Just log onto mastodon.social and be done with it. That's the one that will still be running until the they turn out the lights on the service, I figure. And then go kick in a buck or two a month on Patreon to help defray development and server costs. (Not being the product is worth a donation by itself, I figure.)

Except Harris was going to drag us back towards the left. But hey, no biggie. 15 million people can't be bothered to vote and will get who they helped elect.

Probably meant he wanted them to pay him protection money, lol.

For anyone on a different server, you can always personally defederated from a server under Settings in the Block tab at the very bottom. I eventually ended up being defederated from hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml.

Dude is gonna come back at him with the first mention of lead in the bible and say, no this is where God created lead, lol.

Head wind is definitely number one for me too. EDIT: OK actually it would be snow or rain, but those really aren't issue where I live (AZ desert).

I have literally never downloaded pirated software since OS 9 went away and OS X became a thing. Open up your task manager and look at how many processes there are (Window, Mac or Linux) and ask yourself if you're going to notice the one extra process that is out of place.

As for files with extra extensions, this is why you should always set Explorer/Finder/whatever to show all file extensions the very first thing, regardless of what OS you're running too.

Interesting. Luckily I only needed it to power my docking station so I can plug in power, ethernet, USB and monitor with one plug so not an issue for me luckily.

Yeah, the whole experience of going from lightning cables and mini display port and such has been less than overwhelming. I eventually had to buy a USB C from the Apple Store to get one that actually did 100W power instead of just lying about it on the box.

Season 1 wasn't terrible. Season 2 absolutely was.

I laughed out loud multiple times watching this "unfunny" comedy special? It really felt like the Times had a hell of an axe to grind with her.

Mind you, I've never watched the Ellen Show even once in my life, so pretty much her standup is the only interaction I've ever had with her.

The Blender Guru doughnut tutorial is the winning starting tutorial IMHO.

EDIT: The one Ludrol linked to elsewhere in the comments.

 

… and he calls some random people after he mows down the cyclists, but not 911? How is he only facing misdemeanor charges?!?

 

My apologies to the Bugzilla team for wasting their time holding my hand on this one. Would have honestly never noticed the little "HTML5" info icon to the left of the URL bar though without their help.

 

Anyone have an idea why the Previous button would be missing from all pages? I can click Next and it seems to navigate me forward, but there is not Previous button to go back a page. Checked lemmy.world just to verify it wasn't my imagination and indeed the Previous button is still there.

Things I've tried so far that haven't worked:

  • Disable uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger and TamperMonkey for lemmy.ml
  • Load website in default Safari and Edge
  • Try a few different themes to make sure it wasn't something with the theme I was using
 

(And in Space Black even!)
