Comment for info. Piefed. zip died in the app yesterday.

Piefed. zip works in the browser and the app is able to load Lemmy. zip

Sort by new/all, build your blocklist and enjoy. While this would never work for a popular platform, it works great for something as niche as Lemmy/piefed.

Block the elements with an ad blocker if it’s a site you frequent often .

No, just domestic pressure.

Sure, to make it safer in the same way Microsoft made you safer by making it harder to install Linux with UEFI.

No, I lick the entire keypad/keyboard after entering my pass/pin to ensure my DNA is on all keys. This is the only true path to security.

No. No I wouldn’t.

Not dead. Just irrelevant.

“Let it be free, but control it to keep this part out.”

That’s literally what you’re experiencing. You get to witness the flaw in the part where you don’t get to pick the entity that decides which content doesn’t belong.

Not to answer for him but I took his reply to simply mean that he hoped they were being honest in their teachings.

The less you give to Google, the better.

For the most fragile of egos.

My list of people blocked? Teeny-tiny. My list of instances and communities? Well, now we’ve hit the jackpot.

The only manual I need is the one that tells me how to shut his pompous ass up.

Save your minutes, skip all reaction videos.

First, happy belated birthday. I hope it still managed to be a positive overall.

Secondly, kudos to you for your self-awareness. Most people would be unable to admit their unexpected attachment to the trappings of a birthday and would just chalk it up to people not caring.

To your point, I think it’s born of two main things. First, as people get older, those around us outside of the immediate family tend to retire the gift-giving on birthdays. Perhaps they don’t celebrate their own any longer and it fans out to those in their circle or maybe they just don’t think a gift is necessary as we continue aging.

I think the second cause might be that as we get older, we keep adding people to our circle of friends and at some point, it just seems larger than we can manage in regards to gift giving to everyone that deserves it. Couple that with being told by you that gifts weren’t necessary, It seems a logical conclusion to come to.

All that being said, unless our friend or family has specifically said they didn’t like to celebrate it, we should all make a big deal of someone’s big day.

No dispute on my end but the fact remains he’s a unfitting example for the meme as he was the fourth CEO in the company’s history and wasn’t in the picture when it was founded.

Elon is not the founder of Tesla. He sued the actual founders to bury that fact.

Since the rules preclude it, we can’t discuss what Lemmy is most biased about. The remaining biases tend to be in the tech/nerdcore genre, which makes sense, since many average Joe users have problems navigating the registration/instance selection process, keeping their numbers down on the platform.

Instances often temporarily block participation from certain VPN traffic due to coordinated attacks that occur from those IPs. Most instances lift the ban when the attacks taper off.
