Not OP but my mom enters literally every contest she sees and has won a surprising amount.

Off the top of my head, not counting the plethora of gift cards:

  • A first edition Kindle Fire a month after it released. For being tech-illiterate, she ended up loving it and upgraded a few times through the years.
  • Several Roku boxes and Fire TV sticks, which are just now getting used because my parents are finally cutting the cord.
  • Lots of concert tickets for various bands, including Foo Fighters, Green Day, and Kiss.
  • 1-week all expenses paid trip to Nashville for some big New Year’s party that some celebs showed up to.
  • $600 cowboy boots.
  • $300 KitchenAid mixer.
  • A full set of Paula Dean cookware, and she LOVES Paula Dean.

The host of a tech podcast I listen to has had a Mastodon instance for years. I knew of the Fediverse because of that, but I always thought of it as decentralized Twitter and not necessarily a way to decentralize all types of social media platforms.

Your thoughts on The Orville? (lemmy.world)

When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness.
