  these get really hot at the slightest hint of some load

  Me too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  props to you for running such a niche forum! That kind of thing is rare online nowadays

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Essentially, yes. And maybe that’s part of why people jumping from reddit like it so much, but personally, I don’t think the things like this that Piefied is doing are good for the fediverse ecosystem

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Here’s the writeup about it, going around

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Granted I browse Lemmy via voyager on Mobile, and Alexandrite on desktop, but this has never been an issue. I find it incredibly easy to block stuff, and curate what I want to see

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s been some controversy recently about censorship hardcoded into Piefed’s backend. Basically it gives people a “social credit score” based on how they post.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Noooooo⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  My mom does this, but she says it in the most foreboding way imaginable.

  “Call me as soon as you can…”

  I’m thinking someone has just died, but no. She just wants help with the lawnmower or something

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨...is this retro?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Frankly, the reason this is shocking to people is that games, graphically and mechanically, made leaps and bounds from the SNES to the 360, and gave largely stagnanted from the 360 to now.

  Praise the developers who actually made the thing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTok uninstalls are up 150% following U.S. joint venture⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I could get behind Vine back in the day, because it’s 6 second time limit bred a lot of creativity. But that’s about it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Poor Jeremy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So this is why Gezebelle Gaburgably likes snails so much

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I look 10 years younger, after having been on Estrogen for a couple years.

  This guy’s attempts to look younger have culminated in him getting on some Picture of Dorian Gray shit

  shakes fist at cloud back in my day, that’s what 4chan was for!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This feels like satire, ngl

  I don’t think Gravity is the hierarchy preventing arthritis patients from getting medical care

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone using Revolt?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  mongoloid

  Hey, what the fuck?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MFW I wake up to find Lemmy feeds full of USA stuff⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love checking Lemmy in the morning, and seeing all the German language Memes. I can’t read them, since I don’t know German, but I like knowing that they’re over there, doing their thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨the year of the linux desktop⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They meant the verb, not the noun

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Post hog, loser, I bet my girldick is bigger than yours

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rushmore⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, for any gringos with a limited Knowledge of indigenous history, imagine if ISIS genocided 99% of the world’s Catholics, and then built a giant statue of its founders on top of the ruins of the Vatican.

  That’s what Mt. Rushmore is

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wikipeter was the founder of the site in 1993 when he wanted to know more about model trains without having to visit the library ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And then there’s Serbo-Croatian Wikipedia

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I need to vent about plastic milk jugs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah? Well I blew into your mom’s mold last night!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Asking the difficult questions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I saw the title, and hoped someone was summoning Demons from the Key of Solomon or some shit. Like they were worried about their dog getting possessed.

  But yeah, “am I hurting my dog’s brain with a card trick” is pretty funny too

  As someone who hasn’t been in a Best Buy in over 15 years… What the fuck do they sell then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Some friends and I got together and watched Weapons for Halloween (on a friend’s jellyfin server) and we had a great time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NEVER OBSOLETE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  protoweb.org

  It’s a proxy server that works kind of like an Advanced version of the Wayback Machine. So old PCs like this, can connect to something like what the internet would’ve been like when they were first made.

  I have the Protoweb browser on my Linux mint machine, running through wine. It’s fun to poke around at, and great for internet archaeology

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NEVER OBSOLETE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Run protoweb on that bad boy, and keep it alive 😎

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The cloud is just someone else's computer, but the internet is just someone else's network⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I read something awhile back about a project to make a community run internet via mesh network. In tuscon, I think

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Change my mind⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re missing “Arguing on Facebook” followed by, “Still Arguing on Facebook, after Zucc replaces all your friends with robots”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🤔 Interesting Theory.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I find that a lot of straight liberals will practically foam at the mouth to identify a Bad removed that they can be homophobic towards.

  Remember all of those homoerotic images of Trump and Putin that libs loved to be openly disgusted by?

  I know capitalism is evil and all that jazz, but the Japanese consumer electronics boom was so sick
