Congrats

Starting drinking every night is so easy, but stopping altogether is so hard. very commendable to those who decide to stop.

Hello friend.

Love the idea of this post! Miss the good old days of IRC or early Twitter etc.

I guess I'm passionate at the moment about the future, in a world that seems to be bogged down in the past. I'm trying to also figure out what my other passions are and trying to figure out what makes a good life.

This is the exact reason I failed my driving test 7 times before finally passing (pass rate in UK is ~60%). It's hard to describe to people that it's not that you're necessarily bad at the task, just the anxiety causes you to react in a bad way.

Thank you! Maybe Keybase is worth adding but git support is not one of its stand out features IMO

Thank you

Thank you :)

Nice idea, feel free to send over a pull request
Re:Tools of the Trade, from Hacker News on Sunday September 09, 2018 @05:51PM (#17947971)
This is something I'd definitely be interested in adding to this list. Trouble is that services are changing their pricing very frequently.
Indeed...although from testing this the only thing they gather are the names and mutuals of your facebook friends with profile pictures.
Very interesting! This tool only seems to collect the profile picture and provide a basic laggy interface to view it. Likely the tool you used previously for this dones't work thanks to API Facebook changes.
True I bought this as a one off since this was the only tool I found to gather the data easily.
Re:America’s Teens Are Choosing YouTube Over Facebook on Friday June 01, 2018 @08:41AM (#17204737)
As an 18 year old the only things Facebook is used for in my circle is:

1. Facebook Events for invites 2. Facebook Marketplace 3. Facebook Groups of interests 4. The occasional profile update or "on this day" post

With the news of the new Facebook dating service, it seems that Facebook is moving away from users reading a single feed and having separate parts for all functions. For sure, it is not used to share or read anything meaningful in my circle.

Re:Snapchat launches Spectacles V2 on Thursday April 26, 2018 @01:05PM (#16933660)
Absolutely not true for my demographic (18 UK). Everybody is using Snapchat stories still because it's more "personal". Instagram Stories are used mostly by brands.

Believe so but development is slowing
Re:Awesome IRC on Saturday March 17, 2018 @10:47AM (#16607180)
Happy to accept a request for it if it's good...never used it myself though.
Re:Awesome IRC on Saturday March 17, 2018 @10:46AM (#16607175)
Big fan of WeeChat
Re:Awesome IRC on Saturday March 17, 2018 @10:46AM (#16607172)
Absolutely they are the founding fathers of IRC clients
Re:Awesome IRC on Saturday March 17, 2018 @10:45AM (#16607169)
Very true...took a while to compile what I have so far but looks like I missed a few popular ones.
Re:Awesome IRC on Saturday March 17, 2018 @10:45AM (#16607164)
Yep I'll merge any good changes
Re:Awesome IRC on Saturday March 17, 2018 @10:44AM (#16607156)
Thanks for the submission @buovjaga. Happy to merge any PRs into the list with your ideas!
