dogmuffins, in Why does Lemmy feel so fresh compared to Reddit?

I agree. If lemmy continues to grow, inevitably some servers will be shit, but I imagine there will be other non-federated or less-federated instances. beehaw has already started down that path.

Trolls are generally looking for maximum carnage, so I imagine there’s less incentive / reward posting somewhere like lemmy.

As an experienced shitposter, the shittiness of the posting often correlates directly with the inability of moderators to clean it up.

Everybody is a bot except for you.

Twaffle, in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

This thread is going to haunt me. One day, years from now while lying in bed and slowly drifting off to sleep, I'll suddenly sit bolt upright and exclaim, "Why couldn't that dude poop!?"

macrocephalic,

And what was on that hard drive sewn into the lining of the laptop bag?

eighty, in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

I really wish I knew what I did in the past to achieve this. Depression and poor eating habits?

autumn, in Deleted

Does the machine know that box is not an option? Thinking that A, A+B, and B are all valid options is something I could see an AI doing.

There also isn't much penalty for taking A+B? You'll always get at least $1M. And if you took only B, the max you could get is $1M.

Edit: I can't read lol. I'd still take both, the result is

Predicted A+B: $1M

Predicted B only: $1001M

If you only take box B, the result is

Predicted A+B: $0

Predicted B only: $1000M

IsThisLemmyOpen,

I think the machine predicts 2 results, either

Box A is taken = True

OR

Box A is taken = False

Something like:

If (Box A Taken = True)
{place ($0) in Box B}
else
{place ($1,000,000,000) in Box B}

Machine doesnt care if you also take Box B, it only cares if Box A is one of the boxes taken. If you take no boxes, Box B would still have a billion dollars, although thats kinda dumb choice from a gameshow host's perspective.

Don't have kids

freeman,

I would argue the opposite. Kids are amazing. They see things clearer and arent jaded. They give you purpose. There are definately hard parts, and sometimes you dont get a break, but its not something I would trade for the world. They are little reflections of you, that you can improve on and watching someone with the wonder of awe of seeing and learning all these little things for the first time is pretty damn cool. Watching it "click" when they learn to do things like build stuff, ride a bike, swim, read etc etc is pretty awesome.

Wander, in Aside from blocking instances, what other controls do admins have to keep unwanted content off their instances?
@Wander@yiffit.net avatar

You can also remove specific remote communities, which bans them from your site instead of the entire remote instance. Make sure to use remove, not purge.

The community will not appear in the list nor be searchable.

DeltaTangoLima,
@DeltaTangoLima@reddrefuge.com avatar

Ah - cool. I wondered at the difference there. So removing them bans that community, whereas purge just erases them from local cache/storage?

Wander,
@Wander@yiffit.net avatar

Purge deletes everything, including the fact that you've deleted them and they become searchable again. It's like a complete reset. Even the act of removing them is reset

You can purge, and then bring it up again and then remove if you want to delete any cached media or posts.

DeltaTangoLima,
@DeltaTangoLima@reddrefuge.com avatar

Gotcha - thanks for that. This is going to be a potential pitfall for the uninitiated. I can see inexperienced admins easily allowing others to store all manner of bad shit on their servers without realising.

Wander,
@Wander@yiffit.net avatar

Yes. That said, media uploaded by remote users is actually stored on the remote instance, not yours.

DeltaTangoLima,
@DeltaTangoLima@reddrefuge.com avatar

Ah, even better. Thanks.

phase_change,

But aren’t thumbnails local?

Wander,
@Wander@yiffit.net avatar

I just checked and even thumbnails are remote.

@mizu6079@lemmy.world avatar

I've replied to quite a few people and I'm going to bed now.

I'll edit the posts with updates when my poopless journey ends. Either when the three-day poopless period is over (28th June) or when the whole thing is over (30 June/1 July).

Wish me luck.

(but seriously good luck and please don't hurt/injure yourself my friend. Godspeed!)

Feo,

Godspeed op. May your cheeks remain pristine.

Tagger,

Do we have remind me set up yet?

heartlessevil,

This is the first post on lemmy I've bookmarked, congrats

Vex_Detrause,

Please don't overthink it. You might get more urge to go when your trying not to poop. You got this! Please update us.

There is a balance of money and time there are diminishing returns on money. Time is the one thing you cant get back. So if you are given of a choice of a solid paying job with solid PTO or a amazing paying job with little PTO or the expectations of 50-60+ hours weeks, that solid paying job is gonna be worth it every time.

Edc3, in How do I stop seeing post from 2 or 3 days ago?

You can also go to your profile settings and turn off "show read posts"

@Kurt@lemmy.one avatar

I haven't seen any comments suggesting a plug, so I guess it'll be me. Try using a butt plug.

100beep, in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

To answer the actual question, cheese and meat.

Bageler,

Unless lactose intolerance is a factor. Then just meat. A lot of jerky.

Are you, by any chance in a submarine?

@MissJinx@lemmy.world avatar

Disasters come in threes. One sub down, better wait until the next 2 explode too

badgerific,

There's no advice that's going to be effective in stopping poop in those circumstances...

silent_clash, in What are some good forums that you enjoy?

This isn't niche at all, but gbatemp is fantastic. Lots of emulation, modding, romhacking, general gaming discission, etc.
