essentially that is what mythology has been for humanity. Too bad now we just let advertising borrow the techniques without education the population how it works.

Steve Jobs main claim was that visual design and walling people into marriage of software + hardware as a package was important. And based on the loyalty, profits, he seemed to have focused on the right thing.

As quick as Apple could, they went away from the kit Apple I into expensive unique-looking systems. The Lisa being US$9,995 (equivalent to well over $30,000 in 2023)… NeXT was pretty much the same high-end vision.

Bill Gates bailing out Apple so there could be two main companies like Pepsi and Coke, I really don’t get why people don’t criticize that. Microsoft was ahead in the Smartphone area long before the iPhone, if they had not bailed out Apple…

shame.

Yha, I feel it too. I wish the code were able to cope with some internal performance problems, but so far it isn’t there. Have a good day.

it’s exclusive problem to lemmy.world’s DDOS prevention attempts as far as I know, so no idea.

But lemmy.world should primarily communicate via lemmy imo…

I find the same attitude holds for developers who like to hang out in real-time Matrix chat and don’t seem to use Lemmy itself very much and things like code blocks ruining greater-than and less-than slip right into release without much concern.

I’ve found there is a culture within Lemmy developers and long-time operators to discuss in Discord or Matrix chat instead of “eating their own dogfood” and using Lemmy itself to openly discuss Lemmy technical and project issues. These chat services are legendary for keeping things away from search engines and newcomers getting up to speed. Lemmy itself isn’t nearly as search-engine friendly as Reddit was traditionally, it seems like feedback needs to be given as to how important it is to keep things about Lemmy in the eyes of those who actually use Lemmy…

Thoughts?

I haven’t tested with 0.18.3 to see if new features were added to front-end lemmy-ui, but based on my experience with earlier 0.18 releases… the “Sign Up” page of Lemmy needs to have a custom message added for each instance basically introducing the instance from the admins. The experience is pretty bad… on my instance I have registration closed and lemmy-ui still just presents “Sign Up” links and even the form. I think it’s pretty important to get this in the back-end now so that the evolving independent front-ends all support the custom message shown above/below the Sign Up form…

Seems like something that shouldn’t take a lot of coding to get added (admin screen has place to create custom messages like “Legal”) that would be a good lemmy network-wide focus on the newcomer experience.

Fox allowing him hours a day of direct speech…

Once Elon Musk returns him to Twitter, we will have the “bar and grill of all the world’s journalist” for the past 15 years become a black hole of old news story history. The symbolic tactics that are under play are massive. Reality has been rejected on a massive scale via electric media… Dans un sens, c’est le système entier qui, par sa fragilité interne, prête main-forte à l’action initiale. Plus le système se concentre mondialement, ne constituant à la limite qu’un seul réseau

Trump followers can’t even see how the former mayor of NYC has lost his mind. They meet at 4 seasons gardening.

they are called communities here

lemmy.ml is now getting some lemmy.world content

It’s sort of like WiFi and 5G mobile drivers (especially the software driven radios), a lot of proprietary stuff is in the driver that reveals hardware secrets. GPU is also regulated now for export controls from USA-derived technology. With software-driven radios, you see a lot of effort to keep people from using bands outside their national laws.

yha, it said “effectively defedarated” - anyway, I edited out the words entirely so there isn’t any more confusion.

example?

EDIT: Ok, I see a lemmy.ml created a post: https://lemmy.world/post/2463337
So far, I can’t find any new content on lemmy.ml from .world

This post you made, the language you set on it is “中文”.

comments are hidden on some posts I’ve seen, like it says there are 8 but I see 2.

Lemmy has bug in counting too. Comments are often missing because of replication issues between servers. But the most common issue I’v seen with inflated comment numbers is edits being counted as new comments.

I had to look it up… British

Although these days I’m finding I don’t recall as much as I used to, I might have known about it in my past.

You can use markdown codes in titles. Bold, italic, and in my case strikethrough. Two tildes before and after the text.

It is back up
