rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto New Communities@lemmy.world•FuckYourHeadlights - A community for people to organise and vent about ridiculously bright lightsEnglish7·4 months agoNo downvotes from me. I cycle every day, it’s my only mode of transportation, and the number of poorly adjusted lights on other people’s bikes is staggering.
I think Lemmy needs a higher-level sign-up procedure that hides the complexity of the fediverse. This could be a webpage with a simple, clutter-free interface that handles picking and registering on an instance from a curated list semi-automatically, for example, by asking you 3-4 questions before giving you a suggested server that fits your responses (which you can change) and a button to register there. The procedure could also handle the occasional additional sign-up requirements that some instances have.
IMHO, 90% of users will never interact with the “federation” aspects of Lemmy after that, and they also don’t need to. I personally don’t feel like Lemmy being federated has much of an impact on my user experience day to day.
What should those people do?
Back then, it was already extremely clear that the Cybertruck was a stupid vanity project intended for people who wanted to feel futuristic but wouldn’t have bought a regular EV, because it wasn’t cool and mean enough. So my potentially hot take is: Those people got what they deserve.
What can they do now? Take it as a learning opportunity. Be better.
I recently switched from 1 January 1900 to 1 January 2000. It feels good to be young again.

rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•For-profit Pie Adblock (from the founder of Honey) called out for copying uBlock Origin open source code without creditEnglish297·6 months agoIsn’t that illegal? What kind of license is uBO under?
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Widelands is a free, open source real-time strategy game.21·7 months agoNo, like Settlers. Civ is turn-based. Edit: If you’re looking for a free version of Civ, the FreeCiv (PC) and UnCiv (Android) may interest you.
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•All the other brands went alongEnglish3·7 months agoI agree, I would just like to have more of them.
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in EuropeEnglish363·8 months agoSee it more like “preventing a website whose owner refuses to comply withEuropean law from operating in the EU”.
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Researchers say an AI-powered transcription tool used in hospitals invents things no one ever saidEnglish30·8 months agoThat’s hilarious. I just love how AI is basically like a 6-year-old who weaves his favorite new expressions into everything without fully understanding what they mean.
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Tony's Chocolonely bars are shaped unevenly to represent farmer inequality and the coastline of Africa11·9 months agoFait point, but it’s a statement about the industry as a whole, not their own production. Even if they were to distribute profits evenly over the entire production chain of their products (which I agree they probably don’t), the industry as a whole would still have this problem.
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•ELI5 If Trump is a supposed billionaire why does he keep promoting cheap crap to get money?English38·9 months agoHe’s lying, lol.
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Android@lemdro.id•Fairphone launches a cheaper version of the Fairphone 5 with less memory and storage - LiliputingEnglish22·10 months agoGreenwashing is a bit harsh, no? From what I’ve seen, Fairphone is fairly involved in the improvement of production processes and usage patterns of phones (fairer wages, safer/cleaner ressource extraction, long-term software support, easier repairability for a wide audience) to the extent that this is possible for a relatively small company. They haven’t always delivered on every one of these points, but have had a pretty strong record in recent years, stronger than any other company I know of. Or maybe there are other companies that do this better or similarly well?
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Android@lemdro.id•iFixit: We’re Ending Our Samsung CollaborationEnglish213·1 year agoReading this from a Fairphone 3 that received a new battery and a new headphone jack three weeks ago (and which were both extremely easy to install).
rustydrd@sh.itjust.worksto Open Source@lemmy.ml•A modern resume template written in Typst, inspired by Awesome-CV18·1 year agoThe world must know of my skills.
Great news. Although it’s bizarre that it took an entire continent passing a new law to get to this point.
I can ask the question, sure, but what if the answer is wrong?
