The woman next to me on this train is on a zoom training about orgasms and it's very hard not to look
@shauna Like self-pleasure?
@spla quan jo treballava a l'aeroport els serveis mínims eren del 100% a les vagues a una empresa i del 80% a l'altra. Hi havia més gent els dies que hi havia vaga que alguns dies "normals"
@xbermusic doncs segueixen igual
well, maybe cause you like the fediverse [this thing here] and want to support any fedi application or federate anything later.
The specs. are a relatively new outcome of the Social CG.
@sl007 okay, I didn’t know the specs are new, all I know is this tool has nothing to do with the fediverse ^^

Custom Feeds: Filter by Keyword
Right now, Custom Feeds in Bonfire have a number of ways to organize, aggregate, sort, and filter posts. Right now, post content filtering is limited to hashtags, but I wonder if we could instead allow people to filter by text strings? Not everybody in the Fediverse uses hashtags, but certain keywords like ActivityPub or Fediverse come up all the time in public conversations.

protip: if you want to feel like an absolute genius here, all you have to do is read the actual articles before going to the comments.
He tornat avui d’un viatge, programat abans de saber-se que hi hauria vaga. M’ha sobtat veure total normalitat a l’aeroport del Prat, botigues obertes etc. I encara més sorprenent, les maletes han sortit de seguida 😳
Tampoc cap problema per arribar a casa en cotxe des de l’aeroport. Potser no he notat cap mena de vaga perquè he aterrat a les 17:30?

@mdiluz And we know just how much people like the Vulkan terminology. 🤣
@gfxstrand IDEs should have a rename-by-way-of-internet-poll that does the poll async and comes back to rename 1 hour later
We hope these fingerprinting test results are useful to everyone looking to switch to a browser that respects and protects their privacy. We also hope they are galvanizing to any browser engineering team working to improve their browser's privacy.
We'll keep testing over time! ✅❌
@privacytests Do you think it's reasonable to show a "leaked timezone" as something meaningful, given browsers will never be able to give an incorrect time for compatibility issue? I wonder if that's just an impossible and therefore meaningless goal post. If you disagree, why not add the operating system to your tests? :-)
Great thread (and comments) but as everyone involved knows, there are many prominent political commentators who have built their entire public identities & careers around these tedious factional disputes & who are threatened with obsolescence if politics evolves beyond them.

Splinter communities are one of the simplest, easiest ways to solve issues associated with growing too large. It’s incredibly frustrating that FOMO apparently drives users, turning splinter communities either into deserts or just the new overcrowded space.
100 spaces with 500 active users are more active, more interesting, and more manageable than 1 space with 50,000, but users seem to think their choices is to subscribe to one big group, or 100 small ones, and not just the one small one that vibes with them best.
It’s incredibly frustrating that FOMO apparently drives users …
Yes I think you’ve put your finger on it there. This obsession with being able to see EVERYTHING in some kind of omega feed.
Like I was showing a friend lemmy and he was like “how can I see ALL the communities [in the whole world]?” or “what if there are duplicate communities?”
He didn’t get that it’s GOOD that you don’t automatically connect to every single lemmy server, or that it’s actually fine if two servers have the “same” community. They’ll just end up being their own thing.

I’m new to the Fediverse, and so far I’m loving it
It reminds me a little of the old internet. I like how relatively small it feels, and that people post content for the sake of the content, not to promote themselves. I haven’t found my usual corners yet, the ones I used to hang out in on older platforms, but I figure that’s just a matter of time. I’m not super nostalgic for the old internet or anything, but it’s nice to find at least a hint of something human-centered somewhere.
I hope it doesn’t fall apart and that it keeps growing.
I was skeptical when I switched to Linux, but then I ditched Windows on my dual boot for good. It was a hugely positive experience, and it really felt like freedom. I’m hoping this will be the same.
And don’t be mad at me if I act totally clueless here sometimes 'cause all that is new to me.

Welcome!
Just like reddit, there can be a ton of downers and doomers.
Just ignore them.
Lemmy’s been great for the couple years I’ve been using it.
@2happy1sad (a) I don’t think Spotify is a good business. (b) I’m not arguing that it’s never a good idea to run in the red for a while building/scaling. It’s not that Anthropic is in the red, it’s how deep in the red.
@gruber You could argue that i guess, my point was that they were running red for 6 years after ipo and are not bankrupt today. I agree on the larger sentiment ofc, i am actually shocked that Ed Zitron to this day have not been able to do the itoldyouso-dance

Probably one of the most obnoxious reporting handwaves is "deep ties and links". It has the same energy as "father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate"
