Fallout TV Show Could Now Last Five Seasons After ‘Immensely Surprising’ Popularity, Say Creators
  • Almost no show needs to go past 3 seasons. It's almost always a bad idea.

    This is like when the show runner for The Handmaid's Tale said he'd love for it to be 10 seasons long when it stopped being good after one.

  • Haier, the air conditioner maker, takes down open source third-party Home Assistant integration
  • How long until they start banning you from using thermostats made by other companies

  • HA compatible sensors for a terrarium?

    I'm in the process of building a custom terrarium that will eventually house a leopard gecko. I'm looking for some small, inexpensive devices to monitor temperature and humidity in the tank via Home Assistant so I can set up some alerts. Any recommendations?

    Looking for a Backpack
  • I ended up getting a Lat64 Swift because I didn't find this on the market and this was the smallest I could reasonably find, I just pack the empty space with towels and stuff to keep them from moving around.

    If I wanted to go slim but still a backpack, I have a little Konami Sports Club backpack that barely fits discs snuggly, so you may just see what backpacks you can find that open with a top flap and just try fitting a disc in it to see if it works. I'd love to find an actual disc golf backpack the size of my Konami bag. Photo of the bag.

  • Pro-authoritarian and pro-CCP Lemmy instance (DNI)
  • I would suggest that the instance name be required in the thread titles though

  • Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Barbie as a character is less popular with American kids than Mario in 2023. Hasn't Barbie been struggling?

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Good, Barbie was a movie where things actually happened and characters actually did things.

  • Why the ‘Barbie’ Magic Won’t Be Easy to Recapture
  • Right after getting home from this movie I went "man, this is going to be like Starship Troopers where it gets a ton of sequels that don't understand what this movie was, huh?"

  • A "Fancy" Rabbit House
  • I wish I could make a lot of cute pet boxes like this but I have gerbils so anything that goes in the cage is gonna get wrecked. Hard to justify making them cute lol.

  • 'King Of The Hill' Dale Voice Actor Johnny Hardwick Dead At 64
  • I already strongly felt that they shouldn't reboot King of the Hill for a lot of reasons, but I especially can't imagine them going through with it now.

  • I have only ever gotten suicide reports when I've defended trans people on reddit, meanwhile I get them almost every single time I've done that. It's 100% transphobes hoping to make trans people think about suicide. I'm not trans or suicidal, so they're wasting their time with me, but that's the motivation behind it, hoping they might get someone in a dark place.

    So I have to say I'm pretty on board with defederating from an instance that is full of posts that very much also want trans people eradicated.

  • So you think grandmas and children and people with mental illness shouldn't be allowed here, but people who call LGBT people slurs and make jokes about hanging them should be?

    That's...really not at all how SDF operates.

  • Movies that would make a good TV series?
  • I guess I'm starting with a book technically but Battle Royale would have made a better TV series than movie, the movie doesn't have time to delve into that many characters and the little side characters are what made the book so good.

  • Is the SDF instance not primarily SDF users? Why would random people need to join because they saw it from another instance?

    There's a lot of general purpose instances out there that aren't full of pages of slurs, I'm pretty skeptical that people on the instance full of slurs don't want to see those but if they don't there's other places they can find. Or they can find a new instance the same way any new user does, it's weird to argue you need an unblocked account to find out where other people are talking, new users figure this out every day without leaving users here wide open to trolls who are already spewing garbage in this very thread.

  • please defederate from exploding-heads.com and rammy.site
  • They can see it logged out, and presumably would have to already know SDF exists to get registered anyway.

  • please defederate from exploding-heads.com and rammy.site
  • Then...great. If the posters who aren't horrible are leaving then what's the problem defederating the trolls left over?

  • please defederate from exploding-heads.com and rammy.site
  • Yeah, and defederating them makes it to where they can't get the attention they want anymore.

  • please defederate from exploding-heads.com and rammy.site
  • I have to wonder if the people staunchly against defederation at any cost ever dealt with redditors from hate subs following them around reddit from sub to sub everywhere they posted to keep screaming at them about trans women not being women, while also repeatedly reporting them to Reddits suicide bot to try to make them think about suicide. It's not exactly the nicest online experience and I had it more than once in my time on reddit.

    To me the benefit of federation includes defederation. If it was easy to just say "get rid of all the users from r/hatesub" on reddit it would have been a lot nicer. I don't know why people are clamoring to keep hateful shit around. Go join the hateful shit instance if you want to read it so bad but I'd rather the users of an instance like that not be able to see me at all since queer people like me are who they hate so bad, and I can't exactly block all of them.
