Kagi’s pretty good and has a Fediverse search feature, but it’s paid. I don’t mind paying, but there’s also no way to do private searches that way, so I’m not going to use it as my main search engine. It’s been good at hunting down memes on Lemmy that I want to find again though.

Subscribed, I’d like a USA news community that tries to somewhat eschew politics. Yeah, politics seeps into everything, but seeking out news that doesn’t lean into it is valuable given how easy it is to find political news elsewhere on Lemmy.

The trick is that they haven’t read it either, tankies just copy/paste stuff with titles that sound nice

I’d recognize those chins anywhere! This is from Jungle Comics #004. Fletcher Hanks has a very distinctive style, now that I’ve read his stuff due to this community, I can spot it a mile away.

I mostly care about how much caffeine I get, which I understand to be the same regardless of how much ice there is. Generally, small or medium is 2 shots of espresso, and a large is 3 shots.

discuss.online would be a good candidate, but you’d want to get buy-in from @jgrim@discuss.online as well

Correct!

“farleft” is a fine crossword answer. Equating “far left” with “extremely liberal” is pretty silly IMO though. A much better hint would’ve been “Political faction advocating for radical social change” or something like that

The clue is “Involuntarily made noise while laughing, perhaps”, so sure

Some discussion over here:

Notably, someone links to this critique:

https://arstechnica.com/health/2025/01/controversial-fluoride-analysis-published-after-years-of-failed-reviews/

The study, published in JAMA Pediatrics, is a meta-analysis, a type of study that combines data from many different studies—in this case, mostly low-quality studies—to come up with new results. None of the data included in the analysis is from the US, and the fluoride levels examined are at least double the level recommended for municipal water in the US. In some places in the world, fluoride is naturally present in water, such as parts of China, and can reach concentrations several-fold higher than fluoridated water in the US.

The authors of the analysis are researchers at the National Toxicology Program at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. For context, this is the same federal research program that published a dubious analysis in 2016 suggesting that cell phones cause cancer in rats. The study underwent a suspicious peer-review process and contained questionable methods and statistics.

Thanks, I hate it. Wanted to reflexively downvote 👌

One can hope 🤞

Good timing, I was just wondering about the API and posted a question over there 👍

read that wrong and put my life savings into dogecoin, now what?

Good call, edited to add a warning

Somebody isn’t sanitizing their inputs properly. Like putting a bandaid on a heart attack

Is this a thread for recommending communities that aren’t politics, news, memes, or tech? If so, here’s some comic-related communities:

• !outofcontextcomics@lemmy.world
• !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee
• !smbc@midwest.social
• !oglaf@midwest.social (generally NSFW!)
• !peanuts@midwest.social

And a few other miscellaneous communities:

• !cassettefuturism@lemm.ee
• !demakes@sh.itjust.works
