up/down voting is simply a way to help comments you think are good, or agree with, become more/less dominant in the thread.

In some cases, comments are useful to explain why - but often that's just not the case.

Hard to find something depressing with no experience.

What is depressing is that tens of millions JUMP on the platform, knowing already that Meta is evil and not caring.

The human race is digging it's own grave, and the handful that know better will just get pulled down.

Fireworks are brilliant. I think you live somewhere with cultural issues... people reserve the right to party and annoy everyone else...

They have their time and place - and 2am sounds more like problms with arseholes, not Fireworks.

They should be banned after 9pm (except for New Year - extend until 00:20 for that).

I've been witness to some amazing displays that bring tears to my eyes they were so awesome. The most memorable being ones that I'm close enough to feel the pressure wave, a truly trouser flapping experience.

Well yes... Ctrl+L then Ctrl+C gets it.

'true fact'.

  • Facts cannot be anything except for true.
  • Anyone who uses the two words 'true fact' together cannot be trusted because they know neither the meaning of the word 'true' or the word 'fact'.

Haha I cannot say for sure. I certainly started to duplicate my credentials... so now I'm more likely to be logged in as BendyLemmy.

So initially it was Lemmy.ml (which wasn't working too well) and it got annoying that I wasn't logged in when opening links - so BeeHaw, Lemmy.world, https://fosstodon.org/ is BendyToy,...

One thing I'm finding useful now in Bitwarden is that I can autofill and copy (so just refresh for a new password) to get the same username for each one... but it's kind of getting out of hand.

It's a little frustrated that we can't use a kind of centralised profile - like the way an 'opendesktop' account can be used to log in to various instances of websites. If I log in the Opendesktop website, and then go to Mastodon, I find my Opendesktop account gets logged in there - so there's more fragmentation.

Overal it is just very confusing.

I can't see this post, I am just replying to let you know that.

Don't ever join the infantry, I imagine you in camouflage approaching the enemy - and you stand up and shout "Please, I need to stay hidden - so let me know if you can see me so that I can hide more effectively".

Some of the jokes were nice - with the best laughs coming from the replies and the bad puns.

Almost all of them when I had read the book first.

The Hobbit

The latest (The Hobbit) I got my son to read the book, then watch the movies and he's like 'Whaaaaaa???' because they tried to amplify it into a blockbuster.

So yes, Great movie - but sucked after reading the book.

  • Stop using the word 'Google' instead of saying 'Search'. Take offense if anyone tells you to 'Google' something - fuck them!!!
  • Set Firefox as your default - don't keep 'defaulting' to chrome, or chromium based browsers (as this code mostly comes from Google).
  • Be sure to become more acquainted with more platforms, keep shortcuts handy and use them when they have content...
  • If you must use Youtube, use it signed out - find your channel and add it to an RSS reader. Avoid using the Youtube interface and avoid the algorithms. Search for any channels you watch on alternative platforms.
