hey, as long as its still your opinions and not the machines.
@redrozalia Always mine!
You wouldn’t believe how much time it takes for me to craft the artisanal, bespoke posts that I lovingly craft.
Also, it should be obvious because I never refer to the petty, elite class by name in anything because its so hard to spell.

Yea, it just sticks out for me because it didn’t die because of disinterest as a fading fad, it got shutdown because of corporate enshittification >:(
A new milestone for desktop settings 🛠️
381 community members across 42 countries gave us their input to redesign Thunderbird’s desktop settings. Those insights have been turned into an interactive prototype you can explore now.
Read the full research breakdown and test the prototype here: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2026/11/from-research-to-prototype-testing-the-new-desktop-settings/
@thunderbird this never would have happened with SeaMonkey.

I have looked at this website at least once a week since my first visit to J*
https://www.josephoregonweather.com/josephcams.php
I had it up daily for like the first year until I compromised and half moved to Walla Walla. Which I also find crazy that there was a 5.3 earthquake
@godber @msbellows @KO6YQ @ingalls Oooh, like the snow camera, FANCY

As an awkward teenager, who didn't have great communication skills, I'd make & gift custom mixed tapes to my crushes instead of telling them. If I really liked you, I'd make mixed tapes & create beautiful prints from my film camera, in a darkroom. That's how I communicated my crushes.
@PhoenixSerenity That's very cool, and smarter than most folks 👍
Rain, rain, oh so wonderful rain
Please stay another day or three
We so need thee

@georgetakei no not really just that it took him så long to start that again.
Doing some comparison shopping...
I reckon if I can get the materials for my #merephone project at ~$1 per component... That'd be ~$20, or pessimistically $30, to manufacture the device.
Covering my time & distributor fees I could probably sell merephones at $100, or $200 if CrowdSupply can't find me a significant discount on cellular modems.
These are all ballpark figures from a hardware novice, but still very cheap! I think USD.
Thoughts?
What's the most you'd happily pay?

We appear to be escaping captivity and getting talked about in all kinds of interesting places, :)
Thank you for the link!
@RussSharek @algernon I'm trying to decided if I keep using the Hippocratic License or if I change to fhh...
It's weird to me that HL which has been around for at least 5 years doesn't get mentioned in these discussions 🤷
@textbook solltest du wieder einmal zur Masto-Migrantin werden, komm zu uns. :-)
@christin Voll süß! - Merci!😍
Wow. The end of ONA' s event. Old-time editors and publishers also no longer gather. Another sign of the fall of mass media.

@ai6yr As a veteran of more than one [um] ambitious startup, there's an incredibly fine line between grift and serious self-delusion.
Next week, on CBS All-Access Captain Lorca reconfigures the spore drive to mine bitcoin though that brings back an old cast member.

The best way to post from Mastodon to Lemmy is like this:
Test post from Mastodon to Lemmy <- 1st line: automatically turned into a title
@Fediverse <- 2nd line: mentioning the Lemmy community
Writing this from Mastodon as a Test. Hello! <- Everything below: the post body
Lemmy automatically turns the first line/paragraph of a Mastodon toot into the title.
"People master very complicated and user-hostile processes *all the time*"
As someone who has been programming for 50 years, I learned how to drive ONCE. I also learned woodworking ONCE.
That is absolutely untrue for programming.
@bitsavers i don't know. i don't drive, but i do hire a rideshare maybe a half dozen times a year as needed, and i feel like every year i have to learn the newfangled way to *open and close the car doors*. i know i wouldn't be able to figure out how to, like, turn on the parking brake or whatever in a tesla with a touch screen
