Google is no longer a search engine.

We’re not allowed to have our own opinions?

How very Dictator of you.

fujiwood ,

I posit that an uncorruptible person would never allow themselves to become a Dictator.

An uncorruptible individual would possess other traits that would humble them enough to not believe that they are above all others.

A Dictator believes that they themselves have the only right to rule.

What are your favorite fonts for technical reports?

I work at a consulting engineering firm and write a lot of reports that are read by the public. I have an opportunity to recommend a different font for all of our written documents and am looking for something more modern/fresh than Times New Roman. Also open to recommendations for purpose specific communities about...

Some of my favorite fonts were designed by Vernon Adams.

He passed away in 2016 but I always remember his fonts. I didn’t know him personally but after using his fonts for years and learning about his passing, l felt very sad. Take a look, you might like some of his fonts.

Threads has hashtags now (www.theverge.com)

“Tags work a little differently than hashtags do on platforms like Instagram and X (formerly Twitter). When composing a Threads post, you start a tag by tapping the # symbol and then typing out your topic. But instead of being limited to just one word, you can type out a whole phrase (with spaces!) and add special characters,...

bro you dont like sentences why not its good for everyone to be able to just do whatever they want its totes okay because then you can like be like really specific about your hashtag so only like minded people can see your stuff and you can make real connections fr fr no cap

Edit: JFC it’s going to be so stupid.

Just Run Zero to 5K.

For me it’s the Golden Age of apps. Easy to use, minimal, good UI, no ads with the ability to buy premium, all the features that you need and non that you don’t.

If you want to start jogging I highly recommend it. I think it’s perfect.

Edit: I went from barely able to jog an exhausting half mile to jogging 4.5 miles in 13 weeks. It wasn’t easy and I think I “failed” a jog twice but having a clear goal with the encouragement of seeing a timer motivate you really helped me.

Isn’t taste also affected by age? Like eyesight and hearing, it diminishes with age.

Their coffee might taste to them the way your coffee tastes to you.

I’m sorry to be the spelling guy but it’s “phobia” not “fobia”

fujiwood ,

Na, I understood the joke just fine. If you were here when I replied my joke to the joke, you would know that the post I replied to had negative votes until I made my joke. Then everyone else realized that they were making a joke and started giving them upvotes. Have a good day.

I think it’s a good idea to merge the smaller communities into a larger one in order to improve engagement, interest, growth etc. There just isn’t enough content per small community.

Home cooked corn tortillas. (lemmy.world)

I say home cooked because with prepackaged masa it’s literally “add water” to prepare. It doesn’t take very long to make but since the flavor of the mass produced masa is very similar to some premade corn tortillas I usually only make them when I’m out of premade tortillas. In my opinion azul masa does have a better...

fujiwood OP ,

Thanks for that insight and tips on making homemade masa!

You’re right it does sound like a lot of work but I wouldn’t mind trying it at least once or making it in a few times a year. Both for the flavor but also for the knowledge and experience of the process.

How long does it take for the corn to dry in the sun?

fujiwood OP ,

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! I just found their website and it seems they also sell a diy kit for making your own masa. They don’t ship fresh tortillas or masa since they are perishable. I don’t blame them. If the whole point is to make a better tortillas you should probably make everything the same day.

fujiwood OP ,

While I have tried growing my own corn, it didn’t really work out that well. I honestly didn’t water them enough.

You mention husked ears off the stalk, so if I were to buy corn in the husk would it be possible to dry those in the sun?

fujiwood OP ,

No worries, thanks for your knowledge!

fujiwood ,

I had a potato and leak soup not too long ago and a vegetable soup that was honestly better than it has any right to be.

I can’t really say I have a favorite though. As long as it’s home made it’s probably delicious.

fujiwood ,

Also that time he went seal clubbing.

fujiwood ,

Okay. Do you think dying is a pretty big red flag?

fujiwood , (edited )

I remember when Vice was “bleeding-edge-unwavering-unapologetic-raw-insert-other-catchy-adjective news! The stories no one else has the genitals to cover!”

I never personally thought that but I’m pretty sure that’s what they wanted other people to think.

