What does everyone here do when you can’t sleep and are wide awake besides being on phone? [serious] in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 2 points 22 hours ago

I leave my phone further away.
Close enough that I'll hear it if there's an actual emergency, but far enough that I won't reach for it just because I'm bored.

That's enough to take care of most of my mindless night scrolling.

If I just can't fall asleep, sometimes I'll go drift off in the hammock outside or something that'll cool my body a bit.
Tbh, sometimes I just rub one out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Also works as a decongestant.
I'm not a doctor, don't use this as medical advice.

Bruh, I'm paid 37h a week and I've already worked 40h.
If anything, I'm planning on working -8% today.

Why are ghosts never racist? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 42 points 3 weeks ago

Ghost licensing is predatory.
It's easier to just wait until the ghost can be published in the public domain.
Blame Disney.

If it starts fine, but performance drops off a cliff after a while, it might be a heat issue.
I ended up putting such a flaky drive in a bag and wrapping a flexible icepack around it.
Not a great solution, but kinda good enough to get some data off of it.

Trouble Verifying Email in c/main@sh.itjust.works
[–] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I've manually set it to verified.
You should be able to login now.

9nce logged in, you might wanna double check in your lemmy profile, just to make sure there's no typo in there.
As neidu3 mentionned, reaching out through matris might be faster. (Sorry, I know it's not super convenient.)

And... welcome!

Protester shot and killed at 'No Kings' rally in Utah, police say in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 117 points 3 weeks ago (19 children)

allegedly saw Gamboa separate from the crowd of marchers in downtown Salt Lake City, move behind a wall and withdraw a rifle around 8 p.m., Redd said.

When the two men in vests confronted Gamboa with their handguns drawn, witnesses said Gamboa raised his rifle into a firing position and ran toward the crowd, said Redd.

That’s when one of the men dressed in the vests shot three rounds, hitting Gamboa and Ah Loo, said Redd. Gamboa, who police said didn’t have a criminal history, was wounded and treated before being booked into jail.

Emphasis mine. If that's true, that could have become a mass shooting.
Still sucks to be the innocent bystander though.

How would I pop a bag of popcorn without a microwave? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

If you have a microwave, follow the instructions in the bag.

I don’t have a glass lid

I've used a dinner plate as a lid in a pinch.
Careful it might get hot.

I'm proud of you.

Canadian breakfast cereals? (sh.itjust.works)
 

You'd think with all the cereals we're producing, it'd be ubiquitous, but all the stuff at the grocery store was either Kelloggs, Kraft, or General Mills.
I think Shreddies are made in Canada, but owned by Post?

There seemsto be a few more options out west than here in QC.
I already get granola from a small local place which is great, but surely there's a Canadian version of corn flakes or rice krispies or whatnot somewhere.

I'm also open to just making my own.

[Discussion] alien.top bots (sh.itjust.works)

English message:

As some of you may have noticed, there's an instance with 1.1M bots reposting reddit posts and comments accross communities in several other instances.  

I expect there are multiple valid opinions on the subject and this thread is meant to get a feeling of everyone's opinion on the situation. 

You might also want to read lemmy.ca's discussion on that here which is a pretty decent thread about the subject.  

Things that I think need to be pointed out:  

  • alien.top currently has 1.1M bots, only 6 of those are weekly users logging in. 
  • together they've made 1.59M comments accross a multitude of communities in other instances.
  • That project claims to be trying to get reddit users to switch to lemmy. 
  • They have a portal to allow reddit users to claim and take over their bot persona. 
  • alien.top has a single local community, the bots all post on different instances with copies of different subreddits.

I don't have an exhaustive list of such communities,  I haven't found an official one.  I'll post a fewfrom my personal blocklist in a comment below. 

And a note on the upcoming 0.19 release: 

  • the new user-level instance block feature will block all the communities of the blocked instances,  but will not block these users' posts or comments if they are done on another instance's community.  

My opinion isn't any more valid then anyone else's so I'll put it in a comment below.

Our users' input is welcomed.

What do you, dear users of sh.itjust.works, think about federation with them?

