It's a limitation of Lemmy itself. Either link OR image for a post, not both. And you can put whatever you want in the body.
Not a federation issue. Limitation of Lemmy. Lemmy doesn't support link AND image in the same post "header". One or the other.
You can do a custom thumbnail and a link OR you can do an image.
And with either, you can put whatever the hell you want in the post body.
But the "header" (can't really think of a better term, sorry) is image OR link.
I've brought it up to the Lemmy devs that they desparately need to make this limitation clearer, at the very least in the Lemmy UI. They said they need to see an example of a better UI because they couldn't figure it out themselves. Can't make this shit up. Just clear out one when you fill in the other. Red warning message. Anything to make it fucking clearer. It shouldn't be tough, but here we are.
You couldn't refuse to service them if they didn't get tires? Let them make it someone else's problem or try to call the cops about it, lol.
Thanks for the clarification!
Fuck. Thanks for the clarification.
I hope it's possible for another "framework" group to rise without federal funding. I'm well aware of the dangers of "new management", but the knowledge and skills that are going to be lost is insane.
It is currently a hidden setting in Firefox's about:config. They are removing it from there and no longer controlling it within Firefox itself so it will follow the setting set in you window manager (probably have the wrong term here, haven't had my coffee yet), which is (generally) not hidden and available through a settings GUI. So you won't have a web browser having different functionality than elsewhere on your machine.
If it's hidden at that point, blame the window manager/desktop environment/whatever it's called.
Are there any other CoPilots I should know about?
Meow.
I thought that most of their funding wasn't federal.
It gets better. Both in the "PTSD" and they got what's coming to them sense. Some additional context: This was a switchover from one system to another.
They agreed to a specific special solution that my team would set up for them, different from our standard switchover for everyone else. We just needed some incredibly basic info from them that any member of that team should have been able to provide in 30 seconds.
They got the info to us two days before the deadline.
So, some stuff happened and while we had everything switched over to the new system, we didn't actually shut down the old system for a few more weeks past the deadline we had shared. Before we shut it down I did a final scan and notified any person/team that still appeared to be using it. These problem children were, because of course they would.
Sent them the "Hey guys, you didn't turn off your old shit pointing to the old system when you were supposed to. You'll need to find an alternate solution now" email on a Monday. One member of their team puts in a ticket about something only tangentially related, but definitely caused by the old system shutdown, not working on Wednesday. It doesn't reach me personally due to lack of any useful details, instead just sitting in my team's generic queue.
That Friday, 30 fucking minutes before we close for the week, I get a response from the next manager up the chain from the one that played games with this shit earlier. Clearly the shitty manager is trying to play politics now by bringing in his own manager, who hadn't been in the chain. "Thanks for letting us know, we've been trying to troubleshoot this all week! How do we resolve this?"
So, their team ignored my email. Still didn't understand anything from any of the previous emails in the chain or else they wouldn't have had anything to waste time failing to troubleshoot. You tried to send data to a system/server that no longer exists. Then this power play right before closing in what I think was an attempt to be able to blame me for being a week behind on something.
"You would need to follow the instructions I've attached from my first email about this sent to [shitty manager] on [over a month ago]. Please let me know if you jave any questions!"
Last I heard from them. Hooray!
They are setting this as an optional feature. They are not just disabling it.
Yeah, I think you just found the Oblivion/Skyrim "stealth archer" equivalent for those games.
The modern Tomb Raider reboots are... I dunno, spectacle adventure games? They sure aren't stealth or shooting focused. Maybe platforming puzzles? That's not really the focus either. Anyway, the challenge of any "combat" section in that goes out the window if you're halfway decent at "click on the head". I played the first two on Xbox Gamepass and headshots made combat pretty laughable even with the handicap of playing with a controller.
Death Stranding, as you said, isn't about the combat. And I totally beat the first "BT monster" fight that you're supposed to run from on my first try, not knowing it was coming. Though that was with grenades technically. Halfway decent shooting skills don't melt the difficulty quite as much as with Tomb Raider, but they still make it far easier than I think is intended.
And like you suspected, both of those were absolutely designed as "console first" games.
Can't speak to Metro.
Someone gifted this to my wife and I after our successful IVF. Still haven't put our photos in it, and everytime I see it I giggle.
Miracle Love Baby sounds like some magical girl anime shit.
Honestly? That's rookie numbers.
Preface
I'm not trying to call out the mod action of removing my post from the comm so much as I'm calling out the complete lack of mod action leading to the comm becoming shit and having the current top post by scaled, hot, and active being a post that explicitly targets another lemmy user.
That out of the way... !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world has clearly been slipping from the purpose of the comm for a while now. Most of the posts are actually infuriating and/or political. I understand that what qualifies as either of those can be different for different people, but I feel most of this shit clearly isn't mundane or simple enough to fall under the label of just mildly infuriating.
Here's some examples from the first page right now, sorted by scaled.
While I could have sworn the sidebar had a no politics rule, it doesn't at the time of me writing this up, so politics are arguably acceptable, although I personally feel these all clearly don't match the theme of the community, violating Rule 7.
Sidebar, and expanded rule 7
A few other posts have been made calling this out.
Mod harder and [META] What actually constitutes "mildly infuriating" content?
################################
Beyond all that mess, we have what was the final straw for me.
Rule 1 (and less so 5), and the current top post by scaled, hot, and active.
I cannot accept that a post to mildly infuriating that targets a specific user while not even removing their username is respectful, and I personally consider it harassment (while it may not violate rule 5 as there is no call to action). Removing the username is usually the bare minimum even in the fucking reddit brigading subs, for plausible deniability.
And regardless of whatever arguments can be had about interpretations of the community's specific rules, it's a dick move. Just block the guy. It reminds me of the god awful reddit dogpiling and brigading. I don't want any of that to come to lemmy.
So I reported it, then saw the recent posts asking mods for action that got no response. I then looked at the mods.
So I did something dumb as hell. Roughly an hour after I reported it, I made my own post (now removed from the comm). I find people who make call out posts about others, and the absentee mods allowing it, mildly infuriating. Yeah, childish as shit. What's done is done.
Modlog:
Removed for "doesn't fit community", but what do you folks think? Does it really not fit when the top post is what it is? Personally I think both should be gone, lest that comm descend further into shit.
Either way, now that I have this yell into the void out of me, I'm blocking the comm. Maybe I should have made my post in actually infuriating? (kidding)
That is a threat.
From some back to school flyer.
I have so many great memories from childhood vacations to Mystery Flesh Pit National Park. I cant believe the disaster happened all the way back in 2007.
At least someone has been collecting and documenting everything they can find from the old place: https://www.mysteryfleshpitnationalpark.com/
I still can't make it all the way through the disaster report.
Definitely a repost, but it fits the season
There's no need for them to go fishing when they've got more incriminating shit from lemmy data for free. Community subscriptions and even up and downvotes on lemmy aren't private.
