Thanks!

Inside the cable there are 8 or so smaller wires and when I looked up the cable I couldn’t find the same one anywhere

By “classical” barter, I mean a kind of system where you’ve created a whole system of measuring the value of one good against tens or even hundreds of others. E.g. a can of beans is worth a carton of milk or half a steak, a chocolate cheesecake is worth five bowls of porridge etc.

I’m thinking more like can of beans same value as milk = steak = cheese cake etc

And some good faith to prevent friends from trying to like give someone else like a raw deal. So like realistically some portion of gift economy, like can of beans for a steak, can of beans person later on gives steak person a “good trade” later on to sorta balance it out

The Beehaw financial report with alyasha

our hopefully-final update of where we stand is a break-even of $54 a month or $648 a year. (please once again ignore OC’s estimated yearly budget–we don’t determine it lol)

our expenses are currently:

• $48/mo toward our host, Digital Ocean. (reversible. if we need to commit to further than this it is also likely we will seek another host since DO is on the expensive side)
• $2/mo for weekly backups
• $4/mo for daily snapshots of the website, which would allow us to restore the website in between the weekly backups if need be.

for a total of at least $54/mo in expenses. this may vary from month to month though, so we’re baking in a bit of uncertainty with our estimation.

we currently have, for the month of June:

• $85/mo in recurring donations (at least for June)
• $620 this month in one-time donations

for a total of $705 this month. our total balance now stands at 726.51.

that balance means we now have about a year of reserves currently, if we received no other donations and have no unexpected expenses. i’m sure we’ll have churn in our monthly donations and such though, so please don’t hesitate to donate on our OpenCollective page if you’d like to keep the site going.

Nice i’ll promote it a little in community promo

Yes.

Matrix (the most popular app is Element) is to discord What Lemmy is to reddit.

Closest atm is making multiple accounts and having 1 acct only subscribe to memes, 1 to tech etc.

Sht sib, i just recreated one of my DMs and that fixed it! Can’t recreate public encrypted rooms, but at least it’s an improvement! Thanks!

Any tips for like public encrypted rooms? Since can’t recreate them and leaving/rejoining didn’t fix those rooms

That was the last straw

Imagine if fb/discord/ig had the volume of problems that matrix has :(

Yeah. I just reinstalled both in-case I had an old version.

The message don’t appear at all. With verification failures, it displays something like ‘waiting for a key’. No warning or anything, it’s almost like android element has set desktop element as a blocked user.
