That’d be gross. But dogs actually sweat through their paws if you didn’t know!

lackthought , to fediverse in Lemmy instance with 2 alternative frontends.
@lackthought@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I’m assuming you’d need an account specifically on endlesstalk.org to use these frontend?

I’m already moderating a few communities so completely migrating to a new instance is probably not worth it for me (and I’d prefer to keep my sdf.org connections)

I’d love it if these alternative sites could use a login from a different instance somehow, basically operating in the same way a mobile app does

lemmy OP ,
@lemmy@endlesstalk.org avatar

Yeah, for the frontends setup on endlesstalk.org you would need an account there, but the developers of the frontends have setup their own, where you can use an instance you want.

For Alexandrite there is alexandrite.app and for Mlmym there is mlmym.org

cool I’ll check them out, thanks!

I completely stopped using reddit but that old.reddit.com interface is still the best imo

Today , to nostupidquestions in Is it worth paying the reaminder of my car loan off?

Pay it off. New car loans should not be more than 5 years and used should not be more than 3. You risk hitting a point where you’re paying payments and repairs at the same time.

thevoyage , to nostupidquestions in What would happen if I were driving on 5th gear at 120 km/h and then switched to first gear?

It’s called a “money shift”, and, assuming there isn’t a gate or interlock in the transmission to stop you, you will massively over rev the engine, and destroy it.

There’s a few videos on YouTube of it happening.

itsgallus , to gaming in What is the best place to get to know more about the game without getting completely spoiled?

I’ve been wanting to create a “catch up” resource for any sort of media, but I don’t have the time nor the skills to do so. I imagine, though, that within a few years you can tell Chat GPT the last thing that happened in the story and it can bring you up to speed.

bh11235 ,

I think ChatGPT can do a decent job of this already. Example.

exscape , to technology in I’m considering setting up a server for various uses, advice?

A different kind of advice: be vigilant with security updates, and remove services you're not using.
Using insecure software makes it likely you'll get hacked sooner or later, especially if automated scans can find your server. (For example because it's listed in a search engine, or part of some network like the fediverse).

tristar , to nostupidquestions in Would a cat-toy laser pointer distract a pilot in broad daylight?

Cat toy? Probably not. Stronger lasers can absolutely mess up the pilot’s eyesight and put you in jail, but a low-powered one is unlikely to cause harm. Still, never shine anything at an airplane.

I like this because it reminds me of Lemmings.

My mum has been a single mum her whole life, and when I was a kid she couldn’t always get the most popular games but I believe she was told Lemmings would be very good. She got an entire box set, including a Christmas edition! At first I was of course distraught, until my brother installed it on his PC and I would constantly ask to play it. So many hours went into it, and it’s not the first time my mum had really surprised me with something I didn’t know I’d end up appreciating so much. I think I still have it somewhere…

If you’re able to share that memory with her please do so. It’s very nice!

JadenSmith ,

Thank you, I often do. I sometimes show her the Pacman game she got me whilst abroad, thinking it was Pokémon Yellow, and reminding her that I actually really enjoyed it and wouldn’t have known about all the various collections of Pacman if she didn’t follow my very crude description of Pikachu (which thinking back, could have been describing Pacman as well lmao).

She’s going through chemo treatments, so it’s more important to remind her of these things. For me at least.

rayman30 , to nostupidquestions in Would a cat-toy laser pointer distract a pilot in broad daylight?

If the pilot is a cat, I’m sure it would

skbo , to selfhosted in Recommend me an RSS feed reader

I use miniflux which is minimalist, yet has a lot of features.

As miniflux serves the Fever API, I can use nice RSS clients that sync across all my devices (like Reeder for iOS and macOS).

SamXavia , to showerthoughts in Reddit will, at some point, be automatically installed on some phones likes Facebook and Twitter.
@SamXavia@lemmy.world avatar

If Reddit keeps going the same way Twitter seems to be, then there won’t be a Reddit app for much longer.
