Seems like the better advice would be "Don't travel to the fascist country where they might start murdering your demographic en masse", rather than "Contact the embassy of the fascist country ahead of time to ensure that they know that you're part of the demographic they want to murder en masse".

advising them to contact the American embassy if their passport has a gender designation "X" or differs from their birth gender

Why?

The difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars is about a billion dollars

One of the benefits of sand over water is the same as the benefit of boiling oil: it can get considerably hotter than water's 100⁰C

I mean, having a few of the plane is going to be handy... it's rare that your enemies will sell you their equipment to dissect, normally you have to capture it

Presumably, but the cost of the vehicle is entirely besides the point.

The point is that the adhesive isn't the problem, the Tesla badge is the problem.

Plenty of vehicles have panels held on by glue. If you use the right glue, and apply it properly, it's fine.

Tesla presumably cheaped out on the glue itself, and also on the man-hours for the work, and also also on QA/QC

This wasn't something people voted for

Yes it is

 

Currently the 'Parent' button takes you to the top-level comment of the thread. Could it be split into two buttons, one of which takes you to the immediate parent comment?

 

Does anybody know of a list of usb live-bootable distros, with links to the download pages?

I have a coworker who wants to switch his gaming computer over to Linux, he has Linux experience but from like a decade ago.

He's not partial to any particular distro, so I was hoping to just put together a multiboot flash drive with a bunch of live images he could try. But I'm not sure what I should include, and what has live images, vs. install only images.

I'm most comfortable in an environment with apt, so Debian and Mint are of course already covered, but if the gaming-specific distros have live usb images, that would probably be the best thing for him to try.

 
 

When reading a web page within Connect, it would be nice if long-pressing on links in the webpage would give a popup with the option to open the link in an external browser (and probably also an option to just copy the link). I frequently find myself linked to Wikipedia from a Lemmy comment, and then want to open other links from that wiki page, so then I have to open the page I'm on externally and refind my spot in the article.

Having the same options when long-pressing a link in a comment/post would be nice as well.

 

Edit: there's already a setting for it, another user pointed it out. Ignore me :)

~~Currently, when you block an instance or community, it's blocked app-wide. I had blocked various NSFW communities and instances on my main account so that they don't show up in my All feed, but now I can't access them from my NSFW account unless I use a different app to do so, or repeatedly unblock and reblock them as needed.~~

~~Can we instead make block lists on a per-account basis (or have the option of account-associated or global blocking)?~~

 

The text when I try to type comments (but not the text in the search bar or, as I'm just now learning, here in the 'post body' text box) is white, and I can't find the setting to change it. Obviously I could change my background back to the default blue that it was, but that's the opposite of a solution.

Anybody know?
