I’m a trans woman and generally nice person. I like video games, board/card games, Magic The Gathering, DnD, karaoke, tech stuff, and space stuff. I work as a computer programmer primarily using C# .NET. Not sure what else to say haha.

Arguably my favorite song ever. It encourages and motivates you to do the thing whatever that may be.
I know the secret to making a triple decker grilled cheese :-)
And my gf says she can make homemade alfredo or homemade meatballs.

I just came here cause my preferred reddit mobile app wanted money to work with the api or whatever. I’ve enjoyed being at Lemmy ever since. Granted my feed does seem to have its off days with not much going on. But that’s ok.
I haven’t really looked at reddit to tell what it’s current state is. Nor do I care that much because Lemmy “works for me”.
Just use whatever you like.
Idk what Pringles did to their formula… But I don’t like them anymore.
The Lays equivalent is wayyyyyy better. Just less flavors to choose from.
I hit the big 101000 recently. Time sure does fly by.
My mom sometimes uses “doomaflagidad” for basically anything. The only way I’ve been able to translate is by using context clues. Usually based on what we’re talking about or if she’s pointing or using hand gestures.
I graduated with an associates degree in 2006. It was hard finding a job for some reason even with a degree and a internship under my belt. I think it took me 3-6 months to find a job.
By 2008, I was in that new job and mad at my step mom. So i moved out and got a roommate. From there it was very good at least for me. Only thing I dealt with was work and my health issues.
2008 was basically the start of my adult life. The naive and confident me.
I had a severely long cross-dressing and denial phase since like 2000s ish. It is all a blur. Somewhere around 2008 I lived by myself and had the freedom to explore and experiment in private. And then somewhere around 2021 I realized that I’m trans, possibly before then but denial is a hell of a drug. And then on Nov 2022 I finally started hormones. And now I’m 2 years into hormones and happy!
I started hormones at the age of 36 and now I’m 38.
5, but with a body pillow and sometimes I roll over and switch sides.
My current partner and I are both introverts. The only reason we met is because we both dared to go outside to our LGS (Local Game Store). There, we met over a game of Magic the Gathering and some DnD and misc board/card games that I brought with me. And we started chit chatting over discord.
I eventually invited them over to my birthday at Dave and Busters where we bonded and there was a spark. I asked them out first, to which they said “yes” but they had a condition. We had to go on 3 dates before it was official. During that time I learned a lot about her life and I told her alot about mine. We were extremely similar in a lot of ways but also different in some ways. But the dates went really really well. And we’ve been steady for 2 years now.
In addition, I’ve somehow very quickly gained favor with their family simply by doing occasional board game nights with non-mainstream board/card games and just hanging out with the family and stuff. And also providing tech support on occasion haha.
Needless to say it has been going really really well. Way better than any of my past relationships. It only took me 39 years to get to this point in my life. As some of the comments have said, finding your love can sometimes take a long time.
Just try to be patient with finding love. And try to do things you like to do that are outside. That way you can meet people naturally with similar interests. There’s tons of events and things out there that you can go to just to meet people that like the same things that you do.
If someone gets pissed off enough at windows… They’re going to find alternatives. And once they’re locked into those alternatives, they’re likely not going to switch back. Until something with their current setup catastrophically breaks. As a result, its kind of too late for Windows to save itself. At least in my opinion.
I like the “Anbernic RG35XX SP” because it feels like an upgraded GBA SP. It has a foldable screen so the screen doesn’t get scratched while carrying it in my purse. And it has 2 micro SD card slots. One for the OS and one for games. Meaning you can customize it any way you want to.
I installed muOS on mine which even supports some “ports” of PC games. I love playing Stardew Valley on it for example. Though it does take some tech knowledge and research to figure out how to setup.
The buttons are nice and clicky. And granted, the 35XX SP doesn’t have analog sticks… But IMO, analog sticks always end up in weird spots on smaller clamshell handhelds. And I have other devices where I can play those kinds of games. So it works for me.
