The solution is to not treat communities like official and unique subreddits.
On Reddit there’s the PCGaming subreddit. On Lemmy there are more than five. Subscribe to all, or the most active ones, or the ones you align yourself better with… And that’s it, there’s no need to be concerned about which individual post goes on which individual community for a topic, it will federate and others will read it just fine.
Let’s make Debian or Arch just work
Wonder why that’s extremely rare on ARM devices, especially those with modems, and rarely works beyond proof of concepts on some very specific devices? Its not like you’re the first to have this idea.
I’ll use my de-Googled and update-blocked S23 until it’s physically unable to boot up, and hopefully by then I’ll find something that can run this OS, assuming it’s ready
My young students can’t unzip a file or navigate to a folder that’s inside too many other folders in a hierarchy
How many months away are we from Windows requiring a subscription to use, with a cheaper version for the OS + Office and a more expensive that also bundles AI?
Here in Brazil there’s a famous brand of chocolate called Baton. The chocolate sells well in general, but lots of kids ask for their eggs during Easter, and they usually come with toy cars or action figures or a water gun or whatever.
In one particular Easter, the eggs came with a toy that was a long cylinder with a smaller, rounded tip at one end.
This cylinder had just one feature: it vibrated a lot when you turn it on.
It also came with a minuscule pen, with almost no ink, you could attach to the device. Their explanation was that it was a fun vibrating pen toy. When asked how’s a pen that vibrates any fun or useful, they had no answer, and why the device was significantly larger than the actual pen, also no answer.
So for Easter that year, kids got a penis-shaped vibrating toy… And a pen.
I want wires everywhere I don’t care fuck wireless signals give me wired headphones, controllers, networks
Me and my homies hate antennas
Now, though? I find wireless earbuds vastly nicer and more convenient for phones
Love the fact their tiny, non-replaceable lithium batteries means they’re quite literally disposable products you’ll have to keep buying and throwing away.
Except Fairphones are usually overpriced for the quality…
Hell yeah, that’s a fantastic idea!
Buy the avocado toast and overpriced latte after all, because we won’t ever get the chance to use any money saved for retirement
While I agree older generations are always complaining about the habits of newers ones, always dooming everything, and that progress is good and unavoidable…
…I honestly do think we should sometimes sit down and re-evaluate if older habits have a place and if their criticism can bring some truth. I’ve been moving away from the hyper-connected and convenient modernity we live in and adopting older habits like writing my notes with paper and pen, under a candle light, and it’s honestly been fantastic for me, just as an example.
Monkey’s paw curls. Wish granted: you will live for 10 to the power of 107 years, you’ll outlive every living and non living being, you’ll transcend mortal understanding, you’ll play with the flow of entropy - to see birth and death, hot and cold, to feel the final, guttering pulse of the last black hole as it surrenders its hoarded information to the void.
And you’ll have a little popcorn kernel stuck between your gum and a tooth during this entire time.
Halo is long dead. The brand name is the one thing left.
That really does not address my concerns, not one bit.
Let’s collectively fund an island where we can host Signal, Tor nodes and ThePirateBay in international waters.
While I wouldn’t wish this on anyone, it’s amazing how self-destructive this is. Greta is an internationally famous activist. Flagrantly violating and abusing a person with world renown - along with dozens of other activists - is a radically stupid way to hasten international isolation.
You’d be correct most of the time, but this is Israel we are talking about. They know there won’t be any consequences because claiming they did something wrong must mean you’re a nazi, and even if you get over that, daddy USA is there to protect them anyway.
Israel could livestream a soldier killing Greta and they would face no consequences whatsoever.
There are classical, “best of all time”, titles that an anime lover like you would defintely enjoy. They’re not available on Crunchyroll, they’re not on Amazon Prime, Netflix, you can’t purchase a copy. A few had selected censored releases in VHS, good luck hunting them down.
The thing with piracy is that it’s not just a money saving trick used by teenagers, it’s also the only way to truly watch the media you enjoy regardless of what some media conglomerate thinks - they no longer get to define how, when and what you’re going to watch. You have to do a bit of setup once… yes that sucks, but from that point onwards, you’re free.
Sociologists love making that claim, but it’s not true.
A long childhood followed by extremely experimental puberty is indeed a biological feature of our species.
There have been societies that suppressed childhood due to labor needs, but that came after many more had thrived respecting it.
Modern childhood is indeed new… Compared to western European tradition, not to our species as a whole.
