  gotta find loads of interesting accounts & hashtags, to basically tailor your feed manually, then it can feel very lively. I follow 500 accounts and it has given pretty unique feed compared to bluesky.

  Wasn’t aware that this is a 4K video and my lemmy UI doesn’t have option to play at lower scale (not sure if lemmy itself has this feature). Accidentally crashed my phone lol

  I had similar idea a while ago but admittedly more political than mundane.

  You’re a boss in your corporation. game’s objective is to be annoying and mess around with your worker. But somehow through your abuse you also have to keep your corporation alive financially.

  It’s a mix of sandbox & tycoon. but the gameplay should be more sandboxed to really allow player create mess, and not very pressured by the goals created by the tycoon aspect.

  Thank you for the recommendation! That does sound familiar. The Scythian is the people the Greeks called to what Persian people call Saka.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do horses allow humans to ride on their backs?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to watch this video two years ago, and a few other horse history video on that channel www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMHqp0M0T4Q

  It’s a more approachable video for general audience so it may not be super scientific. But they included the source/papers in the description from proper academics.

  Wild horses were originally not fit for riding. It is found that their bones would not be able to support to be ridden. But at the time, horses also started interacting with human & being domesticated as food & material sources.

  But human do realize the power horses have. Human started developing chariots to be pulled by horses. The chariot technology spread around the north eurasian steppe to south in the south-west asia & egypt. But I cannot definitively say if the chariot techbology in egypt or persia came from north or it’s developed locally. I haven’t exactly find out about the relationship of both region when it comes to chariot technology.

  During few thousand years later horses also slowly evolved physicaly to be able to be ridden. And so in later bronze age, nomadic steppe people emerges such as the Saka/Scythians, Xiongnu, etc.

  My personal searching two years ago was definitely very focused on central asia/eurasian steppe region. So I cannot say much about the same stuff happening in south-west asia despite I know there are a lot going on in that area at the same time. But then after writing this and re-read the question, this doesn’t exactly answer why horses allow human to ride them 🤣🤣 I only say about how human changed horse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MFW I wake up to find Lemmy feeds full of USA stuff⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  depends on who you follow I guess. I always follow people who I decide I want to keep seeing their post. I don’t follow famous people if they post boring stuff. I also don’t follow brand account that are just posting ads lol, like software brand account, etc. I follow 516 accounts and it’s feels pretty lively.

  Though with that amount of following I feel like there are few accounts that got their post buried because they post less frequently.

  I mostly follow few gamedev people, few FOSS & tech people, non-tech related “fedi shitposters”, and history/archaeology-posting accounts. The shitpoters, gamedev, and tech are the loudest. The latter posts semi-regularly but they just don’t have other people interacted with it. Though I still enjoy their posts.

  conversely, I had a alt account on different instance but I don’t actively follow so much account, it feels so empty. though that particular instance have some funny people so the local feed is also quite funny sometimes. So which instance to join is also matters particularly for the local feed.

  But it’s also that personally now I’d get slightly annoyed when totally random post appears on my timeline on Bluesky and especially Tumblr. Especially Tumblr which keeps assuming I like taylor swift.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MFW I wake up to find Lemmy feeds full of USA stuff⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think Lemmy ia harder to filter. My mastodon/sharkey feed is clean from being US-centric because there’s content warning feature, people use it, and people describes their image well in the alt-text. That works well with filter. Even the public federated feed i still very clean.

  Lemmy however is less robust on that. My Lemmy frontend is not helping either. It does have filter feature but I don’t think it works. I can’t say anything on Piefed, haven’t tried it at all.

  I was ignoring everything Waterfox back when I realize they were bought by an advertising company, System1, which also owns StartPage.

  BUT, I recently read from Wikipedia that Waterfox has gone independent again since 2023.

  uh that sucks. I also recently contanted ubisoft customer service to disable 2FA on my account because I’ve lost access to my old phone which saved the 2FA key. It’s seems like it’s mostly handled by LLM, the reviewed by human but it works and solved within 15 minutes.

  I was thinking maybe if I really need to contacting apple support could help. but it seems like it’ll be a challenge. maybe I’ll try in a few years.

  I’ve been hearing few cases of people get locked out of their apple id recently. what happened.

  curious because I also happen to be locked out of my apple id. though I only used it for apple music several years ago.
