Okay, here we go! Giving social media another try with since I started to miss the academic community that social media used to provide for me.

I'm Nele, a postdoc at the University of Oslo, working on the language of fake news in English. I'm also affiliated with Lund University through my work on the London–Lund Corpus 2 and spoken language.

That's (mainly) what I'll be posting about. Here we go again!

@nelksu @ElenLeFoll @elmerot @linguistics @academicchatter @academicsunite @corpuslinguistics if I could not, I probably would not even be here. Given that except for following people (I don't know many here) or groups (there are not too many), following hashtags is THE main way how to get interesting content into your timeline, apparently.

For the future, it’s probably best to post to Lemmy communities from a Lemmy, kbin, or Friendica account; otherwise you risk the formatting of your message getting badly messed up, as it has here. It’s cool that you can post here from Mastodon but that doesn’t make it a good idea.

It would also have helped if you included some description with your link.

Vittelius ,

You can actually write posts from a Mastodon account that look well on Lemmy. All you have to do is follow a few basic rules.

  1. Your post must include a line break. Everything above the break will be converted into the title of the post, everything below into the body.
  2. Don’t put any hyperlinks into your title. That includes hashtags and @ mentions. See the original post for why
  3. Keep your headline short. Lemmy has a character limit for the headline and if you exceed it your title might just end mid sentence
  4. Put the @ mention of the community at the end of your post. It’s nothing but a technical necessity, so treat it as such and hide it away at the bottom of your post

If you follow these rules you can write posts from Mastodon

@BBC_News_Labs Nice! As a video indexer myself, having been doing it for ~8 years, it's great to see this in the works.

@catgirlfingies I really liked Silent Hill 3 and Fatal Frame. Hill 3’s spooky atmosphere and plot was great. I became a fan of the franchise immediately after I played it. As an aside: I was SO bummed when they cancelled Kojima’s Silent Hill project 😭.

Fatal Frame had a cool ghost-fighting mechanic. It was like Pokémon Snap but with higher stakes. Taking a good shot meant that you weren’t going to die fighting a particular ghost 😄.

And yes, I played lots of horror games back in the day of PS2. I don’t play a lot of them nowadays because I only have a Switch now as my main console, and I’ve been prioritizing first-party games (no horror there!). I did play Luigi’s Mansion 3; does that count? 😄

@elonjet people has to take cars for emission control every once in a while. Might be a good time to do the same for private jets, and charge an environmental tax. This is beyond any civilized environmental standard

Dharkstare , to steamdeck

I was thinking about getting a Steam Deck but I'm not entirely sure if it's better than my GTX 970. I'll have to do more research since there's no point in getting something that isn't an upgrade.

@steamdeck

Dharkstare OP ,

@BumpingFuglies You don't have any problems when using it docked? I had read a few posts claiming that running it docked caused it to struggle.

BumpingFuglies ,

The official Valve dock has connectivity issues, but there are plenty of third party docks that are cheaper and work better.

Using the default system settings, I’ve never had any performance issues with it docked compared to handheld.

It’s important to note that unlike the Switch, docked mode does not improve performance. Trying to play a game at your TV’s native resolution most definitely will cause performance issues, but again, default system settings work perfectly.

Staring into your soul and testing user/community name collision

Someone raised an interesting question on Lemmy: what happens when a community and user have the same name, and someone tags that name from non-Lemmy software.

@cats is about to find out.

And I can’t see the reply from Mastodon, but I’ve read Lemmy 0.18.3 is having weird federation issues.
