From what I understand, yes, moderation is not federated. That’s good in that instances can enforce their own mod standards, but it also means spam/harmful content has to be removed by each server individually.

No idea if there’s an appeal process but you could ask on the lemmy.world support community.

well fuck, I thought it was the year of the Linux desktop.

Great, do whatever you want. Just shut the fuck up about it, nobody cares.

Then next paragraph…

I switched from Linux to macOS for a number of years and it was fucking awesome. Then my Macbook Pro became defective and I bought a PC and …

Well, okay. Great, why not write a whole article about your personal taste in software.

What do I use? Arch Linux.

Right. With no written documentation or known modern descendants of the culture, it’s all speculation. I don’t know why they’d leap to conclude it was intentional religious sacrifice vs. accidents or amputations following injury.

Happens all the time with my ex who I still talk to. She’ll go on these annoying rants about someone she’s dealing with and it’s obvious to me that she’s in the wrong, but won’t listen to anything I say about it. She fixates on these pointless details that have nothing to do with her true motivations. Super annoying when she’s in one of those moods.

para-government tech companies are working as hard on that as possible, it will be soon. It doesn’t even matter if it really works, they’ll just say it does.

My family went to Tijuana when I was about 5. My brother and I saw an unconscious/dead person being dragged into an alley and were ‘wtf?’. My parents just said uh, nevermind about that.

I remember after 9/11 I took a flight out of Minneapolis and there were security/police/whatever with automatic rifles. Pretty surprising as I’d never seen anything like that in the US.

The troll thing was going on a few weeks ago but I haven’t seen any activity like that recently. I sometimes use that instance directly as well as a kbin and a couple others. I browse New generally and haven’t seen any illicit content either.

I mean… I wear constructing/shooting range earmuffs sometimes and I found that helps to concentrate, and also wearing them when sleeping produces a noticeably deeper rest. Great for noisy hotels. Not so sure about this system, though, unless maybe I had to nap on the street in a warzone or something.

zeppo,
@zeppo@lemmy.world avatar

Sometimes I’d wear earbuds underneath the earmuffs. Other times I’d just prefer as close to silence as possible.

I tried noise canceling headphones and couldn’t tell if they really helped. This was a while ago, like 2009, but I bought some decently high end Sony and I felt like they made my ears ring later on. It seemed better to wear earmuffs vs. some special high tech method. Plus one thing I was mitigating was the meows of a huge cat I had who meowed REALLY loudly, and that’s the sort of thing noise canceling doesn’t reduce.

zeppo,
@zeppo@lemmy.world avatar

I experienced discomfort, like mild pain too. I thought maybe it was because the addition of extra sound to cancel out sound increased the total volume in a way that was inaudible, but I don’t really know the physics behind how the cancellation works. This article says it is an effect caused by pressure similar to how your ears pop at different altitudes.

The ones I remember that would be 30-40 years old are imperial on one side and metric on the other. Maybe that changed, idk.

I had a cat with diabetes and they never even gave me a tester… just said 1 unit of Lantus a day.

Between 50 and 120? Interesting. For a human the range is 70-140. Most people with T1 try to stay around the middle as to avoid going low.

zeppo, (edited )
@zeppo@lemmy.world avatar

I see, it seems to be “porcine insulin zinc suspension”, which I think used to be used in humans but isn’t any longer. I thought perhaps it might be Levemir or NPH. Lantus is definitely pretty good… not just for cats, I have T1 so I’ve tried various insulins. It’s quite stable over 24 hours.

why doesn't GNOME have a mascot??

KDE not only has 1 mascot, they have over 6 or more mascots!! Yet GNOME only has the foot, that’s interesting, they need a mascot. And made by Tyson Tan or someone with a similar art style, it would be amazing!!! But anyway GNOME is the best desktop environment and it’s better if it’s vanilla with some small...

That’s interesting. What that indicates to me is that they feel it’s not advantageous marketing-wise to have one in other regions.

How can I block posts from all bot accounts of specific instance? (alien.top)

I do not want to block all bots. I only want to block bots from specific instance. More specifically, the @alien.top instance is using most, if not all, bot accounts with random usernames. It uses that instance to post in communities of other instances. I thought about blocking other instances. But the main issue lies with...

I read more about the project and it seems interesting. I suppose 2 way communication to sync accounts between reddit and lemmy would be interesting… would the reddit TOS allow that? Or would the reddit admins tolerate it for long? I suppose you’ve looked into it.

The problem is the current state is confusing… if you look at the communities posted in by the bots, it is a huge flood of posts, like sometimes 20 posts in 15 minutes. I guess that would be different if Lemmy was more active, but it isn’t yet. Also, it’s confusing - one has to visit alien.top and github to have any idea what’s going on, and if the account holders aren’t receiving the posts, it’s sort of wasting people’s effort on lemmy and not creating true engagement. Perhaps a disclaimer like ‘this post mirrored by Fediverser’ would help.

zeppo,
@zeppo@lemmy.world avatar

Great, I think as my and other people’s experience illustrates it has been a bit confusing so far, being unexplained. The byline will help a lot, I think.

Sure, it’s useful as it is as long as people check into their Lemmy accounts. I suppose I would if I signed up and was aware there might be replies waiting for me on Lemmy in addition to Reddit.

zeppo,
@zeppo@lemmy.world avatar

That’s cool, I think that will help explain it. I didn’t realize the accounts for people on reddit were being created on lemmy automatically though. Do the reddit users even know it’s happening?