Thanks

Message français:

Comme certains d'entre vous l'ont peut-être remarqué, il y a une instance peuplée de 1,1M de bots qui copient ees posts et commentaires Reddit dans plein de communautés sur plusieurs autres instances.

Il y a plusieurs opinions sur le sujet et ce fil de discussion vise à prendre le pouls de l'opinion générale sur la situation.

Je vous suggères de lire la discussion chez lemmy.ca à ce sujet ici, discussion intéressante. 

Quelques points qui, selon moi, doivent être soulignés :

  • alien.top compte actuellement 1,1 million de robots, dont seulement 6 sont des utilisateurs hebdomadaires qui se login.
  • collectivement, ils ont déjà fait 1,59 million de commentaires dans une multitude de communautés dans différentes instances.
  • Ce projet proclame essayer de convertir des utilisateurs de Reddit à passer à Lemmy.
  • Il existe un portail pour permettre aux utilisateurs de Reddit de prendre contrôle de leur version bot.
  • alien.top a une seule communauté locale, les bots publient tous sur différentes instances, des copies de différents subreddits.

Je n'ai pas de liste exhaustive de ces communautés, à première vue, je n'en trouve pas une liste officielle.  Je mettrai dans un commentaire ci-dessous quelques communautés que j'ai bloqué au niveau personnel. 

Pour finir,  une note sur la version 0.19 de lemmy qui s'en vient :

  • La nouvelle fonctionnalité pour bloquer une instance au niveau d'un uutilisateur bloquera toutes les communautés d'une instance bloquée, mais ne bloquera pas les publications ou les commentaires de ces utilisateurs s'ils sont publiés dans une communauté d'une autre instance.

Mon opinion n'est pas meilleur qu'une autre et je mettrai plutôt dans un commentaire ci-bas.

Les commentaires de nos utilisateurs sont les bienvenus.

Que pensez-vous, cher utilisateurs de sh.itjust.works de la fédération avec eux?

Merci

As always, if you see any, report it.   Thanks,

Defederating illegal instances illégales defédérées (sh.itjust.works)
 

Annonce en français:
Des ajouts ont récemment été faits à la liste d'instances bloquées.

Comme celles-ci étaient des instances connues pour héberger du contenu illégal, incluant des communautés pedo, loli, etc. elles ont été bloquées sans discussion préalable dans l'!agora@sh.itjust.works.

Vous pouvez consulter à tout moment la liste d'instances bloquées au bas de cette [page] (https://sh.itjust.works/instances) dans la section Blocked Instances.

Merci !

English message:We've recently added a few instances to the block list.

We usually made a discussion and vote in !agora@sh.itjust.works, but this latest batch was a bunch of instances confirmed to be hosting CSAM, CP, pedo and/or loli content.
Since these are illegal, they've been removed without Agora threads.

At any time, you can see the current list of blocked instances here, all the way down in the Blocked Instances section.

Thanks

Lemmy-wide gore spam this morning / spam de ce matin (sh.itjust.works)
 

Message en Français:
Comme certains ont pu constaté, il y a eu beaucoup de spam de contenu gore ce matin a travers une panoplie de communautés. 

L'utilisateur en question a été banni localement et leur contenu effacé.   Ils ne sont pas encore bannis sur leur instance mère, mais vous ne devriez plus tomber dessus tant que vous naviguez avec votre compte sh.itjust.works.

Désolé pour ceux qui ont eu à subir cette merde et merci à tous ceux qui l'ont signalé.  N'hésitez pas à signaler ce genre de chose quand ça arrive, soit via le petit drapeau (report), ou sur le chat matrix. 

Pour balancer le gore, voici un chat qui dort: 

Miaou

English message:As some of you may have had the displeasure to see, there was a user spamming links to gore content earlier today accross several unrelated communities.

They've since been banned locally and their content removed.  While they have yet to be banned on their home instance, you shouldn't be exposed to their content as long as you browse from here your sh.itjust.works account.

Thanks to everyone for reporting it, feel free to reach out either through the flag report icon or the matrix chat whenever something like that happens again. 

Here's a cat to balance out the gore: 

 

Meow
