It seemed like a good idea at the time.

I'm pretty happy here in our corner of Lemmy. Why would I want to know what's going everywhere on the internet all at once?

Slow lately (lemmy.world)
submitted 10 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I noticed recently there's some slowness in the mornings. Things taking a while to load. Comments failing due to timeout etc.

When I switch to another instance everything works again so pretty sure it's not my internet.

Is there anything we can do or help with? Are there DOS or bot shenanigans going on?

Or when Netgear just randomly picked university of Wisconsin as the NTP server for all it's cheap routers. https://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~plonka/netgear-sntp/

I joined .world before aussie.zone was a thing. Now with them banning all the piracy communities it seems a slippery slope for all other kinds of discussions too.

I'm Australian. Aussies are notorious pirates. Does aussie.zone have plans to also defederate dbzer0 etc?

Just want some clarity before moving here.

Thanks!

Shit's fucked. Could be a scam too. Apparently common on Facebook at the moment people advertise a room or something like this and then when people start messaging they ask for the first week payment to secure it before everyone else.

So they get a dozen or so people's $200.

If a piece of hardware can't run doom is it even hardware?

Maybe the easiest method is to create the fusion reaction in space because then you don't need to worry about containment. Have a big ball of fusion going nonstop and then beam that energy to earth.

Then have collectors which receive that beamed down energy. You could put them everywhere... Maybe close to where you need the energy like directly on top of buildings and houses.

The cultural context for myself as a teenage boy was that Christina Applegate was in it.

Thousands of angry Muslims around the world demanding Sweden forbid such acts reacted by storming and burning the Swedish embassy in Iraq on July 20, for instance, as well as burning countless US, Israeli, Swedish and LGTBQ flags.

So they're complaining about their symbols being burnt but they do exactly the same? Okay.

Well... Not really that shocked.

I'm Australian and went on a business trip last month to the UK and to the USA.

In the UK I didn't see Bluey anywhere, but in the USA I saw Bluey stuff everywhere. Every hotel room at some point flipping channels Disney Jr seemed to have Bluey on all the time. I saw kids wearing Bluey merch when out and about. I saw Bluey merch in stores. Even on a flight, the kids in front of me were watching Bluey on the inflight entertainment.

At one hotel I had to go down the hallway to get some ice, and was wearing my Bandit PJ t-shirt. Another guy in his 30s came out of the elevator and was like "OMG I love your shirt! We all love Bluey!"

So my question is, will the next generation of American squibs all have an Australian accent?

Your point stands, but just wanted to point out that the lemmy devs have been working full time on this for the last 3 years, funded by https://nlnet.nl/

This is Sunny. Unfortunately she flew away about a year ago. Last spotted hanging out with a flock of galahs. But absolutely refused to return when called. Silly derp. 😢 Much sadness was had. But remembered as a cheeky little chicken.

At the moment if you're inside a post and you want to refresh the comments you have to go all the way to the top and do the pull-down to refresh. Generally this is fine.

However a lot of communities have "live" posts where people watch a tv show or a sports event together. Especially with sports events the actual post text might be really long and requires a lot of scrolling to get past.

For instance a typical live sports thread: https://lemmy.world/post/1156203

I'm sorting by comments by "New" to easily follow the live chat. However to refresh, I need to scroll up about 10 pages on a mobile to get to the top of the post (all the scores and match details are being live updated by a bot in the post body). And then after a refresh I have to scroll all they way back down.

If there was somewhere to just press a refresh button when down in the comments or at the bottom of the post body. I think BaconReader used to have it in the top menu bar of the app. Just an option in the 3 dots menu to refresh would be fine.

Thanks!

Like I said in the last photo, he's a clever boy. We've been playing all the youtube tielfluencer videos to him and he can imitate a few of them. Here's him singing the cookie song.

That was because of websockets. Which are no more in this version so yes all those "random things" bugs from multiple tabs should be fixed.

Thanks again for working on this. I know the little "hackathon" fizzled a bit with only you starting off on something concrete, but I still think it spread a bit of awareness. I've been promoting it in threads where I can, but let me know if you prefer I didn't.

I just think if others promote it, you can't be accused of self-promotion. :-)
