I study Software Design where I'm the "class representative", work 20h a week, I'm also planning my wedding and I have to manage a lot of family and friend stuff. There's a lot on my plate and feeling overwhelmed has become the norm for me.

What helps for me is:

  • I keep a master to-do list where I put in all my tasks with their respective deadlines, categorised in topic, but all collected in the same list. (I use Microsoft To-Do for that)
  • I plan days where I do certain tasks and on those days I make myself a prioritised list in handwriting which tasks to do in which order
  • I also share a calender and to-do list with my partner, so we can keep on track of eachother even when not communicating everything we do directly
  • And I think the most important thing to do when I'm feeling overwhelmed is just starting with something. The next point on your list without considering what else you could do.

That's the gist of what works for me. There are also some motivational techniques for "how to start doing". One of those is "eat the frog" where you pick the worst item from your to-do list and finish it, then the other tasks will be less daunting. Another one is starting with a super easy or small task to get you into a flow state of actually doing stuff. Both work for me in different situations and mindsets 😄

I hope that helps somehow.

Also was ich so rausgelesen habe scheints hauptsächlich an Panik, Kreislaufproblemen durch kaltes Wasser oder an Krämpfen zu liegen. In nem anderen Artikel von ihnen führens auch an, dass die Leute sich oft einfach überschätzen was ihre Schwimmfähigkeit angeht. Strömungen in Flüssen sind das nächste, da kann man schon mitgerissen werden, und dann ist auch Verletzungsgefahr gegeben.

Aber ja, ich bin voll bei dir. In ruhigen Wasser kann ich ewig schwimmen und bin ich mal müde dann leg ich mich einfach flach auf den Rücken. Manche können das scheinbar einfach nicht.

Find ich immer wieder arg wie schnell sowas geht. Da bin ich froh, dass ich als Kind sehr gut Schwimmen gelernt hab und mir mein Vati auch beigebracht hat wie man tun soll, wenn man nicht mehr kann.

Vor kurzem hab ich erst (leider) ein Video gesehen in dem ein Paar sich filmt als sie nur mit den Füßen in einen See gehen, der maximal knietief am Ufer ist und auch relativ flach hineingeht. Er fällt um, kriegt Panik und bewegt sich immer tiefer rein, sie will ihm helfen und wird von ihm dabei aber runtergedrückt. Beide können nicht schwimmen, gehen unter und das wars.

Ich möchte anmerken, dass ich mir sowas nicht regelmäßig reinziehe 😅

Contributing to open source projects is pretty much just altruism.

If we're talking about protection of people integrating open source code in their proprietary code we'll always have issues. It doesn't matter if we declare our projects under GPL, AGPL, LGPL, CC or whatever, unless they do shoddy work, we won't be able to know what code snippets, libraries or frameworks they're using when source code isn't disclosed.

People that want to be assholes will always be assholes. If you feel like giving back, contribute to an open source project. If you don't, don't. But making it about evil corporations is a bit meh. Even a company like Amazon is actively contributing to improving Java, offering the Amazon Corretto JDK for free. So the path forward may just be trying to be the change yourself, and making sure the company you're working for is also giving back somehow.

A fork is effectively your own repo, so you can do with that as you please. Afaik MIT license doesn't hinder you from removing anything.

Yeah it's quite unfortunate with iOS. I'm on android but afaik iOS just doesn't support all the PWA features.

Which is super interesting in its own right, because when you look back at the first iPhone, Steve Jobs actually announced at first that it wouldn't have a Software Development Kit for native apps and all applications will be web based. They obviously didn't stay on that path, but I find it quite ironic.

Short and sweet, thanks for explaining.

 

So Jerboa broke on my phone just now and I didn't want to stop browsing Lemmy. Unfortunately no suitable alternative was found so I just decided to check if I could open it in my browser and install it.

To my surprise, it worked. And it works really well quite frankly. Sure, the UI is different, but I'm not at all missing any features.

Did any of you guys try it as well? What's your opinion?

If not, did you even know that was a possibility? It quite frankly never crossed my mind, because Reddit and other platforms always force you to use an app when you open them in a browser.

Yeah, I hope they expand immensely on public transport, biking and walkable cities. Having to build car-centric cities would make me sad.

If I recall correctly that's how it's always been with Diablo. I've remembered each D3 season there was a different build for each class that would work really well. So while the content was always kinda the same, the game forced you to try other builds if you wanted to beat the highest difficulty level consistently.

