Can someone tell me how to block instances?

Can't yet, just have to block individual communities. Kbin users can block domains, but that's not the same as blocking instances. For example, you can block imgur.com to avoid seeing posts that link to imgur.

solstice , in How journalist view modern gamers

I tried playing league of legends for the first time a few months ago. I haven’t done any gaming in easily a decade or two and figured why not.

Like many (most, all?) games are now it was so damn complicated. There’s hundreds of characters, infinite matchups, all these different potions and powerups etc. I thought I had the basics down but the other players told me very clearly how much room for improvement there is in my game. I feel like every game I’ve seen and heard of lately is like that.

Back in the day we’d get the guy from the left side of the screen to the right, and sometimes you had to jump over something to get there. Where are those games now? I’m busy and don’t have time to get a phd in your game’s lore, I just want something simple and mindless to unwind.

Fubar91 ,

LoL is a esport competitive game, so it definitely breads a competitive player base. Not every game is made for every single person to enjoy. Which is fine.

Plenty of games are released daily that you could instead play that match your wants. If you give more insight outside of “just wanting an easy game”, I could sort out list of reccomdations and send them your way.

solstice ,

I think the last new game I played was Mario Wii in 2012. It was challenging and engaging but easy to learn with a good walkthrough easing you in with the basics.

I still play C&C Red Alert now and then. Just dusted off my joystick and installedX-Wing alliance (upgrade at least, not the OG version from 1999). That’s pretty much it. All the other games I’ve seen recently are either way too complicated (LoL) or just not engaging enough (Mario Kart for Switch for example, it’s fine for a bit with friends but I just don’t see myself playing it a lot.)

Oh, and I’ve been playing a lot of chess lately, currently rated around 1600 ELO.

I think it’s very possible I’m just not a gamer…

C_Leviathan , in THIS IS BEYOND REAL

Gaslighting is when you convince someone their lives experiences aren’t real, not when you don’t confirm or deny someone’s guess.

euphoria OP ,
@euphoria@kbin.social avatar

i think nearly everyone is aware that the word gaslighting has been used improperly online ever since it became popular.

anyway this meme implies that you slyly try to convince them that their guess is wrong and plant doubt in their mind so that the movie's twist will still hold up. i still agree gaslighting isn't the proper word to use.

C_Leviathan ,

You know what? You’re totally right. It was closer to the definition than I had figured.

Methylman , in Survival of the Fittest

I sort/separate so technical gear (hiking gear and other polyester stuff) doesn’t get washed with detergent but don’t see the need to use the more expensive stuff (non chlorine bleach) on regular clothes

Agent641 ,

Does the detergent affect the water shedding of polyester?

Methylman ,

Oh-i wasn’t expecting anyone to ask a follow-up… I think so, tbh it feels like every website says differently and when you read through it’s because they are all advertising a some brand of cleaner.

Ideally you want the polyester wicking moisture away from you and imo detergent always leaves a waxxy-feeling residual layer that is seemingly less noticeable on clothes made of cotton or other natural fibers.

mozzarellamommy , in Triangle (not to scale)
@mozzarellamommy@waveform.social avatar

Sum of interior angles of a triangle should be 180° so this is not a triangle. It is a square or maybe 2 triangles

Lorgres ,

The 180° angle is just a (really weird) way of representing a long, straight, line. The rest of the angles add up to 180°.

audiomodder , in Triangle (not to scale)

I know, shitpost and all, but this is possible in non-Euclidean geometry

radix , (edited )
@radix@lemm.ee avatar

Why does it have to be non-Euclidean geometry? It seems like it would work fine as a regular (normal? Euclidean?) 30-30-60 triangle.

Edit: I can’t read. 30-60-90 triangle.

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA ,
@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world avatar

60 ノ༼ ຈل͜ຈノ ༽ here you dropped this

fishos ,

A triangle with 90° angles, yes.

But not a four sided TRIANGLE. That itself is a contradiction.

TheDankHold ,

One of the angles is 180 though so imagine what the two sides joined there would look like. After all this isn’t to scale.

fishos ,

You can't make a 3 sided object with 4 sides. It's no longer a triangle and is a square. It's the definitions themselves. Non-euclidian geometry would allow the angles to equal more than 180°, but not to "add a side".

W1Z_4RD ,

“Not to scale”

. .

Incase that is still a mystery to you, that means that the drawing is visually inconsistent with the finished part. That 180 degree ‘corner’ is effectively a straight line, if drawn to scale.

fishos ,

Lmao that IS NOT how "scale" works. Proportions stay the same.

simplecyphers ,

Technically you are “right” but you are also being obtuse (pun intended).

If you could bare to stretch your mind, and realize “not to scale” means “trust the numbers, not the graphic” you could in turn, realize that it is, in fact, 3 sided.

Every side of every shape is made up of infinite 180 degree angles and 2 angles that are different. Every. Single. One.

mozzarellamommy ,
@mozzarellamommy@waveform.social avatar

My school used to put a right angled triangle in the test and then say “not to scale” and then the angles would actually make it an isosceles or whatever. I agree with you that scale should keep proportions but yeah for some reason It’s not common knowledge.

simplecyphers ,

Mathematicians dont want to to know this one strange trick, hide a secret corner of 180 degrees in any triangle to instantly make it a quadrilateral, without even changing the shape!!

