I see more engagement across my Lemmy feeds every week. It’s definitely smaller and slower here but there are real relationships and communities forming. I think the fediverse is strongly positioned to outlive and maybe even outgrow closed social ecosystems. If you’re frustrated with a lack of a certain kind of content on Lemmy make it your responsibility to go create or share some of that content.

Geocities, Myspace, Digg, Reddit all started somewhere. I think any good underlying framework (federated social networks) that enables strong communities will always stand a chance. I really do get early reddit vibes on here.

Also Mac here. I started with a linux laptop but still have to do some desktop support work for the company and since they all use Mac it’s just easier to dogfood it. At least I have a decent terminal emulator.

Let’s go

really appreciate you reporting back, thanks for sharing!

Seriously, some solid snack game there, they fucking missed out

Seriously, this was pretty cool, thanks for sharing!

Neat! Thanks for sharing!

This is an underrated comment here

Oh yeah, this is what I do.

I missed something here didn’t I? Anyone have a link?

Haven’t enjoyed the Hularama episodes much until this one. Felt like they managed to land closer to home this time. Maybe we’ll get some episodes we’ll be proud to call Futurama 🤞.

I think it is measured and professionals who work in areas where this was relevant probably track this number among many others. I think the real question you are asking is why it is always framed as a % of GDP in public discussion and news reporting. Some people here point out how % of GDP can be more useful for comparing across countries with vastly different sized economies but I think we all know the real answer has more to do with how people perceive the value differently by using the larger number. Framing government debt as a % of GDP serves the zeitgeist, whatever that is.

I got upset about this as a child. Years of adults of telling me that the moon was a night only thing and it was all lies.

I understand this reference and I approve o7

I dig these vibes so much

makes me proud to be a lemming

I mean there are dozens of us here 😆. But seriously, I know I’m not as stoked about the new seasons, it’s just not the same. It’s a bit weird seeing the resurrected corpse of one of your favorite shows stumbling around and repeating jokes it used to tell.

ss -tulpn was a welcome find for me. I have it memorized for netstat and dislike always having to install it on a new box, very handy tool
