Returning to OpenProject for management of projects and tasks in my organisation. It had helped us previously a lot and I am super happy to have it fully restored soon 😍

Dad joke, lil joke, ghost joke 😎 The Holy Trinity of jokes.

Say them that they are from regnum animalia and they will understand it as an insult, as some “anomaly”…

Iam even more happy to be using Linux 😎

I want to assume that you are not a heliophysicist 😬

And imagine telling someone that Sun is a star…

Because it is hard to put there Jesus. He, same as floppy, died to became a save icon. /s

Cool. For learning Esperanto there is a great site https://lernu.net/ and also Duolingo, and others. After some time came back and comment about your progress, I am interested in your story 😉

I suspect that both they are using Affinity as a gateway drug For Canva Pro, and are super happy about taking even more customers from Adobe.

Aging is a botch! Once we will get great control over our anatomy. Not yet there.

Cool! Not libre, but it enables new category of people to comfortably transition to Linux. I can imagine the anger at Adobe 🤣

There are articles about nearly everything. And everyday are published more 😅

ali li pali e sama 🤣

Well, the tweet provides additional point, so…

Yes, all languages are made up. But some are more made up :-)

One of the reasons that I love free / libre / open source is its high acceptance of Esperanto as an interface language. I myself also helped translate bunch of them (now I am searching for money to pay others to translate them :).

Facebook had a program of volunteer translations years ago. I helped a bit by rating existing translations. Then some law came that prevented for-profit corporations to use volunteers as translators and the program was shut down. Similar with Google, who still has parts of interface in Esperanto. Rumors go that Gmail was once fully translated into Esperanto, but the political decision went to not deploy it…

Heh, I am pretty deep embedded in the Esperanto community. I have started 18 years ago and during that time made a lot of friends, some enemies, some love partners (really, we talk together in Esperanto!). In fact, I have founded a nonprofit nongovernmental organisation that support volunteers to write better Wikipedia in Esperanto - and I love the work and it even pays me sometimes. And because of my activities, I have travel around the planet. I live in Europe, and once I have traveled in one month to Seoul, South Korea and Benin and Togo in Africa to Esperanto meetings. That was crazy! During that month I have fulfilled my 2 childhood dreams - to climb a bamboo and to eat a sugar cane ;-)

So, yeah, it enriched my life pretty drastically. I would say that the the biggest long term benefit that I get was wast widening of my horizons. The world became “smaller” for me / more of it became “my home” and I have become more “world citizen”. It may sound cheese but it feels great :-)

There are many local groups over the planet, some event practically every day, many Telegram groups with pretty active community. On Lemmy, there is mostly [email protected]

Finally Europe is waking up. Although, this can be a slippery slope. Military industrial complex in USA get out of hand and we have to learn from USA mistakes in that field. Let’s have strong military for deference, but in a way that do not promote arms racing, or being overrun by our own companies.

Beside obvious recommendations from other posts (visit a doctor, do exercise, eat healthy, sleep well etc)…

The truth is - aging is a bitch! It starts probably even before birth and start clearly manifesting itself usually in 30s. So welcome!

And the “best” part is - currently we do not have a medicine to reverse it, so at some point at the age of around 80-90 it will most probably kill you unless something else kills you first, or unless we develop effective cure. I don’t want to be morbid here or spread anxiety. I am writing this to accent the seriousness of aging and the need to tackle it. You can request your government to provide grants to researchers to reverse aging or if you are European propose researchers to apply for already existing grant call from EIC, propose your medical universities to participate in XPRIZE Healthspan, etc.

As you are quite young, if you are generally healthy, the best thing you can do really is doing the basics (as your mom told you) AND ESPECIALLY campaigning for development of aging-reversal therapies! Those are the only hope to be still kicking well in 80s in good health, and beyond.

If you are more interested, there is a community [email protected] and I also recommend the book Ageless by Andrew Steele, which provides great balance between scientific rigor and entertaining approach to public.
