It was always the same. They came in saying they’re looking for a small device. I showed them the small devices. They played around with them a bit, then slowly moved on to the bigger devices. No reason given, they just said they liked the smaller ones more and yet still bought the bigger ones.

Around 10 years ago I worked in an electronics store. You know, when actual small smartphones were still a thing (think S4 Mini and stuff like that).
Every day people came looking for a small phone. Always were very interested in the smaller devices. And yet most never bought one, they eventually decided for a larger one. For each new Samsung series during that time, I’d guess it was about ~50% of people interested in the Mini series, but only ~5% of our actual sales were the Minis.

It’s crazy and I learned a lot about people and their purchasing behavior back then. People often think they want something and never buy it and vice versa. It’s interesting, from a psychological view. In my current business it’s the same - people keep asking for stuff, and once you offer it, nobody cares about it.

That’s probably why Samsung kept on making these Minis until the S5 despite them not seeling. Customers kept just giving them feedback that didn’t reflect their behavior.

Huh. Thanks for answering. But this kind of breaks the intentions of a federated construct, doesn’t it?

In the worst case, I’d just block people from that instance, but not defederate it. That way my users could still interact with their community but their users couldn’t disrupt my instance.

Many smaller instances have defederated from lemmy.world, for example

Why?

Thank you! I don’t have apple devices but Sideberry comes very close to what I’m looking for, I think it will help me organize my tabs.

I have lots of different things I’m doing, not simultaneously but all of them regularly.
I have a hobby for which im using ~5-10 different sites regularly. And another hobby with ~3-5 sites.
Then I have a business where I keep all relevant tabs open, which are quite a few as well. Then all the general stuff (emails etc). And I probably still forgot something.

I’m still far away from the 100s, but I do keep around 20-30 tabs open all the time, and that doesn’t include any temporary tabs that I do close right after using it. I have them all sorted and separated using Firefox’ containers feature though.

Yes I could work with bookmarks too, but that has a few downsides. For example, for my business I am working with different Google drive folders for each project. It would be annoying to keep the bookmarks up to date or to navigate to the relevant folder each time when I can just leave the tab open and continue where I left off. Another example is one of my hobbies where I use the same 10 sites every time, so I’d have to open 10 sites when I do the hobby and then close them when I’m done, which seems redundant to me for just the benefit of not having tabs open I’m not using at the moment.
So ultimately, to me it’s way easier to have an overview of 30 open tabs than managing endless bookmarks that I need to keep up to date.

What I would prefer is a feature where I can have different environments and all tabs of that environment open and close automatically. So I say I want the environment “work” and my 10 work tabs open, then I work, then I switch the environment profile and all current work tabs’ updated URLs get saved and the other environment’s tabs open. If there’s anything like that I’d be thankful for a recommendation.
That’s the only way I see me not having dozens of tabs open all the time honestly.

I think most browsers do this. IIRC Chrome puts a “:D” there if you exceed 99

It usually relies on honesty.
If the vast majority of users is honest (which I would assume is the case in communities like this, because what big interest would men have in impersonating a woman just for answering to women’s topics) then you can have rules that you cannot really enforce. And you still benefit from them, I think there’s a lot less men posting with that rule than without it.

I admit that I just assumed that this rule would be in a place where you have to be able to see it before posting.

Now after your comment I’ve looked for it and the rule has only been announced in a pinned post. I agree that this is too hard to find; not everyone reads through every post in a community in case there are any rules for posting hidden in them (espefially when that post doesn’t even mention the words rules in its title). So I agree that this one’s on the community, thank you for clearing that up.

Inclusive doesn’t mean they let everybody in regardless

It does. I mean, if they not let everybody participate it’s by definition an exclusive community. In this case exclusive to women. Which is fine, but it is not universally inclusive (as the word “inclusive” without any further definition implies).

I get what they probably want to say - they include every woman, regardless of age/nationality, if it’s a MTF trans woman etc. But they could have expressed this better - i.e. “inclusive community for women” or something.

On the other hand, you’re supposed to read the rules when you post in a community the first time so this confusion could’ve been avoided by both sides.

Yeah, I assume if they took down Wikipedia itself then hundreds of copies would pop up all over the place, probably hosted elsewhere, and one of them would become the primary replacement over time.
Media might be lost to some extent, but I doubt there’s any way you can take the text/information/metadata off the internet at all, and that’s the most important aspect.

Falls ernstgemeinte Frage: Doch, natürlich gelten ausgeschilderte Limits auch für Radfahrer.

Es gibt Ausnahmen bei impliziten Limits (also nicht explizit zB mit “30” beschilderten Limits), zB gelten die innerörtlichen 50km/h ab Ortsschild nicht für Radfahrer. Andere implizite Limits wie Schrittgeschwindigkeit im verkehrsberuhigten Bereich wiederum aber schon.

Wouldn’t be surprised if the kid playing on the mat would be part of the print as well.

Der einzige Typ, der das behauptet, ist nur leider derjenige, der das dort hochgeladen hat.

Oh - ja gut :D das hab ich nicht gesehen. Mein Fehler.

“vnnd ihro” ist ja mal eindeutig Schwachsinn.

Deshalb schrieb ich, dass es so klingen soll, nicht, dass es tatsächlich mittelalterliche Schreibweise ist.
Keine Ahnung, mag auch tatsächlich KI-Kauderwelsch sein, sah für mich nur gewollt so aus (zumindest wenn man sich nicht damit befasst, wie damals wirklich geschrieben wurde).

Heute ist eh Sonntag, da wird das Carsten gelassen.

Die Schreibweise ergibt keinen Sinn

Also wenn Du so was wie “Peßt” und = statt - meinst, das dürfte Absicht sein, um wie eine Mittelalterliche Schreibweise zu klingen.

Edit: Und nur ein einzelner dort behauptet, es sei von der KI, und das auch ohne zu nennen woran er das erkennt.
Es ist nicht unwahrscheinlich, aber davon überzeugt bin ich jetzt auch nicht.

Was ist an der Schrift merkwürdig? Hab gerade darauf geachtet, aber soweit scheinen alle Buchstaben so auszusehen, wie sie aussehen sollen… würde auch vermuten, dass selbst wenn die Grafik von der KI ist, dass der Text manuell reingeschrieben wurde.

Ich finde es mega interessant, wie viele Wörter halt wirklich genau dazwischen sind und man anhand der Niederländischen Wörter merkt, wie es sich von A nach B entwickelt hat.

Zum Beispiel:
Haupt (i.S.v. Kopf) -> Hoofd -> Head
Zwölf > twaalf > twelve
Schatten > schaduw > shadow
Kalt > koud > cold