Its also nice and light. Larger handhelds like the steam deck are too heavy in my opinion. Heck I even have trobule with the switch sometimes and the 3DS XL haha. Maybe it’s just cause I’m getting old but those kinds of handhelds hurt my hands and wrists when I play them for more than an hour or so. But I can play on my RG35XX SP all day without any issues.
It does come with default software and a bunch of games. Which could be nice if you’re less tech savvy. But I personally like to remove all that stuff because I want MY games loaded on to the device and not a bunch of extra stuff I might not play.
Anbernic makes a lot of good devices so I guess it’s more of your personal preference. Maybe checkout some comparison videos on YouTube and see what you like ;-)
Ahh, apologies. Thank you! I’m learning new things! :-)
Yeah, I think I was referring to Doppler redshifts. Which is a very specific type of redshifts mentioned in that wiki article.
Again, thanks! :-)
So… I am not a scientist, just an enthusiast. But my understanding is that the speed of universe expansion doesn’t correlate with the speed of light. The speed of light is still constant.
Instead, the universe expansion rate is measured via something called the “doppler effect”. Scientists are able to use telescopes and take a snapshot of the night sky. Stars that tend to be brighter and more blue are closer to us. And stars that tend to be darker and more red are farther away from us. By taking snapshots and comparing it with previous snapshots over a long period of time, we are able to see a difference in color in each star which then shows us which stars are moving closer and which stars are moving further away.
Thus by measuring the speed at which the doppler effect changes, they can determine an estimate and compare whether the universe is expanding or shrinking and the speed at which it expands or shrinks over time without breaking the cosmic speed limit that is the speed of light.
Another analogy for the doppler effect is that it’s similar to what happens when a train passes by us. But in the case of a train, the doppler effect is with sound. As the train gets closer, the sound gets louder and seems more higher pitched. Then when the train passes us and gets further away, the sound fades away and gets lower pitched. All the while though, the speed of the train is still constant.
Hope that makes sense. And anybody that knows more than me feel free to correct me. ;-)
TLDR: if you’re a VRChat player/enjoyer, Find a cool world in VRChat to pose in with your favorite avatar by yourself or with friends and take a picture with the in-game camera.
Alternatively, “Elite Dangerous” is a great desktop background generator! Find a cool spot and take a screenshot. Boom. New desktop background haha.
/end TLDR
I play alot of VRChat and I found a cool world in VRChat called " VR art ‘New place’ ". It’s basically a VR art museum where you click on the “painting” and it teleports you inside of it. The scenery in the world is super super pretty and very cool; I highly recommend it.
What I did is I found a spot that I thought would look good for a desktop background. I posed on a dock facing a giant moon. And then used VRChat’s fly camera to give some distance. Thus making my avatar appear small in the center and expanding the view of the art in the world. That way the focus is moreso on the world with my small avatar in the center.
It’s kind of like placing yourself in the middle of your favorite desktop background. Granted I suppose any experienced photoshopper or photographer could do something similar haha.
As for Elite Dangerous, I’ve enjoyed flying my ship to a cool star system and then using the spectator camera to take pictures of cool phenomena and use those as desktop background too. Some of my favorites include: landing on Ring planets, finding a tiny planet with a view of 3 or more stars, or pictures of black holes.
I’ve got a modded Nintendo Wii which plays GameCube games and also does emulation from a large hard drive.
I also have a ps3 with two gun controllers and Time Crisis Razing Storm combo disc (3 shooting games included). And Killzone 3 which imo, is amazing. Especially with the gun controllers.
I also have an older xbox 360 white model with backwards compatability that still works somehow (knock on wood). So we can also play original xbox games in addition to Xbox 360 games.
All of these hooked up to a large flat panel TV on a swivel mount. And with 2 couches. And a fake zebra rug and smart lights for ambience.
I will entertain you with nostalgia. And couch coop or versus gaming.
And if we get bored of games. We can watch YouTube or Netflix or whatever.

I have Vaultwarden, it works with the web app and browser extensions. But is there a vaultwarden specific android app? I know technically I can use the Bitwarden app. But sometimes they update the Bitwarden app too fast for all the changes to translate into Vaultwarden and then im kinda forced to use the web app.
The web app is just a minor inconvenience to me so I continue to use it. Just wondering if there is an easier Vaultwarden specific solution for android.
