Once they get so crusty they can stand on their own. That’s about 8 hours in shoes, or a week next to the bed.

It’s under Settings -> Blocks -> then down at the bottom is the block instances option.

You can on instances running .19 or newer. Settings -> Blocks -> then at the bottom is an option for blocking instances.

Seconding ThinkPad. Excellent linux support as well.

I’ve always felt being on the fediverse was antithetical to Beehaw’s mission. It wants to bee a kind, safe place for disenfranchised users, but it feels like less of a tight knit community when it is federated.

The best example I can think of is like a high-school club/group. Being on the fediverse is like your group claiming a table in a crowded lunch room. Yes you’ve got your group together where you can talk amongst yourselves, but everything you say can be heard by everyone else in the room and likewise their conversations are going to butt in whether you like it or not. An unfederated or semi-private forum is more like getting an unused classroom for your group to meet in. It’s still open for anyone to join as long as they don’t create trouble, but having your own room makes the conversation feel more personal/intimate and people are more likely to open up about personal stuff they wouldn’t want to yell out in the lunch room.

Probably a poor analogy, and I may be misunderstanding their goal, but that’s my 2 cents.

Exactly. I don’t need the most users. The internet was better back when it wasn’t everybody.

Clutch - Power Player has been stuck in my head since last night for reasons unbeknownst to me. Now it can be in yours.

I just uncheck “Show bot accounts” Gets rid of most.

Consent is one of the harder things to teach cats.

I leash/harness train mine. It’s nice to be able to mostly walk them around outside like dogs. Also I train them to ride on my shoulders for transportation. That way when they get too lazy to walk back to the house or I need to carry them around for any other reason I can just plop them on my shoulders and they will ride there, keeping my hands free. My neighbors probably think I’m crazy.

u/VegaLyrae’s suggestions are all excellent.

bout 10 years ago, the norm was to, from time to time, drain lithium batteries to minimum and so do a full cycle, this is something my father told me but I actually don’t know the reasoning.

Early rechargeable batteries such as nickel-cadmium and nickel-metal-hydride would develop “memory”. For example if you made a habit of always recharging the batteries once they hit 50%, the battery would think “I guess they don’t need the rest of the capacity, I’ll throw it in the trash” and you ended up with a battery with half it’s original capacity. So it became good practice to occasionally discharge them completely before recharging. Sort of a ‘use it or lose it’ scenario. Now lithium batteries do not have this issue but it took people a long time to break the habit.

I think “Who is still using them?” is a better question.

I don’t think most people mind curated reposts at all. No one wants to see every reddit post copied over en masse. Well, I guess a some do, but they suck, as is covered in the post title.

Hopefully lemmy will roll out blocking by instance and that will solve a lot of people’s issues calling for defederation.

I was gifted a tiny refillable keychain lighter. I didn’t think I needed it at first but it’s turned out invaluable to always have some fire handy. I don’t smoke so I don’t normally have a lighter with me otherwise.