Did they take a bag of popcorn to thanksgiving? Because, I’m getting ‘they took a bag of popcorn to their mom’s thanksgiving diner’ vibes here.

Any follow up?

GlitchSir ,

Found this on Bing

Kevin came later than Aunt Sheryl and her husband. I am sitting, waiting patiently. As Kevin walks into the room, Aunt Sheryl looks horrified and goes completely silent. Her husband asks if everything is okay and greets Kevin courteously. Throughout dinner, my aunt acts super suspicious and Kevin acts uneasy too. Her husband, bless his stupid soul, doesn’t see any of this and starts actually bonding (the stupid man!). Soon after we finish dinner, we all decide to drink some beers and watch the game. Aunt Sheryl complains of a headache and retreats to the guest bedroom. Kevin also wants to leave but Aunt Sheryl’s husband goads him into staying for a bit longer. Kevin reluctantly agrees.

I thought u/shittymorph came with us for a second.

I'm probably just yelling into the void but...

Hey @shittymorph did you make it?

ThtCrzyBstrd ,

There’s a potential imposter here somewhere. I thought the real shittymorph retired shortly before hell broke loose on the site-that-must-not-be-named

GlitchSir ,

Who’s shittymorph?

ThtCrzyBstrd ,

Back on the site-that-must-not-be-named, u/shittymorph would wander subreddits randomly and drop a comment that seemed relevant, but devolved into a diatribe about a 1998(?) pro wrestling match in which The Undertaker threw Mankind off the top of Hell in a cell, 16 feet into an announcers table.

Damn, I feel like I just channeled him to write that comment.

Lactaid

euphoria OP , (edited )
@euphoria@kbin.social avatar

i just had 2 of these :)

ChocoboRocket ,

I get them from Costco

I still buy lactose free milk (costs a comparative fortune) but have been toying with the idea of just cracking a lactose pill (they’re powder with gelatin capsule) and simply adding it to the milk

If a lactose pill is like 25 cents and 4L of lactose free milk is $4 more expensive, I’m thinking it’s time to run some experiments.

For me, ice cream works great with lactose pills, it’s when meals have some cheese that my coverage gets spotty, probably has to do with the ice cream being the only thing I’m eating while meals have lots of non lactose stuff that can prevent lactose pills from hitting all that dairy

Hobo , in It wasn't the kind of response I was expecting to get, but thanks 👍🏻

That’s fair enough tho, up until recently there was only one meaning to the name Lemmy, I do like how fitting the name is tho.

Where do you find instances that have more extreme media than lemmynsfw?

Asking for a friend.

001100010010 ,
@001100010010@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Visit [Instance-URL]/instances (for example: lemmy.world/instances) and go to the “Blocked Instances” section.

Warning: Some of those might be illegal, you could find Chris Hansen asking you to take a seat.

Ryantific_theory ,

Huh. Terminal curiosity, but randomly clicking through, I saw a lot of 2000’s era racist/sexist humor, mostly banning NSFW, one entirely made up of github links and anime girls, a weirdly normal Reddit clone, and… one that was suspiciously banned from the internet lol.

So, at least one person got Hansen’d. Which, I can’t imagine what they thought was gonna happen there.

candyman337 ,
@candyman337@lemmy.world avatar

I feel like I heard the story of the one banned from the internet. Dude in Ireland hosted a loli instance and got his shit raided. Could be a different instance, but I do know that is a thing that happened

That’s like setting up in the town square and… doing crime lol. Wild.

001100010010 ,
@001100010010@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

If it isn’t something illegal, it’s either extremist politics, or suspicious user/content ratio so they got flagged as spam instances.

Dettweiler42 ,

…and yet we’re still federated with Lemmygrad.ml

Blamemeta ,

You gotta realize, its what the admins consider extreme, not whats actually extreme.

cacheson ,
@cacheson@kbin.social avatar

Maybe burggit.moe? They're defederated by the bigger instances because of loli hentai.

Other than that and lemmynsfw, the only NSFW instances I'm aware of are pornlemmy.com and lemmyf.uk. Pornlemmy is specifically focused on vanilla. I'm not sure what exactly lemmyfuk has. It really annoys me that none of these instances show anything if you aren't logged in, not even a list of communities. Yes, I know it's a limitation of the software.

bemenaker ,

lemmynsfw.com will definitely show communities if not logged in, and you can see everything if you open one. pornlemmy.com shows everything if not logged in. Both of these are from a web browser, and in my experience if I click on a communty from my feed in either connect or liftoff. and if you hit settings and on each instance, by default they are set to filter stuff for not logged in, you can turn that off, even if you’re not logged in.

cacheson ,
@cacheson@kbin.social avatar

Yeah, see my edit about pornlemmy.

However, lemmynsfw does in fact block NSFW for people that aren't logged in. When I go there (in a web browser), the front page is full of SFW pictures of celebrities. The community list is just a bunch of celebrity-name communities, along with the occasional porn community that forgot to apply their NSFW tag. If I go to those communities though, no posts appear.

Blamemeta ,

Burggit is a general instance tho. i wonder how hard self hosting is
