Welp, this here is one of the problems of having big, general instances. As any group gets too big you get decisions like this being made. Find your ideal neighborhood in the fediverse and don’t make another monolith

Klingon, and yes

I agree it doesn’t exactly capture the vibe and tone of the 90s show, rather it “gets at” them since it’s a lot closer than other nutrek productions. Visually though it gives Star Trek 2009, which is a fun bit of continuity

Yes, watch Strange New Worlds! It really does get at the vibe and tone of TNG and the other 90s Trek shows. It’s a breath of fresh air

This product is not for you, individual consumer. This is for corporations who don’t want the overhead of managing individual PCs and everything that can go wrong with them, instead relying on virtual workspaces and roaming user profiles.

72 hours, insomnia. They first put me on benzos, then trazodone, then finally Lunesta was able to get my brain working fully again. The benzos were interesting because I didn’t really feel like I slept when I was on it? Like it just erased my memory of the sleepless night

Ooh cyborg zombies, very cool. The detail on the ceiling with that device is also intriguing

Given the crossover of people displaying “thin blue line” flags with those showing “thin red line” flags (which is stupid, who is against the fire department??), and with their success in harassing corporations into dropping DEI initiatives, I wouldn’t put it past right-wing crazies to try bullying their fire departments into ignoring incidents for their progressive neighbors

I love how his last name is pronounced “to share a” and he did, in abundance

I think it’s easy to understand Mastodon, or any federated service, using a metaphor for a country or large place, where you can say “I want to move to X country” but then you have to actually pick a place IN that country to live, like a specific city or rural district. Once you decide on your instance, it’s really not that hard

I read this as “exhilarating loofah”

Things seem to have improved in the last 5 years, so maybe give it another shot. I’m on Fedora 40 with gnome and lots of extensions, and I’m constantly tinkering with it to make it look just right (for fun, not that I feel like I have to). Nothing catastrophic has happened yet!🤞

Well that’s upsetting

Megalodon is a good client, forked from a recent version of the official Mastodon app for Android (which is a fine client in itself). Megalodon also supports some extra features that some instances opt for via a forked backend, but it’s fully compatible with all instances. Here’s are some good place to find instances https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/list https://fedidb.org/software/mastodon

I press my whole hand into the keyboard hitting like 20 keys probably

Tidal? Really? That’s the alternative? No thanks

My sensodyne toothpaste also says that but then right below there it says “this product is specially formulated to help prevent staining” so 🤷

This drug will only be administered to dogs who are at least 7 years old and 40+ lbs

Apparently that hasn’t been a thing since 2006 https://now.tufts.edu/2013/03/20/other-fluoride-benefits-stannous-fluoride

Also make sure you choose a toothpaste that has stannous fluoride and not sodium fluoride. It’s much more effective
