Can you clarify? If my instance doesn't have custom emojis, it's safe?

Actually, clicking those links actually works! Hooray!

I was under the impression that you were supposed to be able to search for "!hobbit_art@hobbit.world" in the community search bar and find things there. Now that I know it works, I've found that simply modifying the community url also works. So going to: https://lemmy.world/c/hobbit_art@hobbit.world actually jumps me right to it.

So, looks like it was already working. Thanks!

The Curta calculator is a marvel of engineering made by a guy who developed it while imprisoned by Nazis.

You specify numbers on the side and spin the handle up top to add them. You multiply numbers by specifying one number on the side then spinning the handle and rotating the collar.

Hard to describe via text. But there are lots of YouTube videos about it.

This particular model is special because it's a cutaway model meant for demonstrating how it works internally. It's a rare version of an already rare calculator and I absolutely love it.

The Curta feels so tactile in the way it works. You can feel the numbers being added when you rotate the handle and feel the zip of the mechanical parts interacting.

Whoa, that shrug guy loses his backslash arm in Lemmy too? It's a reddit flashback!

Can you repair Curtas? I think there's a niche market demand for that. I'd certainly want it if mine ever broke.

The Connect app allows you to hide posts based on keywords. Maybe add "reddit" to that?

I am surprised a story like this has a happy ending.

Looks partially resolved. Got rid of road markings, but incorrect blue left signs remain.

There are so many responses for Bitwarden that I am suspicious. Is it just that popular, or is this some sort of astroturfing? I didn't think Lemmy was popular enough to attract that, but who knows.

Well then, I unironically want that!

Too much arguing in discussion forums and not enough relaxed fun.

I assumed you were talking about snoring.

Meh. I was there 15 years. I'm not missing anything by being here instead. Heck, I feel like here is the more exciting place to be!
