Today I posted a picture of a stamp with an animal in it and they said the picture contained nudity and made me take it down, but I reported a photo of a guy with a fully visible swastika tattoo and they said that’s fine....
I installed the official Reddit app and went on it to see what the old place was looking like now. My inbox was filled with spam. The “home feed” shows subs I never subscribed to. There are so many ads. Between the ads and the the extra subs in the feed, it’s hard to just scroll. I also noted a lot of spam in some of the...
I felt that way as a teenager but now as an adult it’s like a switch flipped and I find them insufferable. Memes within niche communities are still good though.
Federal student loan borrowers can expect “the most affordable student loan plan ever”, Biden said in a video address on Tuesday announcing significant changes to the debt from higher education held by over an eighth of the country.
With so much note taking apps nowadays, I can’t understand why does anyone still write notes with pen and paper. You need to bring the notepad, book or that paper to retrieve that information, and most of the time you don’t have it in hand. While my phone almost always reachable and you carry when you go out. For those still...
I have noticed that alot of people think the majority of people are stupid based on the things they read online or maybe even experience in real life but I think that there is better explanation than just assuming people are stupid....
I think this is a good mindset to have. Dismissing every conspiracy/dissenting opinion as “crazy” just serves to further alienate and radicalize the people who believe them.
From what I’ve seen, there’s usually an intuitive (but misguided) reasoning behind conspiracies. Like, it’s easy to call everyone who’s worried about 5G a senseless fucking idiot, but 5G signals are literally microwave radiation. It’s not that much of a stretch to assume they could be harmful. They just miss the part about the power of the radiation not being strong enough to do any damage.
I am currently self-hosting a meta search engine instance (searxng), which allows me combine searches from different engines (e.g. Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc), but also to filter out websites that I don’t want to show up....
If you’re interested in computer architecture/embedded systems, you gotta watch Ben Eater videos. His series of building a 6502 computer really helped computer architecture click for me.
As you see from the screenshot, internet funeral is now featured on the first page of lemmy.world communities. I just wanna say thanks to anyone who have contributed to this community, weather posing or commenting. I never thought in a tech focused instance, that a sub as weird as mine would be this popular. I doubt this would...
Damn, time to actually stop using reddit I guess. I wish I could say Lemmy scratches the itch, but there just aren’t any of the communities I care about here. Just seems like there are a bunch of awful memes and copies of my least favorite subreddits.
I’m a 3D printing wanna-be, not even an amateur. Have seen a few printers, helped assemble one long time ago, played with the software a little, though I have never actually printed anything myself yet. I decided to spend some saved money on a printer for myself....
Facebook is a hot pile of garbage that should be fired into the sun.
