Yay, finally more non-SUV electric cars.

Oh, it's also made in China. And it's a rebranded Chinese car. The traditional manufacturers really are falling behind in the electric transition.

The biggest problem with Discord is that its an information black hole. Its not properly searchable and not indexed by search engines.

Discord is fine for casual chat, but horrible when used for forum-type discussions and even worse when used for documentation.

You see the same problems being discussed and solved again and again, but you cant just "link" someone the solution like you could with a forum thread cause its spread out over 3-10 chat messages that are interleaved in-between other topics being discussed in the same room

Anything of long-term value for the project (forum-type discussions, documentation etc) should not recide in Discord

Sounds like the FDA should be involved here somehow..

Teslas have internal driver monitoring cameras? :O

It might be relatively new, but I'd say Subnautica.

It was such a breath of fresh air when it came out, and instilled both such a sense of wonder at all the vibrant lifeforms of 4546B and also instilling such dread upon encountering reapers or diving deeper than ever before. I still remember the mixed sense of wonder and unease upon discovering the Jellyshroom caves for the first time

Protip: KDE's Dolphin is available for Windows.

The Windows integration isn't perfect, but it's very useful nonetheless. Multiple tabs and the Ctrl+I filter alone makes it worthwhile.

On a related note: KDE's Kate text editor is also available on Windows and it works GREAT! So great that KDE eV has published it on the Windows store, making it easy to install

The joys of discovering DRG for the first time and gleefully learning all the mechanics. Extra props for the careful and methodical test to verify if the game has Friendly Fire

Agreed, that sounds perfect for right now.

A certain community I'm subscribed to is very active right now, to the point of almost drowning out all other committees in my feed. A "temporary hide" would be very welcome

Yeah spez is just the figure head, if he got replaced nothing would be resolved.

It's not Fuck Spez, it's Fuck Reddit Inc.

It's still disapointing to see media misrepresent the reason for the protests. Nobody went up in arms when Reddit announced they'll charge for API access, which was announced in April. The protests started because they're charging a bazillion dollars, aka "the fuck you price" effectively banning 3rd party apps without actually banning 3rd party apps

And the "strike" got extended due to the extremely poor handling of the protests from Reddit, like slandering the Apollo dev

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised

[-] klangcola@reddthat.com 35 points 1 year ago

Its so obvious now, Apollo and RiF are saved!

Extortionist API providers hate this one weird trick!

Is this credible? If so isn't kinda huge?

So Twitter continues to fuck around.. soon they'll find out

Some instances disable downvoting. Is this intended to be for communities on that instance or users on that instance, or both?

I noticed while reading Memes@lemmy.ml ( https://reddthat.com/post/2053 ) that some commenters were talking about being downvoted, but I have no downvote button. Because downvoting is disabled on my instance?

How does it work the opposite way? Are users from lemmy.ml allowed to downvote on posts for example beehaw (who also has disabled downvoting)

Many instances say to keep language settings as "undetermined" otherwise you won't see most posts Example: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/59161 Example: https://reddthat.com/settings

Yet when I try to post a comment it will fail with language_not_allowed because initially there is no language selected. So I need to click on the "Select language" drop-down and choose English (the only option)

Actually in the Lemmy web interface (at least on my instance reddthat.com) the Post button will spin endlessly with no indication of what's wrong. Using the Jerboa Android app there's is the very brief error message language_not_allowed, and the comment disappears so I have to type it out again! On the Jerboa app there's also no option to select the language for the comment, so I can't use it to comment at all.

I experienced this language_not_allowed error while commentating on gaming@beehaw.org and lemmy_support@lemmy.ml , both English language communities

So how is this language setting supposed to work?

Is the language selected for posting comments the same setting as the profile setting, which the links recommend to keep as "undetermined" to be able to see (English language) posts?

Have i encountered a bug? Specific to my instance or Lemmy in general?
