Ha! I forgot about this comment. I think it’s funny that I got downvoted for claiming I somehow voted for both a Georgia and Colorado candidate.

I don’t get it. The above commenter said episode 3, as well, and I don’t see an edit.

It’s spelled coppp-out

I had the same thought. I’ll have to try the website while logged in to see what it does.

Actually, no. The API is happily returning a post from a blocked community when I specifically ask for it. It should also return comments when I specifically ask for them. Or not return either. It shouldn’t behave two different ways.

The Lemmy code is so weird sometimes.

I recently blocked asklemmy because I get annoyed by all the stupid hypothetical questions. If I click this link, I can see the post, but I can’t see any of the comments.

I don’t want that community in my “all” feed, but if I click on an unknown link and can see the post, why can’t I also see the comments? Seems like a strange disconnect.

Thing is, even though that’s the one thing that would work*, they don’t believe that.

* Except you’d start seeing relativistic effects in short order.

“Parking Meter at the Edge of the World”

That was a Douglas Adams book.

If I’ve learned anything from plastic signs on the side of the road, it’s “Trump low prices. Kamala high prices.”

I voted for them both because they’re funny.

I thought people on Lemmy supported free software.

You can’t just make a simple list on any site that uses markdown. It removes line breaks. Why? So some nerd can post an 80 character formatted email from a listserve and have it look normal in markdown. It’s archaic and stupid.

At any rate, this “feature” makes your list look like a giant paragraph:

Castlevania Castlevania II Simon’s Quest Castlevania III Dracula’s Curse Super Castlevania IV Castlevania The Adventure Castlevania II Belmont’s Revenge Castlevania Bloodlines Kid Dracula

You have to end each line with two spaces to force markdown to preserve the line breaks. Or you have to start each line with an asterisk and a space to make a bulleted list.

I’m going to fix it for you so other people can read it more easily, and also fix some of your typos:

Castlevania Castlevania
Ill Simon
Quest Castlevania
Ill Dracula
Curse Super
Castlevania is Castlevania
The Adventure
Castlevania II: Belmont Revenge’s Castlevania Bloodlines Kid
Dracula

That’s not comparable. The situations are quite different. Let me explain:

In your example: Windows. It’s basically the “default” operating system. Billions of users. Some of those billions are kinda dumb and will type in a command or delete a folder because the Internet said so. Ok, so you ruined the day of some dummy with a practical joke. Not particularly funny, but whatever, it’s just some dummy.

In the Linux example, here’s how it goes. There’s an alternative OS people can try out. People who are fed up with Microsoft. They install Linux for the first time, and what’s their first experience? Some practical joke ruins their day. These are the people we want! The good ones. The ones brave enough to try out Linux, and their first experience is a dumb meme that ruins their day, or week, and totally turns them off from the Linux community.

This is not the same as pranking some dumb Windows users.

That’s not googling, that’s ducking. Besides everyone knows you should get that kind of answer from ChatGPT.

it made no sense to me

That’s all CAD software. You can’t just jump in and intuitively learn it by just doing it. It’s like trying to learn a programming language. You need a solid tutorial to explain the basics, at a minimum. Even with something simple like TinkerCAD.

FreeCAD was probably the worst choice. Give TinkerCAD a try. I know the FOSS community will hate me for saying this, but I like Autodesk Fusion for a full featured CAD package. It has a very steep learning curve, like all CAD software, and you need to watch some videos first. You will make a ton of mistakes and do even simple things wrong at first, but once you get going, it’s great to use.

Shit like this is why desktop Linux will never be mainstream.

“How” like how to enable it? I don’t know.

“How” like how does it work? It adds layers to the raw data.

This community should just be called “long empty hallways”.

I just really hate the noise reduction in JPEGs on Pixel Phones. You can’t “crop and zoom” at all! It looks like some weird painting style.

IPhone does it right by adding all of the AI processing to RAW files as data, so you can crop and edit a raw file and then apply the same AI processing it would have had it you had used JPEG mode.

Yeah, but we’re the exceptional 4%.
