Nice! I hope that it works out well for you! Mine is still holding up beautifully

Both are insulation foam painted to look like wood. That worked great for the sign, but the post was actually not quite sturdy enough, and broke not long after this photo. Fortunately I was able to set aside the broken bit and just be somewhat more careful with the shorter post, and then I remade the post with a metal core to give it some extra strength and rigidity

Where do we get an invite to this discord server?

I’ve been using the beta for a while and there’s a lot of great stuff in this one!

Hyperbole and other superlatives are very common forms of lying, because “everyone” knows that it isn’t literally true, so if you call it out you look like a pedant, but it still has a greater emotional impact than an honest representation of the situation, so it’s a lie that gives the desired outcome of painting your picture without the risk of reputational damage if you are caught in the lie

Reddit has twice in the past (2017 and 2022, I believe April 1 both times) made r/place - an open canvas where anyone with an account could place a single pixel in a color of their choice every 5 minutes. It's a fascinating social experiment, and was a lot of fun seeing images emerge, and communities spring up around coordinating efforts to make their mark. Doing it again at a somewhat random time only a year after last time is clearly an attempt to distract from the multiple reasons people are currently upset with Reddit, and it also clearly isn't working, judging by the general tenor of anti-spez (Reddit CEO's username) sentiment

Data privacy isn’t to protect you from getting caught doing wrong things, it’s to prevent malicious actors from having the information to manipulate you. You don’t want phishers to have access to your life details that security questions ask about, even if each one is nothing to hide. You don’t want scammers to know where you went to school, who your teachers were, and what clubs you were in to build up a convincing backstory for their facade. You don’t want someone who wants to get something out of you to know who is important to you and threaten or impersonate them. It’s not about having something to hide, it’s about hiding personal details from those with malicious intent

I’d be shocked if they hadn’t heard that before

I think your final statement is backwards. The world was car-free not very long ago in the grand scheme of things. We’ve never been fully vegan. I agree we should eat fewer animal products as well as driving less, but just because it was easier for you doesn’t mean it’ll be easier for society at large.

I had similar issues and deleting and re-adding my accounts fixed it

Is that available in the browser but not the app? If it isn’t in the browser I’d guess the lemmy servers don’t expose it via the API yet

 
 
 
 
 

The c/cosplay community has no image/banner/description/sidebar, and the 'moderator' who created it has no activity anywhere except for setting up several dozen NSFW-titled communities the same 'nothing but a community name' way.

I want this community to exist, and from the response to posts yesterday & today it seems others do as well. Is it possible to request to be made a moderator of that so I can try to cultivate more of a community instead of an unmoderated space?
