I've been using MetaGer for a long time and have been very satisfied with it. So sad to see it go. Time to look for a new search engine.

And that "no poop challenge" that was everywhere on lemmy about a year ago. Not sure whether that was a lemmy thing or wider, as I don't use anything besides lemmy.

I'm glad a local culture is growing here naturally, but I didn't expect it to be beans, jeans and no poop

I got the notification that it's on sale now. I'm buying it today and can't wait to play it when I get the time

Thanks for mentioning Photon! I just tried it and it has a much better look and feel than the default lemmy UI. Though I noticed that I cannot collapse comment chains (or don't know how to), and on one occasion when someone posted a huge format video in the comments, the video was rendered over the comments below it, which didn't happen in the default UI. But other than that, it's great!
All in all I wouldn't mind if this were the default frontend, I'll probably keep using it myself.

I know how you feel. I often find myself typing :w into notepad/word at work to save something. Or when I log into a machine that doesn't have the vim extension in vscode I constantly type /something to search, only to realize that I actually wrote that in the file. Then using 'u' to undo just adds more characters and people look at me like I'm on some drugs. Just embrace it!

Interesting, I thought their beaks were just some hard material, like our nails. Didn't know that there's bloodflow there.

Exactly my experience. I often heard stories of vegans being like that, but I never ever saw it so I thought it was just made up to belittle vegans.

Then I joined lemmy and found out that I'm apparently in favour of massacres, slavery and rape because I consume meat/milk/eggs from time to time.

I imagine the vast majority of vegans just go about their lives and resprectfully discuss the ethics of animal consumption when the topic comes up, but these loud militant members really make vegans look bad and they sure as hell make it so that even less people consider going vegan

I remember seeing to mod in the post commenting on someone's mention of North Korea. First he posted an image detailing the deaths caused by the US and South Korea during the Korean war, and that was it, no mention about NK specifically. Later he said that there was no proof that NK is brutally repressing its citizens. Then when someone said how everyone who fled NK said so, he said how they only do it for the shock value to get stories out and make money out of that, or something like that.

Basically people like that find anything anti-US as good, and if you say anything bad about those countries, they'll ask for proof and then call whatever you provide fake.

That is a big question which I am sadly not equiped enough to answer adequately, as I have not invested that much time into anarchist works. What I can give is an example from Kropotkin's book "Mutual Aid":

He mentions how in village societies every dispute was treated as a comunal affair. If no resolution could be found, the case was brought to a group of people (can't remember specifically how they were chosen), and they would pass a verdict and resolution. The disputing parties could then either accept the verdict, or they would be excluded from the community. By excluded I mean that they would not enjoy the hospitality and aid of other members, and would thus have to leave the community. So if you are deemed a problematic member and won't change accordingly, nobody would exert power over you, you would just cease to be a part of the community. Obviously if someone got violent, self-defence would be acceptible.

As for feminism, I know that there is a thing called "anarcha feminism", but I don't know any details.

And that's very unfortunate that that's the most common perception of anarchism, because all anarchist theory focuses on how cooperation beats competition. The "anarchy" in the name means that nobody has rule over someone else, but rather all members voluntarily help one another because it's the most efficient and safest way of living.

You might be thinking of this:

Where he mentioned that the desktop is unique in that it has to support thousands of different devices for all kinds of people, and that most people don't really care what their computer is running as long as it works.

Yeah, Adrienne is amazing, as are all the band members. But there's just something to her vocals... The only band I listened to religiously before Seven Spires was Sascha Paeth's Masters of Ceremony, and guess who the vocalist is.

AFCH is sooo much darker and heavier that the previous albums. I regularly get goosebumps from listening to "Where Sorrows Bear my Name"
