  • lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month

    Jump

  • Is yours one? I saw other people suggest Lemmy.zip, mander I think is one, and lemdr.oid or something like that.

    The problem is that they tend to be smaller, which means harder to find.

  • This suuuucks. We need another big, general instance that doesn't defed everyone. But I get it, being an admin sounds like a lot of work or I would do it lol. Plus I don't have place for a server around here. Or do most admins just buy space from the cloud?

  • In North Korea, your phone secretly takes screenshots every 5 minutes for government surveillance

  • Reminds me of that great joke -

    "I have to admit, I'm always so impressed by Soviet propaganda. You really know how to get people worked up," the CIA agent says.

    "Thank you," the KGB says. "We do our best but truly, it's nothing compared to American propaganda. Your people believe everything your state media tells them."

    The CIA agent drops his drink in shock and disgust. "Thank you friend, but you must be confused... There's no propaganda in America."

    Of course it's not state media directly in the states, but the same billionaires who own the state own the media, so it turns out all to be the same thing in the end.

  • Holy shit actual media criticism and analysis on North Korea. Never thought I'd see this day.

    The little clip with the meta-commentary on news stories commenting about them was hilarious yet insightful, so I definitely have to watch the full documentary they're referencing (EDIT: especially if it's just the 20 minute video you linked. That's the full video? I thought I heard the word documentary so thought it would be longer).

  • Lemmy.one will be shutting down

  • Oh that is kinda sad.

  • Once you know Bootstrap's CSS you can't unsee it

    Jump

  • I used it a little in a recent project, but I'm mostly a backend dev and am new to front end. When I Googlef how to make stuff pretty or improve UI, a lot of results were still related to Bootstrap, probably because it was so ubiquitous for so many years.

    China has introduced a drone that flies like a bird. The new invention could turn the drone industry upside down

  • They poop on heads though, which is negative points for me.

  • China turns on ‘minors mode’ to keep kids safe online

    Jump

  • The rest of the world needs to learn from the US's failure like this ASAP. I think Europe might already be doomed judging by the way the UK and Germany are going, but others might be able to swerve to avoid a fascist future with the right moves.

  • Just wanted to give an update that I started learning Linux. It's been a pain in the ass to look up every basic thing I could do in Windows without thinking, but I'm sure I'll get it down with enough use and googling for every error. Only been using it a couple days so far, but already starting to prefer the console over the UI for some things, thanks to the ability to quickly repeat old commands with the up and down arrow keys. It's kind of exciting, like I'm starting the first steps to join the Linux club I see so much on Lemmy.

  • Chicago Transit Authority deactivates X social media accounts

    Jump

  • And they should make Mastadon accounts or instances instead, especially if they're affiliated with the government.

    It's insane to me that public utilities and officials use a private, third-party thing like X for official communications when they could be controlling their own servers.

  • Fellow Americans, how do you deal with the day to day knowing this capitalist hellhole system is absolutely rigged against us?

  • I've been looking for a mutual aid organization to join and looking into what it takes to get a gun in my state. Bleak, I know lol

  • A Case for Modernizing Lemmy's Default UI with Photon

    Jump

  • Thanks for your contributions on that matter btw. I appreciate you sustaining these other communities, even though I know it's not easy. I like reading non-news stuff lol.

  • As an average OG ex-redditor, Lemmy needs to move away from it's base barebones UI to something like Photon by default, here's why.

    Jump

  • I basically only use mobile apps, so I don't even remember what the desktop UI looks like. But if you say so!

  • What is your Star Wars hot take?

  • Nice. I could totally see it. Andrew Tate stoic shit.

  • I'm kind of curious about this take. What do you mean?
