Here's a link to the video.

I see this as a small victory for the Fediverse.

[-] [email protected] 107 points 11 months ago

There’s definitely an LTT writer that’s active here.

During the last TalkLinked Jacob said he was on Lemmy :)

gestures passionately "Download Lemmy!"

I'm feeling warm and fuzzy for some reason.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago

I am 35, you're classified

The Lemmy energy is strong here.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago

The only thing Lemmy doesn’t have that Reddit does have is the immense history of quality content. This will only get better in time.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

It's also missing IMO some mass to discuss more specific topics. For example, there's enough people to discuss "anime" or "games", but too few to discuss a specific anime series, or a specific game.

That'll get better in time too, I believe.

Did you know you can embed images on Lemmy using the markdown ![](link-to-gif)

Soon BuzzFeed will be stealing content from Lemmy

[-] [email protected] 46 points 11 months ago

You won't believe our top five Star Trek and Linux memes of the week!

[-] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Blocked all meme subs... this place has enough content without filler now imho

You have done well, Lemmy. Keep going, and become greater than the corporate-overlord media.

[-] [email protected] 61 points 11 months ago

I'm convinced someone on LTT's team is on Lemmy. Two weeks ago one of their quickbits had a title "u/spez endorses lemmy".

[-] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago

You left your SI in the link

[-] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

What is an si (I presume session id)?

And where do look, if there is a standard for these thingies?

I understand that these are query strings, but who decides which keys are there and what they mean? And if they depend completely on the server's implementation, then how do you know what the "si" key means, except from experience?

Thanks in advance.

It's an individual tracking code that tells Google who generated the youtube link you click on. That way, they can see who you're talking with on other websites.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

I went, "Ooh! That's some ingenuity!" and , both at the same time.

Wasting the ingenuity for this stuff.

[-] [email protected] 49 points 11 months ago

We did it Lemmy

I wish reddit a very merry "Going the way of Myspace and Ebaumsworld"

[-] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago

Reddit is probably too big to completely disappear but if they keep isolating themselves from the rest of the internet they could easily lose mainstream appeal and end up more like a SomethingAwful

You know how people will repost screenshots of tweets or whatever? The other day I saw a screenshot of a Mastodon post on Instagram.

Link to segment. And, no, not only didn't Liechtenstein not cross the threshold they're not even in the EU they can't vote.

Even more up to date numbers straight from the commission.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago

Oooh, Netherlands and Denmark both over 90% now. We're movin'!

[-] [email protected] 31 points 11 months ago

I'm worried about the link rot problem when the specific instance used as source goes down.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago

It’s like we need a DOI system for lemmy posts.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

When I use a website as a source, at the time that I access it for information, I will also save a snapshot of it in the Wayback Machine. Ofc theres no guarantee that the Internet Archive will be able to survive, but the likelihood of that is probably far greater than some random website. So, if the link dies, one can still see it in the Wayback Machine. This also has the added benefit of locking in time what the source looked like when it was accessed (assuming one timestamps when they access the source when they cite it).

[-] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago

That's unfortunately just how the internet is/works. It's all links and links to each other. Check out https://archive.is and https://archive.ph - Maybe we can build a decentralized archive thing based on IPFS or something

I already don't own an xbox and am happy about it. Checkmate, MS.

Mama we made it

[-] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago

Well done, that's so awesome to see.

did LTT ever actually fix that issue where they stole somebody's prototype after trashing it in a review where they tested it on the wrong thing? I had a weird vibe about Linus before that, and just wrote him off after
