Hey I’m new here. What do you mean by change instance? Like I see the different subs/communities or what y’all call em, but I’ve just been scrolling through the “everything” tab or whatever it’s called.
I followed some of my interests but generally I just sort by top in the past hour and scroll away.
In the famous words of Scott Pilgrim: “BREAD MAKES YOU FAT?!”
Ah. I guess that makes sense. I only ever go on social media from my phone so I will only be viewing Lemmy through the lens of Sync I guess. Thanks for the info.
If that’s intentional that seems like a bad idea. Just gonna lead to confusion on the users end and more posts asking why things are “broken”.
Thank you for the info. Are there any other symbols or site quirks I should know about?
Rule 1 for Lemmy overall or that specific sub? Cause I don’t see any rules listed under the “about” tab. I didn’t break rule 1 as its written as far as I can tell. So that just feels like mod abuse because they didn’t like what I said or something.
I also didn’t get any sort of notification for this temporary ban. Is that intentional? It was simply giving me “network errors” whenever I tried to upvote something and the feedback for the user was very unclear.
I know I’m asking a lot of questions but can anyone see the ban logs for everything? I am obviously very new and still trying to figure out how this whole shindig works.
Edit: Thank you for the info. It was very thorough and you didn’t have to do all those links and everything. But it was very appreciated.
I’m just gonna leave this here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_spectrum#:~:text=The terms right and left,various legislative bodies of France.
To 99% of the population of you say “left” they will think Democrats and if you say “right” they will think Republicans. I’m not saying those definitions are strictly accurate, but that is how most people would lump those things.
I do not differentiate left/liberal/Democrats the same exact way I don’t differentiate conservatives/Republicans/right. Those groups share enough overlap that unless you’re specifically talking about a very slim slice of one of those sub groups you can generally use any of them to refer to the same groups interchangeably.
…do you even know where the term left and right wing started??? The Democratic party definitely has more overlap with the left than the right.
I’m curious what alternate reality definition you’re using though. Please explain your thoughts process. Show your work.
6 alarms each a minute apart. 5 from my phone and 1 from my Google home.
My mom used to have to dump ice water on me to get me outta bed for school.
Once I’m asleep I’m pretty sure you could throw me outta an airplane and I wouldn’t wake up.
Fan for air flow and noise (I’ve got tinnitus). Rub one out. Small glass of cold water. I’ll roll over and pass tf out in seconds.
Highly recommended, but not necessary: Take an edible ~ 2 hours before you wanna go to sleep so you’re in the middle of riding that high when it’s time to crash.
Chronically online people cannot grasp just how “normal” most every day of their lives will continue to be regardless of who is sitting in the oval office.
Obviously I know there will be effects on many people, but for the grand majority of Americans their daily life will continue on without much change as it did through the first Trump term and the Biden term.
The Republicans cried that Obama was going to ruin the nation both terms. The Democrats are terrified Trump will somehow end this country this time around when they lived through his first term just fine.
Basically whichever party loses acts like a cat that can suddenly see the bottom of their food bowl and they think they are gonna die.
Ohhhhh you’re a communist. No wonder you don’t understand anything. Your brain is completely void of logical thought.
Well you have fun with that. I won’t be responding to you after this message. While I am generally open to discussing most things I have learned that trying to have a real conversation with self described communists on the Internet is a complete waste of time.
Have a good day.
Just take a scoop out and bring it back. Should be easy right? Lol
Don’t you hate it when you accidentally drag an object along the sea floor where known communication cables are laying?
God I just did it last week. Totally an accident I swear.
I don’t understand this recent claim that the left and Democrats aren’t the same thing.
Progressives, secularists and liberals have always been lumped into “left” and those people overwhelmingly overlap with what the Democrats claim to be all about.
The term “left” and “Democrat” are basically interchangeable for the most part.
Kinda like how Conservative/Republican/right have been pretty much interchangeable for a long time now.
As far as I can tell the only difference is the right doesn’t seem to care as much about labels and the left gets super upset when they aren’t labeled exactly right at all times.
Yeah ~2014-2015 I think is when they started really soldering everything together and adding adhesive or their new special screws to everything.
Edit: fat fingered wrong year
I used to be an apple certified repair technician. Fuck apple and everything they do.
Their hardware is purposely designed to be as unrepairable and difficult to get into as possible. They literally spent millions developing their own new screw types for the inside of their phones. Diabolical evil shit.
Their software is also ass, but I haven’t ever daily used any apple products in my life so I am less annoyed by that. I only had to know how to fix em for years. Every time I have to trouble shoot a user issue on Mac it takes me like twice as long to fix because again they design it to be hard to fix things.
Stupid company. Shitty products. Microsoft and windows are right behind them though. Good lord has windows just continued to get worse and worse over the course of my life.
He saw what Elon did and hes just gearing up to pull some similar shit in 2028. Just watch. Billionaires are just gonna openly buy politicians now. They don’t even have the decency to try and hide it behind several shell corporations like a normal wealthy POS anymore.
When I was ~10 I was running around the house with a white bedsheet over my head. I was pretending to be a ghost while I chased my older brother around the house. Unfortunately I slipped backwards on the sheet and hit the back of my head on my mom’s solid oak coffee table. Immediately blood started soaking the sheet red and I obviously screamed out in pain. My mom came running into the living room to find me screaming and the sheet just turning more and more red.
At this time we lived about an hour away from the nearest hospital and my mom knew if she tried to take me in for stitches that I would probably bite the doctor or something (I have a pathological fear of needles). So she opted to shave my head and tape it shut. Then she instructed my brother to keep me awake for the next few hours (she was worried about a concussion) and she let me watch whatever movie or play whatever video game I wanted for the rest of the day.
It healed fine and now I have a small scar on the back of my head that is only visible if I shave my hair super short.
Common sense/critical thinking 101.
It is utterly baffling watching some people just bumble through life completely clueless.
I have lost track of the number of adults who have no clue how do their taxes. They either have their parents do them or they pay someone to do them for themselves. I consider myself basically financially retarded, but I still learned the bare minimum to be able to do my own goddamn taxes.
People don’t know the bare minimum about their vehicles and it ends up costing them thousands.
People are oblivious to their surroundings and never prepared for anything even slightly.
People just do things without a single thought towards the potential consequences of their actions.
