I had the opposite situation several times. Conversations that involved fair quantities of alcohol derailed gradually, and afterwards I realized everyone's attitude had shifted in a more aggressive direction, including my own. So this wouldn't be a useful strategy for myself 😊.

Is this to be taken seriously or is it just republican trolling?

What was the reason? Some kind of server glitch because Palestine is not recognized as a state by the US?

Same age. I actually enjoy going out with friends from time to time. But the gravity of my couch has grown by a lot with the years.

Plus the Apple AppStore, I assume.

I may be seeing some people on the left taking extremes. But the Democrats as a whole? They seem to be pretty moderate, compared to european standards. Care to elaborate?

Biden wasn't popular, I give you that.

So if russian meddling had made ~2% Americans vote red, that would have been enough for the popular vote. Depending on the Distribution, Trump wouldn't have been elected.

It's really not an excuse. Russia and China are both trying to influence politics in the US and in Europe. It's up to us to put a lid on it.

Those are some dramatic and emotional shots. I like how each picture is telling a story. RIP Fatima.

This is an older slogan, but in times of boycotting american products it comes with an extra punch.

As reported by Reuters, the lawsuit was filed by Dan Ackerman against Apple, screenwriter Noah Pink, Marv Studios, the Tetris Company, and others. The lawsuit alleges that “Tetris” is “substantially similar in almost all material respects” to his book published in 2016 entitled “The Tetris Effect.”

The lawsuit says:

The movie entitled “Tetris” demonstrated the confiscation of Dan Ackerman’s original work and creation of his book “The Tetris Effect.” Plaintiff Ackerman’s book took a unique approach to writing about the real history of Tetris, as it not only applied the historical record, but also layered his own original research and ingenuity to create a compelling narrative non-fiction book in the style of a Cold War spy thriller. Mr. Ackerman’s literary masterpiece, unlike other articles and writings, dispelled of the emphasis on the actual gameplay and fans, and instead concentrated on the surrounding narrative, action sequences, and adversarial relationship between the players. This was the identical approach Defendants adopted for the Tetris Film, without notable material distinction, but often resonating the exact same feel, tone, approach, and scenes as the book introduced several years prior. As demonstrated herein, it becomes readily apparent that the Tetris film is substantially similar in almost all material respects including specific chapters and pages of said book that were simply adopted from the book to the film, without Plaintiff’s knowledge, authorization, or consent.

Ackerman says that he sent a pre-release copy of “The Tetris Effect” to the Tetris Company in July 2016. CEO Maya Rogers, however, allegedly instructed the company not to “license any of the Tetris intellectual property, such as its name and image, for any motion picture or television project.” (...)

 

I'd like to see a button that hides a post from my timeline and fills up the slot with the next interesting thing. Well, yes, just like Reddits hide post feature.

 

I had my subreddits neatly organized into different categories with several multis. Is there a feature (planned) in Lemmy that can recreate this?

 

I activated desktop notifications in my settings: Settings > Show Notifications for New Posts.

They appear as a bubble in MacOs, but I can't do anything with them. There is no link that opens.

Can I do something about that?

 

I'm trying to search for communities or keywords like on the Lemmy browser version. I'm probably just missing something.
