I know what the general process is (mix essential oils, etc.), but I have no sense of smell so I have no way to know if the result is good. I’d like to read some scent theory but I don’t even know where to begin.
If you use my snippet, I want your game. If you don’t agree, then you can’t use my snippet. The purpose of the GPL is simply to prevent people who don’t share from benefitting from people who do, which I think is pretty fair.
At some point, I ran across an argument along the lines of: “We hunger, and food exists. We thirst, and water exists. We feel horny, and sex is real. We yearn for God, and so I conclude that God exists.”...
The reason some desires are universal is that they are achievable, thus it makes sense that an entity that looks for them exists. And we don’t yearn for God, we yearn for happiness, empathy and staying alive, and some of us have created a conceptual entity that gives us an infinite supply of those.
Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement...
I've had a great time on Lemmy since I joined over 2y ago. But well, can't keep all the fun to ourselves, right? :) Now this place is all yours too. Welcome aboard!
It's Reddit but federated. A federated service is one that works like e-mail, i.e. there are multiple providers/servers/instances but all of them are connected so it doesn't matter which one you choose. Additionally, Lemmy is federated to other services (e.g. Mastodon), forming what's known as the Fediverse.
If the reddit exodus happens and Lemmy gets even 2% of reddit's daily active users, how will Lemmy sustain the increased traffic? I know donations are an option, but I don't think long term donations will be sustainable. Most users will never donate....
It would be an interesting shot across the bow to corporate controlled social media to show opensource, open access social medias growth. I'm sure its in an exponential phase. It also would seem important to the community to know. Is there a way to query across the fediverse to look at user numbers?
Lemmy and the Fediverse. Select 'Active last month' for best estimation of actual activity. E.g., this is the current burst in Lemmy due to the Reddit exodus:
ChatGPT will gobble up every symbolic manipulation task I give to it. At worst, sometimes I have to check its output and point out anything weird, then it'll correct it....
Well, the good thing about Jerboa is that anyone can just make changes to it and send them to the devs, so now that more people are using Lemmy, it will improve really quickly!
tl;dr: Intel and AMD are not selling their processors to Russia, and processors from Russian companies cannot be manufactured as Taiwan is banning TSMC from doing so, while Russia can only produce chips up to a 90 nm process.
A website asking me to “disable ad-blocker” has the balls to tell me I should turn off Firefox Tracking Protection. That’s like saying “yeah, we absolutely want to track you across websites, would you do us a favor and let us do it? Please :)”

I never got into mastodon because I couldn't connect multiple instances. I like this a lot about Lemmy so far (just here for a few minutes though)....

Would be helpful for most new users to understand how Lemmy works and how the different hosts interact with each other in a basic way.

Does any one know a way to quantify the growth of lemmy/ the fediverse?
