@GayOldTime Is that a rainbow penis to the right of the strawberry Jello-O box?

I have seen websites reviewing Wayland over Xorg, and they show screen shots of their respective desktops. Can you tell the difference between Xorg and Wayland by looking at it?

Snow started this week.

@evan I'll trade you! It's in the mid-70s in Philadelphia, PA - which is insane for this time of year.

Elon Musk is for some reason attacking Wikipedia and we can't quite figure out why. The Hill reports on what the tech billionaire has said about the free online encyclopedia and what offer he made it.

    A laptop reviewer leaves his trusted machine behind and works on an iPad. Here’s why he might not go back. https://flip.it/Ssq1c7

    bluecanary3,

    @TechDesk I've been thinking about replacing my M1 MBA with an iPad Air, but the only thing that keeps me from making the jump is the browser. I use Safari and Firefox. I like my extensions on Firefox and know that I will be foregoing them if I used an iPad.

    How many TVs do you have in your house?📺

    bluecanary3,

    @dancinyogi But use is a different answer. I have 2 TVs in my house, but I haven't turned one on in many months.

    Google.com tests a news-filled homepage, just like Bing and Yahoo

    The mobile app has a "Google Discover" newsfeed, so the homepage should, too?

    @arstechnica I ❤️ the Bing.com homepage for the images and news, but my work blocks everything Microsoft. I would love Google to make this a reality.

    Can you tell if someone muted you?

    bluecanary3,

    @evan I have often worried that I have annoyed others that follow me with the items I have chosen to boost. But muting is a good way to let the other person know you care enough to follow them and it’s your secret if you chose to interact with them or not.

    Two immunologists answer some common questions, like the right time to get your shot and what's known about protection for the latest subvariants.

    What if the idea of “food is medicine” is taken literally?

    20+ pilot programs are taking place throughout the US where patients are receiving free home-delivered healthy meals, and seeing their health improve.

    In February, Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene called for a “national divorce” between red and blue states. Now, she’s taking her call for a schism even further by encouraging states to outright “consider seceding from the union.” https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/marjorie-taylor-greene-states-consider-seceding-from-the-union-1234822567/

    bluecanary3,

    @RollingStone MTG is a walking/talking "click bait" with everything she says. Why does the media even bother giving her headlines?

    Periodic reminder to not use Google Chrome (they’re moderating bookmarks now) https://strangeobject.space/@silvermoon82/110969122337810598

    Use Firefox or Safari, they have proper end-to-end encryption (browser maker can’t read the data) of bookmarks and other private and personal browsing information (like your passwords!).

    I can’t stress enough just how ridiculous it is that most of you just hand Google your passwords to everything from your bank accounts to porn sites.

    bluecanary3,

    @thomasfuchs Good to know Safari is okay to use as well. Unfortunately, my employer requires us to use Chrome.

    What was the first distribution you installed / attempted to install?

    For me - a Debian user - it was gentoo, around 2003, which was a mistake.

    bluecanary3,

    @neil It was the 90s and it was SUSE and it didn’t work. I kept at it and eventually got a Mandrake/Mandriva instance going, but I was most successful with Ubuntu for the hardware I was using.

    Edit: We shipped this, https://pixelfed.blog/p/2023/feature/introducing-sign-in-with-mastodon-streamlining-sign-up-and-login-on-pixelfed

    ✨ Sign-in with Mastodon is ready

    We're so excited to share a demo of this highly anticipated feature, and let you know it will be rolling out shortly!

    bluecanary3,

    @dansup @pixelfed I signed up today with the Sign-In with Mastodon feature. I followed my Mastodon followers, but decided against it but when I go to unfollow them on Pixelfed and refresh my browser, I'm still showing as following them. Bug?

    An American writer asked AI what Europeans think people in each U.S. state look like. The results are quite ... flattering? More from BuzzFeed: https://flip.it/bP-SiO

    @TechDesk I think this was spot on (except maybe for New Mexico).

    Do you want to see more posts about interesting topics in your Home timeline? And do you want your own posts to be noticed by others?

    Here's how to do both these things:

    1. Search for a hashtag you're interested in
    2. On the results page, click the + or Follow button in the top right corner
    3. Posts with that tag will start appearing in your Home timeline
    4. Follow lots more tags
    5. Include hashtags in your own posts, tag followers will then see your posts

    More info at https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-follow-hashtags-on-mastodon-and-the-fediverse/

    bluecanary3,

    @feditips I started following several hashtags but the posts I was getting were in German and not English. Is this because of the server I chose or because the users of that hashtag just happen to be German speakers?
