My bootstraps broke when I pulled them harder.

Turns out the local company that made bootstraps for 125 years was bought out by a hedge fund, which promptly fired all of the workers and subcontracted manufacturing to a company in Sri Lanka who could make them much cheaper by using inferior materials and by paying the Sri Lankan workers in 6 months what a fired local worker made in a day.

Ironically, the hedge fund CEO with the MBA he received as a legacy admission to Cornell only wears slippers because fuck you, I’m the boss.

Canadian confirmed, eh.

This is the gonk I’m looking for

Ah, the rarely seen “narpyarp”

An individual instance can be load balanced pretty easily, but that’s on the admin of that instance to implement.

Pfft - everyone knows you need a soul to get online

Don’t worry about Phoenix - they’re always blue

Month 5: Sound not working again because you read about Pipewire on the Arch wiki

Rapunki, when he joined the Seven

Thanks for the thorough writeup! It’s worth noting that the captcha will be back in the next version, but not exactly sure when it will be released.

They removed it during the switch from web sockets (which apparently took a lot of time and effort to keep updated), but someone submitted a pull request for a non-web socket version of the captcha code, which was accepted.

So hopefully we’ll all be able to update to the new version soon.

You can create an account on a single Lemmy instance/server, and use that one account on that instance to subscribe to other communities on other instances. Those communities then show up in your subscribed “feed” on the server where your account is.

You can see all the posts from all the communities you’ve subscribed to on your feed on the instance you signed up on, without needing a client app, or you can install one of a few apps for either Android or iPhone. On these apps, you sign into your account by providing the address for your “home” Lemmy instance, and then enter your username and password for your account on that instance. Then you’ll see your feed and everything you’ve subscribed to.

You can post on any community on any server you’ve subscribed to using that one account, and your home instance will sync your posts to that community in the same way it syncs posts from your subscribed communities to your home server so you can see them when you look at your feed.

Which probably lifted it from the 1992 movie “Army of Darkness”, starring Bruce Campbell:

Ash: Alright you primitive screw heads, listen up. You see this?

This…is my boomstick! It’s a twelve-gauge double barrel Remington. S-Mart’s top of line. You can find this in the sporting goods department.

That’s right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids,Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It’s got a walnut stock, cobalt steel barrel, and hair trigger. Shop smart, shop S-Mart.

They put it on that Microsoft site called GitHub - Linus is gonna be so pissed!
