But Mars is named after the god of war, it’s Earth that’s named after all that stuff you find on the ground

maybe Dodi and FitGirl are one and the same?

I don’t think so, I specifically use Dodi repacks because they seem to extract better. I find FitGirl repacks can take hours to extract and often crash.

Also, I think they’re talking about dodi-repacks.download being a backup for the main Dodi site, not FitGirl.

It’s annoying when people get pedantic about spelling on the internet, but at least you weren’t a massive, insufferable arsehole about it.

The second I realise I’m dreaming I wake up.

I think it’s because the second I am some level of conscious the deep rooted anxiety starts again and jolts me up 🙂

Sorry, but this article seems a bit silly; they equate not having heard the term “climate justice” with not understanding it.

I hadn’t heard of the term before, but already understood the bits it encompasses when they explain what it means.

I just think it’s misleading to say that people don’t understand it, when they’re probably just not up to date on the buzzword.

Yeah, Lemmy loves to talk about how this won’t work and they’ve moved to Plex, but overall it’s been working great for Netflix.

Eventually the bubble will burst and people will start to drop Netflix, but that’s a way off.

Not gonna lie, really couldn’t get through 2 minutes of the video.

Just so much snobbery in the video, sounds like a TotalBiscuit wannabe but with shit takes and trying to cram fancy words in.

I’m not a fan of this remaster/remake phase in media, but remaking a 23 year old game like this is valid imo.

I’ve also heard great things about this remake and have played some great remakes as well, so this is just hating for the sake of it imo.

I tend to watch shows three or so episodes at a time, but then it can be a few days or even weeks until I get back to it.

Side note: I really appreciate shows that put out a proper recap of the last season. I ain’t rewatching an entire season just so I can watch the new one.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve had moments of pure despair as I feel like one’s gonna tear me in half.

A real porcelain shatterer.

Reducing it to one year made sense, one year down to 10 days is actually a fucking massive difference. Practically speaking, it’s a far, far bigger change than 8 years down to 1.

This isn’t just an “ongoing trend” at this point, it would be a fundamental change to the way that certificates are managed i.e. making it impossible to handle renewals manually for any decently sized business.

I have many billions. Some would say the most billions. The billions I have are the best billions, everyone agrees.

Even though I have the best billions, these journalists, nasty people, they attack me. Just because of my billions, can you believe it?

So anyway, I say who cares what they say, we just need to fight like hell and take back our country ✊

 
 

I just don't get how Lemmy is going to act as a proper replacement for Reddit.

I understand the basic concept of Lemmy and the Fediverse, and people are touting the concept of it being federated and not centrally controlled, but it is an absolute mess and nobody seems to have an idea about what to do with it.

How are communities going to grow if there isn't at least some form of central management. Other than there being an underlying framework that connects the servers, they're all just doing what they want.

Outside of the underlying framework, there's no 'guidelines' or consistency. The servers have random names, and the main Lemmy.ml is telling people to register elsewhere.

How is this going to bring in a wider audience if people are being directed to lemmy.fmhy.ml, sopuli.xyz, or sh.itjust.works?

What is the purpose of the Fediverse when forums for niche interests already exist on the internet?

Does it make sense to have something like a 'sports' server that has communities for soccer, NFL, basketball, MMA? But then how do you get a consistent naming scheme that lets people know it's part of the fediverse?

Maybe Lemmy could work as a replacement, but it seems like it needs a 'flagship' server with a group of people maintaining it to set an example. Then other servers that cover more specific areas, such as sports, can be set up and potentially work closely with that flagship group.

If this doesn't happen, then I can't see how this doesn't just fizzle out.

P.S. I've also compared two different Lemmy servers and looked at the same post in a community, and there are different numbers of comments on each where they haven't synced up...

I also wanted to post this to the main Lemmy community, but as I had to register via a different server, I'm not able to access that community from the server I'm using for some reason...
