MuadDib, in What to call “bedtime”
@MuadDib@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Time to hit the sack, hit the hay, or lights out.

Debo, in I can only log in when I change my password. Is there something I am missing?

Why’s it so hard to butter toast with a steak knife?

butter a toast with a steak knife?

steak knife

Aha! And if you’re too lazy to go pick up a butter knife, may I ask why you’ll keep a steak knife with you but not a butter knife? We’re getting spooked here OP

Saturdaycat, in Why the heck does my body feel like it's tripping sometimes when I sleep?

I will raise you one. Sometimes I see lots of colors and patterns right before I sleep or wake in the middle of the night. Like I took some sort of psychedelic

pleasestopasking,

Hypnagogic hallucinations, completely normal!

You’re right! But once it happened when I was partially off the bed with my head hanging off, so combined with blood rush to my head and a pounding headache! But the patterns were cool at least

Discovering that this is a common occurence is comforting. I thought I was crazy or something.

Were you watching me yesterday from inside my head?

derek, in What happens if the lemmy instance where I signed up goes offline?

No, you can’t. Your instance will go down, but all your posts and comments will still live in read-only mode on the instances they been federated before.

In mastodon (another activity pub service) you can export your account with subscriptions, but not the posts. So, if it’ll happen, you gotta start from scratch.

ImplyingImplications, in Why would someone want to be the mod of a community?

they do it for free

pleasestopasking, in Why would someone want to be the mod of a community?

Imo this gets to the crux of how “people don’t want to work” is such horseshit. People don’t mind, or even like working to share knowledge and build community. And when they have the capacity and free time, they’ll do it for no pay.

People don’t want to work at something that feels like it makes no difference in their world or the world, when they’re not getting treated well or paid enough. They’ll work at things that deserve it in their life.

nodsocket,

I think you hit the nail on the head there. In fact one of the biggest sources of economic value for networks like Lemmy and Reddit is the free labor people are willing to do out of passion for the community.

This happens to me all the time.

MentallyExhausted, in Why is there such a negative reaction to certain self improvement practices here?

Sorry that happened, but I have to assume this isn’t the first time you’ve been ostracized for it, right? Lemmy is just another group of people, same as everywhere.

Not sure how common this is, but I know as a kid this was caused by my ADHD, and it would cause me to take twice as long to read a book

I’ve absolutely read a book, thought it was a bit predictable, got to the end and realised I’ve read it before 🤦

clara, in What is 196?

sure, so 196 refers to a sub called r/196, in reference to r/195, which had one rule only: if you visit, you must post something before you leave.

it was called r/196 after it’s predecessor got a bit… spicy. 195 was a sub that skewed slightly left of center, but had a hard time keeping 195 clear of hate speech etc etc, and so they shut it down. r/196 was made, which skews further left as a result of this. since 195 was a general posting sub, some of the audience had a tough time accepting every 2nd meme post with a side of politics, some ended up getting banned quickly, and in reaction they made subs like r/197

r/195 itself was called r/195 because it was the house number of creator of the sub at that time.

It was our address. All the mods lived together in a 5 bedroom condo during college. 195 was our house number. One of the roommates sucks, so he wasn’t invited, and one roommate has since deleted his reddit account. But originally this was a subreddit for us to share memes and funny stuff during classes and work. It’s blown up in a big way in the 8 years since we created it.

(i cannot fetch sources because most of reddit is blacked out)

that’s about it, if anyone else knows better, correct me if i’m wrong :)
