But in the US, colloquially every 4 year school is a college. People say “I’m going to college.” People don’t say “I’m going to university.”

Bourbon.

With helium or no?

That Nautilus Terminal says it no longer works on the GitHub page. https://github.com/flozz/nautilus-terminal

Which sucks because that sounds great.

Can’t live without the terminal? Embed it directly in the file manager.

How?

No, I’m not saying Lemmy users checking in represent any material change to Reddit numbers. I’m saying Place gets Reddit a short term boost to demonstrate the site still has pull. And that is what Reddit cares about far more than good content - eyeballs to sell ads to, and comments to sell to LLM companies.

Place gives Reddit exactly what it needs most - user engagement. By going, you’re feeding Reddit stats they can show prospective investors and advertisers on unique users, time on site, and clicks even after the protests.

Reddit was very crafty in relaunching Place right now. They can show a material post-API uptick exactly as Spez promised.

I honestly have no idea what fediverse ads you’re talking about.

Small ones with 100% uptime and a handful of users who don’t interact with each other.

“Next one’s coming faster.”

Roses are red.

You keep what you kill.

Sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie but I wouldn’t know cause I ain’t eating the filthy mother fuckers.

Duck Duck Go search results are a little lacking, though, like it’s completely missing some possibilities. Looking up tech stuff for a Linux issue I’m having, Duck will miss a site that Google finds - and even if I enter the exact text of the site, it’s completely absent from Duck.

Roses are red.

I don’t have friends, I have family.

Did you see Deep Blue Sea? A fucking shark ate me.

Man with half of these resurrected memes, people have forgotten what they even mean.

Same on the campaign to block those. I originally allowed NSFW generally thinking I might miss some cool but off color posts, but the bar for NSFW is definitely high here. And copying Reddit content without the comments and interactions - especially Redditors’ personal stories like AITA or relationship advice - seems worthless and demeaning.

At this point, I’m very happy with it. It reminds me of my first days on Reddit 16 years ago, when it was all links to PDFs and tech talk that was so smart it was over my head.

Until a few days ago, that was like more than 50% of All > Hot. Logging into an instance where I do not have any blocked communities yet, it looks like that’s died down. The main list now looks like a normal website.

I didn’t say it was a problem to get signed up. I’m saying I’m not inviting some dudes from pickup ball to check out a string of Linux and furry memes.

Yeah there’s no way in Hell I’m telling average people to jump on the fediverse train. This place is niche af - just like Reddit was in the early days.

The nice solution: “Defederate preemptively.”

The substill solution: “Create an army of bots that spam goatse, tubgirl, and other offensive content in response to any threads user post or comment. Make Meta flee.”

Thermoses. They keep hot stuff hot. They keep cold stuff cold. No touchscreen or controls whatsoever. How does it know?
