I wrote my compiler in Haskell because it seemed that it’d be much less hassle compared to do it in a object oriented or procedual language.
That is not a feeling I'd associate with Haskell!!
Hello Mr Hong Kongnese. I'm a Brit. We don't boil water here and I've visisted Iceland - they don't boil it either.
Diu gau lan tsat hai - Merry Christmas. Enjoy your holiday.
Maybe in 10yrs time it will be immortalised in 'Lemmy Museum' as one of Lemmys first memes. Like Reddits Jolly Rancher or broken arms stories.

WTF do users think they have a right to see these at all? Just because Lemmy is open source doesn't mean you get to run the damn thing.
Also my condolonces on you being a Canadian.

Oh my god - I'd completely forgotten about that place! I just checked and it's stil alive: https://astalavista.box.sk/search/
I remember it being dark blue when I used it back in the 90s though.
I admin-ed my own vBulletin board around 04-06. The script itself cost about £90 back then. It was so great though. Small community of like-minded people all chattng. It was like a slow-Discord or a more intimate Reddit.
I installed a ton of extensions for people to play Flash games at one point too.
One day I accidentally forgot to pay hosting and the site vanished. Lost it all. Never bothered relaunching.
Top 3 most upvoted comments always being unfunny puns was getting insufferable on Reddit. Everyone was trying to be a fucking comedian - that's what was popular and got upvotes.
The early Reddit you could have long, interesting arguments with people and you'd both be getting upvoted because you're both making interesting points.
It honestly feels like my brain is waking up from a digital coma since coming to Lemmy from Reddit. My own personality and opinions don't feel pointlessly supressed and sanitised.
Don’t call other people stupid just because they see beyond your attempt to be clever.
You think I'm trying to be clever by speaking my own language?
You think I speak my own language to seem "edgy"?
The word "faggot" on reddit gets site-wide deleted which means even saying it in the UK subs where people will know the meaning it would get deleted. Yes it's happened and that's fucking moronic.
It'd be like banning Spaniards from their own subs for saying "Tiene negro gato ".
No. I'm 40yrs old and I don't keep up with the modern-day lingo. 😂
Also I'm British so I speak British English. "Fags" are cigarettes and "faggots" are a type of food.
