Just wait for their next phase when they start shilling for their Kevlar girdle startup…

Is this a novelty account or something, what’s with the fixation on your belly? You’ve been milking this subject for 2 months.

If they used the native instance blocking feature to “completely block” the instance that actually only hides posts from that instance.

From https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-12-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.0_-_Instance_blocking,_Scaled_sort,_and_Federation_Queue

Users can now block instances. Similar to community blocks, it means that any posts from communities which are hosted on that instance are hidden. However the block doesn’t affect users from the blocked instance, their posts and comments can still be seen normally in other communities.

Featured in the movie Encino Man (1992) [This YouTube compilation clip is in Italian]

It should display a “Send Secure Message” button when viewing a user’s profile.

Sounds like “hazing.”

There’s a video by a designer talking about some of the symbolism of Ellie’s journey (Full talk video here – SPOILERS for the film in both).

And also an insightful YouTube comment(!) someone made in response describing their interpretation:

Just seemed like a needlessly confusing specific detail to include as it is not a necessity to have any wifi connectivity at all and might mislead OP/readers into assuming it has some relevance to ports. It should be sufficient to just say router unless the question involves SSIDs or related components specific to that connection method.

Just to clarify, nothing about ports requires wifi to be involved at all. It doesn’t need to be a wifi router, a network doesn’t have to be connected via wifi.

I liked this YouTube video about Diffie-Hellman key exchange [start at 2:25] that explains the concept using color mixtures.

The Piped bot pisses me off because it doesn’t seem to check if the triggering comment already includes the exact link it’s about to post. I used to preemptively include Piped links with any YouTube ones but since it would trigger the bot anyway I just stopped bothering.

Aside from the clutter it adds, until I added the bot itself to my blocklist (instead of just relying on “Show bots” being unchecked in settings) it would also cause reply notifications that couldn’t be cleared in the default Lemmy web UI.

Not a response, please stop trolling.

Are you going out of your way to test the “no stupid questions” premise? You aren’t even asking a question you’re trying to make some kind of point in a roundabout way.

In all those posts there’s the common thread of you being vague and constantly alluding to some specific message you want to spread but won’t just directly state.

“The workman of today works everyday in his life at the same tasks, and his fate is no less absurd. But it is tragic only at the rare moments when it becomes conscious. Sisyphus, proletarian of the gods, powerless and rebellious, knows the whole extent of his wretched condition: it is what he thinks of during his descent. The lucidity that was to constitute his torture at the same time crowns his victory. There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.”

This wasn’t an innocent request for interesting topics to follow, it was taking the stance that only serious topics get discussed here and it’s boring:

I’d like to see the fedi let its hair down a bit. It’s okay to talk about stuff other than infosec, privacy guides, distros, and Gaza.

It wasn’t a demand, but certainly requesting that we “let our hair down a bit” and that they “often get bored of the Fediverse.”

This post could have been phrased as “What are some good non-political or news related communities?” And I’ll gladly accept the label of being elitist if it’s because I have minimal expectations that people explore for solutions before complaining and implying it’s everyone else that needs to change. You can’t browse all without easily bumping into the things I listed, and if you aren’t aware there’s different filtering options there’s always a sidebar link instructing you how the platform works.

Do animals count as actors? Turner & Hooch could be interesting with Tom Hanks drooling and running on all fours and Beasley The Dog playing a detective.

I’m not the one complaining about being bored and requesting that everyone else amuse me. All those things I listed are things that are regularly posted so what’s the issue?

Yeah, where’s the fun? There’s no posts about owls/bats/invertebrates/cats/dogs, no cooking or food posts, no pictures of people knitting socks, nobody asking general questions, no articles and pictures about space, no discussion around movies/tv/books, nobody ever posts about gaming of any kind, there’s no memes to be found anywhere, no poems or short stories, no digital/traditional/AI art.

For some reason browsing news/politics/technology always seems to revolve around depressing and infuriating topics which is different from every other platform.
