What are some forms of mobile storage and organizers you'd recommend? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Honestly broadly interested in storing/organizing any variety of things but in a way that they may be easily moved around. Tool carts are always a fav in this respect, and make me curious about similar for other things like books/models/etc.

How do offline, local groups get started and reach others now? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think posters/flyers are one of the most powerful ways to reach people in a local area, you’ve got to be in the local area to see them, right?

For sure in terms of locality, but not sure how effective they are in areas with lower foot traffic due to infrastructure. In a city this may work well, but does it also work as well in more rural, spread-out areas?

Follow-up: has anyone coming across this post started a local group, or helped with one starting out that could relate how they went about it?

Once Again, the Democratic Leadership Has Failed Us All in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Ask yourself: Why did Donald Trump win. And think about it. The answer is right before you and blazingly far more obvious than any particular action that was within Democrats or Kamala's control.

What do you personally think the reason was?

If time were able to get tangled in knots, how do you imagine experiencing the knots would be like? in c/[email protected]

Also, tangled knots happen in space. What kind of space can time get tangled within?

Now that's another fun question! It also makes me wonder, how would space behave in tangly time?

Would the space in which time gets tangled be primarily around extreme phenomena like black holes, or the very beginnings of the universe (or a universe, if one wants to get into multiverse angles)?

True! It is intentionally insufficiently defined to inspire and encourage imaginative replies!

But what if you witnessed your knot while a knot?

You don't think if time bent on itself you might be able to see events from before or after happening out of sequence around you?

that's basically fine in c/[email protected]

Is removing swords from inside one's body detrimental or beneficial in this situation?

Appreciate the advice for finding groups! However, my question is more about getting them started and handling outreach to keep them going.

This does provide some insight into some venues that may be good for them, so thanks!

FBI warns that fake videos using its name, insignia are spreading election misinformation in c/[email protected]

Is it possible this is a case of Spider-Man pointing at Spider-Man, given the history of the FBI (and other U.S. intelligence agencies)?

How are Misskey and its forks doing? (lemm.ee)
 

By which I mean in terms of usage, development, or stability. Also along those lines, which English-speaking instances would you recommend?

Interested as Misskey & forks have some feature edges over Mastodon in my opinion, but it's somewhat harder to find discussion/info about them.

What tools and features do you use to make enclosed social media networks more tolerable to navigate? (lemm.ee)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/44125257

By tools I mean anything from alternate frontends to add-ons/extensions for browsers or anything else. By features I mean any built-in features the service may provide to give you some degree of customization or control over your experience, e.g. lists/blocking/keyword filtering/etc.

Thanks in advance!

Seems likely big businesses would be obvious targets for tons of unwanted phone calls, so how do they deal with this?

Advice on building an online portfolio of work while balancing privacy? (lemm.ee)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/20402370 or https://lemm.ee/post/43793474

Technically, I have some online activity I could try to refer to for work purposes, but it would mean sharing content tied to usernames/profiles I think of more as casual and personal. I could delete those profiles and move the relevant work to usernames/profiles I'm willing to share, but then I'm less likely to use those as much for portfolio building as I wouldn't want to contribute/do things online under a more public-facing profile, or link my personal ones to said profile.

Any which way I think about it involves crossing private/public streams I'd prefer to keep uncrossed, but I'm thinking I may be overlooking some compromises that could work, so what might those be?

What cross-platform software for testing/checking a hard drive's condition/health would you recommend? (lemm.ee)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.zip/post/23695798 or https://lemm.ee/post/43700421

Also open to recommendations for similar diagnostic software for other data storage media like SSDs, flash drives, and SD cards. Just wanted to keep the title short and specific. If you're making recommendations for tools for the other types of media, please mention that.

Thanks in advance!

Is there a setting for instances to disable voting from Local or All feeds? (lemm.ee)
 

Given that instances can disable downvoting altogether, it led me to wondering...
