Hey, I had to help a relative with something similar last year. Basically, you want to look up local places that sell suits, and ask them how much custom tailoring they do. Many places will only do simple alterations like adjusting the hems to your specific arm or leg lengths. But some places can take a complete set of your measurements and have a custom suit made for you. Just tell them your needs and ask if they can help you. (In our case we were only looking for business suits, but I saw at least one place that did this for business casual too.)

You might be tempted to try to take your own measurements and get something made online by yourself, but in our case we found it hard to know if we were doing the measurements correctly, which is why I suggest finding a place to do them in person.

But really you want to start off with “Take On Me” and “Never Gonna Give You Up”.

@[email protected] it’s time to “cross the Rubicon” to full federation!

These are all excellent communities, and invariably some of my favorite posts of the day. I’m seeing them on lemmy.world, btw.

[email protected] - mostly games, movies, shows, and music in the cyberpunk sci-fi genre

[email protected] - music: synthwave, vaporwave, etc. A fairly new community, a couple different people have been posting

[email protected] - music community. I was hoping someone else would make the 300th post, if not I’ll post something later today.

[email protected] - a larger community, a couple of us are posting regularly, but could use more discussion

[email protected] - a community about how to help grow the fediverse. @[email protected] has been posting a weekly thread on “how is your [niche] community doing?” which is kind of like a support group for people keeping communities alive

edit: how could I forget, [email protected] - links to short stories online in all genres

I thought the swiss people seemed sometimes kinda "rude"or maybe a better word for it “cold” and a little annoyed

I have some Swiss-American relatives, and I think this is cultural. They just have a different set of indicators, they’re not going to be grinning and hugging.

I have a friend who went to London and just ate at Whole Foods all the time. So, vegans can survive.

“smoke copium, non-resident”?

They are 30-minute sessions. I did them in my car during work commute. Many public libraries have them. Here’s the first session: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eguDJPkjPwQ

I’ve used the Pimsleur language programs for a couple languages. It’s audio based: you hear a recording, and you say it out loud. A great way to get started.

This would make an awesome episode of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”

visiting a neat-sounding community and realizing all the posts are by the single moderator (and are getting less and less frequent).

This will be a key moment towards Lemmy’s growth or decline. Especially in non-tech/meme/politics communities, it’s so easy for the only poster be a single person who is posting daily, and who then simply runs out of content. Maybe the solution is for each frequent poster to post non-daily on several different communities. Anyway, check out [email protected], @[email protected] has started posting a weekly thread on “How is your niche community doing?”

if you took the world and seperated its humans by intelligence, the “idiot” group is going to be much bigger than the “PhD” group. Like…by a lot.

No… you’d have a bell curve. But even that assumes you have a single good measure of intelligence.

I kind of agree with the rest of your post, but I would have worded it a bit differently, emphasizing that people who found it difficult to start using Lemmy might still be worth having around. Also, I don’t think “as large as Reddit” or “small niche unknown” are our only options.

It’s [email protected] here, fyi.

Fake news. In truth, Sir Stewart Wallace’s schedule was filled with escapades, adventures, and tomfoolery, which prevented him from committing.

Yeah but you’re right.

I just say: “It’s like email. There are different email servers, but they can all talk to one another. If there are things you really like, you can subscribe to them, and if there are things you don’t like, you can block them.”

Or replace “email” with “instant messages”.
