I’ve pulled one of those wireless trimmers apart when it quit working. I found a rechargeable AA battery soldered in there.

It would be news, and even harder to believe as real news.

Yeah, I’m having trouble seeing this as real news.

Agreed. The tribe mindset on display shows me how users who love reddit as it is are not a good fit for the Fediverse. Maybe less advertising to that crowd is a good thing.

Signal with 2 people who actually moved there with me, standard messages app that came with Samsung for most people, and Facebook Messenger Lite for anything that works better there, or contacting people who I’m not close enough with to get their phone number.

I think if a thing like Place were made for Lemmy, it would need to be so different to fit the values of the Fediverse that it would need a new name. Different rules, different way of interaction, different output.

I use it kind of like WD-40 in a farm setting. It’s messy, but not as messy as grease. It’s effective to coat things that constantly wear and have started to rust. I also rub it on my leather boots to waterproof it for cheap.

All these old memes and the excitement around them have showed me that this is indeed a corner of the internet where I fit in. Hello my people!

RIP Vine.
I laughed so hard when Darius posted this one

Wook at all those chickens!

I agree. A few bigger updates here and there about what’s going on, but not constant reposts to where Lemmy starts looking like Reddit.

This is the best shower thought post I’ve ever seen. Amazing!

Google, duck duck go when I don’t want to see ads for days based on what I’m searching, Bing and Perplexity when I want to avoid doing a series of searches to learn something.
