I heard these furry suits are crazy expensive. Really kind of him that he's working so hard to make her dream become true.

And takes well-informed (buying) decisions with a high focus on quality.

The sea in New Mexico is all dried up because of of all the wildfires caused by fireworks from rich guys' yachts.

As far as I know there is no plan to phase out Manifest V2 at Mozilla. As long as V2 and V3 are active in parallel it shouldn't have a negative Impact on adblockers etc.

Unlike others, I'd expect a signicifant decline of posts as not only many users but also loads of communities would be lost. That's why from my perspective users and communities should be evenly distributed across instances.

On top of that, there should be a feature to move entire accounts or communities to other instances. That way a community including all its members could just be migrated before a major shutdown.

Similarly, I think it would be a huge disturbance for the email system and possibly the entire internet world-wide if Gmail went down next month even though there are in theory plenty of alternative providers. Or supermarkets. If the IT of Walmart, Visa/MasterCard, Amazon AWS, Microsoft etc. have an outage it always has huge impact.

Lemmy as a whole isn't that big and far from being critical infrastructure but we all want it to grow we should bear in mind that huge central services are always more risky than many small services.

Anyone found the specific numbers of acceptance rate with in comparison to no knowledge of the gender?

On researchgate I only found the abstract and a chart that doesn't indicate exactly which numbers are shown.

edit:

Interesting for me is that not only women but also men had significantly lower accepance rates once their gender was disclosed. So either we as humans have a really strange bias here or non binary coders are the only ones trusted.

edit²:

I'm not sure if I like the method of disclosing people's gender here. Gendered profiles had their full name as their user name and/or a photography as their profile picture that indicates a gender.

So it's not only a gendered VS. non-gendered but also a anonymous VS. indentified individual comparison.

And apparantly we trust people more if we know more about their skills (insiders rank way higher than outsiders) and less about the person behind (pseudonym VS. name/photography).

Oh no, I'll lose all my followers on cybertruck!

Couldn't you just draw in the sand with a stick? I think if there's an ape who's fluent in English handwriting that would make it to the news pretty fast.

In case you haven't done that already, also check out YouTube. I'm often suprised how much copyrighted documentaries are available there.

And for the retro fans, there's not only control center but also control center legacy!

I often take the link from the project's Wikipedia page if it's big enough to have one.

As a 'last resort' if you don't find any technical tasks in the projects you'd like to contribute to, there's also plenty of other ways to help:

• Provide new translations into foreign languages
• Create detailed bug reports
• Do in-depth tests of new beta versions or nightly builds
• Provide a download mirror for the software or seed it via torrent
• Donate money to the core maintainers
• Improve the documentation
• Create (video) tutorials to improve the start for other users and make the software known to a broader audience
• Register in forums and help other users with their issues

Or simply ask the maintainers how you might contribute in a meaningful way. I'm sure they'll appreciate your offer!

That's an amazing idea from my perspective which would really help the fediverse in general. Your proposal would solve not only the issue of instances disappearing completely but also temporary outages. For example Feddit.de as one of the biggest German instances had several technical issues lately. And as instances are typically administered by volunteers during their freetime that's totally fine, accepted and expected. Such a failover concept would heavily reduce the pressure on their shoulders!

1. Newer washing machines vary in time depending on how dirty your clothes are. So the same program may take 50 minutes or 90 minutes. This cannot be solved with a regular timer.

2. If you have a job with varying hours, you might want to start the washing mashine when you're heading home. Then you're clothes are ready to be hung as you arrive and they aren't laying around for hours.

3. If you own photovoltaic, you might want to time energy intense home appliances such as washing machines, dish washers etc. to a period of overproduction.

Not saying, these issues are super important but there definitely are use cases for smart devices. However, I'd always recommend using a local / self-hosted rather than a cloud-based solution.

The Guardian counted 50000 only. Any higher bids?

If you're browsing 'all' without any filters there's still a good portion of porn and porn-like content that's objectfying and thus probably repelling women.

If it's just a one time road block and you don't want to drive through the water, you could have still get out of your shoes and carry the bike over there. On the left side you could probably even hop from trunk to trunk.

