I’ve pulled one of those wireless trimmers apart when it quit working. I found a rechargeable AA battery soldered in there.

Hmm, probably so. Another reason not to have a giant collective art project yet.

I think it would be wildly different.

Maybe it would be a space where users can straight up post pictures and move them around in a large space. Not pixel by pixel, but a whole image at a time, in a space big enough to fit thousands of pictures.

Maybe it would be a collection of symbols and flags where users add a dot below what they identify with.

Maybe it would be a shared drawing canvas, where users can do freehand lines, outlines, and fill with colors like MS Paint, but all at once and over each other. Basically an internet graffiti wall. To align with the ideas of Lemmy, it would be possible to “wall off” off bits of the greater canvas, and block the rest of the users so that only one community/magazine /server can draw on that space, while any unclaimed area stays wide open for anyone.

Maybe it would not exist at all, because the whole mentality of the Fediverse might not support enough collective expression.

It would be news, and even harder to believe as real news.

Yeah, I’m having trouble seeing this as real news.

Signal with 2 people who actually moved there with me, standard messages app that came with Samsung for most people, and Facebook Messenger Lite for anything that works better there, or contacting people who I’m not close enough with to get their phone number.

Not interested in learning

Complains constantly

Wants things for free

Doesn’t deserve your help in this area.

I think if a thing like Place were made for Lemmy, it would need to be so different to fit the values of the Fediverse that it would need a new name. Different rules, different way of interaction, different output.

I use it kind of like WD-40 in a farm setting. It’s messy, but not as messy as grease. It’s effective to coat things that constantly wear and have started to rust. I also rub it on my leather boots to waterproof it for cheap.

I had no idea it existed before the API changes were announced.

This is perfect for the situation above

I don’t understand most of those terms, but uh, sounds good?

Permission toggles that mean something, battery life and no bloat ware sound great to me.

Maybe it’s worth giving up those games to get rid of the Facebook account.

@seeCseas

Bard, GPT, or Bing chat?

@skunch oh, okay. Nice! I like this corner of the internet even more now.

@PsychoticBananaSplit I’ve only bean here a few weeks, you might consider me a great sprout

Writing the exact link will make it a link, just like it did here. Then that link gets recognized by the filter and taken out. Gotta go joinfediverse dot wiki or something like “just Google the Fediverse”

Google, duck duck go when I don’t want to see ads for days based on what I’m searching, Bing and Perplexity when I want to avoid doing a series of searches to learn something.

I mean, it’s only fair.

Yes.
