I came here during the Exodus. I just did a search on similar sites to Reddit. Lemmy was at the top. Been here ever since.

I guess it depends on how many inadequate people join them.

Not sure if this qualifies as planned obsolescence but Acer stopped supporting a tablet I bought in less than two years. I have been avoiding Acer products ever since.

I guess you’re right. Maybe I should switch to fascist. I’d fit right in.

So when I came here from Reddit I didn’t know what to pick, so I picked .world figuring it would be bigger or something. Over time it seems like people are saying that .ml is just horrible. I actually thought that .ml stood for militant full of right wing tankies ( don’t know the exact definition of that either). Lately someone essentially berated me for being on the worst one. Just now, I went to the little pull out on the side to see how to change it and what the options were and didn’t even see how to do that.

Bottom line, I have no clue how any of this works. I just wanted to see some interesting content, news from a different perspective, some fun memes, and some cool comments. I don’t even understand what fediverse means other than it’s kind of like borg technology, meaning that the information is spread across a bunch of servers instead of a single point of failure.

Maybe one day I’ll look into all of this, but seriously I have a life. As long as I open it and get what I want, I’m good. I almost never post because they are almost always removed for violating some rule. The last time I posted a question on a Linux forum and was getting some really good answers only to have it removed for violating a rule I didn’t even understand. LOL.

Good luck to you.

I respectfully commented in there once and was politely asked not to. It wasn’t really that militant, but I did get that vibe, so I believe you that that would happen.

Please tell me ESP32 with python is still a good option or did they get bought out too?

You know what would be really cool? If I could just ask AI to turn off the AI in my browser. Now that would be cool.

Spiders ARE bugs.

Spiders do not deserve this mercy. Kill on sight.

Oh I see. Yeah, I would prefer not to chance it security-wise. Which is funny because Microsoft IS the security risk.

Thanks but Fusion 360 says it will not work after January 1 on Windows 10. I might be able to migrate to FreeCad but I don’t have time to figure that out any time soon, plus I’m sure there are some games I’m going to be playing that the net says won’t work on Linux.

Thanks.

Awesome. Thanks.

Well they won’t be getting mine. I won’t be in my car on Halloween, I’ll be at home, watching scary movies and drinking rum and coke while giving out increasingly large handfuls of candy to those that actually use the words “trick or treat.”

Also eating candy.

And possibly throwing up.

Well the cure is clearly to stop testing.

With everything that’s going on these days, I can’t even watch cop shows anymore.

I’m really bad with faces but so far I’ve avoided having to do this. But I AM getting older.

You got that right. Lost my eyebrows once designing “custom rocket engines” with my best friend. Ahhhh, good times.

Yup did that as a kid. Totally passed out. Later found out it’s kind of dangerous.
