At first I was... wow, no shit! Open source Winamp!

But then I went through the Github issues (because, 6 hours since first commit and already 5 issues open?). As someone else put it, "This has got to be the most embarrassing open-sourcing i've seen to date.". The licensing is a mess, the coverup is a dumpster fire. By tomorrow this is going to be as viral as Twitter's "open sourcing" of its recommendation algorithm they did last year. Not sure if I should make coffee or popcorn in the morning.

‘no immediate timeline’ toward monetization

Data is beautiful, the legend and title are awful.

Added an extra shelf to my shoe rack today. After measuring, cutting, drilling, even made little notches below the shelf, barely putting the shelf in because of hinges in the way, vacuuming the mess, halfway packing up my tools and call it a successful day and... doors won't close because of the hinges on the doors hitting the shelf. Moved it 5mm lower after drilling another set of holes.

They also don't really care about credit ratings.

Exactly. Credit scores are a scam and an incentive into having a credit card and overdrafting.

Instead, there are laws that restrict you from buying or mortgaging at a monthly cost higher than x% of your monthly income

It's called "level of indebtedness" or "financial burden" and it's typically 40% of net monthly income. So you cannot get a loan that would put your total monthly installments (counting all of your credits) above 40% of your income.

😂 That's what Muskrat wanted you to believe. Engineers and people with more than 2 brain cells have debunked the Hyperloop idea for years. Here's one of them from 7 years ago.

If you define "stupid" as "lacking critical thinking skills", then I agree.

So far I'm enjoying Liftoff, it's superior to Jerboa and the dev is a god moving so fast with its development.

That being said, here are my thoughts so far:

  • There's a bug when sometimes when I hit back from a post, on the home tab the keyboard pops out
  • I miss the downvote count for posts and comments (yeah, I've found the "nerd" section, but it's just cumbersome) - it could be an interface option in the settings (I understand if some people don't want their feed cluttered with that info)
  • I miss the menu option to block a community directly from the 3 dots on a post in the home tab that Jerboa has. Currently I have to click the community in the post title. The quicker way would be appreciated especially in this Lemmy starting phase when a lot of new communities are created and we tailor our interests

Found it on Reddit. It's most probably incomplete, but it has a "Suggest link" button.

The rules for submitting a link are (as of recent):

  • No links to communities who break their service's ToS or share any illegal content (this should be self-explanatory).
  • Link must be an alternative to an existing subreddit. I don't see sub.rehab as a general fediverse directory (for now).
  • Community must have a minimal amount of activity. I am thinking - at least 3 posts that are not submitted by the community's moderator team. This does not apply for communities that are verified and proven as official replacements of the original subreddit

Am I the only one not being able to use a controller in first-person games that usually require a mouse to look around / shoot / etc?

This is the reason I avoided buying and playing FPS games or ie Portal, BotW, etc. I find it clunky and first game I tried with sticks on the controller I dumped after the first 10 minutes and switched to playing on a PC, regretting spending the money.

I just prefer scrollers or fixed-cam games for this reason.

Maybe I'm old, but I don't get the 30-minus year-olds being so agile with it.

Do you have any tips on improving myself on this?

Yumi Arai - Hikō-ki Gumo (www.youtube.com)

I've learned of Yumi Matsutoya (松任谷由実) / Yumi Arai by real name from the anime The Wind Rises (Kaze Tachinu).

I don't normally watch anime, but big studios like Gibli and directors like Hayao Miyazaki are the exception. A few songs from Yumi made to my playlist since then.

Fishmans got me into Japanese music. This live especially is legendary - 45 minutes of continuous live play, just like the album.

Obligatory:

  • lights out
  • eyes closed
  • headphones on
  • enjoy!

Given that

  • there is no auto-preview / download of youtube thumbnails for posts
  • the post URL must be the youtube link; uploading an image replaces the URL with the one if the image, so no bueno

What is the format to embed the thumbnail of the youtube video (downloaded manually) in the body of the post and also link it to the video itself?

The reason I'd like to include a preview is that I find it hard to find and click the external link for a post. Sometimes I don't even realize it's a post with a link (both in the listing or after opening the post) - Reddit apps (at least in the 3rd party Slide app that I used) made it clear what type of post it was by clearly specifying Video / Image / Link / Self.text etc

I highly recommend Ben Eater's channel. He's a good teacher, took his time and dedicated months to build quality content in video format, which is a rarity on Youtube these days.
