I prefer pull vs push media. Less intrusive. I have a feeling lemmy users may also like RSS feeds for the control it provides. I know in mastodon you decide who to follow, but the whole culture to encourage re-blogging means a lot of potential unwanted crap in our feeds.

Similar but different : tea! You go from cheap bagged tea to going down the rabbit hole of loose leaf variations, temp control kettles, brewing vessels and brewing styles.

It’s not shawarma, but those egg rolls are a solid option.

I mix them. Not sure if this is weird or common. Honey Nut Cheerios and Rice Krispies are a good combo. Vectors with Rice Krispies too. Alone: Golden Grahams.

Hope this is allowed…it’s monthly event that I host. Next event is Tuesday August 8th.

Love solving puzzles? ..with friends? …while having a pint? Come join us for a nerdy night out with friends!

It’s easy…

  1. Form a team (solo puzzlers also welcome)
  2. Solve the location puzzle to find out where we are meeting (posted on the Friday before at www.puzzledpint.com)
  3. Show up. Receive an envelope with a themed pack of puzzles
  4. Solve with your team while having a few pints

It's free, newbie friendly and very laid back. Visit the Puzzled Pint website for more information and to see sample puzzles.

Agreed. I find myself using Siri on walks via AirPods quite a bit. Siri what’s the weather going to be like tonight . Siri what’s in my calendar tomorrow. Siri what’s the latest news. (That opens up podcast app and plays local news I love it. ). Siri let me know when it’s 12:30. I just wish it got better at answering simple questions. A few articles mentioned Apple started looking at incorporating a GPT style AI with Siri.

The natural world. Both at the micro level of looking at the symbiosis between tiny insects and plants, to the macro of untouched natural landscapes. Also clouds! We forget to look up and see how cool clouds are.

Hey! I reached out to our mod and haven’t heard back. Might be a case of trying out Lemmy then not sticking around I’m not sure. No grudge or hate at all I’m happy someone kicked things off. I would just like this community to get a chance at thriving and hard to do that without an active mod.

Anyway, Lemmy.ca came up with a process to request taking over dead communities.

I’ve never been a mod before but would be willing to give it a go if I could get a few other Sens fans on board. Don’t really want to do it solo.

I’m thinking we need a community icon and a better side bar to kick things off….

Interested?

I posted something, received a notification someone replied, but when I click on my original message the comment isn’t there. Even after swiping to refresh. If I go on the browser and go to Lemmy.ca I do see the comment. I have checked my settings and don’t see why it would possibly be hidden.

I’m following the official Sens Twitterbot and the #GoSensGo hashtags on Mastodon but I want to make sure I’m not missing out on a more active Lemmy community or anything else out there.

You can also go in your lemmy profile and check that you want to hide all NSFW posts.

I was one of three women in my year who graduated in CS at my university. I did most of my course work at home…trying to be one of the guys and make sure kindness wouldn’t be considered flirting made for a weird 4 years. No horror stories to tell though , just plenty of awkwardness.

Symbiosis in nature….it always brings up feelings of awe and wonder for me. Especially in forests. The "wood-wide web" or "mycorrhizal network" being my latest obsession . The fact that the fungi joins the trees together through the roots to allow for exchange of nutrients, water, and chemical signals between plants. And then there’s the forest canopy, and the role it plays in keeping the forest healthy.

Trees are awesome.
