McBinary, to politics in Trump Announces Plans to Finally Go Ahead and Prove Election Was Rigged

I thought that was what we were talking about to begin with? It's him, he tried to do the rigging.

I was going to open an issue on codeberg; but 1) my account there isn't letting me log in and 2) I have no idea how to word the issue... Threads are posting, but they are not. I can see them, but also not; and only behave correctly while I'm logged out. It's confusing, and I don't know how anyone else would be able to recreate it...

I'm having the same issue posting new threads. It will error, and no new thread shows up in the magazine - however the thread is visible from my profile.

Now, if I navigate to the thread from my profile while logged in, there is nothing in the thread. If I log out, the thread is visible in the magazine and there is comments in the thread... So weird.

Can you try viewing he magazine while logged out to see if its visible then?

McBinary, to books in [Weekly] What are you reading this week? [8/13/23]

Prolific week. I read 4:

I finished Abaddon's Gate by James Corey yesterday. I still maintain the TV show is better than the books, but this is the first place I've seen divergence from the main story. I don't recall seeing Samara or Pa in the TV show, but they played a pretty big part in this book. I think Camina Drummer was introduced in the TV show in place of Pa, and there was a lot of overlap of Bull's story that they gave to Camina in the show. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Camina is one of my favorite characters, but a lot of her badassery was tacked on and is attributed to other characters in the book. Ashford though, they made him likable in the TV show, and I will never forgive book version. :|

I finished Rogue Protocol by Martha Wells earlier this week. Quick read, It's book 3 in the Murderbot series. All of them have been fun so far. I'm really enjoying seeing "Consultant Wren" start to connect with others.

[audiobook] I also listened to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams; read by Stephen Fry. I've read this book a couple of times over the years, and was interested in hearing Stephen Fry narrate it. I was not disappointed. :)

I started, and finished, We Are Legion (We are Bob) by Dennis E. Taylor last night. First off, "WOW!" This one was a lot of fun. I would recommend this one to anyone who enjoys sci-fi with a sense of humor. Lots of nerdy fandom references and jokes for those of us who grew up on sci-fi TV/Movies and live in a constant state of regurgitating pop culture references.

McBinary, to AskKbin in When you run out of newer TV shows and movies to watch, what are old favorites you go back to?

I typically resort to reading when I run out of good shows to watch.

It happens pretty quickly for me. I usually watch a whole season in one sitting though. I absolutely will not watch a TV show unless it has multiple seasons for this reason.

Looking at all the books in that series, it looks like they get better and better with each book. Thanks for sharing!

I found the bobiverse books on kindle unlimited! It's next on my list. :)

Thanks! I'll check out those other 3 first. Also, I had no idea that Sphere was his story. I really enjoyed that movie when I was in highschool!

McBinary, to kbinMeta in Periodic Kbin Updates
McBinary avatar

Sorry to hear you're having a rough go of it, but glad you're on the other side of it now. <3

Also, thanks for the reply! Would this be something you could delegate out to someone? I understand you have a lot on your plate.

McBinary, to fediverse in Lemmy and Kbin: The Best Reddit Alternatives?
McBinary avatar

Because they have like 15 mobile apps.

McBinary, to upliftingnews in FDA approves first ever pill for postpartum depression
McBinary avatar

Honestly, the trick will be to get every new mother to take it by default. Everyone always thinks they're fine... until they're not. Feeling overwhelmed and 'blue' is very common, it's the postpartum psychosis that is the problem and there is no way to tell whether someone is just going to get tearful or drown their baby. So, I think it should just be routine for mom to take this for a few weeks postpartum.

This one looks fun! Definitely adding it to my 'read-list'!

Side note - I get a lot of good recommendations from you all, so thanks for that!

McBinary, to RedditMigration in The Reddit Protest Is Finally Over. Reddit Won.
McBinary avatar

Yeah. that is probably true for many since we all came looking for an alternative due to the loss of our mobile app... Lemmy is a little more mature since it's been around a lot longer, so it already had an API to build on. @Rideranton has been working on an API and has several pending pull requests to implement one. I truly believe kbin is a better software so I'm hoping that the API sparks more dev interest.
