And what can we do to make the Internet a more safe and privacy friendly place and replace the ad business by something less unpleasant ?

I give you a cozy chair and you are now going to watch the beginning of earth til today with all your senses. You won’t age, everything freezes. But once you reach this minute you will get a million dollars....

What are everyone’s thoughts on bots like piped bot and tdlr bot

Is it just me or does the Duolingo bird looks sad/old/tired? What happened to the previous icon?

I am not an atheist, I genuinely believe that God exists and he is evil, like a toddler who fries little ants with a lens.

I think it was on Ben G Thomas on YT that I’ve seen academic references saying various ways dinosaurs likely sounded like birds in their vocalizations. Do you know of any scientifically grounded reconstructions of possible sounds?...

Neither DuckDuckGo nor Google are particularly good at it, since you can’t do something like site:reddit.com. How do you guye search or is this just an unsolved problem?

Here’s an example from me...

I just recently learned that this is a thing that exists. I’ve had a couple audiology tests that use these weird headphones with firm rubber balls where normally expect to see the speakers; the rubber balls sit on your temporal bone, and there’s a metal bar the wraps around your head connecting them and giving them pressure...

Hi everyone! I came here for interest to try reddit-like social networks. I’m used to the concept of microblogging (and telegram), and I’m wondering how to post my own here, as well as search for interesting posts and people/communities?

Title, pretty much. I’m in a couple of niche communities, and thought I should expa d into more generalized communities. All things tech are of interest, really....

Please be kind as this topic is a pain point for me. I’m feeling the pressure of finding my significant other because I’m at an age where it seems like everyone in my social media feed is getting engaged, married, or having kids. The issue is I have a huge transition coming up and will have to move in a few months to a place...

21M, my life right now is such a mess....

Like where is the goto psych/CS UI 101 class/book/YT that over simplifies but grounds someone with no background or previous knowledge? Maybe something like the “Blender Doughnut” of great UI design?...

When posting from Lemmy in my profile I can look for all of my posts but when I reply to a comment from, let’s say, a Mastodon account is not shown as my post because it was created from another account. Is there any way to link my accounts, at least in Lemmy, to show that all posts from a different account belong to the same...

Am I the only one who gets to the self checkout and is compelled to finish as soon as humanly possible?...

In recent days we have been giving home to a black kitten less than a month old yet to be named, the thing is that we already have a cat at home. My cat “Rubia” has been with us for 13 years now, beyond having lost her eyesight due to age, she is very healthy. But since the new kitty arrived I have seen her very stressed....

So I was recently in a Clark’s outlet and at least the men’s shoes seemed obviously a victim of shrinkflation, ie they felt a lot cheaper and lesser quality. Which makes sense as they’re still doing 2 for 99 or I guess men’s just went up to 109. But they were 50 dollars each at the outlets back in 05, so they simply have...