They prefer back and forth motion, shaking if you will, over a circular motion like stirring. Hence they don’t spin webs. They prefer them shaken.

fujiwood ,

Probably a wall outlet. Pretty sure those can kill you.

My first thought is they are running low on food.

My guess is probably due to over fishing and die off due to climate change. They probably don’t understand the climate part but they can see ships take all their food.

Hence they are starting to attack the things that take their food. This is 100% my opinion.

fujiwood ,

Wut.

fujiwood ,

That’s pretty neat!

fujiwood ,

I’m happy to wait until Dev is ready to test or release. He made a phenomenal app for Reddit and I’m just glad he’s decided to make it for Lemmy.

fujiwood ,

Whyland doesn’t sound as good though.

Why is my Lemmy experience feeling so lame? **UPDATE**

I’ve subscribed to a plethora of communities that really interest me and actually have posts and discussions in them, but I have to go to the specific community to see this. My “Subscribed” feed only contains a few of the same posts that I’ve seen for weeks in Hot, the same posts from even longer ago in “Active”,...

fujiwood ,

You’re not going to like what I’m about to say.

You’re part of the problem. You can fix it though.

Ready?

You need to make original content for the communities you are apart of and stop expecting others to provide you the conent you want. Because if that’s what everyone did, then there would be absolutely nothing here.

That’s just the way it is right now. There’s not enough original content creators on Lemmy yet.

What does original content mean? It doesn’t mean reposts from other websites. It doesn’t mean articles from other websites. The original content was already posted by the writers of the articles, on the original website. It doesn’t mean comments you make. My comment here isn’t original content. It’s a reaction.

Original content is something you make. You baked some sourdough bread? Post. You made a chair from wood? Post. You made something out of leather? Post. You took a nice photo? Post. You made some digital art? Post. You drew a sketch of a building? Post. You did “insert hobby”? Post. You’re a collector of this niche thing? Post.

The truth is, original content can be hard and time-consuming. It takes a certain mind to want to post original content. If everyone here would make just one original content post, I think that would help make Lemmy a better social media site.

Be the change.

fujiwood , (edited )

That isn’t true. It is not a numbers game. Reddit didn’t start off with numbers. Facebook didn’t start off with numbers. Tumblr didn’t start off with numbers. Twitter didn’t start off with numbers.

They all started small. Growing gradually. People stayed because they enjoyed the content and the community.

Hype and influence only attract a certain type of person. Fools. That will just create an inferior community. You’ll have a digital Fyre Festival that way.

Artificially inflating numbers creates a community with no respect of the community itself. There’s no thought in that. When you put no thought into something the results aren’t good.

fujiwood ,

When I joined Facebook in ~2006 there was already a decent amount of people using it. There was enough interesting content for me to stick around.

When I joined Reddit ~2009 it was also starting to really become popular. The Digg exodus helped tremendously.

The difference between them and Lemmy is that they already felt polished compared to Lemmy. Lemmy feels almost as though it’s in Beta. Lemmy goes down practically everyday for me. There’s not a lot of original content and it’s a very different experience than any other social media sites. Honestly, it’s complicated compared to the straight forward nature of other social media sites.

Instances, communities, Fediverse etc. I’m going to say that a lot of people will not like the hassle.

Can there truly be an implosion of Lemmy? I thought the nature of the Fediverse was that it can’t be controlled by a single entity? If an instance goes down, can’t there be something to replace it? As long as there are servers and people willing, it will remain. Right?

fujiwood ,

You’re right, I didnt look at your profile. That was my mistake. My comment wasn’t intended to be an attack on you. It was more of a generalization of a problem of Lemmy at the moment. I should have gone out of my way to look at your profile and to better phrase what I was saying so that you and others wouldn’t feel as though I was making a personal attack. Sorry about making you feel attacked.

How am I supposed to make a filter to block “X”? I know Lemmy doesn’t support it yet but on Boost for Reddit I could add filters to block certain posts with words/names.

I’m hoping that Boost for Lemmy will have this feature but my first question still stands. Blocking “Twitter” was easy because it was specific. How am I supposed to block a letter?

If intelligent life is found in the universe will it change religion(s)?
