No I've never used me_cleaner. Maybe I should. It's possible that the fan got stuck and disabled itself but later the obstruction cleared. I did notice some noise from it, and it's spinning quietly now.

Someone told me a while back that Rev. Sun Myung Moon was going to give a speech in a stadium near me. My first reaction was to be terrified at the idea of going, because he was likely to speak in Korean. The event might turn into a mass wedding without my even realizing it. Maybe I'm old fashioned but I've always thought you were supposed to at least talk to the person before going off on something like that.
There are some Lemmy instances without downvoting, but none without upvoting. That affects what gets posted. Also it doesn't matter much what an individual instance does, since a lively community has users from lots of instances contributing. That's the point of federation, I thought.
Some phones are straightforwardly rootable, some want you to download a suspicious binary from a file sharing site, and some are difficult. Maybe the best thing is post instructions for as many phones as possible.
Hmm interesting, thanks, yikes. I will avoid the compressed air then, or stay with very low velocity like a blower brush. But, I had hoped to avoid disassembling the machine. Wow. I powered it off last night and turned it on a little while ago and the fan is running gently.
It's sort of weird, ACPI said the fan was enabled and not spinning. I would have expected different if it was trying to spin. After the power cycle it sounded about normal. But I'll try to clean it, at least with compressed air. Thanks.
When psychologist Jeff Wine’s daughter was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, he decided to change his entire research program to focus on the disease. Since then, he’s helped foster significant advances in the field.
This is not news, the incident is well known and is months old and there has been fallout. The multiple posts start to feel like spam.
This is months old and yes there has been fallout, but posting it as if it was new is misleading.
Uggggghhhh.
For algorithms, anything that isn’t a straightforward scrutable way of presenting user content is bad, IMO. Algorithms that promote engagement, monetization, and sycophants are bad.
I would say scrutability in itself doesn't automatically make an algorithm good. "Demote everything that doesn't support Trump" is perfectly scrutable but leads to a skewed discussion.
In fact I would say any content boosting algorithm at all leads to skew and what you call sycophancy. That includes upvotes/downvotes that affect what posts users see first. So I would get rid of all that stuff and just show purely chronologically.
I haven't noticed much difference between instances either, though I haven't been on many. I moved from lemmy.world to lemmy.ml because .ml has a bit less censorship (e.g. .ml lets me subscribe to covid@hexbear.net). They are otherwise about the same, as far as I can tell.

Quit reddit, problem solved.