The path looks nice and thanks to the little creek, it's probably less crowded. ;)

Drunk driving and murder are potentially dangerous for the child as well. I agree that it's a very difficult topic to tie parental rights to one's criminal records.

Tbf if there are shitloads of reservations it's not 'unused hotel rooms' anymore. I think hotel rooms' should be rather a temporary solution while the government is searching for a more permanent shelter. If you decide permanently use a hotel to give people shelter, that's a great thing but then it's not a hotel anymore.

Then he might not understand that it was on purpose. Get one for 50, have dinner there yourself for around 45 and give him the card with the few residual bucks.

Thank you. Unfortunately, your link doesn't work either - it just leads to the creative commons information). Maybe it's an issue with Firefox Mobile and Adblockers. I'll check it out later on a PC.

Hey bro, you mind if I watch you being alone?

Really? I bought an Ender 3 V2 three years ago which is quite famous in the 'scene' but also famous for a number of issues. As a newbie I asked a lot of beginner questions and I constantly received very supportive and helpful answers.

'Yeah that's a known issue but you can tweak X, change setting Y or replace part Z to work around it'

Same experience with the FreeCAD community. Amazing people and a software that works pretty well with some initial exercise.

Thanks for pointing that out.

Seems like a wild idea as... a) it poisons the data not only for AI but also real users like me (I swear I'm not a bot :D). b) if this approach is used more widely, AIs will learn very fast to identify and ignore such non-sense links and probably much faster than real humans.

It sounds like a similar concept as captchas which annoy real people, yet fail to block out bots.

Amazing video which must have caused a huge amount of preparation work. Thanks for sharing!

I use Mull on Android and so far I'm satisfied with it.

Agreed! Comments on comments were the last reason I sometimes went back to the original YouTube app!

Also it's just a case of anecdotal evidence and definitely not a recommended practice, it was interesting to read this guy's experience. Thanks for sharing!

The study differentiates between male and female only and purely based on physical features such as eye brows, mustache etc.

I agree you can't see one's gender but I would say for the study this can be ignored. If you want to measure a bias ('women code better/worse than men'), it only matters what people believe to see. So if a person looks rather male than female for a majority of GitHub users, it can be counted as male in the statistics. Even if they have the opposite sex, are non-binary or indentify as something else, it shouldn't impact one's bias.

Or maybe a transparent plastic bottle is the water equivalent of a penthouse. You're being carried around by a servant all day and you've got a nice 360° view on the surroundings.

Unlike these poor homeless droplets in the ocean. Being pushed around by the wind permanenly, fish pooping on you and no privacy at all.

Guild Wars 1

he will do almost anything, including lying, swatting the families of whistle blowers, committing securities fraud with very little consequence, or sacrificing worker safety, to keep that price high.

Just bear in mind that all these shady practices might have a short-term positive effect on the internal cost matrix but at the same time a lasting negative effect on the external reputation / revenue. I recently read a lot of posts in EV forums where potential buyers bring up Musk as a major factor not to buy a Tesla.

For me personally, the cars as well as the stock would be far more interesting without that manchild of a CEO.

They just describe all the meat based on the animal's size in relation to a horse.

Chicken? < Horse Horse? = Horse Beef? > Horse

You have to continuously feed momma dollie little gold nuggets during the pregnancy to cover additional need for nutrients.

Boost (Android) does that as well.

If you just decentralize only the physical hosting part how would you handle responsibilities such as moderation and other key decisions? If there's one central instance deciding on what to allow and what to block or on topics such as advertising, trackers etc., wouldn't Lemmy end up with similar issues as Reddit and other traditional social media websites?

True but I'd hope that there's still some review for the bigger projects. Of course, it's possible that a malicious link is inserted right before I go there but it's still more reliable than just chosing the first result on Google.

I thought all these planes were crashing because they didn't have enough 737-MAX parts. Like some bolts and screws missing here and there...

If you use a middleman such as archive.is it's not their bandwidth anymore but the middleman's. In most cases these services don't act as a proxy but store a backup of the article on their servers. Not sure if that's always the case though.
