While other people have answered your direct question, I think it’s important to think about it from a slightly more abstract POV as well.

A lot of people left reddit because they were unhappy with being forced off of 3rd party apps. Lemmy provides a fundamentally different (from reddit) mechanism to protect against that sort of centralised overreach: federation. It’s also one of the unique qualities which differentiates us from reddit.

If any instance becomes the de facto standard, as lemmy.world is dangerously close to being, it compromises the strength of having federated communities.

It’s in all users best interest to avoid centralisation tendencies, and most people would be better suited spending a little time to consider which instance they are best aligned with, and moving to that instance instead of just staying with the most popular instance.

What the actual fuck?

^(Who uses light mode? My eyes!)

Yep, pretty much.

If you watch to the end, the reason she can’t get to her online classes was because her ISP’s configuration CD was windows only.

So if we’re looking to find fault, it’s partly Dell for insisting everything would just work, partly Verizon for not having a good Linux process, and partly her for not just calling her ISP for tech support.

Tired during day -> Caffeine -> Can’t sleep well at night -> Tired during day

That’s a feature. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I heard it’s not even a swedish-made electric penis pump, but a Chinese knockoff brand electric penis pump from Temu.

It took me longer than I’d like to admit to realise this was satire. Pretty good read, TBH.

I know it’s a joke, but this really rubs me the wrong way, as it plays off the idea that homeless people are homeless because they’re deviants somehow, not just unlucky individuals who fell through the cracks.

Fact is that giving homeless people a sizeable cash injection and a place to live often has very good outcomes in them being able to turn their lives around.

Good work by the author on punching down.

Kinda inspiring TBH. No matter how bad things get, at least I’m not driving around in a garbage can on wheels.

I’m still just curious about who’s on your waifu pillow.

Yep. And just to be a little more precise, since the distinction is a bit subtle: an emulator typically involves translating byte code so that you can run a binary on different hardware. A compatibility layer translates OS calls so that a binary can run on different software.

In the latter case, the binary still runs, as is, directly on the CPU because it’s compiled for the same instruction set architecture (x86_64, in this case).

Kids these days don’t know about rocky pokey. Sheeeeesh.

Work on farm, can confirm. Ugly veggie? Straight in the food hole.

It’s true. All the hamster furries run in big wheels to keep the tube pressure up and the packets flowing.

That’s wild! I think it’s too late for me, though. It’d be like trying to get into One Piece now. I’ll keep it in mind, if I’m feeling nostalgic.
