Although you can't both charge the phone/use pripherals, like a keyboard/mouse and use headphones in that case, unless you're using one of the few phones with 2+ USB-C ports, and wireless charging can be cumbersome.
Especially since doing that will let you Federate through compromised comments, and possibly affect other instances using the Federation network, unless they're updated.
No. The existing Lemmy-Lite that was advertised on join-Lemmy.org appears to be massively out of date, and no longer actively maintained.
It was a bug with Lemmy-UI, so you might be able to get away using an app or site that isn't vulnerable. Whether that is Wefwef, one of the apps, like Jerboa, or something that is Federated, but not Lemmy, like Kbin, or Mastodon (things might be a bit clunky if you do, since Lemmy threads aren't well handled by Mastodon).
Even TOS had a blatant anti-racism episode where the conclusion was very much explicitly "if we don't get along, we'll be left extinct on an empty, dead husk of a planet".
Others did get hacked, or are vulnerable to it, but aren't big enough targets?
Beehaw is closed, so they would have had to have an existing account to exploit the same bug (or go through something like Kbin), and Lemmy.world is the biggest Lemmy instance.
Yes. They got hacked. An admin account got compromised, and the hackers exploited a bug in Lemmy-UI (the web site) that let them do things like redirect users to another site that let them run Javscript. It seems to have let them collect some user tokens from accounts, and access an admin account that way.
That sounds like a horrid decision. Imagine having to troubleshoot a relative's computer, which isn't working because their internet is down, or is too slow to support streaming Windows like that.
It just sounds like a nightmare all-round, both from a Microsoft Standpoint, since they would have to build all the hardware to support it, people who would have to troubleshoot an issue that might show up on either the local or networked version of Windows, but not both, and from a security standpoint, since it seems like it would make it a lot easier to just hijack the whole computer using that kind of mechanism, with the user being none the wiser, for the most part.
Possible, but I think it's more related to the slowdown issues that lemmy.world was having with the 0.18.1-rc updates. Although it's worth pointing out that since the backend is down for one reason or another, they're unlikely to see this until it federates.
Most communities on other instances (especially lemmy.ml, but most other instances seem affected) seem still desperately empty and dead when viewed from here, despite vibrant activity as seen directly from there....
Its impossible to join communities .ml when you are on. world : “pending”. Its been 24h and it never changes to joined. Ive got 20-30 comminuted I tried to join that are pending.
This at least, seems to be a visual glitch on Lemmy. A community can show as "pending", but you're still otherwse joined to it.

Although you have to wonder how much advertisers would actually pony up if most of the Reddit users weren't actual users at all. They want people to do the clicking, and if the users are all bots, they're likely not going to bother wasting their money at that point.
I wholeheartedly agree with this blog post. I believe someone on here yesterday was asking about config file locations and setting them manually. This is in the same vein. I can't tell you how many times a command line method for discovering the location of a config file would have saved me 30 minutes of googling.

@lauren To be fair, the submersible story did come to a close. Parts of the submersible were found (the controller was found, intact, on the seafloor), which indicates that the craft imploded. They haven't found the bodies, but it's doubtful that they would even qualify as bodies by that point, after being smashed by the unrestrained might of the ocean.
The coup just got lucky enough to hit the news right after that, giving the news media something new to latch onto.
EDIT: Turns out that the controller photograph was a fabrication, but it remains that parts of the submersible were found.
It's pretty interesting as a Star Trek show, since I think that it is also one of the few that actually pushed its boundaries. It might not have been well-received, but it also tried to do something new, like Deep Space 9, and the original Star Trek, and stuck to that something new, despite having to find its footing under a myriad of production issues.
Although I would say that it wasn't a direct adaptation in and of itself. It seemed to be following the lead of the 2009 films in that sense, seemingly leaning on some of their groundwork to try and "modernise" Trek. They didn't quite succeed, but the attempt is at least commendable.
Personally, though, I'm more of a TOS fan, just because the world building seemed much more expansive on the older show, but TNG is also quite good.
It doesn't seem to have been implemented for the time being. You might have to make do with using a search engine with the site:kbin.social/m/[magazine] parameter.

Hot take: 18 years of user contributions to reddit will serve as a base model for an AI that generates content and conversations. the reddit experience continues as a simulation, to harvest clicks, sales and ad revenue.
