I’m pretty excited for getting married in the next three hours!
Edit: I DID IT, LEMMY!
Lemmy to become mature enough to be a full replacement for Reddit
Already has
Not really, if you browse the big communities it has enough users but for more niche communities its not

The fediverse is something I’m excited for and it’s still in it’s infancy so it’ll be intersting to see how it plays out as it starts getting more polished and user friendly.
Despite the doom and gloom of AI I think it’s been really cool, and one area I’ve seen it help is for my relatives where instead of me having to solve basic tech issues AI has helped. When it develops into a full on companion that will do things it asks them to I’ll be bothered less and less.
Specifically, good things on the World Wide Web: research. The amount of good information available is incredible, compared with pre-Internet times. Weather forecasts, what the space telescope is looking at, what’s happening in other parts of the world places in their own voice.
Sure, there is misinformation as well, and some people will cast doubt on anything they don’t like or try to drown it out, but get past that, and this is a golden age of knowledge.
I’m excited to see my two teenage daughters perform together in their theater camp production in a couple of weeks. Seeing my girls growing up so fast can be bittersweet, and I relish these moments when they are so clearly full of joy for what they are doing. They will even have a duet together!
I feel really happy for you! I’ve got two older daughters who are both into their performing arts and nothing will reduce me to tears quicker than seeing them blossoming during a performance, doing things that have taken years and years of practice and which I could never hope to achieve.

Not just coming back, in a week! (For futurama at least)
Whaaaat?? I had no idea! Where is it being hosted??
Sonarr at the ready!!!
Sinopec built the world’s first commercial scale solar power to hydrogen plant last month. I thought we were decades away from this with a bunch of oil companies exploiting policies with “blue” hydrogen, but the legit green hydrogen economy is going to be a thing in my lifetime and that’s amazing.
I dont know why im struggling with this question. Work is going well, but I don’t really have much I’m looking forward to, atm. I feel like everything I have planned is more stressful than fun.
Sometimes I pick something arbitrary to look forward to. Like, make a reservation at a restaurant with great desserts for 3 weeks out or something and look forward to that. Or decide I’m gonna be excited about Amazon announcing new hardware in September because maybe we’ll get more kindles with USB C charging.
Hmm, this is actually a good idea. I should write down some ideas.
I’m going to try to keep the SpaceBaby’s name out of this, but I am genuinely excited for the step change the next generation of lift vehicles will bring to space exploration.
I’ve become thoroughly depressed with how we are mishandling our own planet, and I know there are huge risks in believing that finding new places to fuck up will solve anything (also, it’s a pipe dream - terraforming isn’t something we could really hope to achieve and anything outside our solar system is just too far away) … but, dammit, my 12-year old self dreamed of spaceships refuelling in orbit, resupplying permanent missions on other planets/moons, and now it might actually happen.
