimes, though, when I was a child, my father would come home from the gym, and we could all smell him from a mile away. I don’t know if that’s because the gene skipped him or if it’s just because humans generally think their close family members are stinky.

It’s nice to talk about this when my armpits aren’t in danger of being sniffed by several drunk friends.

Wow, that’s really impressive! And they’re not being paid by Apple either…

I thought there would be lots of Linux distros designed for SoCs since they’re somewhat common for laptops.

Huh, I thought it was ARM enough to work with existing other distros, but I guess not. I learned something new today, thanks!

Congrats. May I ask why you choose to go Fedora rather than another Debian derivative?

I like your art style!

This made me laugh. I’m sorry for your loss.

It would be great if it could become a virtually universal social media eventually, but for its quirks to be understood by everyone, some critical mass of first adopters must understand the fediverse. So I think the fediverse will self-select for technically knowledgeable people at first before eventually becoming accessible to the public, not by any fault of its own but by virtue of having been around long enough and grown enough of a community to attract the average person from traditional social media.

I also think there are different instances and communities for people with different priorities. People interested in the ideas behind the fediverse can congregate on lemmy.ml (because that’s where Lemmy’s developers are, right?) and in FLOSS communities, etc., while people looking for a social network that won’t use them for profit can flock to region-specific instances, etc.

I thought the same. Pretty cool.

I’m using GymRoutines. It’s for gym routines only, not weight loss or nutrition. It’s perfect for my needs.

“Shitty-er” to rhyme with “prettier”, I would guess.

I liked having less space between my hands (left hand on the keyboard, right hand on the mouse). I also rarely use the numpad and other keys, so the negligible sacrifice was worth it for better ergonomics.

Weather

OpenWeather: shows weekly overview by default; if you select one day it shows you a nice graph of precipitation and temperature for that day. Good for figuring out the forecast at a glance.

Weawow: the Hourly Details view is amazing for scrolling through the next few days hour by hour and seeing precipitation amount, precipitation probability, temperature, and so on all at the same time. I love the detail it provides. Also, I believe the beautiful pictures in the app are community-donated.

Store apps

Neo Store: Doesn’t allow auto-updating, but I like its layout significantly better than F-Droid.

Social media

Voyager for Lemmy: neat compact layout allowing you to see many more posts at a glance than any other app I’ve tried (Jerboa, Liftoff, Thunder). Also lots of nice features like marking newly created accounts with a baby emoji, ability to share comments as nicely formatted screenshots (I didn’t think I’d use this feature but it’s honestly so convenient!), and ability to customize swipe behavior.

I love the contrast between the sharp background and blurry shape of the figure.

I love this style! Is it charcoal?

Does it pull data in like Mint did, or do you have to put it in manually? That’s the most important thing to me.

Yeah, this would be great.

Is it the one on the Google Play Store by Dapper App Developer? I couldn’t find anything on F-Droid :(
