It’s just the American spelling.
- Comment on Choose Your Fighter: Microblogging Edition 5 weeks ago:
Yes because as I understand it the custom domain is basically just a pointer. Everything still goes through the bsky servers and you can be deplatformed there at the whim of an admin/mod (On Mastodon if you don’t run your own instance that can still happen, but you can instance hop. If you run your own then other instances can block your instance but it’s not the whole network all at once)

Wind turbines also.
But some solar does focus it on a tower to make steam to drive a turbine.
- Comment on People born after 2000 have never seen the cosmic microwave background on their TV set. 1 month ago:
I’m talking long before digital channels existed. (In the US anyway)

Even before the 2000s they started showing a blue screen instead of static.
That wasn’t just a digital or flat panel thing.
But of course old sets were around for a long time.

I’m surprised it’s not by Eiffel.

Yup. Kids are jumpy alright. I expect to see a lot more of them this evening.

Link please? Looks more informative than the one in another comment

In opposing corners no less
- Comment on What websites still feel like the old internet? 2 months ago:
If you want one that isn’t actually from that time, just feels like it, I’d say tildes.net

Rate or dmg?
- Comment on This researcher wants to replace your brain, little by little. The US government just hired a researcher who thinks we can beat aging with fresh cloned bodies and brain updates. 2 months ago:
They won’t be able to afford it.
- Comment on Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future? 2 months ago:
Assuming it’s a surprise, this is Earth All Along. Genre Shift is similar, but that’s more about tone than plot
- Comment on What happened to the turn based RPG and RTS genres? 2 months ago:
If you don’t mind gacha games, I’ve been enjoying Honkai: Star Rail. The battles are turn based, some of the puzzles and events are a bit reaction time dependent, but not difficult generally.
- Comment on Reddit communities will require permission while going private or switching to NSFW 2 months ago:
The answer is simple: Even a single popular subreddit has more users and content than all Lemmy instances combined.
That ‘mass migration’ a year ago made Lemmy viable as a social network, but barely affected Reddit at all in terms of numbers, and numbers are all they care about.
I’m still here on Lemmy, but to the Vast majority of Reddit users, nothing has changed (at least not enough to leave the place where all their communities are)

After the first part I expected “Cleaning the vacuums from a room allows more sound to survive”

But it only needs to reach 165°F, about 74°C.
Basically every food package says so. - Comment on xkcd #2983: Monocaster 3 months ago:
It’s also already in the comic

I’ve seen inline skates ranging from 2 wheels per skate to 5.
On this chart they all be inline.
- Comment on Why does your nose only itch when both hands are full? 3 months ago:
That one actually has a simple math reason: the slow lane is slow generally because it has more cars, so more people are actually in it than are in a faster lane. (Ignoring traffic waves and taking the average speeds)
- Comment on FTC urged to make smart devices say how long they will be supported 3 months ago:
And require open sourcing the tools to sign and flash it.

Unless it’s vaporwavecore
- Comment on There is no history on the History channel. There's nothing true on TruTV. There's no music on music television. There's no science on the science channel. 3 months ago:
So… No brothers I guess?

They moved on to qanon. That’s not even a joke.

That typo reverses the meaning by being one letter off.

I wish I knew. It was in the cafeterias at work, and I would be the only person in a room of a hundred who was standing there plugging my ears and cringing from the pain.
