Rivians seem to be (a) popular, and (b) getting much better reviews than the Cybertruck. So if you're truck hunting, that's a good option.

Didn't the industry recently standardize on the Tesla connector, though? Wouldn't that mean you could charge at any Tesla station?

These aren't Tesla specific.

Educated populations tend to be more liberal, and exhibit more critical thinking. It's not a guarantee, but it tends to form a shield against blind indoctrination and especially religious fundamentalism.

Conservatives do not want an educated population.

Yeah, I left when it became impossible to really advance without coop play. Even strikes were annoying, but raids were impossible if you didn't have a team, or were just a casual player. When Bungie obviously stopped giving a shit about casuals or PvE players, I stopped giving a shit about Destiny.

Kin is fairly popular and available. You can even get it at liquor stores.

USA next. If we can ban TikTok, we can do Twitter too!

No.

The very last time I was in a theater, the woman ahead of me freaked out because she found bugs crawling on her. Movie off, lights on; the chair she was in was covered in lice.

That got me thinking a lot about the environmental conditions of movie theater seats: large crowds of a cross section of society, rotating multiple times a day. And given seat could have had four different people sitting in it by the late night showing. And that, seven days a week. Even if they completely fumigated the entire theater between showings (which they don't), then you'd only be trading a potential infestation with exposure to chemicals likely to increase your cancer risk.

Nope. No thank you. A decent big screen OLED and sound system, and I'm perfectly happy to wait until I can stream the movie. Plus, you pay once vs once per person.

We’re gonna put creatives out of work, we’re gonna sell a unified product to replace them, and we’re gonna use their own labor to build their replacements.

Yes, but: it's short sighted, and wrong. Until we have a sea change in the LLM/AGI space, "creatives" will be needed for seed data. LLMs that are recursively trained on their own output degrade and produce worse output over time.

The "yes" part is that companies looking to replace paying people for their work, but still hoping that Creative Commons types are still posting online for free harvesting.

I did this recently, and encountered exactly the same issue. I can't say whether it's the same root cause, but it might be.

The device ID for the efi or boot partition may change, and in this case you have to make certain you hunt down every reference to it and update it. IIRC in my case it was in a config file for dracut, and I cottoned on when I upgraded the kernel and got back in the hung mode.

If you know the old blkid, do a deep search in both your efi partition as well as /etc and make sure you've changed to the new device UUIDs.

Stop worrying about what and what now? Did you mean evil humors and curses?

Pa taught me to scalp my enemies, tan the skin, and line my helmet. It's an almost perfect fit.

I like it! It has a sort of Ducati vibe going, and the upright riding posture looks comfy.

 

I don't really trust any of the Lemmy apps I use on my phone, although I still vastly prefer them to web apps.

Is there a pinned post where users can comment about Reddit communities that have migrated to the Fediverse?

If not, should there be one and is this the appropriate community to host it?

As a refuge myself, I'm keeping an eye out for subs I used to enjoy which have moved.

 

Suuuuper new to Lemmy, so apologies in advamce if this is a particularly stupid question. DDG has been no help.

I'm a member of midwest.social. I'd like to subscribe, and post to, a community (sub?) on another server. I know the other server is federated with midwest.social, because I can see other subs, and I know the sub on the foreign server (in this case, lemmy.ml), which I found with DDG.

So why can't I find the sub in Jerboa? I've searched by name, by name including server, by every combination of reference I can think of. !, #, @.

It's a technical sub, and I can't imagine it's been intentionally blocked. So I'm thinking that maybe Lemmy is whitelist-based? Do admins have to explicitly include subs from other instances? Or is there some magic that I've somehow missed about how to get to a federated sub that maybe nobody has yet accessed on the instance I've joined?

I found an old (1y) discussion about how to make Lemmy more accessible to new users. Someone offhand referenced this topic (accessing federated subs) needing more clarity, but with no explanation. A pointer to a how-to would be handy; maybe answers will help some future user when they find this post through whichever fad search engine privacy wonks are using in a couple of years.
