  • I personally find it rather infuriating that swapping those is made so difficult, and to this day don’t know who has more usecase for media keys and varied power buttons over function keys.

    And the worst thing is, if the upper row defaults as mefia keys, and toggling Fn to be function keys by default, you also toggle numpad to the right side of the keyboard. Don’t get me wrong, I like numpad, but I quite don’t like losing half of my keyboard, because keyboard manufacturers don’t know what keys should be behind the Fn.

    I tought hiding read posts was a feature of Lemmy itself. To be fair, I swapped to Connect from Jerboa after I suggested quality of life update UI, and tge response was rather hostile in my opinion. I mention that because in Connect, hiding posts and comments is bit too easy, as I tend to do that mostly by missclicks.

    That said, I’d imagine implementing a feature to hide post shouldn’t be too hard of a task to program in, I’d imagine.

    To fair, I think the only way to executevthat would be to implement an image recognition algorithm, as I don’t see lemmings marking arachnids as a tag on their posts even as arachnophobia is one of the most common phobias out there (to be fair, I think Mastodon has stronger culture for tagging trigger warnings).

    That said, if you have SLIGHT arachnophobia, I’d almost recommed exposure thereaphy with a professional psychiatrist, as if you have some tolerance, it’s easier to work on than full on panic without ant tolerance.








  • Well, that might partly be the result of Blenderfoundation every once in a blue m8on decide that “now is a good time to completely overhaul the interface”. Blender 2.6, I think when they started to put effort in UI, but after that the UI alone has been overhauled 3 to 4 times, I believe. And people who have lived trough all those UI overhauls (let alone introducing, and scrapping renderes that need to be worked differently each) have jist accepted to adapt “from the olden times”, and never bother to update the tutprials, sine they’ll be obsolete the next time Blender UI is overhauled (for better or worse).




  • How about understanding that “intelligence” is something that you, as a person, were not born with, but learned. If you are more intelligent that your “dumber” counterpart, you will also understand that they will likely have a different way they learn more effective, compared to how you’ve gotten so intelligent. And if you feel you can’t learn anything from anyone around you, it might be that you just don’t want to learn. Similarly, the “dumber” people might be uninterested in the subjects you feel are important for building intelligence.


  • To be fair, the skincolour technically does two jobs; while darker skin protects you better from sunburn, the lighter skin also absorbs vitamin D from the light (and darker skin also protects ou from getting too much of that D). That is why the skincolour gets lighter, the more north you go, as the sun does not provide as much said vitamin.

    Why am I mentioning this, well, the traditional bane of nordic hemisphere people is depression due to the lack of said vitamin D, during the time the sun just don’t come up, so if anyone with a darker skintone migrates here: remenber to supplement that extra D, because even the pale snowpeople have issues getting enough naturally.



  • There is nothing wrong with politicans using mastodon, and they will start using it when ex-twitter statistically show losing popularity. However, the same rules apply for the politicans, as does anyone else. That’s why they’ll probably start creating their own instances for their parties. And luckily people can decide to not to follow them (god I hated twitter when there was any local, or American voting going on. The promotional spam was unhinged).
