At first I thought "fossil generation" meant the creation of fossils and I was confused.

What phone do you have, and what'll it take for you to upgrade to Pixel 8? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I have a P7. There are 2 things I don't like about it: it's too heavy, and the jerky scrolling.

If they released an updated version of the P5 I would jump on that. The P5 was the perfect phone.

I know. The picture of the calendar is entirely self-explanatory yet they wrote a thousand words explaining it.

I really wish I did not watch this.

The other day I heard a friend talking about how "the moon's gravity affects our internal organs." This sounds like bull, but is it? And if so, how would I correct their misinformation? in c/[email protected]

Why is this being upvoted when it is blatantly false?

If I go to [email protected] while I am logged in to my lemm.ee account and tap the share icon, it creates a link to [email protected] when it should be @lemmy.world.

Do we want a daily NRL discussion thread? (lemm.ee)
 

I've written a simple lemmy bot that can post on a daily basis. I know there's not much activity on this community, but I thought I could start scheduling Monday Footy Chat, Tuesday Footy Chat, etc.

Thoughts?

When posting a URL, the post title should be automatically taken from the link (lemm.ee)
 

In reddit apps, whenever you create a new post based on a URL, the post title gets suggested from the link title. Can we get this feature in Liftoff?

David Warner’s place in the Australian Test squad must come to an end (www.news.com.au)
 

While I agree that Warner is no longer up to Test standard, does Australia have anyone to replace him with?

Harris has already failed in his several chances and would probably be a downgrade. Renshaw was very poor in India. I'm not convinced about Bancroft. Who else is there?
