The edits are automated from what I understand. There's a regex that does it when the post is created server side, but I imagine automatically removing a user entirely would result in problems. The admins probably want user removals to be more intentional and a result of a human reviewing the activity.

In an effort not to fall too hard into the classic Reddit trope of proclaiming that everyone's partner is a bastard in these kinds of threads, I think there could be some yellow flag reasons for this behavior.

People are strongly conditioned to perform certain behaviors in social situations. Her actions could have been a result of that conditioning, especially if she is trying to be perceived as femme. That is, she's performing "flirty, fun, sexy" in non-intimate situations because it's how she wants to be seen in those moments. That doesn't necessarily mean that she's lying about being aromantic in her more intimate and less guarded interactions with you.

This person is just being a troll. This instance doesn't censor cursing. Here's a giant list of comments on lemmy.ml with cursing present that aren't censored.

This instance does remove slurs and ableism and things like that, though. So, yeah, this person is just angry they can't as easily spew bigotry as they'd like to. Nothing of value is lost.

This sounds like a perfect use-case for setting Junction as your default "browser": https://flathub.org/en/apps/re.sonny.Junction

It shows a dialog when you open a URL, allowing you to specify which browser you want to use each time.

browser selection popup

In theory, you could then open links in your host OS browser usually, but still be able to select the VM browser easily sometimes.

Isn't all of their concern kind of demonstrated to be unfounded? CoMaps forked the exact codebase being discussed and moved to Codeberg already, and they're doing great now. Whatever it is that the Organic Maps team thinks is indispensable on GitHub is clearly not actually an insurmountable challenge to ditch.

I don't want to discourage the effort you put into trying to build something useful, so I'm trying to say this nicely.. you'd probably get more interest if you built a moderation tool that doesn't involve AI.

Lemmy is probably an unlikely crowd to be looking to for positive reception of an AI nanny bot. Even less so on .ml, and even less so on an open source community.

Would games like Magic the Gathering and Gwent now be considered violating this patent? The wording in it seems ridiculously vague, I can barely understand what the patent is describing, and I'm not sure it means what "gamesfray" thinks it does.

There's also GNOME Maps if you enjoy the GNOME look and feel (which I do):

viewing a place

directions to a place

Yesterday I had a nice moment watching my SO use CoMaps for the first time via my phone. I was driving, so couldn't mess with adding an intermediate stop to the navigation, and she did it instead.

Anyhow, she's literally never used the app before, and quickly found the business listing and added it to nav. I mean, she's a smart person so her competence is not a surprise, but it speaks well of CoMaps and OSM that someone who is used to using Google Maps exclusively for years could just pick up this FOSS app and do what she needed painlessly.

It's encouraging to me to see how increasingly nice an experience it is to be able to not use Google or Apple maps at all these days.

I mean, media didn't get copied over from the past, only from the point I connected it on, so it never functioned as a backup. I've still got years of message data on my phone that I want to sync to somewhere else so I can get rid of this phone.

[–] lukecooperatus@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Awesome, thanks! I've already got it connected to desktop since months ago and it's not syncing, so I assume I'll need to disconnect/reconnect in order to trigger the prompt. I'll give it a shot.

How do you do that? I really need to, because my phone storage is full and I don't want to lose Signal media sent over the years by my SO. I've poked around in the settings and can't see any way to backup to desktop.

All I can find is a link that goes to a documentation site that says you can't transfer from Android to Desktop: https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007059752-Backup-and-Restore-Messages#desktop_restore

It's been a while since the last time this was asked, so here goes again: what specific apps do you use Waydroid to run?

Whenever I get the itch to play around with this impressive project, I quickly remember that I can't think of anything to actually do with it. There's already a Linux native app for almost everything that isn't an ad infested game, so I'm curious if anyone has use cases for Waydroid that they can share. I'd love to hear about something cool that I didn't think of!

 

Regardless of whether you enjoyed the plot or acting or other typical measures by which most people will analyze it, I'm curious:

What thoughts do you have about the portrayals of autism in the movie?

Did you find that it was better or worse at representing autism to NT viewers than the first one from 2016?

I believe 1.0.152 is meant to be the version compatible with the new Lemmy release, and it works pretty well as a guest user. Unfortunately, when I try to login to lemmy.ml (which uses the new server version), I get Error: An unknown error has occurred.

Looked through the app and didn't see any official bug report area mentioned, so I hope this is the right place to go for this. If not, sorry for the noise!
