I've played off and on for years and don't think I've ever made it past level 20. I have no idea why I'm so terrible

Isn't it way more deadly than covid? Maybe that'll be reason enough to scare idiots into compliance?

I have a friend that claims climate change is not man made. He always talks about volcanos and ice ages. Does anyone know what evidence I can actually hand him to show him man's contribution is the leading cause?

Disney bets on sequels and password crackdown for profit growth in c/news
[–] gac11 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I know I'm just an anecdote but Netflix had some ridiculous deal where I paid $75 for a year of Starz and I got Netflix for free. So they got to pretend like they didn't lose me when in reality I was imminently going to quit due to the password crackdown.

I bought her a new Amazon Kindle thingy because that's what she likes. I also have plans to make a peanut butter pie for family dinner that day, but that's equally a present to myself.

Am I cheating at Wordle? (self.wordle)

So whenever I play Wordle, I start with 3 words that cover a huge amount of letters in the alphabet. I use SPARE, LIGHT, MOUND every time unless I can easily guess the answer earlier.

It feels like I'm cheating, so I was wondering what others think.

Help making this ramp nonslip for winter (lemmy.world)

Does anyone know the best way to make this ramp nonslip? We get a fair amount of ice and snow and there are a couple elderly folks using the ramp.

We tried a basic nonslip rubber mat, but the grooves just hold ice and snow so don't really help.

Our current ideas are maybe adding rubber stair treads every board or two, or maybe tacking little strips of wood to every board.

Swiping back operation when following web links (self.lemmyconnect)

I often follow a web link and then click on another link on the web page. When I swipe back, I expect to go back to the original web page, but it goes all the way back to Lemmy page where I started.

I am using Google Pixel 6, this is only way to go back, so not sure if this is unique to Pixels.
