The Lord said that the “VCR shall be saved” with the knife technique, but in the following paragraph, it was not the VCR that was saved, but the man that was saved. The VCR was not saved!

It looks like it could fall over with any gust of wind and kill someone.
I just experienced my first actual report. 🙃
The only person I met with that name, and only in small amounts, is Henrietta Lacks.
Consider undervolting (via Throttlestop or Intel XTU) to prolong your laptop’s longevity and possibly mildly increase its performance. For the same CPU workload, undervolting will reduce the amount of heat generation and therefore the temperature of the CPU, thereby decreasing the risk of hitting the CPU’s temperature throttling and risk of CPU damage.
There are ready guides on youtube and r/gaminglaptops sub, but I’ll leave reddit links out for now. Just search for your laptop model since the exact values will depend on the model and also on luck. If you’re lucky, you can undervolt a lot without causing instabilities.
Do the maneuver @Dadbod89@lemmy.world suggested.
Try Flonase. Helps a lot but takes 1-2 weeks to start to work.
See a doc if things persist.
That drone live view was pretty nice.
Congrats. I love how every time I log on, there’s a new update to wefwe-Voyager.
I’m not sure wtf you just said, but lemmy.world feels very smooth today, so thank you for your continued hard work!
We really need the lemmy version of a multireddit - some way to group up your subscribed communities into categories. This way you can lasso together all the communities that cover the same topic but were created on different instances. That’s at the basic level.
At the advanced level, I hope someone can come up with an algorithm to merge duplicate posts/news sources/etc together so that it looks like one centralized post, even though it is decentralized on the backend.
And… we’re back!
I don’t think think wefwef has an option to block yet. It’s one of the feature requests if you go to the app’s community page.
If you use go to a community’s side bar via a regular internet browser, there’s a button to block that community. Unfortunately, there’s no option to block communities based on groups or keywords right now.
0.18.0 adds that option as well as top 6 and top 12 hours.
You can check out how it functions on lemmy.ml since they’re on 0.18.
How’s that Nazi bar story go again?
I was at a shitty crust punk bar once getting an afterwork beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, “No. Get out.”
And the dude next to me says, “Hey, I’m not doing anything. I’m a paying customer,” and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, “Out. Now,” and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed.
Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, “You didn’t see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them.”
And I was like, “Oh okay,” and he continues.
"You have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and it’s always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you don’t want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after a while they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.
And then THEY bring friends, and the friends bring friends, and they stop being cool and then you realize, ‘Oh shit. This is a nazi bar now.’ And it’s too late because they’re entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down."
And I was like, “Oh damn,” and he said, “Yeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments because their end goal is to be terrible, awful people.”
And then he went back to ignoring me. But I haven’t forgotten that at all.

There isn’t anything yet that I’m aware of.

I’m waiting for people to start the more specialized art subs…
I agree with you.
I think a lot of the value and entertainment of these text/story-based communities comes from seeing other commenters interact with the post and with each other.
Some of the bots are putting out too much primary content for the number of users in that community. I think they should limit the posts to 1-2/day so that viewers can get concentrated onto those posts and hopefully generate some comments. As the population grows, more posts can be done per day by the bot, or ideally, switch to actual people submitting posts.
It absolutely can become a problem in the areas of advertising, politics, propaganda, misinformation, and scams.
Once out of the spotlight of the immediate popular phase (say, a month or a year after the initial post) and the greater scrutiny that carries, imagine changing the title to something anti-vax, or painting a company in a better light (Nestle did nothing wrong!), or endorsing a fake research result (global warming is not man-made and just a natural cycle!), or just flat out putting in a web address to a phishing site since you know someone’s grandma will click on it.
What a trip. I think I saved this piece in the time before I joined Reddit via the Digg exodus…
Much further back… Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. The party was founded on anti- slavery. The current party has nothing to do with the original party.
