DING DONG
  • I just woke up and this confused me

  • This sign looks like it’s meant to be 3D
  • Perhaps if your eyes are on the forehead and mouth. It's more like a shadow effect.

  • Shake it baby
  • The Indian guy one is brilliant.

  • Writing an article on the Fediverse and Lemmy in particular. What are your thoughts?
  • leaving Mastodon out to try

    While it's clear what's meant from the context, I've never heard this idiom. Do you mean "hanging Mastodon out to dry"?

    Drop in the bucket sounds weird to me too, but a quick check shows that it's the US version of drop in the ocean.

  • There are no bugs in Lemmy. Only happy accidents.
  • This is some weird throwback. Back when Lemmy was using web sockets (before Reddit blocked third-party apps) there was a bug where a page would update with different content, but replies would go to the original post (iirc), but it was fixed ages ago.

  • I wonder if they remember me
  • It took me a bit to recognise that as describing "effete". I don't think you found the best definition - the main way it's used today is affected, overrefined, and effeminate.

  • Is Lebanon part of Israel’s promised territory?
  • Where exactly did Hashem define the boundaries, and are we obligated to conquer those areas?

    Yikes.

  • Learn to play piano like a pro in 30 days!
  • I love that track, thanks for sharing this analysis.

  • How do I make my own internet?
  • This could have been a really interesting question if OP hadn't been so vague. As is, there's too many interpretations to answer. Do they mean the physical connections? The protocols and services like IP, DNS and BGP? The world wide web, with its sites, links and search engines?

    Does OP consider the Dark Web its own internet? Or a large corporate network its own internet? What about self-hosting a huge number of services in your own home?

  • Evolutionarily disadvantaged rule đź’©đź›»
  • So is this a human doing a great Attenborough impression, AI doing it, or the man himself*?

    * wildcard option

  • Obey your thirst.
  • I honestly don't know if he meant that as a joke or an advert.

  • Some rows of videos have different padding
  • Their app and website are both atrocious. I've got a rant somewhere on Lemmy about once time it made me scream with impotent rage over the UX experience, and I'm someone comfortable with editing the DOM/scripting to fix the worst of it.

  • Chaos!
  • I'd assumed they believe in reincarnation (or the boring typo explanation), but I like your reason better.

  • Talking about sexuality

    Bjork Says Americans Can't Be "Completely Surprised" By 9/11
  • Well, said at least - this story's almost a decade old.

  • Andre
  • You've had a good definition, but Wikipedia has (a lot) more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe

  • He failed the test...
  • That's a hilarious solution.

  • w h a t t h e h e c k
  • I'm surprised that this is a genuine answer, I was expecting something else with a product name like that.

  • Earbuds
  • Wired headphones are great, and my mouse has a cable too. I might be a dinosaur.

  • Can't follow my own Pixelfed account on Mastodon
  • I can see it from the three medium/small instances I just tried.

    Also, is typigraphy a typo (typi?) or its own thing?

  • I'm Sorry Did I Break Your Concentration?

    In the age of AI-spam, I now treat typos in webpages as a good sign

    I used to think typos meant that the author (and/or editor) hadn't checked what they wrote, so the article was likely poor quality and less trustworthy. Now I'm reassured that it's a human behind it and not a glorified word-prediction algorithm.

    How To Backup Your Data From Reddit

    TL;DR: Request it at https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request

    It's only about the CSV files you get, it doesn't cover e.g. the images you've uploaded.

    PlayStation Plus Games - what to play?

    I've had a subscription to PS Plus for years now but rarely look at the games (I need to get an external drive or be less hesitant to delete stuff).

    What hidden gems are there in the backlog? I have a PS4 by the way, but I think the PS5 is too new to have hidden gems.
