In light of lemmy.world's pre-emptive defederation of hexbear, would anyone support defederating lemmy.world?
  • Yeah, it felt a lot like "you need to prove you're worthy" more than just proving you're not a bot.

  • Adding to what others have said, opposing viewpoints are GOOD. Well reasoned opinions should be encouraged. I don't want to end up in another curated echo chamber built by someone else. Add the tools for users to block an instance and for blocks to work better in general. Give us the tools to decide our content. Leave the curation up to the users.

    Otherwise you'll just end up with everyone spinning up their own instance and building a million individual echo chambers(tho it wouldn't be bad if there were more instances lol)

  • Add the fact that lemmy.ml and others were/still are doing applications for sign up instead of an automated system. I applied twice for a .ml account and never got a single response, not even a denial or "your application is being processed". I have no idea if my application was ever even seen.

    On the other hand, I signed up to lemmy.world and kbin.social in minutes and have been using them ever since.

  • After many weekends and sleepless nights later, here's the first gameplay trailer for my personal project
  • No worries. In case that came off overly critical, please know I just want you to shine. Not accusing you of anything. Just want your unique self to show through. That's part of the beauty of an indie project; it's not the same corporate stuff.

  • I can't be the only one thinking that your image looks like a knockoff of "Star Wars: Rogue One". Same font, same alignment of words.... Make the game YOUR game. Don't rely on familiarity with other brands to draw people in. They'll be disappointed when it's NOT a Star Wars game and you also open yourself up to legal issues from Disney, who owns the star wars brand.

  • Shoes that dont wear out and start falling apart after a year?
  • No problem. I walk ~14 miles a day at work and they hold up nicely. I put some Superfeet insoles in them when I buy them. Here's a pic of the old ones with ~18 months/4000 miles on them next to the same pair brand new. The old ones are still in working condition and have no real issues other than the cosmetic wear. Just wanted to get a new pair lol

  • Shoes that dont wear out and start falling apart after a year?
  • Bought mine around 2020 and they lasted maybe 9 months before holes were forming in the toe area.

    Bought Keens next and haven't had any issues. Last pair I put 4000 miles on them and the rubber covering the steel toe had worn a nickel sized hole, but otherwise they were still in great shape and fully functional.

  • Do you think editing titles of posts a good idea?
  • I feel like edits within a short window should be allowed for error correction. After that it should probably be locked.

    If it's left unlocked, either temporarily or permanently, there should be an edit history akin to Wikipedia to track the changes.

  • Reddit is bringing back r/Place at perhaps the worst possible time
  • QR codes are WAY too easy to break with a few wrong pixels tho. Would be almost impossible to keep it intact. Text is a better alternative. Or logos because people might leave it alone as you draw it waiting to see what it becomes.

  • Triangle (not to scale)
  • Lmao that IS NOT how "scale" works. Proportions stay the same.

  • Triangle (not to scale)
  • You can't make a 3 sided object with 4 sides. It's no longer a triangle and is a square. It's the definitions themselves. Non-euclidian geometry would allow the angles to equal more than 180°, but not to "add a side".

  • Triangle (not to scale)
  • A triangle with 90° angles, yes.

    But not a four sided TRIANGLE. That itself is a contradiction.

  • /m/MagHub. I made a mag dedicated to promoting yours (or others) magazines!
  • It's on Lemmy, but you might want to consider partnering with @newcommunities They do something very similar.

  • A break from the lawn: can an iconic meadow seed wider change?
  • Which denies food for the things that eat the ticks, leaving no predators for the ticks, making the ticks worse since they're not having their population controlled. And then those predators of the ticks, that were food for OTHER animals, have less food themselves and slowly the whole ecosystem collapses.

    There's a reason that once you start heavy pesticides, you basically always have to do them from then on in that area. In a few years you've removed all the natural checks and balances

    Remember how everyone was talking about bug populations dropping? Guess what's dropping now? Their predator, birds. The cycle is already here

  • How did crocs come back?
  • And I walk 12-14 miles a day in Keens. My last assistant refused to wear anything but Crocs. Guess who was out every other week with foot problems? Not me.

  • How did crocs come back?
  • There's a reason hiking and activity shoes have ankle support. Ankles aren't glass, but you don't want to roll them in uneven surfaces

  • How did crocs come back?
  • People who work on their feet all day don't use crocs. You'd use TreadSafes that have actual support and fit, or you'd use an actual work shoe like Keen. Crocs absolutely will not hold up in a warehouse and will provide zero support or protection for your feet.

  • How did crocs come back?
  • The offer ZERO ankle support and often don't fit snuggly enough to support anything really. Unless you wear flip flops, don't wear these. Easy way to end up with constant foot, ankle, and knee problems.

  • Better :) Use "copy URL" not "copy fediverse URL" next time though and it will keep the person in their same instance and they won't have to login.
