I knew about the elevators (and forgot about Manhattan) but this one’s new for me:

Ultrasound can push vaccines into the body without needles (www.newscientist.com)

Vaccines can be delivered through the skin using ultrasound. This method doesn’t damage the skin and eliminates the need for painful needles. To create a needle-free vaccine, Darcy Dunn-Lawless at the University of Oxford and his colleagues mixed vaccine molecules with tiny, cup-shaped proteins. They then applied liquid...

I heard an ad for people scared of dentists - they were offering to put people under.

[More] dangerous and expensive, but better than skipping it altogether.

Gotta be a market for hyper-hypodermic-phobic folks. Even if you & I stick with the five second jab.

How did Lemmy World become the default instance?

World was already the biggest by far when I first started lurking back in July, and it’s just getting more dominant. Before, there was quite some diversity in the distribution of generic communities, but nowadays the vast majority of posts that reach the top are from over there....

And if you’re not following server news, even if you know the very basics of federation, it’s easy to miss defederations and subsequently never know you’re not seeing content you wanted to see.

Personally, I’m very interested in seeing a true representation of top posts. I’ll need a client that can let me login to multiple instances or a server that’s never the federated from anybody. One risk here is I could recommend Lemmy to someone, they could register on a different instance, and assume I like content I in fact don’t.

Tip: just learned I can see federated and blocked instances at /instances (e.g. sh.itjust.works/instances ).

Interesting!

When this guy* made clear ketchup, he used egg whites to separate remaining solid tomato matter out from the liquid tomato umami. Wonder if that would work for oil at all.

Oh not again!

2003’s “Endless Crab” wiped out 1 president and $400 million in shareholder value… you’d‘ve thought they’d’ve learn’ed’ve.

    It says “Not OC” under the photo in the linked post (which Voyager for iOS had to open in browser for some reason).

    The contest should make clear it’s open to folks sharing images they found. I wouldn’t be thrilled to see someone congratulated for “their” photo if this part wasn’t clear.

    ETA: Something like “Picture Fan Submission of the Year”… needs some workshopping though.

    I think it’s fair to reply to niche-sub threads with a little PS:

    BTW, I’ve recently shifted my online engagement to Lemmy, as I find it aligns more with my values and the way I like to share content. The community there is very welcoming, and they’d be incredibly receptive to the insights shared in this thread. Hope to seeing you there!

    Promising, have to check this out!

    Not sure if I’ll want to start with dummy accounts to test… by connecting my reddit account, am I actually potentially triggering more mirroring?

    brbposting ,

    Wow, yes it is!

    Just tested Firefox Focus, Vivaldi, Opera, DuckDuckGo, and Safari with Hyperweb (non-optimized adblock configuration admittedly).

    Orion blocked more ads out of the box than the rest. Impressive. Says it supports some Chrome extensions too. (Didn’t test.)

    Interesting there’s no default search engine. There is an extremely gentle prod towards Kagi by listing all other search engines under “Ad-Supported”.

    How do you access kbin.social?

    On Memmy for iOS, downvotes were displayed by default. On Voyager for iOS, I had to enable downvotes in settings.

    Thanks – and what is the quieter solution vs. blowers? Liquid?

    Oh, simply having a fan does not a blower make then!

    Memmy for iOS: no; caused infinite scrolling and subsequent crash

    Voyager for iOS: no, showed as broken video (slashed, grayed play button)

    Note - the YouTube link is the same as the WebM

    While this was apparently fixed a month ago…

    I blocked “lemmy.world”, force quit, relaunched, verified lemmy.world was still blocked… and then found lemmy.world content on All regardless. Perhaps I misunderstand something.

    Man, don’t get into his profile. He keeps defending Milei every comment. It’s a shame that the Argentines don’t have a term like bolsominion for his big followers.

    See this is downvoted - many read “gypsy” as a slur, which I didn’t know for years.

    Hmm, this works…

    But had to use DuckDuckGo from a browser - Memmy (iOS) was no help searching. More testing needed on my end.

    brbposting ,

    How’d you do that?

    Doubt it was…:

    @uis

    So I’m guessing:

    (Which was @[email protected] - had to do this manually.)

    Are you using Lemmy from a desktop? Neither Memmy nor Voyager supported this automatically on iOS.

    Can you try mentioning me like this?

    brbposting ,

    Psst… I messaged you just now RE: the deleted 2023 picture of the year post. I had to use a browser as neither Memmy nor Voyager (iOS) supported the feature, although the latter pretended to.

    Messaging is definitely in its infancy. Required quite a backwards flow to find the sent message, after determining how to find you in the first place given you were on another instance.

    /threadcrap (sorry readers)

    (Actually I’ll keep crapping because I had to troubleshoot why I couldn’t reply to your “Roses are ” comment… looks like that post was deleted, but Lemmy via browser wasn’t going to warn me besides spinning a pinwheel after I clicked “[post] reply”.)

    I hate how everything requires you to download a shitty proprietary data harvesting app nowadays when everything can be done just fine without an app.

    I have recently started a new position and am required to use an app that has three Facebook trackers, one of them being a Facebook location tracker according to Exodus App Privacy in order to get your food when it would literally work perfectly fine ordering to a real cashier or shit even a website rather than having to...

    When something’s flagged NSFW, you can replace the “www” with “old” (e.g. old dot reddit dot com) to bypass :)
