The thunk and all the silverware and glasses rattling lol


This take is riddled with naivety.
Not only will Meta read, train AI on, aggregate and datamine, and correlate this data with your real identity, but when Meta announces that “the easiest way to be on the fediverse is to just use Threads” then all the people who avoided Mastodon because it was “too complicated” to sign up, all the people who are basically already signed up because they scroll Insta all day, will go with Threads instead of spreading the load out.
As smaller instances start to drop off under the load, under the lack of interest as threads grows and they shrink, merely mirroring the traffic of a centralized corporate entity, users start to flock to threads for its reliability and speed.
Then Meta pulls the plug, since “no one really used this ActivityPub thing anyway, it was too technical”.
Threads isn’t about beating “X” (lol X is in a death spiral, it’s only a matter of time), it’s about ensuring the Fediverse never rises up.
See what happened with Google Talk and XMPP.


Front-loaders usually restrict you from opening the door before they’re drained, or else some idiot would flood their apartment.
No, the second one says “Sept. 8th 2023” and that last panel is obviously British (you can tell by the teeth) /s


It’s worded confusingly. Let me see if I’m correct here:
If people prevent something being used by tons of other people for no good reason
This is not in reference to the lemmy.world users being prevented from using the instance, but instead is about the possible motivation of said attack
then this would be a very good one to “hold a grudge” against them for.
Continuing on to say that you could understand how a person could hold a grudge over a perceived slight
The way you worded it make it sound like you mean lemmy.world users should hold a grudge against the attackers for preventing them from using lemmy.world, which is why people are confused. It might have been better to say like “The attackers are probably retaliating for being banned or something”


You wouldn’t be able to lift the door without the spring acting as a counterweight. It’s usually a big roller just above the doorway on the inside (right near where the track curves in) with cables that run down to the bottom door panel.
So yeah, huge spring under constant tension.
It’s easy for really old posts to get necro’d in Active sort. Not necessarily a bad thing, but if you use the “feed” to keep up with the latest then it’ll cloud your listings a bit. A lot of people don’t look at the post date right away (especially those of us from alien site since we’re still operating on old habits).
Hot also had a bug that pushed old posts up, IIRC? Maybe i’m thinking of Active; I can’t remember off the top of my head as I type this. Anyway I think Active is based on recent comment activity and Hot is based on recent voting activity. Nothing wrong with either, but I am honestly appreciating the “Top X hours” methods to keep up with recent news and events and to keep things fresh.
We’re still in the “oh shit activity has increased by a factor of a thousand, we need to make the database not crash” phase of development of Lemmy (and kbin) so I’d expect that eventually the feed sorts will be looked at and tweaked. Just needs a bit of attention to get what you are looking for at the moment.
The fact that I’m still seeing this at the top of my “Top (Twelve Hours)” means you’re probably right? lol


I mean, they probably are technically worth more now…they just didn’t stop to think about what everything else would cost at this point lol

EDIT: oh you said “sploof” so I glanced over it. Seems the term “spoof” (as in to fake) has been telephone’d by stoners over the last 20 years because I’ve never heard “sploof” in my life. Sounds like some Rick & Morty shit.
Original post: Build a spoof, homie.
Take a plastic coke bottle, poke holes in the bottom about 1/8” across, in each of the feet
Stuff that bitch fulla dryer sheets
Blow your hits through it
Now it smells like you used fabreeze for bong water but at least it’s not blatant


OP:
I run Arch btw


Yeah, parler, gab, and voat…


This. I love the science SpaceX is doing. I love the EV momentum Tesla created (even if their own products are proving to be less than stellar, no pun intended).
Musk is a huge tool though.


If “Xitter” is pronounced “shitter” then I can finally get behind the rebrand


Yeah, Linux users have always had a blind spot for dependency hell when talking about freedom of choice.


Snap seemed like a cool idea until I tried it


These days, with “big data” analysis being possible on such a large scale, it’s possible to gauge the position of the general population, or of subgroup of such with ease. This makes it easy to divide and conquer, to manufacture consent, for whatever those who have access to said analysis desire.
I always tell people, it’s not about your data, it’s about our data.


The real heros are the creators who blog their scripts and link them in the description of the video 🥹you da real mvp
Or the woman singer who drank so much of her male SO’s cum that she had to have her stomach pumped
Viral word of mouth rumors were wild back then
