Cycling kickstarters have an awful track record. Make sure it's make by an actual cycling company and even then it's better to do a late pledge after some fulfillment and reviews.

It just sucks because he's getting a relatively "white glove" treatment compared to the usual drug war policies. Criminalization was always wrong and Joe Biden caused that in his actions in the Senate. If Joe Biden can learn empathy for drug addicts through his son I hope something good comes of it.

Yes, instances are quaking in their boots that lemmy world might *checks notes* block two specific communities. Chilling to would-be pirates everywhere.

The lemmy code is free as in beer and free as in freedom, so you don't need to give any info to use it yourself.

I watched it and it's intriguing. The characters have similar roles to the real show and speak in similar ways. The problem is that the "writer" has no point of view and therefore the satire was completely missing.

Wish I could, my phone manufacturer has the bootloader locked down and I will be using this one until it stops getting security updates. I'll probably switch to Zenfone 8/9 or a mid budget moto eventually as those tend to be unlockable.

I'm more certain about the first search part.

It took me a distressing amount of time to locate a swimwear brand that even makes a two to four inch inseam swim trunk. It's Sauvage Swimwear, btw. Pricy, but if you're like me and buy one pair every decade it's worth it.

People look down on dress sneakers (dress shoes that have comfortable soles) but as long as they are fully brown or black, 90% of people would never notice them.

The first time anybody on your instance searches for a separate lemmy community, your Lemmy instance reaches out for the other community and learns that it exists. After that point it shows up in searches and after one person subscribes it appears in your instance's All feed.

Bring back cloaks.

It's really hard to know if any particular animal feels pain. There are also hundreds of kinds of jellyfish with a variety of levels of intelligence. Some vegans would tell you that just because the nature of their intelligence is alien to us doesn't mean it's less valuable. Personally I find it difficult to empathize with any creature that lacks a brain, especially plants.

 

The general sidebar and the c/piracy sidebars are empty of guidance. If piracy links were clearly allowed, more people would post them. If piracy links aren't allowed, we keep ourselves safe from C&Ds, legal action, etc.

Right now, we have the worst of both worlds: we are vulnerable to legal action AND there is no clear mandate what forms of piracy are allowed so some people don't feel comfortable doing so, so posts trickle.

These I gather are okay because the sidebar links to r/piracy megathread backups:

  • Links to a directory of sites that host pirated content
  • Links to sites with direct downloads

Are these okay?

  • Links to specific releases via bittorrent
  • Links to specific releases via sites with direct downloads
  • News of specific releases but not linking

Some new users don't even know whether advocacy of piracy is okay. The only thing I've sort of gathered is that in practice, anything goes short of actually hosting copyrighted material on Lemmy servers. And that magnet links are apparently okay according to Dessalines' pinned post (but that should go in the sidebar if true).

 

r/128bitbay remains, as well as their rentry.org page. But for a brief, glorious moment, thousands of people shared tips for how to get Tears of the Kingdom running smoothly!

Edit: Come to think of it, I could probably do a quick roundup post of relevant links to mods for TOTK emulation on Lemmy. I'll do that later.
