Yeah I figured it must not be affecting anyone else since I’m the first to bring it up here. Not sure I can check the version when no part of the PWA loads though, but I think vger.app is supposed to be whatever is the current version

Last I heard it was the hamburger menu.

They need to stop naming things that have no meaningful difference

King Shark is a shark

Damn! We’re in a tight spot.

Well he’s 6.

Don’t worry about the fish

Worry about the cheese and sausage

Are they talking about me?

I’ve said before, but part of my biggest gripe with Lemmy is the process of curating a decent feed. A lot of new users will see the mess of posts in All, including political extremists, an ever growing list of fetish porn communities, and bottom of the barrel shitposts, and they won’t be interested in spending a couple hours blocking and subscribing to things before the feed is usable.

One way to address this is to give instance admins better tools to curate a default subscriptions and block list for their users. Allow admins to create what they think is the most accessible feed, but also allow users to customize it as they see fit.

DS9 is a difficult one because I can’t think of a real episode that would fit, but maybe Hard Time just because of the horrific situation O’Brien is put in?

Empok Nor in season 5 is a good candidate, it has some horror vibes.

I don’t think I can agree with calling Spock the “big city” boyfriend when space is described verbatim as “the final frontier.”

Plus in the Hallmark movies/romcoms, the protagonist (T’Pring) isn’t usually depicted as a cunning strategist, intending to screw over her betrothed.

Stop fucking Larry

I kept thinking “bump key” which is a tool for bypassing locks

Frau Blucher!

Look, I accept a sonic shower.

But I don’t think anyone thought the way to improve the toilet was to make it more “sonic.”

WSL is pretty good these days. Dual boot with Windows is still a pretty risky move with how easily Windows will overwrite your boot loader. I usually recommend you pick one os or the other rather than dual boot, so I’m in favor of WSL or virtualbox. Personally, I have never cared for needing to reboot just to switch operating systems. I tend to stick with one and the second one does nothing but take up disk partition space.

WSL lets you run both simultaneously without rebooting. Virtualbox lets you do the same with extra setup. Virtualbox makes it easier to do GUI setups than WSL does, and the network configuration is a little more obvious.

The best option is to get a second machine so you can run both. If that’s not an option, virtualbox is the better choice for learning. If you just want a Linux environment on your existing setup (similar to using a Mac) then WSL is usually good enough

Yes, my experience with websites over the past few decades.

NSFW stands for “not safe for work.” What do you think it means? It’s pretty straightforward in its meaning.

It isn’t censorship if you can just turn it off and see everything. It’s a warning for people who want to browse at work but not view content that can get them in trouble

Just turn it off and ignore it if it doesn’t apply to you. The rest of us want the tag to be used for its purpose.

Which you can easily turn off if you don’t browse Lemmy at work.

Just because you don’t use the tag for its intended purpose doesn’t mean everyone doesn’t. The tag has a clear purpose, denoted by what it stands for. Most people with adult jobs understand its purpose. Don’t ruin the tag’s purpose for the rest of us by devaluing it

An NSFW tag isn’t censorship, it’s a warning for people at WORK. if you don’t use it for what it’s for, that’s not working people problems, that’s your fault.

Disagreement isn’t an invalid case for voting, despite what Reddit had people believing before.

The voting system is to let people know how many people thought this content was good or not good for the feed. If you shouldn’t downvote for disagreement, then you shouldn’t upvote for agreement either

But nobody has any problem with that
