As a vegan myself, I completely agree! I won't tell others what to eat and they shouldn't tell me what to eat. If I were to ever get "preachy" it's purely about reducing impact on the factors mentioned in the meme and by no means forced... One less meal a week with meat in? Go you! Locally sourcing meat? Hell yeah, less environmental impact!

How did you mess with school computers?

I remember in early secondary school there was a weird desktop that would briefly flash during the login process. A friend and I decided to keep logging out and in and furiously click around to see if we could access it, one of the times we did it and that desktop session stayed, there wasn't anything special about it besides a blank windows command prompt, we closed it...

Cut to the school computer systems being down for over a day and noone knowing why, felt pretty scared of being found out over the following week!

Thursday Moans

I've not had hayfever before but for the last 48 hours I've had a scratchy throat and dry/sticky eyes... So I think I've finally succumb to hayfever and I am barely starting to understand the frustration that all of you long-time sufferers have lived with!

subscribe pending ?

I noticed this too, I worked around it by:

  • Going to the community
  • Clicking on "pending" (this seemingly cancels the subscribe request)
  • Selecting "subscribe" again

It seems hit or miss but that made it work in some cases, a few others I left for a couple of minutes then checked back on my subscribed communities - https://feddit.uk/communities/listing_type/Subscribed/page/1 - to see the subscription had become successful.

I largely suspect this might be a load issue or something with federation. I imagine there's a lot of stress on various parts of the Lemmy federated infrastructure from the influx of reddit users.

Gun focused games

Absolutely agreed!

I'm not a fan of that sort of violent video games, it's made me struggle to find decent alternatives to my Rocket League addiction. I like competitive online games but I don't care for shooters
