It’s the PS2 disc error screen, just before the actual disc read error message displays it does this little red animation. This is like the very beginning of that animation

Good thing I built my own so I don’t gotta ask…unless…I was sleep coding…

Nah, they’re homophones (spelled differently, but pronounced the same, with different meanings)

I mean tbf, they just mean they’re making the smartphone more computer like in that you can install whatever OS you want lol

Doesn’t seem like a SpongeBob episode, but judging how the modern seasons are… ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

In a general sense? Probably

Another big reason, a lot of the earlier PS2 models had a poor quality laser that would go bad really quick

I don’t think the Threadiverse is big enough for it to matter in most cases, this comm is huge, but yet there were 3 posts all day yesterday to it

Plus, memes are perfectly capable of sparking serious discussions and questions to lol

From a different reply:

• Shopping for a new home instance

• Exploring the Threadiverse from different perspectives (the “hot” feed you see can vary quite a bit depending on the instance you’re on lol)

• Learning that the bot intended to better interconnect instance comms may not be doing as good of a job

• Interconnecting wayward or much smaller instances, a couple of them are missing even the big comms, one I was on the other day I needed to manual have it federate with every comm I posted to

• For the creation of comms on fitting instances or just among a regular rotation of general instances so I’m not making a whole bunch on any one instance

• Prevention of a reoccurrence of my imposter problem

It’s better than credit cards IMO, you have a firm set amount of payments and amounts you need to make on a fim schedule (every 2 weeks) with no interest.

Properly managed, it’s a decent way to make big purchases without straining your savings to do it. E.g. you want to make a 600$ purchase and have the money saved for it, but why spend it all when you have a 0 interest way to split that up over time in line with your paychecks? Then you can keep that savings for something truly unexpected

Ofc it’s still debt short term or not, so if you’re horrible at managing debt it’s as bad as any other debt like Credit Cards

Lol just register for an LLC then sign up for like stripe or something so you can take card then BOOM done. Although you’d be losing a little money each time because transaction fees lol

It’s quite convenient that all of your new posts have at least three votes in a very short time frame. You’ve long established yourself as desperate for upvotes with the sheer volume of posts you submit without any effort into any of the posts themselves. Finally having to boost your own material?

Everyone has access to lemvotes.org, prove it

How does having alts erase past post history lmao

Because I’m a dumbass and selected the wrong comm lmao

What was the issue with lemmy.zip? It’s well maintained and the blocklist is quite short

If you want an instance not federated with hexbear, grad and ml, then infosec.pub should do it

.zip is on the short list for sure, the Triad federation though is a detractor for me, but not necessarily a deal breaker. I also don’t want to just default to one of the big instances that every one is on

You once told me that power posters like me are essentially de facto advertisers for an instance, so I’m keeping that in mind as I go through these instances. I would like to promote small instances through my posting, so eventually I’ll probably just starting posting from random instance accounts that I’ve already made

Infosec.pub is decent, but was having issues when I went through it. That was either the one that was sporadically going down or the one that was taking 45+ seconds to post every post (I’d have to check my notes). But I discovered, like you said, it defederates from the entire Triad so that’s a big plus. I’ll revisit it for sure to see if the issues I encountered were just bad timing

If you are using alts to federate communities, that’s fine, but keeping posting from one account would be better, those are two different things

Because I post such a wide variety of content, simply posting is an effective way to discover what comms are and are not federated on an instance (short of writing a bot to do it ofc, but whats the fun in that?)

Also, if an instance is missing big communities, the admins probably didn’t bother setting up Lemmy-federate , and users didn’t bother to ask either, so it’s probably a quite low population instance

That’s true for at least one instance I’ve been on, but I honestly think that bot is not as reliable as it seems…

For other people blocking me, I don’t really care if they do or don’t, it’s just unfortunate unintended side effects for the actual reasons:

Shopping for a new home instance

Lol I post a wide range of content sometimes it just naturally clusters

At least I have a post history ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Be the change you want in the Threadiverse feed
