  • I'm sure it's been mentioned, but maybe she could benefit from a sponsor peer? Our puppy was a swimming sponsor for 12 years. Dogs who were terrified of water would come to the pool with our dog and would usually be broken of the fear at least in shallow water within the first 30 minutes. After 3 swims they were almost always on their own after that without any issues. There was only one dog that never swam and that was of a possibly abusive owner.

    So maybe there is a puppy friend that she is fond of that can make her feel at ease? Hope it helps, good luck!

  • How are they opposed to bread? It's impossible to keep up with politics these days. And you can never tell if you're reading an actual post or just more big leaven lobbyist propaganda.

    Well, someone was apparently awake during wonk class. Spot on comrade.

  • Also anything Alex Jones. This right here, is EXACTLY why he does what he does. No PR is bad PR for him. The dumbest move is trying to tell people about how dumb this guy is. It's only feeding him. This is how Trump won. Keep your name in the Zeitgeist. Keep gaslighting your victimization and the victimization of your constituency. Gish. motherfucking. Gallop.

  • but they will continue to come and go, regardless of our input

    I'm not quite sure you understand the problem with climate change. It's not that "they" will come and go, it's that WE will only go. There's no "coming" back with any reasonable immediacy. Or were you arguing that the stones wouldn't be there for exhibition by the jellyfish that would be the only thing left living in the oceans?

    Now, it is my opinion that when Brawndo finally pushes the climate over the tipping point and life as we know it takes its final breath, that natural selection will do what it has always done and though life will change, it will persist in some form. So were humans able to outlast this foreboding obstacle and humanity persists, then so be it, but I honestly doubt they'll give a shit about fucking stonehenge. If there were some life lessons from the past that only stonehenge can communicate, then it has obviously failed.

  • Don't mess up secure boot with bitlocker

    Jump

  • My favorite was finding out that bit locker was enabled on a forced update. The key was saved to the Microsoft account that was used to set up the lappy. Except, I didn't use a Microsoft account because I'm not some tech marionette lemming who needs Gates hand shoved up my ass to tell me how to use my fucking computer. So I used a local account and disabled bitlocker via bios.

    Nothing was lost, but it was still a pain in the dick hole.

  • DOT Announces Rule Requiring Automatic Refunds of Airline Tickets and Service Fees for flights that are canceled or delayed more than 3 hours domestically and 6 hours internationally

    Jump

  • Cash or original form of payment: Airlines and ticket agents must provide refunds in cash or whatever original payment method the individual used to make the purchase, such as credit card or airline miles. Airlines may not substitute vouchers, travel credits, or other forms of compensation unless the passenger affirmatively chooses to accept alternative compensation.

  • Or at least create SCOTUS terms, maybe. Does that do anything? Who could know such things. We need to do something though. The conservative justices aren't legal activists, they are legal evangelicals.

    Funkwhale might be the most overlooked Fediverse project

  • You:

    if people are telling you "this is not for beginners", maybe it would be wise to listen to it?

    Also you:

    I'm among one of those

    So, What gatekeeping you ask? You. And what few you say? Still you.

    But don't let me be the judge on whether or not you are an insufferable prick. So take a peruse around your own post. Let's see how you fared...

  • You still haven't answered my question

    And I'm not going to. It has nothing to do with the point that I was making. It has nothing to do with the quip that I started with. I came neither here nor to you to get advice. I made a sarcastic comment that you literally just confirmed. Thank you.

    And the consolidation and gatekeeping of resources to the few seems just a tad antithetical to the entire foundation of decentralization.

    From join-lemmy.org:

    self hostable, easy to deploy

    "people" are telling me that this isn't easy, but Lemmy seems to think it is. Good luck arguing your way out of that paper bag.

    Jump

  • Look, I hear what you're saying. And no offense intended, but people like you crow about things like fediverse not being supported... All the while, these applications are not supported by their own developers. And unfortunately, not unlike the majority of my experiences with Linux issues, every time I reach out for help I'm told the same old hat story, "this isn't meant for beginners".

    And the "pains that come with learning about self-hosting" are so unnecessary and in my opinion quite apparently avoidable.

    "Well, did you change the port number to this number that isn't referenced anywhere in the documentation? It's pretty obvious to anyone that's been doing this for 20 years - who would be able to recognize that it's a step everyone would need to do to deploy - so there's literally no conceivable reason why that would be included...

    ###IN THE TUTORIAL

    ...Maybe you shouldn't be doing this."

    Funkwhale might be the most overlooked Fediverse project

    Jump

  • Well, as someone who has been trying to launch a functioning Lemmy instance for nearly a year now, I can tell you, knowing not the slightest thing about funkwhale, that I would eat my hat if the documentation isn't an all but absent shit show.

    My favorite part was learning that my domain was creating a completely new cert from lets encrypt with each deployment and no way of recovering them at all. So after 5 attempts, you have to wait 60 days (or whatever) for them to expire. That was awesome. I messaged the devs about that one and they literally said "we didn't think of that"... 😑

    And so much shit goes tits up if you don't deploy it perfectly the very first time. Don't get me wrong, I love the fediverse, but JTFC I hate the fucking fediverse.

  • Why is firefox losing market share? Why don't more people use Firefox?

    Jump

  • I have no doubt that the second that FF gains a sizeable market share they will just turn in to literally every other corporation that has ever existed. They're not special, they're not your friend. They are selling a product to make money. And while they're struggling, they are working their asses off to make a good product that beats the alternatives.

    So until FF announced their intention to DC, I'm not telling a fucking soul.
