“Sure, the outside is a little weird, but does it really need to be in this community?”

Picture 5: “Oh, found the bad one”

Picture 31: “Holy shit!”

Reddit won against its own users, the very people it relies on to stay relevant. In doing so, it showed a large number of users they don’t need reddit.

As the Lemmy apps get better, more and more people will check out the ad-free reddit. We can get their content without needing their platform, which is huge.

Reddit won the battle, but will it win the war?

Pickles said the offending account in question may have been sharing the content “out of outrage,” which would mean the account wouldn’t be permanently banned

Australian senator Helen Polley pointed to research that child sexual abuse material had gone up since Musk had bought the company. Polley questioned why child sexual abuse material wouldn’t result in an immediate ban on X since it was a crime, regardless of intent.

I can tell whether a food has milk in it simply by eating it and waiting a few minutes.

It’s kind of a shitty superpower, to be honest.

Glee. It started out as a parody of musicals and high school dramas in Season 1. Then went on to be a musical high school drama for the rest of the show.

The Simpsons started out as a parody of sitcoms and has since become the longest running sitcom.

The 1960s Batman was a campy satire of comics and itself influenced comic adaptations for decades after.

Pretty much every studio is making their actors do these terrible promos. The D&D movie had it, too.

It’s just a commercial for Tom Cruise: whether he personally believes it or not is irrelevant.

How do you know if a closed source application is stealing your data?

With open source, you can learn to read it, or talk to a community of people who know how to read it. If even just 1 in 500 people who downloads the software looks at the source, there are external eyes on it. Whereas with closed source, no one but the creator is looking.

Biggest thing is to still only install software you trust.

Obviously. This was always the plan.

You think a bunch of old white Republican men were actually passionate about high school girls’ sports? No, it was just a game they were playing until they could start speaking openly. The goal is to push the anti-trans laws as much as possible and be as oppressive as possible.

Talk to your doctor before stopping it. This study is specifically for primary prevention, and you may be on it for secondary prevention or treatment, which are completely different things.

Using thermal imaging cameras, researchers found that closed-door rooms on both floors during the fire’s spread had average temperatures of less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit versus 1000+ degrees in the open-door rooms. “You could see a markable difference that a person could be alive in a room with a closed door much longer,” says Kerber.

Gas concentrations were markedly different as well. The open-door bedroom measured an extremely toxic 10,000 PPM CO (parts per million of Carbon Monoxide), while the closed had approximately 100 PPM CO.

For SBC, you can’t beat Raspberry Pi. The ecosystem is just there and the support outclasses every other board.

For hardware based on SBCs, Pine64 hands down. Devices like the Pinebook and Pinetab are SBCs in a hardware shell and as such should feel like cheap gadgets, but their build quality is excellent and these feel like premium devices. I have just started messing with the Pinetab 2 and it feels like a device 3x its price, to the degree that I don’t mind that the drivers and software for it are still a work in progress.
