It seemed like a good idea at the time.

I'm pretty happy here in our corner of Lemmy. Why would I want to know what's going everywhere on the internet all at once?

Or when Netgear just randomly picked university of Wisconsin as the NTP server for all it's cheap routers. https://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~plonka/netgear-sntp/

Shit's fucked. Could be a scam too. Apparently common on Facebook at the moment people advertise a room or something like this and then when people start messaging they ask for the first week payment to secure it before everyone else.

So they get a dozen or so people's $200.

Maybe the easiest method is to create the fusion reaction in space because then you don't need to worry about containment. Have a big ball of fusion going nonstop and then beam that energy to earth.

Then have collectors which receive that beamed down energy. You could put them everywhere... Maybe close to where you need the energy like directly on top of buildings and houses.

The cultural context for myself as a teenage boy was that Christina Applegate was in it.

Surely we can agree it's better to have too many choices rather than having some greedy piggy ban them all.

Enshittification and masturbation.

Thousands of angry Muslims around the world demanding Sweden forbid such acts reacted by storming and burning the Swedish embassy in Iraq on July 20, for instance, as well as burning countless US, Israeli, Swedish and LGTBQ flags.

So they're complaining about their symbols being burnt but they do exactly the same? Okay.

I'm Australian and went on a business trip last month to the UK and to the USA.

In the UK I didn't see Bluey anywhere, but in the USA I saw Bluey stuff everywhere. Every hotel room at some point flipping channels Disney Jr seemed to have Bluey on all the time. I saw kids wearing Bluey merch when out and about. I saw Bluey merch in stores. Even on a flight, the kids in front of me were watching Bluey on the inflight entertainment.

At one hotel I had to go down the hallway to get some ice, and was wearing my Bandit PJ t-shirt. Another guy in his 30s came out of the elevator and was like "OMG I love your shirt! We all love Bluey!"

So my question is, will the next generation of American squibs all have an Australian accent?

Your point stands, but just wanted to point out that the lemmy devs have been working full time on this for the last 3 years, funded by https://nlnet.nl/

Zuck can be AI generated so easily because you don't have to worry about the uncanny valley.

At the moment if you're inside a post and you want to refresh the comments you have to go all the way to the top and do the pull-down to refresh. Generally this is fine.

However a lot of communities have "live" posts where people watch a tv show or a sports event together. Especially with sports events the actual post text might be really long and requires a lot of scrolling to get past.

For instance a typical live sports thread: https://lemmy.world/post/1156203

I'm sorting by comments by "New" to easily follow the live chat. However to refresh, I need to scroll up about 10 pages on a mobile to get to the top of the post (all the scores and match details are being live updated by a bot in the post body). And then after a refresh I have to scroll all they way back down.

If there was somewhere to just press a refresh button when down in the comments or at the bottom of the post body. I think BaconReader used to have it in the top menu bar of the app. Just an option in the 3 dots menu to refresh would be fine.

Thanks!
