Do ghouls sleep in coffins? I thought that was just vampires.

Surprise : his supporters don’t care

You make it sound like Israel hates everything about Palestine, when clearly they love their land.

Use rsync and only upload the files that have changed.

There’s a good chance that’s what our issue was. It really struggled with a Java monolith project. Compiling was slow, but Mercurial was painfully slow on NTFS while ext4 was blazing fast.

Been on Macs at work for a few years and don’t plan on going back, but wish I knew this back then!

I meant in Windows 🙂. I guess Windows XP, in particular.

I think it’s the other way around, but same problem.

Not me, I’m getting fatter.

And Thunderbird for the email portion. Yes, web and email were in the same application.

But I was just about to be a millionaire 😭😭😭

At least he’s getting his.

I don’t believe it.

There is the autobahn… thankfully the US already has what is probably the best highway system in the world, so NOT a reason to elect Trump.

Replying to this just so people are less likely to accidentally scroll past.

Completely agree, of course. I do miss Web 1.0, when you had to go to IRC, usenet, etc, for the “social” part.

“Lean” is a terrifying word. Shouldn’t they be pushing against it?

Yes! Thanks, I had started to mention that and ended up with a huge run on sentence and it didn’t make it through the editing process. 😅.

BMI is the best measure we have for statistical purposes (i.e., a population) because it’s been around for 50(?) years and is what is often used in studies, so you can compare one study to another using BMI.

It’s also not terrible for a population because it averages out. But for an individual it is definitely not a good measure because there are way too many other variables that matter.

If you do want to get into it, I suggest starting with Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks.

Well, I started watching Star Trek TOS so I would get more of the memes on tenforward@lemmy.world 😅.

I do like to browse by all instead of subscribed, which is a good way to discover more communities. Of course, I do have to block a lot of communities to avoid stuff I’m not interested in… which is basically just stuff in languages I don’t understand and furries (speaking of niche communities, plenty of those). But I even enjoy seeing local posts from places in another country.

Ya, I think the key is not to focus on niche communities, but more generic communities. e.g., someone mentioned a dead Morrowind community, but it’s probably better to invest in a more generic gaming or maybe even pcgaming community.

Lemmy just isn’t that big and can’t support many niche communities.

That being said, I definitely see some niche communities regularly popup in my feed, so there are some active ones!
