I thought Threads was supposed to be a competitor to twitter? I don’t understand how they’d even integrate with Lemmy instances. I’m here to see posts from boards/forums/subs, not from specific people. Would posts from random Threads user profiles start showing up on the main page?
Just checked on old.reddit. Can still see comments with negative votes.
Thin toilet paper is one thing, just use more layers.
Narrow toilet paper is another. Fuck places that use non-standard width toilet paper.
Is it that hard to read the post? OP is right, almost every TV on the market has the same cheap, shitty plastic feet, and they’re spaced as far apart as possible so you’re unnecessarily size-limited when trying to buy something like a bedroom TV to sit on top of bookshelves or a tallboy.
I’d like something more than 32" for my bedroom too, but I can find one new 40-42" TV on the market with a central stand now, and it is some obscenely expensive 4K OLED thing from Sony. I am keeping an eye out for older, pre-owned TVs as a result, but am yet to find any good deals.
Startrek.website seems to be run by the same people who ran r/startrek, some of the most ridiculous, petty, power-tripping stereotypes of neckbeard reddit mods you could find. Not that familiar with the other two, but lemmy.world seems to be run by reasonable people just trying to do their best.
Reddit once voted the end of an ep of Archer as the greatest moment in TV history or some such.
The moment in question was a shot-for-shot homage to an episode of Magnum PI. No one seemed to acknowledge this.
I’ve got pretty low standards when it comes to graphics. The first game had AA issues too, but generally looked much cleaner and more polished.
Anti-aliasing? Pop-in on textures and geometry? Shadows? Looked like some z-fighting there too.
There was a nice-looking model train, though.
Public warnings are bullshit, anyway. They post a reply, warning you for saying something you didn’t say, often /u/ mentioning you, then delete the original comment to cover their tracks.
So many dead franchises. The videogame industry really went in an unexpected direction…
Vegas Stakes - simple casino games, perfect time-killer for the format.
Wendy Every Witch Way - concept of reversing gravity has been used in other platformers since, but this might be the OG, and is very solid.
Maybe I’m just weird but I think the tech focus is better.
Like that’s where all this started. Kevin Rose wanted a better version of Slashdot, a tech news aggregator, so he created Digg.
And Digg was about tech news for several years before going to a general format, at which point it became trash.
And then Digg’s redesign killed the site and everyone flocked to a Digg clone called reddit, even though reddit was a clone of post-shittification Digg, not pre-shittification Digg.
Being tech-focussed really does help. I’d sooner deal with Well Actually neckbeards than the average Facebook user, even if I’m not just interested in tech news.
Forums worked really elegantly when you had an active userbase of maybe a couple of dozen people a day.
Megaforums… not so much.
It’s hard to avoid the US politics. Worse than reddit in that regard, it is giving me flashbacks to 2008 Digg where every second thing on the front page was about Obama and Ron Paul.
This was my first thought as well. My second thought is all the harms we’ve caused to ourselves in the digital age, and we only start to care when it hits our pocketbooks.
I think you’re just supposed to avoid heavy acids with them. And it’s one of those ‘lifetime risk’ dealies.
Not in the US, but yeah I do know a little Indian warehouse with a pretty extensive selection of stuff. I find myself preferring aluminum just due to the reduced weight, though.
I needed a new saucepan.
I’ve now replaced half my kitchen.
So what would federating involve, then? How would it change how lemmy.world users see lemmy.world?
