It’s almost a productivity hack.
Slapping palms as a form of greeting a friend and then holding their hand as you pull your fingers back until it makes a snapping sound.
Thank you, Urban Dictionary!
Americans visited the UK during WW2’s rationing and never updated their stereotypes.
If I’m remembering it right, the Entwives preferred to garden, whereas the Ents preferred thing wild and untamed* so they both lived in different parts and visited each other. Then one day then Ents visited to find only barren lands where the gardens had been. The Ents searched but never found out what happened.
* which would make the Entwives more authoritarian, right?
I’ve had that before and I’m very confident the password was correct - my theory is that they’d changed how non-ASCII characters like £ were handled and their code only half recognised my password.
Deebster@lemmy.mlto Lemmy@lemmy.ml•The post with the single most comments on LemmyEnglish18·1 year agoI don’t think you can count the sites that just mirror Reddit comments.
Searching on lemmy.ml shows the top being several !news@hexbear.net megathreads with comments in the thousands, then that !asklemmy@lemmy.ml post you highlighted, more !news@hexbear.net threads, then a !meta@lemm.ee megathread about Hexbear’s federation. I guess we can see who comments the most.
I liked this !imageai@sh.itjust.works post Your username is the prompt, what did you get? which has 1618 comments.
Deebster@lemmy.mlto Lemmy@lemmy.ml•Does anyone else feel like Lemmy is getting SO MUCH better?!!English3·2 years agoYeah, that got old very quickly, although things like the old Reddit switcharoo* always got an upvote, but the original comment needed creativity and the stock reply needed to link the the previous example. It was cool that it was a different experience each time and that the network grew, occasionally branching, and had maintainers that made sure you could follow without hitting a deleted part dead end.

But here I wrote all of this, instead of just the word “This”
Ah, you mean a ninja edit. Yes, this should be allowed.
I just tested and it definitely isn’t.
Deebster@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•YouTube is reportedly slowing down videos for Firefox users51·2 years agoI’d seen it in my Firefox/Win10 + uBlockO setup. I just used yt-dlp and then a uBlock “quick fixes” update sorted it.
All the ones I actually want on my phone worked already, but this is still good news.
Deebster@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Google Testing Ads Mixed Within Organic Search Results2·2 years agoI’d seen someone calling all us Kagi fans shills which I thought was stupid at the time, but now I’m starting to see why they might think that.
I used to see them in the UK. Perhaps they’re making the boxes stronger to save needing the plastic, or maybe it’s just smaller pizzas/boxes don’t need them.
My point is that social media management tools already exist, so why do you think the Fediverse needs to “consider it”? I don’t understand what you’re expecting.
This isn’t a Fediverse-specific topic, that I can see. This is something that’s fairly trivial to do - there’s already services that will post to multiple channels (“social media management tools” seems to be best search term). In these ten months you could have written one yourself!
Also, the main point of POSSE seems to be that you control your own domain and space online, and everything else points back to that. That assumes that your main way of communicating is via publishing chunks of content, of course, which is patently not true. It also assumes that everyone’s way more technical than they are - plenty of people call their browser “the internet” and would glaze over the second you started talking about domain names, etc.

Deebster@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Wired has retracted its article "How Google alters search queries"4·2 years agoApart from that archive.today seemed down yesterday - I was worried they weren’t coming back!
After seeing the Odo version of the you mean x right? Right!? meme, this feels like restoring karma.
It was a Flash animation originally. Many of his animations looped, but some of them had the issue that the sound and imagery weren’t exactly the same length, so would go out of sync as it repeated.
