Lemmy Community Seeder (LCS) - For pre-populating the "All" feed (github.com)

When launching a new Lemmy instance, your All feed will have very little populated. Also as a small instance, new communities that crop up may never make their way to you. LCS is a tool to seed communities, so your users have something in their All feed, right from the start. It tells your instance to pull the top communities...

The Washington Post said it had the Alito flag story 3 years ago and chose not to publish (apnews.com)

Nine days after The New York Times reported about the political symbolism of an upside-down American flag that flew at U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s home, the Washington Post acknowledged it had the same story more than three years ago and decided not to publish it....

fmstrat,

Good link, but not complicated. Judges got a pass on reporting before they started making politically-based decisions. Now they are treated like politicians. The only complicated part is the WP had this for 3 years without publishing.

fmstrat,

No, it’s in the article.

fmstrat,

But the neighbors had signs up before the flag, which they could claim it was in response to. Claim is of course the key word.

fmstrat,

Is it me, or is the headline misleading? This article doesnt challenge Alito’s timeline, it confirms it.

fmstrat,

I could hear some guys in my neighborhood outside yesterday talking about how this won’t effect the election. One of them yelled out “Well at least the republicans are the ones with the guns!” Everyone just kinda got quiet and looked at him like he was an idiot.

Remember he’s not the only dangerous one. Every vote counts, and all of them are voting red.

fmstrat,

Separately, Salem is also suing its insurer for allegedly failing to cover the costs stemming from Andrews’ lawsuit.

Denying insurance since it was a grift. This is huge news and I’m surprised media isn’t all over it. What better way to discourage fraud than to show people they will be personally or professionally liable.

fmstrat,

Read everyone, this is hype, and Canada is being dumb on this one.

The Flipper Zero is also incapable of defeating keyless systems that rely on rolling codes, a protection that’s been in place since the 1990s that essentially transmits a different electronic key signal each time a key is pressed to lock or unlock a door.

Most of this reaction is due to staged videos on TikTok and politicians not understanding technology. Maybe they’ll stop a few joyriding kids, but car thiefs aren’t using F0s.

fmstrat,

Nice. Made my Top All Today feed, too. Congrats.

fmstrat,

Just put Bazzite on my gaming rig. This house only has doors.

Side of bed debate - Which side is left?

Which side of the bed is the left side? Is the answer based on the perspective of laying in the bed (person’s head at the head end)? Is the answer based on viewing it from the foot of the bed, looking at the head of the bed? Is there an “anatomical position” or special terminology like in boating for this?...

Can I refuse MS Authenticator?

So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s...

fmstrat,

fmstrat,

Volume. A long time ago, ten replies was huge, not a thousand.

Join the communities, follow the people, and start conversations where the world is still small, you’ll find what you are looking for.

The filter is your friend, social sites are not the only sites (federated ones included), and there are many destinations to participate as long as you dont hunt for exposure to the masses.

Edit: Friendly reminder that IRC, web comics, and niche forums still exist.

fmstrat,

I’ll bite in case this isn’t trolling. They are likely referring to how people, even those who were fairly liberal, made it seem like Bernie was too far out there to be a valid choice for president.
