If I ever buy any clothing online (so far I think it has been shoes that was very hard to find), I first go to physical shops that either have the same thing I want (probably at a higher price) or have the same model, but in a different color scheme and then go online to buy it :)
Well since around a year ago they decided to give some direct monetary incentive to farm upvotes and gold, as people weren't already doing this to sell accounts.
Yeah, a real problem solver would probably be to remove the incentive for someone to do this.
It would probably be far less likely for someone to do that on lemmy, as there is no karma and you dont get paid for upvotes or something. (Still there are incentives, like creating credibility, celebrity accounts, maybe influence public opinion, self-pleasure from seeing upvotes to "your" posts/comments etc., but they arent such potent incetives as directly monetary incetives.)
I'd suggest Stirling PDF, just get the
Stirling-PDF.jar file from the releases. It does really lots of stuff (though I had some issues with creating pdfs with multiple pages per page). It open a port for the service to run locally and once you close it, it also closes the port.
I also use libre office draw (or firefox printing menu) to create pdfs with multiple pages per page.
There's also xournal as some other people have mention that has some editing capabilities.
Also why would they come for you if you are progessive and leftist? I think, here in Greece at least, it's far more likely people to be against you if you are a fascist. And I dont think Greece is much of a progressive country.🤷
And besides all that, I think it's kinda easy to get a rough idea of people's beliefs anyways.
I had this kind of revelation like 2days ago when I woke up to go to the toilet, drink some water and sleep again. I don't even know exactly why this thought came to me, it was a big discovery. Wanted to make a showerthought or til post, but never made. What a cool fun fact.
(Also it's even more amazing the fact that someone made a post about cd rippers here (on an already obscure platform) and both you and I read this post. Wow.)
Edit: I recently found K3B as I'm in the process of moving to NixOS from win10. Seems like a good program.
I don't have much to add here and I haven't paid much attention if the problem gets worse (though I think freely licensed content is rather important too), but this year I found some anarchist (and in general some hard-left leaning) bands and music artists that provide their music for free and it's sooo nice, makes me want to donate to them:)
Also as I'm learning linux I've found some open source books which is very nice of them too.
Ok that's interesting, how can I build it? Cuz it sounds hard and possibly more expensive.😅
I suppose I have to somehow rent a server or rent physical rooms across my continent to put my servers (and buy internet connection for each location) to maintain a network. Plus set up the network. Isnt that too complicated? Is there any easier solution?😅
While it might seem obvious, I know people who just dance on spot in public when they hear a song. They might not even hear a song, they might sing it instead. I also know people who like to dance in their room (as someone else here mentioned). They might not use the very complex moves though, I dont know if you ask specifically for these.
People probably use more "serious" moves in dance classes/events/clubs.
PS. I'm too shy to dance and I ~always admire people who do (especially when you see that they don't do it forcefully, they just express themselves). I'm doing some dance classes to improve my situation, hopefully I might make it, or at least I'll have tried🤷
Is this why such posts get so downvoted? Do people on lemmy really think that those posters defend the other party?
Aren't we (the users of lemmy) supposed to lean vaguely on the left by a large factor?😅
When I see posts like this one here, I just get frustrated to see that guy using his mighty power for this, when the US is about to sink further into fascism, harming many many people in the process.
I don't even really care that much that he lied in the past that he wouldnt pardon his son, I just get angry to see that of all things that he could do in this very critical time he has, he's essentially securing his family while he is peacefully letting the country and its people sink. It just kinda verifies it once again that they don't care much about the people, losing the elections for them it meant that they might have reduced profits.
I get that people would react badly on such post during the election, cuz they could allow the fascists to win, but the elections are now over, the results can't change very much.😅
Doesn't the majority of the people here see it as I do?
Yeah, I'd want to hear an opinion from someone who actually downvoted it, cuz I still dont exactly get what's wrong with the meme that would give it such a bad score.😅
Well what I did 3years ago, really cut down my usage of YT:
I switched to NewPipe. I got angry with tge deterioration of YT and the fact that they hid dislikes made me angry. So, I deleted the yt app and installed NewPipe. Newpipe doesnt support yt accounts, I was too lazy to add my subscription and set the default screen to an empty screen.
I used to watch yt for around 2hours per day (mainly memes, but in the further past I used to watch more sciency-stuff) and now I spend around 15minutes per day (mainly music or tutorials(?), though, lol, I use other apps/platforms more, like lemmy). I think the fact that the period I deleted YT it was a period of various changes, might helped me change my daily yt consumption too.
I really liked the green/transparent combo, people have even commented on my case, cuz it matched my outfit.😆 (Over time that translucent green becomes dark, less-transparent green, something closer to the black frame variant, but still looks good for me lol.)
If you use a mozilla account it automatically installs addons that you have on other browsers, that might be why you think it's installed by default.😅
