Do you have a better source than this jpeg?
Our vestigial tail is the coccyx, and animals with tails have bones in them. Why would a vestigial tail grow at the base of the neck?

You might not know that because this “spice” only exists in the US and I just learned it myself, but pumpkin spice has nothing to do with pumpkin flavor. It’s called that way because it’s the mix of spices used in pumpkin pies: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, ginger and cloves.
But there already is a device that answer that specific need, so it wouldn’t make sense for the Raspberry 5 to replace it.
Isn’t the Pi 3B still available for that kind of job?
I just can’t get enough of that Mediterranean lentil dahl.
It was designed to blend in with the search results. It’s the same shitty design as the sponsored results appearing like they were the first few results of your Google or Bing search, or ads appearing as unread emails in Gmail or Hotmail.
It is an ad, and also a really shitty practice to display it exactly like it was the first result of your research.
I kind of like Windows 11, but even the Pro version is riddled with ads. The search banner in the taskbar has them regularly, there’s a large number of falsely installed Microsoft Store apps in the Start menu (which get downloaded when you click them, like Netflix, Disney+, Spotify, Instagram, I think also TikTok and I’m certainly forgetting some), the whole “news” menu on the left side of the screen is just that too. The Windows 10 default Mail app (which I think is close to be the perfect email app on Windows) is also being retired in favor of Outlook, the free version of which has an ad displayed either as a banner at the bottom of your mails list, or as an unread email at the top of it. This prompted me to enjoy the Thunderbird update, which isn’t as good but has no ads. And that’s not even counting Edge, the shortcut of which gets added back to the desktop on a regular basis, which redirects all HTML help pages and searches to itself instead of using the default browser.
You might not have seen any ads on your W11 computer, but it’s probably either because you have a system-wide adblocker, installed scripts to remove some of the most invasive bloat, or simply hand pick and manage carefully all apps and and settings on your systems (that’s what I do, but when I do I make it so I won’t see it again). Or you don’t notice them as ads, which is sadly very possible.
Yes for stupid stuff like turning off the network device, to cut access to the internet. Windows finds by itself that the network device is disconnected and reconnects it by itself. Granted it’s not much, but it’s as complicated to find that menu than to run that utility.
It’s complicated to talk about the lore of Zelda games, the Venn diagram of the lore of the game of that series is the Olympics logo.
I don’t really understand how that would work. I’m on Instagram because I follow some specific artists, collectives, companies, labels, etc., and secondarily for friends. If those are not on Pixelfed, what is there to follow?
Although Lemmy suffers of quite a content draught on less populated communities, it still works like Reddit since you follow topics, not people.
Jerboa is the most feature-complete, but it crashes pretty often and it adopts new Lemmy API versions a bit early, so all instances don’t always have the time to get updated. Besides, the look is simple and functional, but I can’t say it’s pretty.
So far, I really like Thunder’s looks, interface and UX. It’s not very intuitive, but the swipe-based gesture system is really promising, and so far it’s also the prettiestt. It still lacks many important features (editing posts and comments), but they’re not essential enough to prevent me from using them, and I’ve been mostly browsing with that in the last few days.
Liftoff looks really good as well. As others said, it looks a lot like Infinity, which was my go-to Reddit app. However, I don’t like the dark theme options we have so far: dark is too light, and AMOLED is a single black screen, which makes posts hard to distinguish at a glance. Once we get more theming options, I might switch to Liftoff.
I also wonder if the Reddit admins might have started some kind of marketing campaign to build the consensus in their favor of their own platform. There have been several instances of third parties using social media to do that kind of things, the hivemind makes it easy enough that the word of mouth is going to spread when it’s high enough on the main subs.
That might be granting them more PR credit than they’ve shown in the last few weeks, though.
Twitter has also seen a mass exodus in the last few months in favor of a more open platform. And there’s a real difference about Facebook in that on Facebook, you connect with people you know, so it’s important to be on the same platform as them. It’s harder for someone to leave the platform unless most of their friends move as well. Unsurprisingly, Messenger and Instagram are also really efficient in that regard.
This is not so true on Reddit, where people interacting usually don’t know one another. What matters is the community, and communities can be smaller.
Well, that’s how I use those platforms anyway, so obviously take this with a grain of salt.
Most 3rd party Reddit apps will be gone, and Reddit have shown willingness to move to a far more closed model than it used to be. Mods were and are not the only ones to leave.
It makes sense that you’d be waiting for r/Godot
It is. I was wondering about Hermit’s business license and business model (free app? Free app with subscription-based premium? Anything else?), and this tells a lot. So, I see the upside of using this to replace some potentially invasive apps. However, I don’t it being that useful to replace open-source, less invasive apps.
Slide for Reddit is FOSS (GPL 3.0), although development stopped a while ago. However, since it’s FOSS, it should be 100% doable to fork the app to adapt it to Lemmy and since it’s GPL 3.0, I believe Slide for Lemmy would have to be at least as permissive (so FOSS as well).
I didn’t know Tom Zarek was a returning actor from the original BGS series! And the actor of Captain Apollo, no less.
