They’re thick in the “ads bring us more money than making improvements” phase of corporate bullshit now.

Reddit still can’t make a better app than the ones made by solo developers who just did it as a passion project, but they’ve got enough money to throw around for a Superbowl ad spot and an entire ad campaign on YouTube.

Great point. He probably read it as deeply as he played Path of Exile.

Depending on who you ask, a lot. Or very little.

For me today, though, it was the large downtime earlier. It’s big by Fediverse standards, microscopic by Reddit standards, and as-is it struggles to keep stable uptime some days.

she wouldn’t prescribe it for me any more anyway, until I stopped using cannabis (even though it’s legal here)

For what it’s worth, don’t discount that type of advice. Get a second opinion if you think they’re wrong, but it’s just that there really are a lot of medications that can have unintended interactions with other substances, legal or otherwise.

Usually these solar arrangements are just feeding back into the grid to offset energy consumption for whoever owns them (or to make some money themselves), but it could in theory also directly supply local infrastructure like EV chargers, streetlights, other utility lines that draw power, etc.

I guess I’m of the opinion that this may as well be done. Parking lots are already terrible for the environment given that they just trap heat and, you know, take up valuable land space that could better be put to other uses. But if they’re going to exist, may as well turn them into solar farms to offset their net burden somewhat.

I feel like it should be called “primary” labor or something to that effect. “Skilled” labor that can’t function without “unskilled” labor to support it can be called “secondary” labor.

Seems to make sense to me. The “and the government doesn’t want them to” part is the explanation for why it is nearly impossible to get.

There is some degree of distinction, I’d say. Bisexuality is attraction defined by the male/female binary, pansexuality is attraction regardless of gender. A person can be bisexual and attracted to cis men and cis women, but not pansexual if they aren’t attracted to trans or agendered folks.

Granted, a lot of people who say they’re bisexual are probably actually pansexual, but stick with the label that is more widely used and understood out of convenience.

It’s just that we have to make space for our 5,358 partners and the telemetry data they need.

You can moderate communities on other instances, but you can’t create one yourself.

Grabbed a screenshot of the mod list of !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone, for example, which shows a few different instances represented within the mod team.

Unfortunately, the average Mastodon user is generally opposed to Trump apologists.

Just ban country music and you’ve covered like 80% of it.

To clarify, there is no compromise of encryption protocols, but they are using social engineering to trick users into giving up their credentials.

Never trust any QR codes, especially ones from an unfamiliar source. All someone needs to do is grab the basic QR code from the login page, send that to you with a simple “Scan to add me as a friend/join our group chat” message, and you’ve inadvertently approved someone to access your account—no “hacking” required. That is what is happening here.

Welcome! Happy to have you!

Undershirt with a zipper on back, sweatshirt with zip-up or open front over it.

Yeah, it had the largest community for Final Fantasy XIV on Lemmy up until they announced the planned closure. At least there’s an alternative on .world.

That being said, just because other laptops are cheaper doesn’t make them better. I care about minimizing e-waste, so I prefer to buy durable devices that last. For that reason, I bought a Macbook 12 years ago that still works fine, while a friend of mine is on his 4th laptop in half that time.

It’s an illustration of the Sam Vimes “Boots Theory”. Not saying that buying overpriced Apple hardware is the way to go, but just that it’s important to look at more than whatever’s cheaper, since a lot of laptops that look like they have good hardware for the price are not meant to last more than a couple years.
