It’s my main browser for a while now and I really like the vertical tabs and tab unloading which saves a lot of ram compared to regular firefox. Otherwise I think the split modes and the peeking feature are nice but I don’t use them that much.

I thought you were joking by saying in her late twenties. She looks like late fourties.

Lemmy is still very niche so it’s mainly populated by a specific type of people. That is normal and the same for every platform that starts small and grows slowly (reddit, instagram,…). If you want to see different content you can create your own communities or if they are not allowed even your own instance. But Lemmy still has to grow a lot to attract “normal people”. They are still on reddit at the moment.

By the way which censorship are you referring to that could not be resolved by moving to another instance?

How would key signing prevent deep fakes?

Lemmy.world is not frowned upon. There are some people who are very vocal about not liking it but if you don’t have any problems you don’t need to change. There is also nothing stopping you from having accounts on diferent instances so try some of them out and stay where you like it.

The point of the fediverse is to give people the option to create communities by themselves and not be subject to the ruling of one central allmighty entity. If someone does not like one community they have the chance to create their own with their own rules. This means people can decide for themselves what content they want in their community. However people coming from traditional social media seem to mistake this kind of freedom with not needing to follow any rules but that’s not how it works.

FOSS gives people the option to take the original code and create their own version of it in case they don’t like what the original maintainers are doing. With closed source you would be stuck and would have to look for something new.

It wasn’t a culture shock but it made something obvious that sometimes gets forgotten. The “Open” just means that one can look at the source code and copy it to make a new version. There is no obligation of the original creators to support things outside of what they want/can do.

That’s what I do too. Automatic updates for everything and if I don’t like the way something develops I look for alternatives. Those changes will most likely not be reverted anyway and I will certainly not keep using an older version of some software forever.

Especially since in this case it was not even the person that was misgendered that called it out. Maybe the original person doesn’t even care.

I got it work too but wouldn’t call it easy. My process involves going to about:config to enable some variable that has a super long name. Then find out where the profiles are saved and remember not to use the “cached” directory version which I always end up on first. Then selecting one of the cryptic profile names and creating some specific directory structure and copying or linking (but no soft linking) my config there.

A simple checkbox in the settings would be nice, or another browser extension. Or is there an easier process?

If only it was easier to remove the default tabs from firefox so you don’t have duplicate tabs. I recently had problems getting the userCSS to do its thing, trying different directories. In the end the problem however was that I tried to link it with a symbolic link which for some reason doesn’t work.

In the article it does not say that the bible has to be portrayed positively so I guess you could look for examples of how Christians misuse what is written to justify horrible actions. There are probably also enough examples of how current (repulican) politicians are actively acting in anti christian ways while claiming to be following god.

I guess you would comply with that if you were to compare the bible to other religious scriptures everytime it is talked about and show how they influenced society. I don’t see why this should be not allowed.

Edit: This was meant in a malicious compliance kind of way. In no way I am saying that this is a great law.

Soem years ago I played a few hundred hours of Terraria and was always surprised how much enjoyment you could get out of the ~ 30 MB that it was when installed. Don’t know about it today though since it has received quite a few updates since then.

We were on holiday at a camp ground when I was child. I had my Nintendo DS with me and I think during this vacation I even bought a carrying case and some games for it with my own money. During the day we would ride bycicles to other places so I left it in the tent buried under some stuff. One day when we came back i could not find it. At first I thought it could be stolen or my dad tried to hide it from me, because I played with it quite a lot which he wasn’ta fan of. So I tried to look through his stuff without him noticing to find it. But i didn’t find it and since i am quite reserved i didnt want to bring it up that it was missing.

In the end I think someone at that camp ground must have seen me use it and then waited for us to leave to steal it, since nothing else was stolen.

After that every time someone asked me why I wasn’t playing as much as before I told them that I didn’t feel like it. And I’m not sure whether they figured it out to this day.

I think that is a very negative view on Germany and Europe that comes mainly from reading too many news. The media always report when something goes wrong, but rarely if something is working right.

One example: passenger aircraft. Boeing is struggling and China does not seem to be able to make the strong impact that was theorised. Europe is the global powerhouse in that regime. And especially Germany is really strong in a lot of areas that dont make the news regularly.

Also look at the transition to renewable energy in the last decade alone. We have a lot of ideas for the future, just not decided what we should do on a big scale.

Tech is just a market where the circumstances in the US and China with their huge domestic markets produce the biggest companies. Europe will probably always lack behind in that.

Europe is in a transition period right now into the 21st century. But both China and the US also have internal problems that will hold them back in the future.

Evince (the standard GNOME pdf reader) has night mode that you can toggle with “Ctrl + i” by default.

Mont-Saint-Michel definitely was a special place. Already driving up to it and seeing it from a distance was surreal and then walking through this tightly packed place seemingly in the middle of the sea is unlike anything else.

With that username I totally believe you wish for nothing more.
