Using scaled sorting really helps with getting smaller communities on the front page. I still see the political and news communities but I also see communities for cities and niche hobbies.

I doubt he’ll do anything much different before the election. Harris is going to try to run, at least in part, on the current administration’s record so Biden actions will be constrained by the fear of hurting her campaign.
No elector may vote for 2 people from the elector’s state. If the ticket is Harris Newsom then no elector from California can vote for that ticket. Dem’s cannot win in the electoral college without California.
I made the screenshot!
Child sexual assault material, no you don’t want to google it.
I have limited agreement with your thoughts on defederation. The ability to defederate is important because there are instances that host csam and other illegal things. That content federating across all instances could put some instance owners in legal jeopardy and is undesirable even without legal considerations. Beyond filtering illegal content and large amounts of spam I prefer to curate my own experience. That’s why I chose lemm.ee. It’s a general purpose instance with a good admin that is generally well moderated. Lemm.ee doesn’t tend to cause problems for other instances so few instances have defederated from it and it basically only defederates instances that host illegal material or copious amounts of spam.
Not everyone wants that same experience though. The amount of political posts and doom posting can get overwhelming and depressing. Constantly seeing posts that challenge or attempt to invalidate parts of you identity gets exhausting. More controlled and curated instances can be a nice break from the full experience. Anytime I’ve interacted with beehaw communities it has been pleasant and much less stressful than the general lemmy community. I can understand why some users prefer to stay in that environment for all of their time on lemmy. This is ultimately recreation, users should enjoy their experience here. The same with blahaj, it’s nice to sometimes see content concerning minority identities without there being the same debates in the comments. When I interact with communities there and see how they talk about things I learn and grow as a person. Those discussions wouldn’t be possible on a less controlled instance.
[email protected] helps. You can also post about them in related communities if the community rules allow and communities can partner with each other to link in community sidebars.
To reduce centralization. The more spread out things are the less vulnerable Lemmy is to a major loss if an instance shuts down and the less power any single admin has.
Ted Cruz is a natural born citizen. He was born in Canada but his mother was an American citizen who met residency requirements to pass citizenship to him so he was a US citizen at birth.
A Martha Stewart/Snoop Dogg ticket would be interesting. I kinda want to see Snoop in the debate though so maybe a Snoop Dogg/Martha Stewart ticket.
If you want to guarantee a win though Oprah is the answer. Just to maximize Trump’s rage I say we need Oprah/RuPaul 2024.
The job application one should be pronounced with a long a as the second e. Despite the last e not being silent the u is still elongated. It’s a recent adoption from French. Even though they are spelled the same the two words are unrelated.
Mosquitoes are the only thing that kills more humans than other humans. In fact, if you look at the top 10 animals that kill humans and add up 2-9s per year totals they’re a bit less than mosquitoes. Also the list is very bug and parasite heavy.

Thanks, I downloaded it and am messing with it. It’s missing some nutrient data on a few of the ingredients I am looking for but it’s the best I’ve found so far.
Egypt has the longest unbroken record of it’s history. It may or may not have been the first civilization to begin keeping a written record of it’s major events. The other 2 contenders are Mesopotamia and Sumer but most records from those are lost. Egypt’s records were also lost but large portions have been rediscovered in burial tombs. Egypt began it’s chronology (~3500BCE) at least a thousand years before China(~2500BCE).
Hexbear seems a little passive, they could be a little more aggressive in their interactions. Also they don’t include enough random spam and shit posting when they find a thread they want to interact with. What’s really sad though is that they only tend to engage with one or two representatives instead of sending every user on their server into the thread.
There was a community on the old site.
I lose dexterity anyway and get pain as arthritis like symptoms. That’s why it’s probably secondary despite the family history and it starting in my teens. Mittens are a good idea, thanks. I usually wear isotoner driving gloves under heavier gloves while outside in winter. That way I can take the heavier gloves off when the heater starts warming up the car.
Unless it’s a very severe case that’s not likely, for most people it’s just uncomfortable. Raynaud’s does make you more vulnerable to frostbite though.
Primary or secondary? Mine is most likely secondary to lung disease but I also have a family history of primary Raynaud’s. Got any good glove recommendations?
We also have a problem on lemmy that there is a subset of users who think that votes are how you curate your feed. They downvote anything that they don’t want to see instead of blocking communities that they aren’t interested in.
