Here's some things Lemmy could potentially implement:

• a default sort that favors smaller communities
• better onboarding for new users that guides them into discovering new communities
• giving recommendations to other similar communities

Huh, that's what it looks like when you comment \0

People weren't really nitpicking.

• it's obviously bad to send an email with a plaintext password
• the website owners had apparently already resolved the issue
• it does not mean the passwords were stored in plaintext
• the OP sounds like a skiddie in a bunch of comments and doesn't seem to understand how most websites with auth work

I'd argue it depends on who is serving it and what their intentions are. I don't think it's necessarily bad. I went to a local Juneteenth celebration and the food stands were serving some fried chicken, collard greens, jollof rice, etc.

What do you mean? It's: landlords cannot discriminate against renters using housing vouchers. As in: landlords cannot deny renters just because of they're paying rent with vouchers.

I used to mod on SO and a few SEs, but deleted my accounts a few years back. It's just a mix of low-quality submissions, over-bearing moderators/admins, and bad culture & etiquette. I still regularly use SO when looking up questions, but I haven't participated on there in a long while. I've mostly gone back to smaller forums and mailing lists.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Yuzu has any proprietary code. Folks have to go to other websites to download the Switch firmware and keys needed to play games.

My sister, who did her master's in nutrition or some related field, says multivitamins are a waste of money. She suggests getting bloodwork and seeing if you're deficient in anything. And if you're deficient, it's better to change your diet than buy multivitamins (if possible).

With that being said, I still take a multivitamin...

People put carrots in pizza sauce, like Rao's: https://www.raos.com/products/pizza-sauce

And roasted tomatoes are great with some peppers and onions.

If you have a memory-mapped peripheral where there's a readonly register, I could see it being const volatile.

When do you DIY vs call in another carpenter?

It was just a dock, so not terribly expensive but expensive enough to hurt if it got lost.

The whole album is great. I think I still have the CD somewhere!

Honestly, I don't mind this considering the examples given.

Whoa, this is a trip. It'd be cool to possibly get an option in our settings to automatically redirect to old.lemmy.world

It wouldn't be much different. Was it noticeably different when you went from a 32 bit to 64 bit computer?

I lived nextdoor to a massive section 8 apartment and never had any problems fwiw. Sucks that you had a hard time but it's definitely a ymmv thing.

Just because someone is using a voucher doesn't mean they're going to attract crime. Where I lived, it was mostly immigrants that were new to the country.

Just switched over to Firefox like a minute ago. So far, so good. Kinda a bummer to have to manually import my saved passwords.

Also, how are profiles handled? In Chrome, I had a separate personal and work profile. Is that easily doable in Firefox?

Yeah, title should just be:

Don't waste your money on an awful Android tablet on Black Friday

I feel like most average people (regardless of age) don't even know alternatives to internet browsers exist, so why would I expect a judge to know? They're obviously not experts in every field, it's up to the attorneys to inform them and persuade them one way or another.

Are people here unable to see that the layman might not know what Firefox is off-hand?

There is a novel material called LK-99 that was purported to be a superconductor at standard temperature/pressure, but it turns out it may not actually be a superconductor. If it were true, it would've been a revolutionary breakthrough.

Can you turn off hardware decoding and see if it works then?

Tbh this is one of the reasons why I'm looking forward toward Sublinks

Under-the-screen fingerprint sensor works less than half of the time. At night and in bed, it blinds me.

This is my biggest complaint. The "old" style of fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone worked so well, but they replaced it with this shitty one.

I don't write books but I've helped written a couple textbooks which used LaTeX. I personally use TeXstudio, but there's many clients out there. If you appreciate beautiful typesetting, you'll likely enjoy TeX despite its learning curve.

Scihub for most things. You can also sometimes find preprints (or contact the authors) on RG.

It's a joke

I've had Ziply Fiber before (but not 50 Gbps) and would max their upload for months and they didn't even bat an eye. It's the only ISP that I would ever recommend.

Depends. I use vendor forums for vendor-specific Q&A (like the forums for ESP32, Mbed, FreeRTOS, etc). For other project questions, I open a Github issue with the "question" tag. Before, I used Reddit but it was rare that I'd get a "good" answer out of it.

It's a bug IIRC. It might be fixed in one of the upcoming upgrades: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1315

It's the largest community by subscribers, I would be surprised if folks haven't came across it by now...

Here in Seattle, the main scary natural disasters are earthquakes. We haven't had a major one since 2001 or so, but supposedly there's a massive one coming relatively soon.

It started off okay, but I'm about to give up on Lemmy after a couple months.

My main problems are:

• The comments here are hit-or-miss. Every big thread deteriorates into pedantic arguments. It's seemingly a worsening trend and is on-par with the bullshit you'd see on Reddit.

• Lack of comment moderation in larger communities. If a thread devolves into off-topic arguments or name-calling, the mods should step in.

• The default active post sort is pretty terrible in so many ways. It's much too slow to change and you'll often see repetitive content. Smaller communities tend to have no visibility, but instead I see 5 posts from the same large community.

• The comment sort is bad as well. If the community self-moderates through downvoting, then why are downvoted posts near the top? I think this leads to toxic threads and pointless arguments.

• Lack of any content. I wouldn't mind a bot reposting an RSS feed or something into a community just to start discussion... But many are vehemently against that idea (leading to small communities dying completely). I'd argue the reason !technology@lemmy.world hasn't died out yet is because of the l4s bot.

• Way too many politics. I'm so tired of seeing political discussion online---but here, you're just bombarded with it, even outside of political communities. Better moderation might help keep things on topic.

• Users tend to browse All. While this gives people an opportunity to see new content, I think this might harm smaller communities in the long run. This is similar to how threads lose quality once they reach the front page on Reddit.

Maybe I'll come back after a year and see how things are. But as of now, Lemmy provides nearly zero value to me.

I mean the \0 literal
