When the Daily Mail says anybody 'faces fierce backlash', they mean a fierce backlash that they're about to stir up.
Ranked by complexity:
- Demystify the universe
- Demystify the human brain
- Demystify our sed scripts
Think we should maybe walk before we run here.
I'm not some arrogant cyclist, insisting on my right to be somewhere - I use what is often the only road that takes me where I want to go. Personally, I find windy b-roads a bit scary too, and there's a downhill I have to take that's got a 'cycle lane' painted on, with cars parked on the left of me (so if anyone opens their door, I'm dead), cars in a narrower-than-usual lane to the right of me, and a diversion onto the pavement at the bottom, with a bus stop for the unwary to crash into. So basically every segment of a cycle journey is terrifying one way or another, and I just have to not think about it too much or I'd never go anywhere.
When I'm cycling on dual carriageways, it's interesting to realise that some drivers overtake me by moving to straddle the line between lanes ('fine'), some drivers move into the other lane ('great'), and some don't move at all, demonstrating that even when there's a whole other lane to use, they're happy to skim past me. And by 'interesting', I mean 'often terrifying'.
Or it's 'lemmyworld' or 'announcements' or the foreign-language equivalent of 'main / meta / home'. I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm just moaning that it's not easier. While I'm complaining: a flag to indicate that it's a 'testing' community would be nice too.
It's a shame that there isn't anything in a Community's info (for the Lemmyverse crawler to pick up on) that indicates that it's a 'meta' one for the instance (like [email protected]
is) so it'd be easy to filter out.
Yeah - if you don't like a post you 'reduce' it, and if you do then you 'thicken' it.
Only kidding: they use 'favourites'
They call them 'reduces'
I'm guessing it's an artifact of them supporting both platforms like Lemmy (who's users make Threads and Comments in Magazines) and platforms like Mastodon (who's users make Posts and Replies in Microblogs).
If you don't like that, you're really not going to like what they call downvotes ...
What Peertube needs is for other Fediverse platforms to build in a filter so only posts which contain video are displayed.
Latest PeerTube vids available on PieFed - should be quite handy hopefully, because - as you say - they normally get buried by any sort method that isn't 'New'
Season 1 is - the other seasons have their moments but risk circling the drain of their own premises. I think it would probably have been better to move Moss behind the camera, producing and directing, and focus on a new handmaid each season. I can see why they got addicted to close-ups of her looking miserable though - she is very good at that.
You're not kidding. Arriving from the UK into Sydney airport - the heat was unbelievable, but when I was in Melbourne, there was a question of 'wait? is this weather ... shit?'
