We need the game publishers to face more consequences for neglecting a significant segment of the market in c/linuxmemes

There's that "I never vote because politicians do not care about the issues of people like me anyway" attitude again.

(Hint: They don't care because your kind won't vote anyway.)

I've been using a shiftphone for the last ~5 years. I wonder where they would land on the ranking. They should als do fairly well.

Didn't notch go full on alt-right some years ago, to the point where MS had to officially distance themselves from him?

[Combat] Russian tank driver miscalculates the depth of a crater. in c/[email protected]

In the driver's defense, his tank just took at least one rocket impact. I could imagine having a case of the nerves after that…

A≠A but A=B in c/memes

[–] waigl 23 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It should be 8 Hz, but according to the question text, that would mean answer "A", while according to the labels next to the answer options, it would be "B", because they're inconsistent.

A≠A but A=B in c/memes

Is that really a meme? Looks more like some random software QA failure. Is there a community for software gore or something?

Andrew Neil gets dodgy box for Christmas ☠️🎄🦜 in c/[email protected]

[–] waigl 3 points 3 weeks ago

On the one hand, I wasn't trying to defend those warnings, just trying to offer some perspective.

On the other, I don't just think, I know for a fact that a hell of a lot of adults out there are actively ignoring the dangers of alcohols.

Now please excuse me while I crack open a beer here.

Shit, it even works on Plasma…

While I half agree that having these warnings there for a glass of wine is annoying, the context here is that people will genuinely believe alcohol consumption to be just a harmless passtime, but nobody will think this about getting body parts cut off.

Photon UI does not work in Firefox 122 on Linux (lemmy.world)

submitted 11 months ago by waigl to c/support

10 comments fedilink

The photon UI under photon.lemmy.world does not work for me in Firefox 122 under Linux, showing nothing but blank page when I open it. It works in Chromium and in Firefox on Android.

When I open the developer console, I get the following error message:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: e.moderation is undefined

Is there any community specifically for finding communities (self.lemmyworld)

submitted 2 years ago by waigl to c/lemmyworld

Is there any lemmy community for finding and discussing other communities, in the sense of "Hey, I am interested in this and that topic, which community should I join?"

How are lemmy and kbin related? (self.lemmy)

I see kbin.social mentioned here and there where lemmy is discussed. How are those two related? Are they linked up, or are those completely separate communities?

How does i2p compare to tor? (self.i2p)

It seems like what i2p is doing largely overlaps with what tor does. How do the two compare, and why would you use one over the other?

Can we get any numbers about new users? (self.meta)

submitted 2 years ago by waigl to c/[email protected]

5 comments fedilink

I see plenty of posts talking about a huge influx of new users to lemmy.ml lately. Can we get some numbers about that? How many new users per day are we talking? How does that translate to number of requests per second (or minute) on the frontend?

What kind of hardware is lemmy.ml running on? Is it just a single server? Can lemmy instances be run on a loadbalanced cluster?

I'm really interested to see how efficient and resilient the lemmy software really is, at the moment I am getting the impression that it is buckling under the load of, honestly, not even that many users...

Comment posts to some other instances don't work (self.lemmy_support)

submitted 2 years ago by waigl to c/[email protected]

7 comments fedilink

In some cases when I post a comment to a topic on a different instance, the comment will seemingly just disappear into thin air. Posting and commenting to the Lemmy Support community seems to work mostly fine, even though it is on lemmy.ml while my account is on lemmy.world. Any comments I tried to make on feddit.de just plain disappeared, though, no trace of them anywhere, not in my profile, not in the discussion thread, not even on the actual feddit.de instance.

Any idea what's going wrong here?
