I prefer this recap to what I remember from disco. I’m going to start remembering it like this now too.

Indeed it is. Looks like I can browse Lemmy safely in public again. Cheers!
I kept getting random lemmynsfw posts showing up in my subscribed feeds despite not being subscribed to the instance or the communities, some of which were really… specific.
My workaround was blocking the instanceEdit: Whelp, that didn’t work. Guess I’m not browsing Lemmy on the bus today.Edit 2: Setting my default view away from and back to subscribed sems to have solved it.Edit 3: It was not solved, i found out on the bus…As I’m browsing Lemmy on public transport to and from work I’m not interested in this type of content showing up in my feed, and even if I was I was not the target audience for the communities showing up.
While I agree with this sentiment, some places are easier to just avoid, be it Reddit, x, or wherever.
If you go on a tankie instance to discuss the finer points of day trading, you’re gonna have a bad time, and might be better off going somewhere else, provided they don’t ban you.
Personally I just block annoyances and move on, no point in me getting upset at people spamming in German in English communities, and I’ve got no interest in interacting with it.
Read this in the voice of Samuel L. Jackson. 10/10. Would recommend.

Programming@programming.dev•What are some cool and obscure data structure you know of?
2·25 days agoFrom just the name my mind instantly thought of the conflict as “conflict diamonds”, and I began to wonder what constitutes a conflict free boolean or integer.
If anyone wants to take a crack at writing up why primitives are unfortunate, and we should move on to new “conflict free data types”™ I will cheer you on!
Also, very interesting read about actual conflict free replicated days types. Cheers!

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What content filters are you using to clean up your Lemmy feed?
3·25 days agoI only show communities I’m subscribed to explicitly in my feed. I also block users like it’s going out of fashion.
Anyone spamming things I don’t care for in my feed, trolls, rage baters, or just people posting shit I have no desire to interact with our think about on the regular.
I’m using Lemmy mainly as an aggregator for memes, cat pictures, sci-fi, comics, and the likes, and like to be able to browse it on the bus or similar without worrying about what might show up.
If it’s not for me, I’m most likely in the wrong community. If that’s not the case I just block the poster. Nothing personal, it just doesn’t jive with my desired experience for any number of reasons, so I just block it, ignore it, and move on.
Lemmy is for everyone, and I can’t expect all of them to want the same out of it as me, so I can’t, won’t, and shouldn’t do anything else about it.

GOG@lemmy.world•GOG is getting acquired by its original co-founder: What it means for youEnglish
2·26 days agoSome games require more than just the files on disk, at least with older games, they set some properties in the registry or some such. How gog or heroic get around it I don’t know, but ah actual installer is guaranteed to give the same result every time.
For most people with stable internet and using the launcher this isn’t really an issue, but I imagine someone rural, on the ISS, part of the Atlantis expedition, or what have you, would enjoy to have a surefire way of getting their heroes 3 up and running
Not a use case for everyone, but for some it’s invaluable.

Nice try, they recently upgraded to led lights.
I decided long ago that Christmas and birthdays just wasn’t for me. Easy enough when I live alone.
I don’t decorate, don’t eat anything out of the ordinary, don’t dress up. It’s just a normal day, that passes without much ado. Hate is too strong a word, I just ignore it.

1·1 month agoVery nice. I do tend to live under a rock at times, so he must have snuck by when I wasn’t looking.
Thank you so much for the recommendation! I’ll definitely check him out!




I just watched the latest Starfleet Academy. I’ve not made up my mind on it yet, so I can’t recommend it for other reasons than it being Star Trek. I would recommend watching it before making up one’s mind about it though.
As for something I would recommend, Journey Quest, on YouTube, recently came out with new content, and is well worth the watch.
