You almost never hear someone tell a good joke about steaks. It really is a rare medium well done.
I knew a fortune teller, she was rather short but she told me a great joke about steak. Unfortunately, she went missing a while ago and no one knows where she is.
She’s just a small medium at large now.
I’ve seen that Medium article shared here before and find it very unconvincing. While I agree that framing the Proton CEO as an evil Nazi lapdog is a bit much, here’s a comment I saw on Lemmy another time this was discussed that explains why the article is flawed better than I could.
If anyone wants an example of Québecois swearing, I recommend checking out Lorembarnak. It’s lorem ipsum but tabarnak-ified.
They didn’t list alternative platforms, all of those are alternative frontends or apps for YouTube.
This is giving me [email protected] vibes
I just took an edible and it’s starting to kick in, but I still want to figure this out.
Getting stoned and getting the magic rocks in my homelab to do my bidding is one of my favourite ways to use up my time on this Earth.
looks like their product is intended to feel as close to Microsoft as possible
Maybe that’s why they picked a name really easy to mistake for another office software suite, to mimic Microsoft’s atrocious naming schemes :P

No gender-neutral language for our non-binary siblings? For shame, comrade.
This comment reminded me, I have met some people who played in a French/German improv league (LIBER). They’re based in Berlin and perform in both French and German. I’m not sure how they incorporate both languages, but I believe it’s just a free-for-all, speak what you want, answer in whatever type situation.
but eyeing OnlyOffice because of their cloud service.
Je ne m’attendais pas de voir un thread au sujet de l’impro sur Lemmy!
The improv match format you’re referring to is pretty much exclusively mostly a thing in the Francophone scene. L’impro-match, or l’improvisation gravelienne, or l’impro style LNI started in the 70s’ in Québec out of the experimental theatre scene in Montréal, before spreading to other French-speaking countries.
The closest I’ve found on the Anglo side of things is stuff like theatresports or the Canadian Improv Games. There are similarities but the hockey theming is absent and the formats vary in multiple ways.
EDIT: I found this improv league in Spanish in Argentina who follow the same format with a direct link to the OG Ligue Nationale d’Improvisation. Like I mentioned in a reply to another comment here, there’s also LIBER in Berlin, who play in both French and German. When the referee reads the theme card, they specify if the improv will be in French, German, or a mix of both.
Here’s the link on Github. It doesn’t seem to be on the main F-Droid repo, only IzzyOnDroid’s, so I don’t know why the other commenter tried to link to it on the main repo.
When you post a link, you can add a thumbnail image URL! In the default lemmy-ui, it should be right under where you upload an image :)
Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People, basically someone calls in to talk about anything they want with the host (comedian Chris Gethard). The caller can hang up any time, the host must hang up after exactly one hour.
People call in to talk about so many different things, and Gethard is really good at getting people to open up in a very genuine yet casual manner.
I got a new job, and the group chat is on WhatsApp, so I’m looking into running a Synapse server with a bridge to it. I really don’t want to have to use Meta’s apps on my phone.
From what I’ve read so far, it seems like it’s going to be the most convoluted install process I’ll have encountered in my self-hosting journey. I’m excited to tackle it, but also a bit overwhelmed. Which is why I’ve been putting it off :P
It should be up to businesses how parents decide to raise their newborn?
Fuck off.

Purple is my favourite colour.
Congrats on the kid! You sound like you’ll be a much better dad than your coworkers.
For anyone wondering, lemm.ee is hosted in Finland, as per this post by the admin.
I had to know the context for this so I looked it up, it’s from a marketing promo for the 1995 WWF WrestleMania arcade game. The whole video just screams 1990s.
