On this topic, I'm really surprised that Apple made Airtags with batteries that can be changed by the user. I'm even more surprised they used the most common coin cell as the battery

SimilarWeb needs to invest a little in their presentation skills. A bar graph with no difference in the bar heights is not very interesting. And are they aware you can use more places after the decimal point? "1.7B" above each bar doesn't help at all.

I don't understand how the middle and right pictures compare. There are ten total lanes in the middle picture, but only six in the right picture.

Musk even encouraged people he fired to work for a competitor in a post he made in November. I don't have a link to it, but he was mocking their abilities and said that if their skills are so good, they will be welcome at another company.

Edit: found it

If you are a Grateful Dead fan, there are five days that are the least interesting: https://gratefuldeadoftheday.com/01-09-1965/

Jan 1, Jan 19, Feb 29, Aug 9 and Dec 25.

Those are the only days of the year that they never played a concert.

It reminds me of the occasional times where a corporate email would be sent out improperly to "all" in our company. A few people would reply all: "take me off this list". Then someone would reply all to those guys: "don't reply all". Then other people would reply all:"you are spamming the whole company!", etc.

It would take an hour or so to die off, but It was kind of amusing to see people react to the chaos. I assume the bitching about Reddit will die off naturally.

Are you avoiding all interaction with the communities on lemmy.world, also? I'm not clear if I should just avoid using this .world account, or if I should avoid all .world communities to prevent overloading.

If I set up my private instance for the purpose of interacting with other, popular, servers, can I save my comments locally? I'm referring to comments I make on another host, such as lemmy.ml I'm trying to understand if there is a way to keep my content in the event that the other server disappears.

I like the silly related quote:

Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

Following up on this, I'm hoping that some journalism organization sets up a "default" instance for verified journists to post from. It was nice having verified Twitter instances for this purpose.

I don't think that is necessarily relevant. Romania didn't seem to be in a hurry to arrest him until she made the post. I think the more relevant thing she did was to embarrass Romania into action.

Very cool, thanks! It's funny, because I went to your repo and I already had it starred. I've been wandering through so many instances/apps/websites during this Lemmy process - I've lost track of some things I've stumbled upon in the last month,

Were you able to export your list of subscriptions and import into another instance? I thought that would be a feature, but I can't find it on lemmy.world

Did OneLouder make money from BaconReader somehow? It's the only app I've used for years and I never saw an ad.

It was buggy and the "Subscribed" feeds weren't showing anything. I just deleted and reinstalled and it's working well now.

I like that it shows the full community/instance name with each post. That lets me see where the content is coming from. It seems hidden on another apps I've tried.

I was thinking of various movies that constantly run on TV, but your comment made me realize that Cars or Polar Express is probably the correct answer. My son was obsessed with those movies when he was young and we had them on constant rotation.

I've had an Odroid running for many years, just as a Linux server to play with and automate some stuff on my home LAN. I was looking to upgrade to something with more RAM and found that the SBCs with more RAM get expensive pretty quick. Plus, there is the limitation of depending on a custom Linux build from the manufacturer that runs on the device. So I ended up buying a mini PC for not much more than an SBC with lots of RAM. There's this one, as an example for $150

I ended going higher in price with this one

But for just playing with Linux, these are much more useful because you can run any normal Linux distro.

I found that the app Connect for Lemmy has the best implementation so far to deal with this. The common community names aren't aggregated into single feed, but when you look at your subscriptions, they are listed and grouped by the community name, rather than the instance. So, for example, I see all the "technology" communities next to each other in the list.

I'll double-check my path.
