Never heard the phrase sealioning before, but I have seen it everywhere.

Environmental change activists? They have pretty authoritarian views on certain subjects, even if they are more “liberal” and alternative views?

You are missing a key feature of that roundabout, the first sign leading up to it, and the “clock” theory.

Imagine an analogue clock. Anything between 12:00 and 6:00 you use the right hand lane, regardless of the shape of the roundabout in real life.

Anything between 6:00 and 12:00 you use the left hand lane. Again. Regardless of what the actual real world layout of the roundabout it.

The sign shows that the left lane is not to go “straight ahead”, even though you are staying on the A610 and staying on the “same road”

Once you got past those first two exits, you would then switch from lane 2 to lane 1, as per the sign on the roundabout.

So normally left would be to continue, in this specific case, right is to continue on the A610, and the people “cutting in front of you” are correct. Well, they shouldn’t cut, but they are not expecting you to still be in lane 1

Except when a sign states otherwise. In this case left lane is exit 1 and 2, and right lane is the others. Even if you are “exiting at 12:00” / straight over.

why are they blue!!!

Literally chose not to buy a powerbank because the power button flashed blue as bright as possible. my PC has blue LED’s on the front for status indicators, and i put some black nail polish over them to block out about 80% of the light.

Then get an offline password manager. I have used DataVault on my phone for years. No subscription needed.

I use Reddit for duckduckgo searches (if they lead me there) and to look for info. I interact and post to Lemmy.

Yes and no. Keeping the spammers away yes, but there is still so much more useful stuff that appears on Reddit.

I had the same with mastodon. How they explain it still makes no sense to me, and it seems like some strange echo chamber where youonly discuss 1 topic, whereas twitter is everything, and you just follow what you like.

Turns out I just don’t like the twitter format anyway.

Lemmy.world does a good job simulating what Reddit does, but I don’t think it will replace Reddit any time soon

I specifically use Reddit for the data retention and ease of finding “old” information, unlike basically other social media which scrubs it from any search even seconds after you looked at it (even if they still store the data)
