When I go to my profile, I can see all of my comments and posts that I’ve saved, but I can’t see my own posts (even though it does say that I have two). There is no post score, either....
I have the same problem even after unchecking read posts. Of course, it’s a bug either way. In the meantime I just always click the save post button so my posts show up there instead.
When I was in elementary school, the cafeteria switched to disposable plastic trays because the paper ones hurt trees. Stupid, I know… but are today’s initiatives any better?
Well, I just made hobbit.world and intend to only have Tolkien related communities there. So block away if that’s not your thing. However, the only way to block an instance is to defederate and that’s kind of harsh. Hopefully the feature of blocking communities by instance is added.
Out of curiosity, do men generally measure the lengths of their pps? I asked my fiancé and he says he hasn’t. Wondering if he’s in the minority, or if he’s actually lying and just won’t tell me.
The Curta calculator is a marvel of engineering made by a guy who developed it while imprisoned by Nazis.
You specify numbers on the side and spin the handle up top to add them. You multiply numbers by specifying one number on the side then spinning the handle and rotating the collar.
Hard to describe via text. But there are lots of YouTube videos about it.
This particular model is special because it’s a cutaway model meant for demonstrating how it works internally. It’s a rare version of an already rare calculator and I absolutely love it.
The Curta feels so tactile in the way it works. You can feel the numbers being added when you rotate the handle and feel the zip of the mechanical parts interacting.
Since usernames are only unique to the instance it’s created on, what’s to stop someone from creating a copycat username in order to impersonate another user?
The same science has happened in two places at once before. Lots of people rush to publish to avoid getting scooped.
Religion is just fiction, so this has not happened there. Heck, Joseph Smith couldn’t even invent his religion twice without messing things up.
Maybe not precisely the same as the quote, but it’s pretty similar. If there was a true religion, you’d expect it to have happened many times identically all over the world.
Watch collectors are kind of an odd bunch. I’m talking about “dumb” watches specifically - watches that only tell time and don’t have any sort of smartphone connectivity or biometric tracking. Some of the fancier models might have a timer on them, but you’re certainly not going to be getting text notifications. Watches...
I was a happy Netflix user until 2018, before that I haven’t really pirated any movies (with very rare exceptions) for almost a decade but I recently started again. I’m was doing my monthly budgeting and realized I was paying for too many subscription services. Netflix, Amazon Prime, Shudder, Disney+, Hulu and Crunchyroll....

Will we look back at today's "go green" initiatives as stupid and inadequate?

[NSFW] Men of Lemmy, do you guys measure your dicks?
Out of curiosity, do men generally measure the lengths of their pps? I asked my fiancé and he says he hasn’t. Wondering if he’s in the minority, or if he’s actually lying and just won’t tell me.
[SOLVED] I set up the Lemmy instance hobbit.world, but cannot see other instances.
Everything works great there locally, but I can’t subscribe to communities on other instances and can’t see my instance from lemmy.world....

joining the fediverse to bitch about reddit is the same as going on a date, and spending the whole night talking about your ex

Which is better for a Lemmy instance name? tolkien.life or hobbit.world?
I bought both domains, but can’t decide which to use.
