Welcome! 3 years Kubuntu here.

Ahh. That explains a lot. Thanks.

Maybe another stupid question, but how does someone mod 50+ communities? I imagine a low-traffic sub would be easy, but a high-traffic one is bound to attract lots of a--holes who need comments deleted/banning/reporting, etc.

Is this a 24 hr/day gig? Do these mods have day jobs?

I guess my main questions are how do they do it, and why do they do it.

I've been looking for a TV for awhile now, and I've found that there aren't really any practical dumb ones. There are a few models, but they're more expensive and have lower specs, cheaper panels, fewer menu options, etc.

Overall, the smart TVs are going to be cheaper/better because the company plans to make money on target ads, data mining, etc. Just don't connect it or enter a wi-fi password. Sadly that's where we're at now.

Well, if you're on desktop and you don't mind installing scripts on your browser, there's a Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey script. https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/141704

OMG, same here. I got tired of buying a new inkjet every 2 years or so. I bought a Brother laser all-in-one 4 yrs ago and haven't looked back. My only regret was not spending the extra bucks to get a color model.

Ahh, I get that reference. I fell asleep when I tried to watch the actual movie. Thanks.

I don't get it, but I'm upvoting.

I dual boot Kubuntu ~~22.04~~(edit: 23.04) on the SD. Using a Pinnacle 801e TV stick and NextPVR for viewing.

The TV stick does most of the heavy lifting, CPU usage was really low. Drivers weren't an issue. It's already supported in the kernel.

I just got sick of that damn hedgehog struttin' around like he owns the place.

There's no hate like Linux on Linux hate.

I've always heard puns were. I don't believe it though. I mean a good pun is its own reword.

I'll see myself out.

If you use Ublock Origin, here's a filter that will hide lemmynsfw posts on your main page. Filters should work the same on all major ad blockers, but I can't vouch for that.

! 2023-06-21 https://lemmy.world
lemmy.world##.post-listing:has-text(@lemmynsfw.com)

ELI5 explaination:

the first line is just so Ublock can keep different filters and domains organized

lemmy.world## - only use this filter on this site

.post-listing - evaluate everything on the page with the class name post-listing

has-text(lemmynsfw.com) - the text we want to filter

Of course if the site gets updated and the layout changes, this filter won't work anymore. I'm on VLemmy, so I can't really test it on lemmyworld. Let me know if it doesn't work. Cheers.

 
 

Lemmy doesn't seem to allow uploading them natively, and it's hard to create a Mustangs Crashing or Idiots in Cars channel without an easy way to attach video.
