Soldiers knocking down doors to arrest millions of illegal aliens and everyone who looks like an illegal alien and shoving them into camps, what could go wrong?

Mastodon has a pseudo-algorithm (sort of, unless there’s a better name) in the Search/Explore -> Posts view, which shows you posts that are trending on your instance. I wonder if Lemmy can come up with something similar based on your instance activity

Because how else would we feel superior?

I love how his last name is pronounced “to share a” and he did, in abundance

I think it’s easy to understand Mastodon, or any federated service, using a metaphor for a country or large place, where you can say “I want to move to X country” but then you have to actually pick a place IN that country to live, like a specific city or rural district. Once you decide on your instance, it’s really not that hard

And make it in black or gray so it’s impossible to find in an emergency👌

Friendly reminder that everyone should have one of these seatbelt-cutter-window-hammer things in their glovebox

Gimp is fine

Things seem to have improved in the last 5 years, so maybe give it another shot. I’m on Fedora 40 with gnome and lots of extensions, and I’m constantly tinkering with it to make it look just right (for fun, not that I feel like I have to). Nothing catastrophic has happened yet!🤞

Well that’s upsetting

Not sure where burgers come in. Might have been someone making a joke

So much nuance, wow

English culture around “image” is sooo toxic, exemplified by this and the Lucy Letby case. Rather let babies die and cover it up than admit you’re not perfect

Megalodon is a good client, forked from a recent version of the official Mastodon app for Android (which is a fine client in itself). Megalodon also supports some extra features that some instances opt for via a forked backend, but it’s fully compatible with all instances. Here’s are some good place to find instances https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/list https://fedidb.org/software/mastodon

Do you know if there’s a Lemmy version?

cmake debugger

I use this one in vscodium https://open-vsx.org/vscode/item?itemName=ms-vscode.cmake-tools

There are cmake debuggers where you can walk through exactly what it’s doing line by line

I hope that’s his real name, Oldmancat Murphy
