Left SJW due to inconsistent federation policy and not putting up federating / defederating Hexbear up to community vote like others before.

    Regular users subscribe to communities they like and occasionally browses “All” to explore what else there is, knowing 99% will be irrelevant to their interests.

    You and Lemmygrad people openly talk interfering with other instances so don’t play coy. Your astroturfing attempts are transparent to anyone with a pair of eyes or a screen reader.





  • You’ve read 14 book series multiple times? That’s enormous investment that’s probably setting unrealistic expectations.

    I’ve only started the first one to die out of boredom quickly so I can’t imagine repeatedly getting through a slog first few books supposedly are. My girlfriend read everything after the first season and once she was finished she did a re-watch which she enjoyed, in part because it’s different. Second season has higher production value but seems to be confusing with the amount of changes so far. I’m following along because the themes are interesting and there’s nothing so bad that would discourage me.

    Even without reading everything it’s fair to assume that this couldn’t be a faithful adaptation. They’ll likely have to merge more story lines, characters, then remove some things entirely and it’ll still be a challenge to fit this into amount of seasons that’s reasonable to produce. The Expanse did plenty of that but it still had roughly a season per book, and that was with a book series that Bezos personally enjoys.

    No idea, I tried out Bean while it was in open test flight and was confused when the app dev went ahead with advertising this feature once it went paid. It’s definitely a standout among other Lemmy clients but unfortunately it’s half baked. I remained subscribed to this community to keep an eye out for when it is properly implemented.







  • How about banning public book burning in general? Not a lot of good memories related to that.

    Want to keep burning books? Have waste collection services provide a pickup point. Then they can do it in some industrial incinerator so you’ll have your book burned but without providing media with an easy outrage (unless you wanted outrage?).

    Book burning seems to be a tool of right wing extremism, even when it’s used against right wing extremists of some other kind, there’s very little benefit to the society.

    Also obligatory, fuck organized religion.












  • I think it’s just the first step since VBA is in a dire need of a replacement.

    Around the time Office 365 rolled out and replaced Office 2023 at my old job we’ve had a crapload of old VBA tools just refuse to work. Those tools were in use for 10-15 years sometimes with barely any maintenance required.

    Then with O365 some calls to certain 3rd party libraries resulted in Excel crashing without any single error message, stack, nothing. At that time everyone understood they need to get off that ship ASAP, corporate policies got super strict on end user created stuff. PowerBI and Power Automate are not there to replace it and I think MS feels threatened.
