    Greetings all, how are you people. I am still battling the bed bugs, now I reduced their population by at least 90 percent, this is my 5th week in fighting these bastards.

    DE and Bio-D works well in tandem, now I looking at buying steam cleaner as last resort.

        Yes. My bed is the most heavily fortified with diacotemecous earth, underneath looks like Siberia and sprayed daily. I also inspect the seams every 3-4 days to make sure no bugs hiding. I change the sheets every week too.

            The DE takes time though, in my case, the dried up dead bugs only show up after 10 days. Some people claimed 48 hours. I dunno how they can get that kind of results so soon.

      Had a flea problem once. Vacuumed then applied a liberal amount of dog parasite (Frontline) spray to and around the bed. These sprays target a wide range of bugs.

        Yep, honestly I had no idea what I was cooking for the past two weeks lmao and it’s just testing and fixing and testing and fixing 🤣

        At least now I have experience on writing new applications and configuring stuff on the go, because I don’t have that kind of opportunity at my job.

            Yeah it’s typescript. JavaScript just gives me anxiety nowadays.

            The repo is private now, but idm making it public. I’m not sure how though as the repo(which is owned by another dev) is under our organization, which is private.

              you could just git push it to a new repo, unless it is not git, or maybe your organization has something that prevents that.

                Hmm, let me bring it up in the discussion later. It’s not impossible to just open a new repo, but it’ll be kinda pointless imo to open another one

            The feature is actually already done on my side(so I can just add in new post scheduling jobs). I’m just letting it do a test run on dev to see if there’s anything messed up with the cron scheduling and db table locking.

              you’re accessing the lemmy db directly instead of using the lemmy api? (or on second reading, perhaps your code uses its own separate db to keep track of things?)

      How’s the audio quality? I’m still wired gang because I’m a rhythm gamer (and former fps gamer) but untangling wires all the time has driven my crazy lol. I’m eyeing a new pair of iems that I really like but they’re wired only as well.

        Actually I’ve never tried the WF1000XM4, this you gotta ask @Yong and amon from the Malaysian reddit. Apparently audio wise, it does lose out to WF1000XM4, but I really like it for its fit, I tried doing jumping jacks with this and it didn’t budge. This one is also meant for video calls.

    Watched Guardians of the galaxy vol 3 today.

    Idk . It sparks this marvel fire that died down ever since no way home to me. Pretty fkin good.

    Hooked from start to mid to halfway end. The fight at the end kinda zoned me out a bit. Standard fight I’d say. Just fan service fight. Nothing unique.

    Urgh, i’m beat. Works seems to be harsh lately, or i’m getting weak uhuk

    Anyway i found out the best way to browse “All” is to sort by “Top Day” and the interesting thing will float up. I’ve been using “New” and “Hot” and it doesn’t feels right, this one feels just like home.

      I use Bean a lot nowadays. Doesn’t seem to affect battery much & way, way prettier than any other Lemmy apps I’ve seen.

      It’s still in limited TestFlight, but the app is nearing feature complete so I’ll expect it to be available pretty soon.

      Yep, we have plan to do that in the future but if you inclined to create and maintain one, please do.

      Do keep in mind though, because the content for classified is easier to generate, we might see an influx of ads post all across the front page, which isn’t good for anyone, including the fediverse(we might get mail from other instance to take action or get defederated). So it’s better to have ground rule attached, and specify what sort of post is allowed.

      Better yet if you went through all the submission, or have a scheduled post that refresh every few days.

        From what 🦀 said, after thinking about it, I probably should wait until the software matures - either with improvements of front-page algorithm, or ability to minimize a community’s exposure to the whole fediverse. I can definitely see moderation being a huge commitment if at least those two things aren’t implemented yet. I’m not a big fan of creating threads due to limited searchability among other issues. I’ll sit on this one and deliberate further. 🤔💭

    I need examples for enshittified platforms i.e. websites that have gone to shit. We got TwitterX, Reddit, what else?

    And preferably with counter-examples e.g. Masto and Lemmy.

      Windows and iOS increasingly showing ads in the OS & pushing their own services probably count.

      Instagram has been horrible for a really long time, the Fedi alternative is Pixelfed.

      Tumblr’s been getting shittier for a long time. They lost alot of popularity when banning nudity back in 2018, and then they introduced “blaze”, where you pay for visibility… Some people started returning when Twitter and Reddit turned to shit, but the platform had already deteriorated so much, the only ones who still chose it over the Fediverse are people whose think it’s too complicated to use.

        I wouldn’t say it’s going shittier, my words on the fediverse community to the contrary. Tumblr staff do listen to feedback, for example finally reversing the default tab to Following (chronological feed) from For You (algorithm), they brought back reblog graph, they removed by default long post and reblog trail (the combination of which is called the reblog chain) but gave toggles to turn them back on. I know whole groups of people who were on the earliest LiveJournal who are still active on Tumblr today - they did hit the right spot there. (Those group are resigned to the porn ban, not angry, because they are the kind of people who track things and figured out banning porn and queer contents were about advertising back in early 2000’s, tumblr’s hands were tied and if people took them seriously back then we might not have advertising-related enshittification today. Those people brought AO3 into being, they are perfectly capable of coding a tumblr clone if they so wish. or move en masse like they did LJ to Dreamwidth, then Tumblr).

        The dashboard redesign took everyone by surprise, but xkit the third fixed it in about a week, and if they were really serious about making everyone use the layout they want xkit wouldn’t have worked for about as long as tumblr has existed. xkit developers have come and gone from working on the extension. Tumblr’s paid features are fun, extremely regiftable and targeted advertisement doesn’t use tumblr data.

        I wouldn’t say they are doing things perfectly, but they are the only long-form chronological tagged blogging platform left aside from making your own site.

        Fediverse isn’t complicated to use - fediverse offerings are whole different things together. Tumblr users live and die by the tags and chained reblogs. Mastodon has tagging (hashtags) but it is a microblogging system and posts cannot be chained organically (1/12…12/12 style isn’t) while Lemmy does not even have a tagging system and based on the people who are actively developing it, will never have. You cannot interact the way tumblr users interact on either.

        And Blaze…has no influence on popularity. Pay x dollar to put this post on y number of random dashboard. One single transaction. No one is going to follow you if you blaze crap.
