Wild thing about this picture is that Wikipedia is basically the only permanent place it can be found. The post there says it's from Getty, with a link, but that link is now broken. SNL sure isn't letting this footage out. From the WP article: all the rebroadcasts of that episode use footage from the rehearsals, where she held up a different picture and didn't tear it up.

Let me introduce you to your personal savior, cast iron.

yeah, just a little buggy sometimes

Evangelicals finding new ways to reach the unsaved.

I mean, it's all very new, but worth considering eventually I think. There are some who would say that you own all the content on your server, so an explicit statement otherwise might not be a bad idea :)

Yeah, if the admins want to specify a license, sooner is better. The stackoverflow content is actually governed by three licenses, as they changed over time, and so they just list date ranges for each one.

Yeah, this matches my impression. Hopefully it won't take 10 years! I was sort of thinking that an explicit statement of open license would encourage some people that it's worth putting their content here.

At first reading I thought, "oh no, they killed the dog!". Then I realized they're just playing. Then I looked at those "I wish I was dead" eyes.

Is this a rhetorical question? One very very strong password that is never passed to a third party, managing a separate passwords that do have to be sent over the internet, is definitely a better strategy. It makes 2FA redundant for the majority of standard threat models, and that's why bitwarden includes support for those timings too.

I'm glad this got left up, because it doesn't seem like a rule violation to me. It benefits at least some other community members, like me, who didn't know there were any options at all for a TV launcher.

$12/mo goes a long way toward a mini pc or stick pc. Maybe not the right option for everyone, but it's been great for our family.

Am I reading this right?

The maker of Pyrex glassware and Instant Pot has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection ... brands also include Corelle, Snapware, CorningWare, Visions and Chicago Cutlery, ...

Pyrex seems like a way bigger deal than instant pot, and those others are also well-known. Is this just a restructuring thing where they will screw creditors and then continue on? Or they will sell off the brand names to some new companies that may or may not keep the same quality?

Same, but we knew it was going to be about tortillas didn't we.

That's a good point, but I think it's also another motivation to have some explicit statement of licensing: people who prefer a different license will know they should move to a different home instance.

Yeah, you have to wait until other people are ready to switch. I just mention signal each time one of my friends complains about Facebook owning Whatsapp, and eventually some of them switch. I don't know that about the ads, but I guess I'm not surprised.

I think some others here are missing the point of the question. Right now people are arguing about the fosstodon mods policy that all posts there must be in English. People are coming at it from every angle you can imagine, and maybe some you can't. It's amazing! Here on Lemmy we had our own little drama with behaw (de)federation a while ago. (How did that play out? I didn't pay close attention.)

I think OP is asking how to convey that drama of fedi culture. Not (necessarily) the technical aspects.

I wonder if some people are mad about this because they read it as "please come take care of my stuff, and pay me for it". I read it as "Do you want to rent in the area? I am willing to give you a steep discount if you also take care of my dog."

I miss reddit too, but I'm realizing that I miss what I thought it was, and not what it is becoming. It's useful to remember that for mastodon it took years, and many separate waves of migration, for it to have its current use base. So, when people say it will take time, and it will be hard, this is what they're talking about.

Maybe you know, but since 2016 whatsapp uses the same open-source encryption technology developed by the signal foundation. This means, on the one hand, that most user content is protected from facebook by encryption that it does not control, and on the other hand that the signal app (also made by the signal foundation) is a readily-available replacement for whatsapp when people are ready to switch.

My reading was that the base price is $40/night, and there's a further discount for dogsitting. This sounds like an amazing deal.
