No, ignorant takes like yours are the real problem.
Is this Reddit?! (Looks up at title bar in confusion.)
No…well, this is odd.
It’s almost certainly hiding vents or pipes that needed to be routed there. As for the carpeting, somebody no doubt thought it would be cool, or else if for sound dampening.
A Russian commander with an apparent habit of posting his running routes on social media has been shot dead while jogging in the city of Krasnodar.
Excellent OpSec, those Russians have!
WTF, I ain’t watching an hour long video on a stupid fridge! I’ll just watch the first few minutes and see what’s up…

One hour later…
Okay, that was really interesting. I really love this channel.
TIL the Technology Connections guy is on Lemmy via Mastadon.
And that’s awesome!
What happens when a community in Lemmy is left without a moderator?
Each person who has posted in that community in the last year must join in group ritualistic combat with each other. The venue, type of combat, and weapons are decided based upon the topic of the community. So quite easy for communities about knife making or baseball, and somewhat murkier for communities about etymology. The first person to lose in combat and the last person standing are indentured into permanent moderation duties.
Freedom of expression is very much a two way street, and does not mean ‘free from consequences’ if someone says something vile.
I am quite free to make rules, and enforce them, for the communities I moderate, just as someone else is free to find a forum where, for example, they can express vile racist, homophobic slurs.
Tolerance cannot extend to tolerating others’ intolerance, or discourse is not possible.
This:
Article summarized by AI below
and this:
The article argues that artificial intelligence (AI) is not a threat to humanity
is a rather funny juxtaposition of statements. Of course, an evil AI that was a threat to humanity would summarize the article that way!
This has been known for a while, but this information seems to be gaining more traction lately with the general public. The recommendations are to ensure you have an exhaust fan that vents to the outside above your range, and to use it each and every time your range is turned on. Of course, that’s not something most people do.
A Lemmy community for retro technology:
For Lemmy:
Stylus. And then find Lemmy scripts on UserStyles.world to install into Stylus and you can change the look and feel for Lemmy to make it more like Reddit, or whatever. I currently use a combination of ‘Better Lemmy’ and ‘Old reddit-ish Lemmy’.
For general browsing:
uBlock Origin for ads
Privacy Badger for tracking
For YouTube:

Yeah, for certain kinds of live conversations while involved in a group activity, it works fine. But only for that, in my opinion.
Yup, I agree wholeheartedly! It’s just not my thing.
Agreed! Definitely not my thing.
I was a wee bit surprised (but not really, I guess) when just before the Reddit blackout everyone on Reddit was spamming their relevant Discord links for the relevant subreddit.
I could only think, “That’s no better!!”
We’ll see if that changes.
To add to that, Discord is an entirely different kind of interaction. Fine if that’s what you want, but not fine if you want something a bit more…static.
The auto-refreshing front page is very frustrating to use.
Sounds like that’s being fixed soon.
Oh, there was nothing wrong with the gist of what they said, it was the personal commentary at the beginning that was unneeded. If they had skipped that then their point would have been likely considered more thoughtfully by those reading.
