I’ve found the instance that I chose to be very unreasonably hostile.

I chose lemmy.ml when creating my account and apparently that instance is quite hostile if you don’t buy into CCP propaganda.
I suppose that’s why it’s posted in mildly interesting?
And then you see Adam Savage geeking out, nearly in tears about gauge blocks in his workshop.
Veritasum is amazing. Recently I rediscovered them with the video about the SAT question everybody got wrong. My mind was blow.
I’m not doing it. No. Bad!

I was working in a restaurant and one day a regular invited us to his place for after work drinks. He opened the front door into a monumental hallway with beautiful winding stairs and a large mosaic monogram with his initials on the floor.
We went into the main living area with a professionally decked out open kitchen, a 20 person dining table and a seating area with 4 large Chesterfields. The whole room is filled with art and antiques.
He asked me if I wanted to pick a few bottles of wine because of my good taste ( I’m a trained sommelier). He then guided me to his library and opened a secret door that led into the wine cellar.
Every large winehouse in the world was represented and he insisted on picking whatever I wanted. The sheer amount of stacks of Mouton Rotschild premier Cru, Tenuta Dan Guido - Sassicaia… We opened 4 bottles that would’ve cost about 10.000 euros together. No sweat.
He told us that despite the nice kitchen he never cooks. He goes to restaurants every day and on the weekends he hires top chefs to cook for his guests.
Then he asked us if we would like to go and have lunch in Milan, the next day (I’m from Belgium). He chartered a heli and had extra space for 3 persons.
He’s a modest guy. Rides his bike everywhere and makes his money selling real estate. He only sells high value property like castles and works one day a week. He’s not extremely talented but admitted he’s just lucky.
I realized that to become rich, you need money. Whether it’s your own or someone else’s doesn’t matter, you just need a lot.
True, I have one page with a few folders and gestures added to several icons. I’ve been using this setup for a few years so switching to different apps goes crazy fast.

In junior high we got low alcohol beer at lunch.

Yeah, about that. https://www.signal.org/blog/phone-number-privacy-usernames/
I mean, there are several FOSS transit apps around. The Netherlands, Germany,…
This is the way
Family trips were awkward. I would make detours and hide the reason but just pointed out there was something awesome they should see.
I also took part in global ops where I met irl with other players to move keys.
When I think about it the real life component of that game is amazing.
Ingress. I was obsessed with it. Couldn’t stop playing.
Yeah, that happened to me too.
