This can happen in smaller communities too, even on Lemmy. Ego-tripping mods are everywhere.

What do you need someone to be Knowledgeable about? AWS US East 1 is down

Won't work in many other parts of the world, where there are actual street names instead of boring stuff like 15th and 17th

I might be missing the point, but doesn't MS and ALS exist everywhere in the world?

It's just tribalism. This is ingrained in us. Our group good. Other group bad. It's survival.

Doesn't make it right. Or logical. Best we can do is check ourselves when we have these thoughts or perform these actions. And to call out others who do it.

You should have replied to OP, but yeah, I agree

Yeah I played that one too. The new demo is nice, the polish and VO really makes it stand apart from so many other games.

Saying a video is paywalled isn't whinging, but hey, you do you

It's reasonable to assume people here are familiar with Not Just Bikes

You know, there are feeds which just show popular posts. Most of the communities in this feed people would be unfamiliar with if they browsed all/popular.

Ran into this, it's just unbelievably sad.

"I never properly grieved until this point" - yeah buddy, it seems like you never started. Everybody grieves in their own way, but this doesn't seem healthy.

Font Awesome API outage (status.fortawesome.com)

~~Font Awesome is currently experiencing an outage, so many webpages will have a broken UI or even broken functionality if there was any tied to icons (ask me how I know)~~

It has been fixed. Back to work!

Figured I'd make a meme too:

 

I've never seen this before in my life! Fuzzy black petals? Chalice like stem? Very cool and very mysterious.

Edit: I realize this isn't technically a house plant as it is outdoors. Hope that's okay 😅

 

But I'm sure it's just because we humans are so annoying

 

In my language we call them Church Owls instead of Barn Owls because they nest in churches a lot.

 

Went to a demonstration slash workshop today where different owls and other birds of prey were introduced and talked about. Very interesting day!

 

After Profile effects and Avatar decorations, you can now buy Name Plates for your profile.

Honestly, this is the type of monetization that I dislike the least, considering the alternatives. You don't even have to have Nitro afaik, the premium subscription that allows mostly cosmetic perks

 

Discord has begun requiring some users in the United Kingdom and Australia to verify their age through a facial scan before being permitted to access sensitive content. The chat app’s new process has been described as an “experiment,” and comes in response to laws passed in those countries that place guardrails on youth access to online platforms. Discord has also been the target of concerns that it does not sufficiently protect minors from sexual content.
