Well, you can't just blindly throw cigarette butts in the garbage. You'll start fires. Maybe not if you're paying attention, but if you're smoking outside 5x a day you're bound to slip up eventually. You can only really put them in those specialized cigarette things, which there aren't that many of

In the books, I don't believe they kill anyone - or can. They basically just scare off the corsairs so the rest of gondors army can join the main battle. So ops point is kinda moot

E: I guess it's a little ambiguous

Pale swords were drawn; but I know not whether their blades would still bite, for the Dead needed no longer any weapon but fear."

Infinity to one, and lemmy is taking that shit way too seriously

Screaming seems like an overreaction

This is so over the top that it loops back around and I love it now actually

I'm more concerned about the acoustic issues to be honest.

And really just the complete unsexiness of this space on every level

The question is not really whether the software will be "better." In most cases, you only compile from source if you have a specific situation where you need, or think you might benefit from, some specific non-default build option. Or if you don't trust the provider of pre built releases for whatever reason.

It's basically impossible to overfeed an infant. Like you say, they mostly know when to stop, and they'll just spit up whatever they can't handle.

It's a community for making fun of people who completely missed the joke. They are telling you that you are being dumb for not understanding that it's a joke.

 

First of all, thank you so much for all your work! This is definitely a way better experience than the web client. And thanks for adding community blocking, so now I don't have to go back for that feature.

I like to keep pretty huge categories of communities out of my feed entirely. But, I also want to be aware of what other communities of interest might be out there, especially now while the Lemmy landscape is evolving so quickly. So the strategy of only ever browsing subs and foregoing All entirely doesn't really work.

But, as I've seen other people highlighting in other posts, federation also means that the number of redundant communities across instances is huge. I don't just have to block all the political communities, I have to block them everywhere we're federated with. My block-list is already gigantic and I don't anticipate the need to block communities going away soon.

It'd be a much smoother experience if Block Community was an option directly in the three-dot menu of an individual post, instead of having to leave my feed, go through another menu, and go back every time.
