I was like… “How bad could this be?”

Oh …

What about the Year of Hell episodes? All the crew and Voyager look like they’ve been through the meat grinder.

I love how mine would get progressively more broken in English. Each day a new text with a new link and more failed grammar. Thankfully they gave up after a week.

I was blown away the first time. Only had the audio book but sat there, ok he’s describing the internet, vr, and a country ruled by corporate interests… Big Whooop. Wait, published in 1992? There’s some interesting predictions, and ideas surrounding technology but still grounded in reality. A bit of Alt-history.

Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson

As soon as I read the word Deliverator a smile came across my face. An actual Snow Crash reference.

This app is my daily driver. It gives me that RIF experience. The comments colors are actually a nice way to remember what part of the tree I’m in.

If you are like me, and want the pre-release updates. Use Obtainium to pull directly from the github.

It’s been fascinating watch all the people contribute to build an app from the ground up. Random contributors using their unique skill sets to add to the usability and interface.

PS. Tablet mode is awesome on the S8 ultra.

Using the Olympics as an excuse to make environmental improvements. Well done.

My face hurt by the end of the episode. I had no idea I was smiling the whole time. It really was that perfect mix of physical comedy but down to earth. It reminded me so much of The Orville. Definitely one of those I’ll go back to watch again.

The little slippers are cute.

We get it, you vape.

The wonders of open source.

The admin of the instance should have the highest authority, depending on the instance they might be happy to have someone take over.

Yet you give in out of desperation only to find the subreddit is private.

There’s another search engine, it has a nice interface that you can easily copy the !community@instance

https://lemmyverse.net/

Yeah, I mean it makes sense. You might need to report a comment to the mod of the community. But if it’s say an instance issue (spam or certain NSFW type) the admin of the instance you are a member of might need to be notified to de-federate in extreme circumstances.

The 502 error with Lemmy.ml due to connecting with IPv6. Once I disabled that on my computer, everything loaded. See https://lemmy.world/post/120796

Something must have happened during the upgrade yesterday and DNS isn’t pointing correctly. Hopefully it is fixed soon.

The flood when browsing all or if you have a ton of subscriptions is a feature that’s going to be altered in the next version. It worked when submissions were coming in much slower. Now there is a ton of activity.

If you are trying to search for a community but it’s not appearing try searching:

!CommunityName@InstanceName

This will tell the server to pull community and when you subscribe, that will make that community for everyone else on the server.

Instant Pot is the perfect gift for when you send your kid off to college. Everyone I know has one of these things. It’s better than a crock pot, the thing actually locks and I can throw it on the floor in the back of my car for a potluck.

Ah interesting, I guess it made sense when the community was much smaller. Seeing a new posting pop up every few minutes. Now that there are significantly more users and instances the live postings are hitting much faster, every few seconds.

The it’s fun being a refugee. Also being able to comment and get involved without being it lost to the masses. Even if it doesn’t become “mainstream” with enough seeded users who decide to stay this place can hopefully grow a nice community with a wide range of quality discussions.
