OMG! That’s what those crystals are!

The site wouldn’t load for me, but I did manage to capture an archive:

Might I suggest using Discord as an alternative to Reddit?

I found the juxtaposition of your comment to the one below yours to be pretty funny.

I support swappable batteries to avoid unnecessary e-waste or any other reason anyone has.

My arguing with you about the pros and cons of spare batteries vs chargers was misguided, because you’re entitled to have your opinions and I don’t see why I should care about your justifications for those opinions.

When my battery gets low, I’m often in the middle of something. Watching a video, playing a game, chatting with people. Things I don’t want to stop and have to try to resume a minute later when I could just plug in and not miss a beat.

Shutting down, swapping a battery, and restarting cannot be done in 15 seconds. I don’t really think you were being literal, but you’re making it seem like it would be entirely trivial. I don’t think it is.

Carrying a second battery is carrying another box around

😂 You all are funny

I dunno. Having to shutdown your phone to swap a battery is a very big negative in my mind.

I think you got the nail on the head! Let’s call them spezes. Excellent idea!

I don’t mean the culture. Is that what you mean? I meant the software. The software itself is a clone of Reddit. It works nearly identically, except that it’s a federation of servers.

That why I said it’s a clone of reddit, and that why I replied how I did, because I thought it was silly that you would say otherwise.

As for the culture, I hope it never becomes reddit, but it seems like it’s too late. It seems I have to block some new shitposting community every day.

But I mostly spend my time in niche communities of nice people talking about Zelda or cats, and not about whether Lemmy is a reddit clone or not because that’s a really stupid conversation to have.

BTW, I think your reply was more rude than me saying “you kid yourself”, but whatever. I didn’t actually mean to hurt your feelings.

Orrrrr… maybe I just think it’s too many syllables.

Don’t kid yourself. Lemmy is 100% a Reddit clone. It was literally made as a replacement for Reddit.

Four syllables is too many.

Is wefwef even an app, or just a web page that you can “install” as a web page that opens without a URL bar?

I agree. So far it’s the best one I’ve used on Android. It has things like settings for font sizes.

UPDATE: I find myself using Liftoff more now. I couldn’t exactly tell you why. The only things it’s missing is an option to make the comment font larger.

It absolutely will help. It doesn’t need to be anything fancy. Any blanket that would keep you warm in bed will work, even better than blackout curtains since a blanket will have a good R-value.

Blackout curtains like others have recommended are not great insulators. They simply have an opaque, rubbery, white backside to reflect and block sunlight. The will block currents of warm air from moving between the rooms, but a blanket does that, too, and provides a higher R-value.

I live in an RV van and had blackout curtains between the front and back of the van for years before I decided to also add a quilt, and it made a huge difference in keeping the back warm in winter, and keeping the sun-caused heat out of the back in summer.

When I lived in an apartment I used to have a blanket between the kitchen and living room. The living room had an AC unit, and the kitchen had… an oven. The difference the blanket made was astronomical!

Lasagna! So effin good.

If you don’t mind me being pedantic, “et al.” is short for “et alia” which means “and other people”. “Etc”, short for “et cetera”, means “and other things”. You only use “et al.” when talking about people not named in a list.

The More You Know 🌠

It’s the most metallic, awful tasting thing. It feels like I’m allergic to it or something. Like it makes my mouth subtly burn.
