That’s no moon. It’s a space station.

So, Professor Jenkins, my old nemesis! We meet again, except this time, the advantage is mine! Quack!!!

I don’t know what Cohost was but I’m pessimistic about Lemmy these days. Note that the link is to an article moaning about the centralization of sites like Reddit and that Cohost (whatever that was) failed because it was run by the same type of people. At first I didn’t click on the link because it says “audio” so I expected it to be audio and I didn’t feel like listening to one. It’s a written article though.

I looked him up and he is English. Weren’t English sailors called Limeys because of the lime juice in their rations, specifically for scurvy prevention? He should have signed up with the Admiralty instead of the pirates.

wtf.

IDK what Boost is here, but Voyager and the standard web UI can both turn off the vote display.

I turned off vote display and rarely miss seeing the votes. See also Facebook Demetricator.

Live chat doesn’t really fit though I don’t see why it would have large storage requirements. Posting on profiles might be a good idea though.

Either of those would be a general Lemmy thing, not specifically lemmy.world which is just one instance.

Reverse defenestration (throwing Windows out of your computer)! Congrats!

Interesting, thanks, I didn’t know anything about that. I’ve probably looked at the book at some point, but don’t remember anything about it.

Dare I ask?

I need explainxkcd.com, but for memes.

Paywalls just don’t mix that well with federation. The teasers are basically ads, and why would fediverse volunteers want to propagate some company’s ads? The non-federated model they are using now seems fine.

Wait their articles are paywalled. Are they only going to federate the clickbait teaser intros?
