- Comment on Why are people preferring Blue Sky over Mastodon? 6 days ago:
The people leaving Twitter right now want Twitter minus Elon. That’s Bluesky. They’ve heard a couple of their Twitter follows mention it and they’ve gone to their app store where they find an app called Bluesky, install it and easily join and start using it. Once they do they are finding it pretty straightforward to find people they used to follow on Twitter.
That’s all people want.

How To Make An Apple Pie From Scratch has the recipe for that.
(Seriously, it’s a great read - one of my favourite popular science reads since, well, since Sagan.)

+1 for The Terror. That and Carrion Comfort are my two favourite Dan Simmons novels.

- Comment on We lost Keanu 1 month ago:
Dear Earth, apart from the many terrible things we have done historically, we, the British, are most recently sorry for David Icke, Andrew Wakefield and now Graham Hancock. We have tried to balance this out but one David Attenborough only goes so far.

One of his kids is a Netflix exec apparently.

Not yet, but they’re certainly in our thinking for next year :)

This is great news :) but without wanting to be spammy the org I am a member of !globalorderofsatan@lemmy.blahaj.zone have been running a very similar campaign but for non-mainstream music e.g. metal/punk/indie/alt/industrial/goth that we call “Satan Not Hatin’”
It currently has over 140 opt-in participants of bands, individual artists, venues, festivals, record labels and other orgs from all over the world, including the UK and has been so successful that a well known (within metal circles) documentarian and music video director is currently making a Documentary about the campaign. You can visit the campaign website where we list all the participants and provide more detail - there’s also a link to a YouTube playlist of all the participating bands which also works fine in Invidious!
I have contacted the Graun about Satan Not Hatin’ but mainstream news has little love for alternative music so we’ll carry on with our DIY approach!

If an instance has alt front ends they’re usually listed in the sidebar of that instances home page :)

- Comment on For those thinking of going back to reddit. Gaze upon this comment section and reconsider. 8 months ago:
You’re right, anyone can scrape Lemmy. But that’s not the issue (to me anyway) - Reddit have sold user data - user generated content. None of what they’re profiting from was generated or created by them. Are Reddit users who did generate all this content getting a slice of the profits?
When I post on here I know it’s all open for anyone to access but that’s true of any non walled garden space. I’ve accepted the fact that it’s going to get fed into the hungry maw of some AI behemoth or two.
What Reddit have done is make money for doing absolutely nothing based on content others have created like some sort of technological tapeworm feeding second hand. And along the way they killed off a lot of tools that users loved, moderators found made their jobs easier and people with a visual disability found vital. And all this so u/spez can live out his mini-Musk fantasies.
- Comment on [deleted] 8 months ago:
I’d just like to reassure Lemmy that there are a lot of us (Brits) who are fully aware of the shitness of our Imperial past and its negative (and still felt) effects on people all over the world.
The only excuse I can offer for this persons stunning lack of tact and knowledge is that the Empire is not really taught in any meaningful way in British schools. It’s not unless one chooses to discover for oneself what our ancestors did that you can find out the true horrors of it all.
- Comment on How do I brew this brick of tea? 8 months ago:
Great. Now I have to turn my passport in.
- Comment on How do I brew this brick of tea? 8 months ago:
Best way:
- Break a chunk off x4 teaspoons sized
- Put it in a teapot
- Boil a kettle
- Pour about 2 mugs/cups worth of boiled water into the teapot
- Let the tea mash for a few mins
- Pour it through a tea strainer into a mug/cup
- Add sugar and milk if you’re an uncultured heathen

- Comment on Journalist says he finds it ‘surreal’ to have account on X suspended after writing critique of platform 9 months ago:
How is this surreal? Journalists critical of Musk/Twitter have been being banned since he bought it.
Is this journalist really so self involved he thought it was OK they all got nuked as long as he didn’t?
- Comment on Jewish theatregoers felt 'unsafe' at comedy show - BBC News 9 months ago:
Surely the fact some audience members are ethnically and/or religiously Jewish is irrelevant. According to the article, they weren’t targeted because of their ethnicity or religion but because they refused to support the idea of a ceasefire.
- Comment on What happens to my Corpse if I die in a Forest? 9 months ago:
Don’t think it’d even take weeks. It wouldn’t be just be a couple of foxes or badgers, it’d be all of them for miles around. Scent travels a long way. Then on top of the larger (by European standards) animals, lots of birds eat carrion.
- Comment on What happens to my Corpse if I die in a Forest? 9 months ago:
You’ll start to decay, flies and maggots will infest you. When the smell reaches animals, they’ll eat the meat. During that process the bones will get scattered. Insects will pick the bones clean and anything organic left (the bone fragments themselves) will eventually break down.
- Comment on Would magically turning all trans people into the gender they want to be be unethical? 9 months ago:
Exactly.
- Comment on Would magically turning all trans people into the gender they want to be be unethical? 9 months ago:
But its still not your decision to make. Would 100% of people use it? Probably. What do you lose by asking them first?
- Comment on Would magically turning all trans people into the gender they want to be be unethical? 9 months ago:
So you tell them, preferably ask them, first. That’s why surgeons make you sign consent forms.
- Comment on Would magically turning all trans people into the gender they want to be be unethical? 9 months ago:
I mean, doing anything to anybody without either their knowledge or permission is about as unethical as it gets.
- Comment on how can I develop a thick skin? 10 months ago:
If she’s a good therapist she’ll be feeling awful she couldn’t make it. I’d wait to hear her out before making any judgement on either her no-show or her as a therapist/person. It’s highly unlikely to be a personal slight, whatever it is, and if it’s not personal then there’s no need to develop a thick skin.

Magento was open source before Adobe bought it, Flash wasn’t.

- Comment on How Disney and Warner Bros. Are Causing Internet Piracy to Boom | Platforms like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ were supposed to do away with pirated media. Instead, they may make them stronger than ever. 10 months ago:
Markets are greedy and never satisfied. A fracturing of services has led to situation where it’s impossible for the average person to be able to afford all the streaming services they need in order to watch their stuff. And even if they could, they now have to pay extra to exclude adverts - the lack of which was a major selling point for streaming services. Pay extra to watch in high quality and no matter what service you use and what content you’ve bought - music, TV, books, movies. games - it’s all stuffed full of DRM that can literally remove the media from your devices. You don’t even really own the stuff you’ve bought.
