Thank you for this.

It gets worse the longer I look lol

Can we get a "Follow Person" option? in c/jerboa@lemmy.ml
[–] FrankTheHealer@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 years ago (9 children)

No. Thats not how Lemmy works. Reddit added this feature a while back to make it more like other social media sites.

We dont need to emulate that.

Mastodon is designed for following individual people.

Lemmy is designed for following communities. Mixing one with the other now will only slow development and confuse new users.

Yeah fuck this move. Seems incredibly short sighted and a huge fuck you to the community.

I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I dont think you can die from not pooping for 3 days. I go 3 days without pooping sometimes because my metabolism is slow as fuck.

A week or longer without pooping? Yeah might cause issues, but 3 days is fine

I'm leaning towards drug smuggling

No pooping so they don't expel the drug packets that they have ingested. No sweating so they dont seem nervous. And less peeinhg since will be travelling, on planes, cars etc

Whaf do you think of hosting an AMA with John Oliver to make Lemmy/kbin officially a viable Reddit replacement? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] FrankTheHealer@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is there a dedicated AMA community on Lemmy, Beehaw or Kbin?

/r/AMA good on reddit as it centralized a lot of those kinds of posts. Having an equivalent here on the threadiverse would be fantastic to enable these kinds of events.

I hope they beat the shit out of each other and dont pull their punches

Windows compatibility is insane! in c/memes@lemmy.ml
[–] FrankTheHealer@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Basically, spaghetti code is code that is poorly written or implemented.

Most of the time, companies can use newer technologies to replace or fix this bad code, but if the spaghetti code is still needed or in use, then it becomes too difficult or expensive to fix. So we end up with old, badly written and inefficient code and are stuck with it indefinitely.

Good example here being Windows. Some programs from over 20 years ago will still run on Windows 11, many companies rely on these older programs and Microsoft knows this. However, the systems written to allow these programs to run in Windows is usually seen as being bad code since it lacks a lot of the modern techniques programmers use to make things easier to work with and maintain over time. But these old systems cannot be changed or updated since they will then not work with those 20 year old programs that many companies rely on.

What kind of bugs are you guys getting? (lemmy.ml)

Ive been getting a bug where typing in the app, like a comment or something, if I repeatedly press backsapce to fix a typo or something, it will delete the spaces before words.

Also saving an image crashes the app every time.

And sometimes the names of communities in feed get their last word removed. So I would see post from 'you should' rather than 'you should know'

And also, the app constantly goes back to the top of 'Subscribed - Active'. So if ive been browsing 'All - Top day' for an hour, sometimes clicking on a post and then backing out again will jump straight back to top of 'Subscribed - Active'.

Edit: a one that comes up for me too is getting messages appear on screen for a couple of seconds. Sometimes they say 'Timeout' but other times its 'Value <html'> of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject'

Not sure what that means but just thought I'd mention it here in case anyone else is experienceing similar

Feeder is a great RSS app on Android as well. I even use it for YouTube subscriptions

What are your feature requests or improvements you'd like to see in Steam Deck? (lemmy.ml)
 

Personally, I would really like to see Valve add a video capture feature. Like how on Xbox and PlayStation, you can press a button to record the last 30 seconds of gameplay. Something like this is almost impossible to do conviently on Steam Deck and just Linux systems in general. Valve adding it in natively to the Steam UI would be absolutely amazing.

Anyway, what features or improvements would you like to see on Steam Deck?

What are you folks playing on Steam Deck these day? (lemmy.ml)
 

Ive just started Final Fantasy XV and have been quite happy with it so far.

Over the past few months, I played through all of Fallout 4, Fallout New Vegas and GTA V. I'm trying to clear my backlog before I buy any more games lol

So anyway, what are you been playing on your Deck?

Hello? is there anyone here? (lemmy.ml)
 

Just making a quick post to see if this page is active? Been keeping an eye on Lemmy for a long time but I know it will grow after the Reddit API changes. So just putting this out there in case anyone else is here?
