I don't even really plan to use any bridges, as I understand it those are for if you want to pass messages from other services through your matrix server. I would rather keep those separate personally, even though I understand certain benefits, including having all your messaging in one application instead of numerous.

I always heard that rolling out an initial Matrix instance isn't terrible, especially with ansible and/or docker, but I also have heard that a lot of updates have breaking changes and that updating your server is less simple.

As someone who runs your own Matrix server, would you agree with this sentiment or disagree and why? I have considered rolling out my own many times but get discouraged by those who say keeping it updated is kind of a nightmare. For example, a private tracker I am a member of used to have a Matrix server and an IRC server, but they eventually dumped the Matrix server entirely to reduce complexity as well as the fact that fewer people used it.

G.L.O.S.S. comes to mind. Too short lived.

True, but the size of those early generations it's easier to fit a standard size SSD in.

The iPod was genuinely dope in first and second generation.

I mean, I don't disagree, but Google is just as awful and most people only really have a choice between an Android phone and an iPhone so not "supporting" one or the other isn't really an option for most people who, you know, want a phone.

Linux phones need a lot of improvement and growth before they can be a functional replacement for either of those, sadly.

That's honestly a bit surprising, the media went whole hog with accolades for him in 2014 when he first openly talked and wrote about being gay.

Remember when it was viewed as not appropriate to write stories about Apple's tax dodging because Tim Cook came out as gay, and how important and brave he was.

Remember that Apple, and specifically Tim Cook, has bent over for Trump over and over, including helping fund his bullshit ass ballroom?

Maybe we should accept that absurdly rich gay white men can be just as big of shitbirds as absurdly rich straight white men and just as willing to sell out their own countrymen and their own sexual identity community.

A show I forgot from my prior post because it's so new is Joe Cappa's Haha You Clowns on Adult Swim. It's very loosely modeled after the classic sitcom My Three Sons and follows the loving and earnest adventures of 3 beefy Chad teens and their love for their equally beefcake father who recently became a Widower as they lovingly try to fill his broken heart with love. The sincerity rounds the bend to being absurd and funny, but the relationships on display are all loving and healthy.

Joe Pera Talks With You

Joe's love for his grandmother will make you cry. Then his best friend Gene's sweet relationship with his sons will make you cry again.


The Midnight Gospel

It's only really in the final episode of the series, but Duncan Trussell's relationship with his mother was beautiful and sweet, as evidenced in the finale of this short series.


Nathan For You

While Nathan For You really isn't about Nathan Fielder's relationship with his parents and they are only minor characters in the series, in their few appearances, you can tell how much love and respect he has for them. His father loved Taiga soft shell jackets, and as a Jewish family, his father was devastated when Taiga paid tribute to Holocaust denier Doug Collins in one of their winter catalogues. Nathan would go on to create an entire company dedicated to making soft shell jackets in the style his father liked called Summit Ice Apparel so his father could feel comfortable wearing clothing from a reputable company that didn't promote Holocaust deniers. 100% of the profits of Summit Ice go to the Vancouver Holocaust Education Centre in Vancouver, British Columbia.


Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist

As noted in a comment reply about Bob's Burgers, largely made by the same group of people behind Bob's Burgers, but back in the 90's. A sweet relationship between a single father and his aimless but golden hearted adult son.
