It's going to be mine!
Maintaining foss digital painting app Krita, a woman and according to my wife, a stillroom maid. I paint, sculpt and like languages. Also RPG: https://valdyas.org/galsin/.
Note: I very selectively follow back because my timeline is already overfull. I am also bit cautious about who I let follow me, sorry for that.

@FrontaalNaakt Uh, wat? Zo!!! Onverwacht!!!
@Owlor I still miss my mom, though. She died days after she turned 65. Born in 1939, she bore the brunt of the hunger winter. She learned how to cook anyway, and taught me. We still me dished from her hand-written recipe collection she gave me when I went to live on my own, away from home.
@Owlor outside food was bbq on a hibachi, hot pot or cheese and bread. Otherwise we would eat inside, on a proper table with a proper table cloth.
@Owlor I remember my dad getting a promotion, and from that moment, no pork ever entered the household; we had arrived and only ever ate beef and chicken.
I also remember that for some time before that we only had meat twice a week. That was in the early seventies. And mom would save up by being extra frugal before the grandparents would visit, so she could go all out with stewed beef flank, sliced broad beans and fresh potatoes.
@Owlor I've no idea about planked steak, though, we weren't wealthy enough to afford steak.
@Owlor Fondue... This was also a thing in the Netherlands, back in the seventies, eighties. It was rather tasty, even with the burned tongues and the grumbling about having to wash the curtains next day by the biggest proponent of the event, my mom. I had a nightmare about those dinners only last night. 0/10.
The Roemertopf , I still use it. It's prefect for making slow-stewed mackerel (and not much else). Fill the bottom with veggies, put the mackie on top, put in the oven, then enjoy.
@helle @smveerman I couldn't find their website, could you share the url with me?
@njion It's an interesting survey, more in the way the questions paint a picture than in the way answers can be found, though.
My various personas were built in face-to-face table-top RPG, not on internet places.
I'm still a fully human catgirl, though.
🔁 Bachelor's thesis survey! Please boost! 🔁
As many of you already know, I'm a cognitive science student currently working on my bachelor's thesis about the relationship between internet users' identities and their online personas.
Specifically, I want to see how that relationship might be different for cis and trans individuals, as well as for entities with non-human identities.
I prepared a short survey to collect the data I'll need for the thesis and I would greatly appreciate it if you take the time to answer it and share it around, both on fedi and elsewhere! It is meant for individuals of all gender identities and ages and shouldn't take more than 15 minutes to complete.
Thank you for your time :)
Thanks everyone! Even though I still would prefer a cutely colored laptop, both Tuxedo and Slimbook are now on my list: I don't need or want Windows, and I hadn''t realized laptops had become so much more powerful since I bought this lemon of a Lenovo Yoga.
Now I just need to decide...
@tuxedocomputers @Takiro I think I was too picky... I filled out all the options, and the resulting list was empty...
@BBC But let's be fair. If the USA were a functioning democracy that upheld the rule of law, he would have been in an orange prison smock decades ago already.
Not that my country is any better, rule-of-law-wise
@BBC Um, is there a debate? For reals? FOR REALS?
@davidho Shareholder value, for the shareholders who own private jets.
“Two people deeply familiar with the Charleston 787 plant told the Prospect they had particularly acute quality concerns over planes that were delivered to Air India.” 😱
@Takiro really confusing... I can select all kinds of options, but then nothing happens. (I want a 14" laptop with preferably a touch screen, quad hd, no numpad, no Windows, 32gb ram, 1tb of storage and a touchpad that _works...)
@Takiro Especially since all my hardware currently is black or silver, and that's it.
@Takiro I am not getting through their website, but it reminded me of slimbook, which is also an option.
Still, a bubble-gum framework 12 would be so cute...
@Takiro Oh! That's an option. Let me check!
