Thanks, I’ll take a look and give this a try.
Edit: Looks like the subscribed communities dropdown has been added to the latest version of mlmym so perhaps I won’t need it on the old.lemmy.* sites
Awesome, thanks for the update and new features!
Would it be possible to make the script work with old.lemmy.ca (and old.lemmy.world, etc) as well? The lack of access to subscribed communities on the old.* frontend, despite its advantages, makes it borderline unusable.
So far I have to create a new username/password on each instance and subscribe to all the things I want to on that new account.
Why are you needing to do that? You only need one account on one instance and you can subscribe to all the things you want on every instance (assuming that it hasn’t been defederated for some reason). That way you’ll only have one account with one list of subscribed communities instead of differing ones on different accounts.
Now I just need a subscribed community dropdown list like I had with RES
That’s really awesome. The old.lemmy.ca looks surprisingly like old that-other-place.
That’s an interesting perspective! Care to share some data?
Well, of course the data on what our actions (much of which are due to and based upon capitalism) are doing to are environment and climate, and inevitably must lead to given the implicit but incorrect assumption of infinite resources of that system, is everywhere and basically impossible to ignore these days, isn’t it? And, almost as easy to find is the data on other cultures killing themselves off (in the, at the time, limited scope of their part of the planet) due to their actions, such as Easter Island.
Sure, there’s no argument about the benefits for many (me and you included, as demonstrated by the fact we can have the resources and time to post this here) of that system. And it’s true that it works better than many other systems we’ve tried. Absolutely! That does not change the fact that it is by its nature combined with human nature, demonstrably inevitably self-destructive for all. Ignoring that (which, of course, so many folks are very motivated to do) is at our peril. We literally won’t have to worry about what system is better or worse for much longer if this continues.
So, it seems quite clear that arguing that it’s better than the others, for many, for now, is not a useful, rational, or coherent approach, since it is inevitably fatal for all. That is a bit like arguing that it’s ‘better’ to wear small amounts of lead (and other poisonous substances) in cosmetics to attract folks we want to have around us socially (as the elite did, of course, in our history) resulting in the inevitable mid and long term sickness and death of those people instead of finding other solutions.
Instead, it seems far more rational to work really hard to figure out what can work better!
Unfortunately, your reply ignores the increasing, and increasingly destructive and fatal (for all), short, mid, and long term consequences of doing this. Yes indeed, for an unfortunately small overall percentage of all of humanity, we’ve never been wealthier, healthier, and happier. Very true! And for those of us, me included, that are enjoying the fruits of that (middle class and above in the world’s wealthier countries, which is also the demographic that is far more likely to be reading and commenting here) it is really easy to ignore, deny, and pretend those consequences are not rearing their heads both now and in the future. However, for the sake of our species we cannot ignore this.
Well I mean it’s unclear to me that we’re much worse than previous points in history.
That’s interesting, because to me it’s very clear. After all, small isolated pockets of people ruining their economy and the environment they depend on is quite a bit different from all of humanity everywhere doing this.
Because the unintended consequences of capitalism, due to human psychology, are the destruction of the substrate it relies upon and that humans require for survival (as is so very demonstrable right now), and (again, due to human psychology and our tribal and hierarchical nature) the increasing imbalance of wealth (and therefore power) to a select few (who are generally making the former issue far worse).
It’s almost certainly hiding vents or pipes that needed to be routed there. As for the carpeting, somebody no doubt thought it would be cool, or else if for sound dampening.
I think it simply makes sense to leave it up to users to block this if they don’t like it. This approach allows for folks to achieve what they want without forcing this decision onto others.
Do people value me posting this each time we upgrade?
Absolutely yes!
What if the discussion is intended to be about the issues with that source, and the article is being linked as an example?
I convinced another user to invite me over IRC. That’s probably the worst medium for convincing someone that you’re human
Hahah, I’ll say!
How would you design a test that only a human can pass, but a bot cannot?
Very simple.
In every area of the world, there are one or more volunteers depending on population / 100 sq km. When someone wants to sign up, they knock on this person’s door and shakes their hand. The volunteer approves the sign-up as human. For disabled folks, a subset of volunteers will go to them to do this. In extremely remote area, various individual workarounds can be applied.
WTF, I ain’t watching an hour long video on a stupid fridge! I’ll just watch the first few minutes and see what’s up…

One hour later…
Okay, that was really interesting. I really love this channel.
TIL the Technology Connections guy is on Lemmy via Mastadon.
And that’s awesome!
…Kernel patch at age 4. Sigh… What have I done with my life?
