No Senseless Tooting around Everett True (October 3, 1917) in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

I bet we will find out at SACRIFICE.

But regarding E-Tru's bod, I reckon it's kind of like sumo wrestlers, who have a lot of fat, but beneath that half their body is muscle.

I have no idea what they're saying or why. That's part of the charm. I have this in my "favorites" and always get hyped when it comes on.

If you chopped the onion, sprinkled it over half the bun, then melted the cheese over it, you might have something amazing. (Depending on the type of cheese.)

Abortive Gasp - Psychogod. Someone posted this to [email protected] last year. I was the only person to upvote and comment on it. 1K people upvoted it on youtube, but that's over 6 years. I don't know anything else about this group.

But I hear it's terrific. in c/[email protected]

I like watching art house movies and then figuring out what I don’t like about it.

Have you seen Aimy in a Cage? It's a great example of that. It's an art house film that does many things right, but unfortunately "something" wrong (I think related to editing or cinematography) so it's not very good.

I don't want to call Twitter X out of spite, but calling the travesty that is X Twitter is an insult to the people that made Twitter what it was. in c/[email protected]

We should call it "X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter." Every time. Yes it sounds ridiculous, because it is.

Only one solution. Halloween has done its part in keeping October secure. So NaNoWriMo and NNN need to achieve the same level of widespread corporate support that Halloween has.

Posting to Lemmy and specifying thumbnails? in c/[email protected]

Thanks for the info! I suspect a lot of these issues will be resolved over time. But just like early html, there may always be some variation in how it's ultimately displayed to the end-user.

Posting to Lemmy and specifying thumbnails? (lemmy.world)
 

Hi there, I was posting on [email protected] for a while, and I'd post links to youtube videos, and it'd automatically make thumbnails so that was cool.

But then "something changed" and it no longer made thumbnails, at least when seen on the web interface. But sometimes it does? The following image shows an example. In the first post, it has no thumbnail but in the second case it does:

MY QUESTION: how do make a Lemmy post to a video (especially on youtube) such that the post includes a thumbnail?

  • Either automatically-generated, or custom-made by me.
  • Preferrably via a computer client rather than phone.
