Hotchpotch, in Worse than waiting for that one 3PM appointment

The memes here are so spot on!

securitysushi,

If it's one thing the internet makes right, it's memes!

lenguen, in How to avoid duplicate communities?

Based on my understanding you should be able to search for communities via https://browse.feddit.de/ It'll show communities from all federated servers.

AaronNBrock,

Pardon the noop question ~ but how do I join a community on a different server?

xavier666,

Assuming that the name of the community is !community@otherinstance

Normal way

  • Open lemm.ee and click the search icon
  • Paste the community link in the search bar and hit enter. It should appear in the search list
  • Click the community link. The community page should open
  • Click Subscribe

Hacker way

  • Open a new tab in your browser and in the URL bar, type lemm.ee/c/community@otherinstance
  • Click Subscribe
scutiger, in Here goes… I don’t know what.

Languages that used line numbers didn't use semicolons to mark the end of a statement.

Also, this program would just say "goto 10" and then would popup an error because "hello world!" is not a statement.

But I'm just being silly.

Jumbling up that bit of rote code was the joke! But the semicolon isn’t supposed to end the line; it tells BASIC to suppress the newline after the print statement. Makes for a better endlessly scrolling text experience ;)

poVoq, in Should we move to KBIN?

This will be more or less the same with Kbin and inherent with Federation.

Wintersong, in Hardwired - the book that inspired Cyberpunk 2020

I had no idea Cyberpunk was inspired by this book. I once listened to it on audiobook when I was on a big binge of Cyberpunk stories a few years back. I'll be honest I don't remember a super amount of it, it sorta merges with the others I listened to then a little bit, but I do remember enjoying it at least. I did like the idea of the orbitals (well I don't if that was reality but you get what I mean..), powerful corporations that live in space rather than bother with Earth, which does feel like a path we could go down.. The "rock war" too intrigued me because I remember I had only just read about tungsten rods possibly being used in space in that way a little while before listening to the book.
I never ended up getting the sequels though, I don't remember even seeing them until now, I think the book ended pretty well from what I remember.

Liontigerwings, in What is it currently like on Reddit, to people still using it?

The people left behind are reddit bootlickers. I wouldn't go back but my sports communities aren't tech savvy enough to figure out the fediverse.

deaththekid00, in Daily random discussion - Jun 15, 2023

Medyo nalilito pa rin ako how this works lol. Or maybe pangit lang na client si Jerboa?

Alpha pa lang yung Jerboa so it's still rough around the edges.

Timwi, in Twitch bans multicasting/simulcasting

Thanks for the heads-up, I didn’t know that. I’ll need to remember that if I ever stream again on Twitch.

asteroidrainfall, (edited ) in What is your favorite phone OS growing up?
asteroidrainfall avatar

Palm OS was ahead of its time as well. It’s a shame that they couldn’t adapt fast enough to keep their relevance.

Though I grew up in the age of feature phones. The Razor was all the rage. Man, it was so thin.

i am so surprised i have never heard of it, but i keep seeing it in this thread

epyon22,

Webos was so far ahead of it's time. It took years of android porting many of it's features over. Now it just lives on TV's.

It's hard to comprehend how far ahead the palm pre and webos was. Sprint wasn't even selling android phones yet. But webos had cards, advanced account integrations, full browser and a beautiful interface

Timwi, in What is your favorite phone OS growing up?

You make me feel so old, dude. My first handheld device was a Pocket PC in 2000, and I was already grown up by then.

my first handheld was the classic gameboy haha

Oh lol, well if that counts, then mine too!! I was thinking general-purpose device comparable to a modern smartphone.

thats so cool.. it ate so many batteries though and didnt even have backlight haha still love it, and especially the opening nintendo sound

Timwi,
Timwi avatar

My favorite music was the end-credits music of SuperMarioLand. I would play through the whole game just to hear it, and then keep it going on infinite loop until it ran out of battery.

i loved its for sure too! thats cute hahah

Timwi, in Why can't I google anything on the Fediverse?
Timwi avatar

The robots.txt file on this instance (https://kbin.social/robots.txt) disallows crawling.

By contrast, it appears that lemmy.ml and lemmy.world allow crawling (https://lemmy.ml/robots.txt).

I wonder if crawling is disallowed since a week ago this site was basically still a prototype?

I see, that makes sense.

Oh GOD that link preview though!

Guildo, in Warum Netto so geil ist

Das Sortiment sollte schon einigermaßen ok sein. Also nicht so frisch, dass es noch grün ist - damit kann ich leben. Aber wenigstens nicht verschimmelt. Der Pfandautomat kann dreckig sein, sollte aber abends mal kurz abgewischt werden. Dass Mitarbeiter eine gewisse Freiheit haben, auch ok. Aber hey, es sollte auch genug Personal da sein, niemand sollte gestresst sein. Wenn sich die schon alle gegenseitig anbrüllen, scheint da was nicht zu stimmen. Also stellt mehr Leute ein. Lieber mehr als zu wenig.

Zum Design und das ist das größte Manko: Fick diese modernen Filialen. Ich will Fliesenboden haben und kein Laminat. Ich will schlichte Regale haben mit günstigen Produkten, keine Pappaufsteller überall, die mir anpreisen, dass ich dieses oder dieses Produkt kaufen soll. Stellt mir die nötigsten Produkte in die einfachsten Regale und ich bin glücklich. Hauptsache ich finde alles. Ich will das alte Aldi-Design zurück mit der schlechten Beleuchtung und dem Zucker, der auf dem Boden liegt, weil alles nur in Paletten angeliefert wird. Und verdammt nochmal, ich will den guten Tetrapak-Eistee zurück!

edgerunneralexis, (edited ) in Idea: a general cyberpunk community

My bad, it wasn't deleted, it was hidden from me because if you set Lemmy to hide posts you've already read, it immediately hides all your own posts as well. I guess yeah, technically I have read my own posts! Anyways, sorry for being a gonk.

doomkernel, in Vamos a agitarla un poco, a ver si hacemos la migración más feliz

Aguante los lemmiturros(?
