Well that script was ran on enough other computers, so the magic algorithm decided if everyone else ran it, it must be fine.

There's a specific type of person that makes quick, unilateral decisions that effect entire communities, with out allowing time for community members or other admins to participate in a discussion.

They're called hoa presidents, and I think I can speak for everyone here; we do not want this community ran like a shitty hoa.

Give the mods time to decide how they want to deal with the artist's we don't want shared here. I don't want the moderators to curate it, nor do I think they should have the added workload of digging through an artist's history to verify they are an issue - which they have to do thoroughly because of how easy it is to edit a comic to be something its not.

I still think the easiest is to just have everyone put the artist name in the title. If the singular post isn't a problem, it can stay. If people want to block the entire artist, they can make a filter. Perhaps a bot could also be made to pick up on the artist's name and put an informative "BTW, this guy stinks" in the comments. If a user is repeatedly posting hateful content, then they should get banned.

Put an indicator light on the glasses with a sensor to make sure it's on from the nose bridge.

This is that part that's missing, it's more obvious when someone is holding their phone to record you. Phone's should probably have an indicator too....

The cookie dough they use in cookie dough flavored things is safe to eat, mainly the raw egg is not there.

There's no way they would purposely sell us anything with immediate health risk that can be easily pinned on them.

Also not all sushi is raw fish, some is cooked. Improperly handled raw fish can be very dangerous, so only eat it at places you trust (I.e maybe not the buffet or grocery sushi).

Sorry, that's outside of the cancelation window. You'll have to pay full price for the visit.

I think if we require artist name in the title, people can easily filter it out.

Do not remove artist credit, people have the right to know who made the art. For the question of "can you separate art from the artist", everyone is going to have a different stance on it, and even then it may vary depending on the severity of the artist's action. Removing the artist credit removes people's autonomy in that regard.

It also opens the door for people to claim "Billy made one off hand joke 17 years ago, so now we must crop out all their credit because it's an advertisement".

Consistent rules will be best. Making exceptions and attempting to maintain a blacklist gets messy to manage and can get out of hand.

Yeah a lot of frozen vegetables are fine, especially when cooked in a casserole or something, but not on their own.

I know it's not practical to avoid all processed stuff, not that I want to, and a lot of it is healthy enough. It's just all the stuff with reasonable amounts of salt/sugar/etc and still tastes good tends to cost more. (even then you have to be careful, a lot the stuff marketed as healthier really isn't. Exhibit A; Diet Soda)

It seems protein is the latest trend, a lot of stuff is highlighting how much protein they have in them. Protein is great, but I'll get that from the regular sources not a dense candy bar or meat stick. Gosh even some milks (that aren't specifically protein drinks) are highlighting protein content now lol.

Yeah, I don't care for the labels, I just try to pay attention to ingredents.

Everyone's essentials will differ, for me it its things like canned veggies, jarred sauce, frozen veggies, canned soup - basically easy meals or sides to easily make dinner after work.

Yes, most of that is healthier than a TV dinner, but fresh is still better (and tastier).

I could learn to can or pickle my own, but that's not with out its own difficulties.

Sure the staples are pretty easy, but a head of iceburg is a dollar while all the stuff with some nutritional value costs $3 for less per pound.

Going to the store with produce that isn't already half dead, so it will last the whole week costs more.

Going the store multiple times a week for fresh produce costs more in gas and time (and "extra" buying). I end up with lots of fresh meals at the start of the week, but towards the end its all frozen or canned vegetables, which is a lot of salt.

Buying the juice, or any snack, not full of high-fructose corn syrup costs more.

Fresh bakery bread costs $5+, while a loafs cost $1-2. A loaf of wheat or multi-grain bread costs around $3.

It all adds up, and yes I am lazy.

Healthy eating.

It's so much more expensive and effort than the mainstream stuff. Its easy enough to cut back on the junk foods, but the cutting out the processed "essentials" is harder.

Personally I think it should be tagged nsfw.

I like the metric I came up with the other day.

If you'd get arrested for showing it to a 16yr old, tag it. If you'd shoot your "creepy uncle" for showing it to your 16yr old kid, tag it.

It's not that I think a 16yr old isn't mature enough for this type of material, but it's a lot different if a much older person shares it with them. When in doubt - tag it.

The solution is Settings -> Account preferences -> Show read posts?

Thanks fujiwood@lemmy.world


I've posted a few time, but the post list always remains empty for some reason.

I can see other people posts on their profiles.

Basically looking a calandar that stays on the deaktop, and can show events (Otherwise I'd just use a wallpaper). I don't need much interaction with it, if any, essentially just open the actaul calandar program. Sync with iCal is a big plus.

While FOSS is ideal, I'm open to anything free (that can be firewalled or is actually private (unlikely, I know))

I found one that used windows 7 widgets, but it was too small and didn't seem to work right anyways.

Android Tablets (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world to c/android@lemmy.world

Does anyone have good experience with android tablets, and possibly replacing the OS? I see some interesting options from Google, lenovo, one plus, etc... I imagine the pixel one will be the easiest to load a new OS to, but I also wonder about the tablet support of things like lineage or graphine.

The hardware doesn't have to be groundbreaking, just good enough to be my "travel laptop" for movies, comics and general interneting. I don't want a laptop, as I often like to sit in chair/bed to read comics or watch movies and a keyboard would make that awkward.

One of my main concerns is the update support - my iPad has been getting updates since 2017, a lot of the android manufactures are promising a pathetic 3 to 5 years. I don't want to be "software bricked" in 5 years (I.e apps eventually requiring an Android version I cannot update to)
