If you go to uni, hanging out with people aroind your son’s age is implied. I bet the guy might feel out of place as well - but consider he is now living his dream of studying in university. He is surrounded by 18 year olds and he has two options - be isolated for nothing but his age or make friends and experience life he couldn’t experience when his age was appropriate for it.

It is likely your son and this guy just clicked. When I was around 16 I had a great virtual friendship (played World of Warcraft together, only met once) with a guy in his 30s. We also just clicked. I’d say he was my best friend in that guild. We are not in contact anymore but I still remember that friendship fondly.

I understand your concerns as a father and I’d recommend discussing it with your son with open mind. Friendship is just friendship, I don’t think there is an age limit on it.

Florisboard looks nice - I’m using Unexpected myself due to customizability but Floris seems plenty customizable while being a little nicer and simpler. Will have to test it a bit

It was indeed during the API exodus. I used the official app so I didn’t have strong feelings about it, but I really hated how they handled it all. Of course it was discussed everywhere and I was like “I hate it like everybody else, but there isn’t really an alternative” and someone was like “uhm, how about Lemmy or kbin [or other stuff I don’t remember I think]?”.

I looked into it, got confused, asked the guy some questions and they were kind enough to explain. Looked into it more and made a slow transition. Really helped this was at the peak of the exodus so everything was firing up here.

Red Dead Redemption 2, by far.

Honorable mention to Elite: Dangerous while playing with a HOTAS

Time for another GPU then

Any particular reason for those claims?

I can vouch for lemm.ee being nice

Lemm.ee is a great neutral instance and the admin seems nice, you probably made a good choice choosing it over .ml. Glad to see you were not scared away from Lemmy by it. Welcome! It can get confusing, but it just takes time. It’s a nice little place, overall and feels more like reddit used to be once.

And meanwhile Slovak government is hard at work to climb as deep as possible into Russia’s ass. And the solution to email threats is apparently a AI face recognition camera system at schools.

I’d say your sandwitch is no longer applicable.

Huh. Thanks for the pro tip :D

Idk, elderly are prone to rambling on and sometimes not making much sense. Perfect use of AI if you ask me.

Akchually… it’s not The Onion - though it is about The Onion

Wtf is up with this timeline?

The land of the “free”

I live in one country that could be next. Putin already has useful idiots here daying thay we should leave NATO. Putin also tried to push for these countries thay used to be in the Russian sphere of influence not to be in NATO.

You make one step back and Putin makes two forward.

Yeah… and Ukraine clearly shouldn’t have signed without it

And that was the issue of the memorandum - it should’ve included something akin to Article 5

Agreed, Copilot was one of if not the best named AI I think. Why they would want to rebrand it to something so bland so quickly is beyond me

All Americans? As in every single individual? I don’t think so. There are many who will suffer under Trump regime I’m sure.

The generalized Americans? Hell yeah. And I bet majority of the individuals I mentioned above would back it up
