  Amazing to see Hot Wheels change from gas to hybrid to EV over the years.

  .world and .ml are servers. I’d recommend choosing a server related to your topic (programming.zone if it’s comp sci related, for example), and try to avoid piling into the largest ones (.world and .ml, etc.).

  Do you mean abominations? lol.

  A more powerful local transmission may be considered jamming. I’m not sure, so look up relevant law beforehand.

  I think the panic around analog clocks comes from the scenario where you have to explain what clockwise and counterclockwise is. I have personally seen someone eventually removed from a workgroup because they couldn’t understand it.

  Not that analog clocks matter, but that was an easy way to teach direction in cylindrical coordinates. What can we use now for that?

  The choice paralysis is real. I chose lemm.ee because it was easy to type into the address bar, and I’ve stuck around because the admin seems pretty level-headed.

  Idk if you can transfer likes comments and posts, but you can go to your old account from a new one and star everything with the new account pretty easily. So that at least can transfer.

  There are a lot of good suggestions in this thread, one thing to note is that too much change too fast is a recipe for failure. Whatever you do, make sure it’s manageable. For each change, ask yourself whether it can become a permanent habit for you. This is the only way to sustain it enough to achieve your goals. It could help to write down good ideas, and try them one week or month at a time.

  Ok, that’s what I’ll do. Thanks so much for the info! 😁

  It is not propaganda if it is true.

  Something can be true and propaganda. If reporting is misrepresenting a situation using purely true information and events, then it’s propaganda. It’s misrepresentation that makes something propaganda, not truthfulness.

  Note: This is not a comment on whether I think Lemmy/Al Jazeera is doing propaganda.

  I have a friend who argues that “it’s just as good, there’s no difference really”. Then we go camping and have to do a unit conversion on how much water to boil and it takes 2 minutes and a phone calculator.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What has he done to deserve this?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had to check the math because 1 m^2^ being 2300 kg while 1 cu ft at 143 lbs seemed crazy, but with the volume difference it’s all correct.

  Thank you for putting in the effort 🙃

  Good and interesting question. I bet you could test it by using static (high entropy) as a background vs the control plain color.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  An equally valid interpretation. 😊
