Depends on the flavor of the research. I’m all for still dying in my 70s but also am for being relatively fuckable until the very end.

Okay, I updated my previous comment to “stupid or lazy” instead of just stupid so it more accurately applies your bunk assumption.

Assuming it’s worth troubleshooting a broken just to interact with your salty comments calling people lazy because an email server isn’t working is shitty and elitist, regardless of whether you want to hear that.

There’s a lot of reasons to not use reddit, but the signup process is one of the first interactions users have with a site. Right now, reddit has a smoother experience than lemmy in that specific regard, and it’s better to acknowledge than pretend otherwise.

This was more celebrating that a problematic email server was preventing new users from signing up.

Assuming it’s because the user is stupid or lazy, that’s the elitist part.

They’re less funny to me when they’re intentional/satire.

I appreciate you.

It’s curious how so many people on this community about discussing the growth of the fediverse view the fediverse growing as a negative.

It’s fine for memes, news, and politics…but it’s still pretty lacking in a lot of the smaller and more unique content that made reddit worth visiting regularly.

As much as you’re okay with it, there’s plenty of people who would like to see federated services grow enough to be established mainstream alternatives. How much complaining has there been that Bluesky took off as as the trendy twitter alternative instead of Mastadon?

One could argue that proposing this bill has incited me to try IPTV now, before it becomes more risky to do so.

that unwilling to put in even the most basic effort, I don’t want them here.

That’s the sort of gatekeeping that keeps a service as a tiny niche forever.

I don’t see it as a defeatist attitude about their situation. It’s more about how they heard lemmy is a viable alternative, so are checking it out. That first interaction is a test drive. If it’s janky at all, it gives the impression that lemmy less smooth of an experience, so go back to the perceived superior site. Using the site that offers the smoother experience is what they’re doing about their situation.

Are we great again yet?

Premium subscription that allows messaging people out of your network and provides a bunch of analytics about profile/article views. I know sales, marketing, and recruiting people that love it.

I can personally vouch for that not causing a problem either.

I use PowerShell for damn near everything. But I’m pretty sure when you’re just typing yt-dlp, space, then pasting the url, then any terminal is as good as any other.

Maybe if you want to customize something, like make your own file naming convention, etc, GUI could be handy.

Even then, it’s probably worth learning the CLI commands and setting up a config file with any desired settings. Once that’s setup, you’re back to yt-dlp url again.

Sometimes they don’t tell you and just quietly update all of their usernames…

Me too. But in our defense, it wouldn’t be the stupidest thing he’s ever said, had he actually said it.

Genuine question…why’s this comment getting downvoted?

I use both torrents and usenet in my setup, and none of the usenet sites I frequent have done down like the big torrent sites in recent years. It seems like a reasonable suggestion.

My bad, wasn’t aware. Doesn’t change how I feel about the obnoxious writing style though, for the record.

I remember that user from YPTB. Absolutely made my day when people started ripping on the rambling way he writes.
