Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like infowars, selfhosted and groups. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was pondering. But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the...

They beat Pittsburgh Penguins 7-1 on Monday and Boston Bruins 7-2 tonight. Comments URL: https://tildes.net/~sports.hockey/1k3i/for_the_second_time_in_a_row_the_dallas_stars_have_outscored_the_dallas_cowboys Votes: 8 Comments: 2

Most of my family members (notably everyone in the older generation) are variously xenophobic (very), transphobic (plenty) and racist (enough). They're openly right wing populist party voters. In family gatherings, or even in online messaging, I normally ignore them or try to divert the conversation away from their stupid political takes - even the ones who know I am pansexual are likely to say...

I've been thinking about this over the past few weeks after chatting with some of my friends about this. For some framing: I grew up with my parents not encouraging me to learn to cook and my Mom actively refusing to have myself or my brother in the kitchen because we always "made a mess". Before I moved out to university I'd only ever...

We had a fun thread last year about what came to mind when other people's usernames come up. It ended up turning into a cool little online intro of the history of your username, if you have one. There are so many usernames I don't recognise now that I'm back with a steady internet connection after a long time away. Mine is boring sorry...

I thought I would share my thoughts and experiences daily driving Linux (Fedora KDE Plasma) for the past week. Why did I switch from Windows to Linux? My plan was to switch to Linux once Windows 10 hit EoL in Fall 2025. This was due to my computer not supporting Windows 11. This past September, my computer broke (probably MoBo), and so I swapped...

What have you been doing lately for your own fitness? Try out any new programs or exercises? Have any questions for others about your training? Want to vent about poor behavior in the gym? Started a new diet or have a new recipe you want to share? Anything else health and wellness related? Comments URL: https://tildes.net/~health/1k2x/fitness_weekly_discussion Votes: 6 Comments: 3

For example, last night I had some bagels and coffee, went to the gym, and had some oranges at home. I felt perfectly full and didn't need to eat, but even on melatonin my brain wouldn't let me sleep, even until 2am, until I broke down and fried something on the stove so I got the worst outcome in terms of diet. My subconscious...

I've been researching internet privacy and fell down the rabbit hole of...well, internet privacy. I started with deleting Facebook/Instagram and switching to fire fox + plugins. I would like to make more improvements but I really have no idea how, it started with deleting socials and next thing you know I'm looking at LineageOS and de-googling. If anyone has any suggestions on where to...

I was thinking about one of the threads here about missing the specific subcultures on Reddit. Maybe we just aren't in the habit of sharing our interests or want to know who else is interested in the subculture. If absolutely forced to, I could probably blog about: Occasional game learnings - either new games or specific mechanics in games things in relation to the...

Crypto has always been an odd one for me. Considering I'm in the IT field and generally techy, I've always remained skeptical. That didn't stop me throwing about £100 into some DOGE, XRP and ETH awhile back. They peaked around $880 and I almost cashed out. I wish I had because they fell back and were worth around $140 for the longest while. Suddenly...

Every time I find myself in an ADHD related thread on the internets, I feel like I'm seeing my personal struggles being described by others (Anxiety, Depression, executive function issues... the list goes on). My intermittent attempts to seek out a diagnosis (or rule it out) end quickly with all the utter shite noise in the search results (literally everyone is selling something). I'm...

Live broadcast just ended, but it's available to watch in full here. And here is the full article about the Warcraft Direct broadcast - I have not read it though as it is very long and in depth. So here are the highlights and headlines: Warcraft RTS games news Warcraft III Reforged to be updated with a patch 2.0 Updates including new models, environment,...

What have you been watching and reading this week? You don't need to give us a whole essay if you don't want to, but please write something!

If you want to, feel free to find the thing you're talking...

So I've watched this If Neurodivergents Conducted Job Interviews Like Neurotypicals and one thing struck me as odd. Is it not like normal when somebody tells you they've been sick recently for you to share your own experience with similar condition? I do have ADHD and automatically share when this exact situation comes up, but is this like a no-no among neurotypical folks? Comments...

Hi, here is me asking for some advice. I currently have the Sennheiser CX True Wireless but I feel like they are too heavy, big, and uncomfortable for my ears to the point that I feel my earholes are being stretched. I am looking at AirPods right now despite not being committed to the whole Apple eco-system. They seem to be light enough and...

Like I did last time Trump was in office, I've been reading up on authoritarianism and fascism. Ur-Fascism by Umberto Eco On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder They Thought They were Free by Milton Mayer And if you want a hot take from someone who argues that Trump himself is not a fascist but rather something worse, here is a great video from Morbid Zoo....