Looking at how uniques work at the moment they always seem to affect skills directly, groups of skills, weapon types or damage types. So if you want a strong build you have to get uniques that stack well and buff the same kind of tools you want to use.

Logically you want to buff one damage skill to the extreme but since there sometimes are no overlaps and uniques are sometimes skill specific, you run into the issue, that a different damage skill just doesn't do much damage anymore. This concludes in you essentially having to use actives and passives from your ability tree that also buff your one "super-skill" or boost survivability. Since you're not restricted when it comes to buffs, the most logical choice is then to just fill all remaining slots with buffs or skills that activate buffing effects. Even mobility gets pushed out in high end builds for more damage.

I don't like it, but as soon as you make an effect that only works in one context, you have effectively ruined build variety because theorycrafters will just min-max the hell out of it. There probably is no good solution that helps build variety and at the same time makes uniques feel interesting and exciting. Because when everything is viable, unique effects will mostly just be stat boosts and thus boring.

Na bumm! Ziemliches Konstrukt. Danke für die Infos, ich werd mir das reinziehen 😀

Heißt das du hast einen VPN Zugang in dein Home Netzwerk aber der Zugang ist über den VPS?

Würd ich auch gern machen wenn das so geht, hast du da Tipps für mich zum Recherchieren wie das geht?

Hello zusammen, ich hab im Zuge dessen, dass Google Domains wohl aufgelöst wird, vor meine Domain dort inkl. Web- und Mailserver zu Ionos auf einen Debian vServer zu migrieren.

Hat jemand Erfahrungen ob Ionos da die richtige Wahl wäre oder ob es sonst noch attraktive Anbiter für sowas gäbe?

Gern auch Feedback ob mein Vorhaben überhaupt Sinn macht 😄

Edit: Danke für den ganzen Input. Nach ein bissi zusätzlicher Diskussion mit Freunden wirds jetzt -> Domain zu Ionos siedeln, Mailservice von ihnen nutzen, Website derweil gratis bei Firebase lassen und dann künftig auf dem Linux VPS selfhosten unter Debian.

 

Hey guys, I'm currently studying computer science and have used Google domains for a while to host my own website. In lieu of domains being discontinued by Google I'm thinking about moving every service I've used there to a Debian VM, which would be hosted by a company in my country, but I would have root access.

This would include a Web- and a Mailserver pretty much. I'm not a beginner when it comes to handling a CLI, but I am quite rusty and would prefer a solution that I set up once and don't have to maintain weekly to keep it going.

I'm aware selfhosting entails some kind of maintenance, I pretty much just don't want to be overwhelmed and suddenly lose access to my mails by being lazy.

Serverwise I've setup Apache and Postfix already in my studies, but I'm not sure if those are the best solutions.

I'd really love a few pointers and do's and don'ts if you'd be so kind to help me out 😄

Thanks!

(I've posted this to a different community already, but this one seems more active, sorry if you see this double!)

Edit: Thanks for all the input! I'll use Ionos to register my domain and their free Mailservice they provide with it. My website is currently still hosted with firebase, but I'll move it to a Linux VM also hosted by Ionos...

Yeah, it probably works on an HDD as well, but load times will be awful. I think this gets blown out of proportion. These AAA games or any game which had to load assets or whatever which exceeded available memory always had issues with load times etc. on HDD. So asking users to run it on an SSD is quite sensible to me.

We should argue though if a size of 125GB is actually necessary... Looks like it's time to upgrade my M.2 SSDs from 500GB to 2TB at least 😅

 

Since it was answered, quick summary:

Communitys have connected instances. If the instance you're looking for is not yet listed there, you can discover it. Only communities listed as blocked will never pop up in your feed or searches.

Original question:

This probably got asked already, but I couldn't find exactly the answer I was looking for while searching.

On all the lemmy sites there's a link to "linked instances" which, presumably, lists all instances that your instance has knowledge of. Does that mean that instances which aren't listed won't be accesible? Or does it mean that no user has yet tried to access the instances which aren't listed.

The way I see it, only blocked instances are inaccessible. Am I correct in that assumption?

Thanks a bunch 🤠

Edit: I'm asking because I'll want to join some super specific local communities eventually and I'm worried this might be a problem.

 

Reposting this abomination from my Reddit Account because this is important information. Uncle Bob would be proud.
