Isn’t that just a soft ‘rule’ established via Reddiquette?

I don’t think so. Maybe I’m misunderstood, but the “I use Arch” meme was meming on the fact that using Arch was a flex, like it’s harder to get into, and you’re a true blooded Linux user if you’re using Arch.

Whereas, Pop_OS is kind of the opposite. I’m fairly new to Linux (been using a Linux system as my daily driver for about a year), and Pop_OS was recommended as a beginner-friendly distro. Plus, it worked well with Nvidia cards with minimal effort. So maybe it seems like a lot of people are using Pop_OS and are bringing it up, because there are a lot of newer Linux users.

Maybe a little bit of column A and a little bit of column B.

The hottest 21 days so far!

@Mane25 Sure, here’s the Annual global land-ocean temperature index. And the Annual Ocean heat average tempatures. Really, just go to town. Any Annual averaged data category gives some cause for alarm. Sea levels, CO2 levels, Methane levels, etc.

The climate records that are being broken regionally are a direct consequence of the trends shown above. If you read the article @readbeanicecream was kind enough to share, then you would have read that. “Records go back to the late 19th century, and we can see that there has been a decade-on-decade increase in temperatures,” said Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, keeper of the agency’s climate records."

So no, I don’t think this is sensationalist or misleading at all. You just need to dig past the headline a little bit. A headline that accurately reflects what scientists are saying is a direct consequence of the general trend that’s going to continue to get worse and break more records into the future.

That’s good to hear! I’m not on iOS but I’ll keep an eye out for the Android solution.

Behind the bastards makes it more bearable because they really take the piss out of the ads every time.

I have not found this to be the case. There are only a few podcasts I felt I enjoyed enough to financially support, and I stopped donations because I still had to sit through ads. I don’t like feeling as if I’m being monetized twice.

Be really cool if more hosts made ad-free supporter versions.

If you don’t mind sharing, which subreddits are you still following on reddit? Do you think they might move over eventually?

Unfortunate but inevitable given the API changes. I only used teddit for a short time to check on a few subreddits during the protest/blackout period. This really marks the end of me visiting reddit in any form or fashion now.

Its been brought to my attention on a previous thread that if you’re attaching images to comments on Kbin, Lemmy users cannot see them.

I still very much dislike imgur though, so I wouldn’t suggest that as a solution. But embedding images into hyperlinks seems to be the best way to ensure your comment containing an image is viewed correctly by the wider fediverse.

That’s correct. There’s a great comment by @EnglishMobster that summarizes the advantage of using Kbin to interface with microblogging platforms like Mastodon: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/129425/Can-some-one-explain-how-the-microblog-feature-works#entry-comment-507634

What’s your opinion on the Fury Edge? I’ve only had a few dry herb vapes in my time, and I’ve really been enjoying mine for the past year or so. But I’m not sure how it compares at a similar price point for a portable vape.

Not to mention dry herb vapes produce ABV at the end of your session, which can be reused in edibles. Dry herb is the best way to get your monies worth.

I’ll make a single exception for this post, as it’s complaining about the people complaining. But if I hear someone complain about someone complaining about someone complaining, then so help me.

While most of these are a good rule of thumb, I disagree with ‘Always Happy to Help.’ > ‘No Problem.’

‘I’m Always Happy to Help’ is a fine response, if you’re actually willing to make your time available for the recipient at the drop of a hat. Sometimes that’s called for, but I would only reserve it for a few very specific circumstances. I also don’t see an issue with saying ‘no problem’ most of the time. There are situations where something a little more formal is called for, but 90% of the time ‘no problem’ should work imho.

To do so, go to the instance’s Kbin address with this format: kbin.social/d/[insert instance name here].

For example: kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.

Then hit the block button in the upper right, under where it says domain.

Can’t piss off the boomers by mentioning climate change, that would alienate 80% of a TV audience. There’s still watchtime to be gained and sales to be had before the world ends.

I bet on the 12th, there were a lot of lurkers on kbin/lemmy. Now that 3rd party mobile app folks are properly being forced off, they are properly making the jump and creating accounts. Welcome, if that’s you!
