  • Do they normally give membership to only people with scientist credentials? Does Musk have scientist credentials?

  • This has also been my speculation, but it seems there a civil lawsuit in the US, from a Floridian victim.

    From the FT on the 17th of February (paywalled):

  • They are indeed wanted in the UK. I too don't believe they will be extradited to the UK for those cases. Looks like the brothers got at least 4 years of freedom on American soil.

  • Is that a Trump bargaining chip before the talks with Starmer?

  • "Access Denied

    Our apologies, the content you requested cannot be accessed."

  • Samesies. KeePass works great for me as well, storing it on a server so it's accessible for both phones (using KeePassXC), and desktop using the web app for keeweb.info (app.keeweb.info).

  • On desktop, either the vanilla PWA for Lemmy, or alexandrite.app. I Really like alexandrite.

    On the phone, I flip between Thunder, Summit, Sync, and Connect. Gotta keep a tab on how they develop, and I like them all, for different reasons.

    Edit: my current preferred client on mobile is Thunder. Like you say, it feels like a modern way of browsing Lemmy, it's really good.

  • Unlike twitter, if there are UI issues, people have a lot of options to try different clients, both mobile and web. I don't use one only, I flip between a bunch of them, both on web and mobile. Sometimes the vanilla Lemmy experience is what you want, other times someone might have made a great ui for browsing one specific community that you subscribe to.

    I'm also somewhere against the argument of it being difficult to pick a server, too difficult to know if it's the right one for me, etc etc. In other parts of life, people make decisions on this all the time, day in day out, without batting an eyelid, and even on issues with a bigger impact on them, than which federated instans they sign up to a service on. Mobile phone subscriptions, which email provider you should use, what internet provider you should sign up with.

    For some reason, social media seems to be one of these areas where we think it's totally fine that monopolies exist, and options are not... an option. We need to resocialise the idea that it doesn't hurt to make a conscious choice about where you lay your identity online, and what you sink your time and attention into.

  • I tried to like Magic Earth, but I haven't gotten used to it yet.

    Organic Maps is great. Although addresses can sometimes be a bit iffy to search for, unless you type them exactly as they are written. Probably also depends on where in the world you are searching.

  • What voting system would be a better fit, for a better reflection of voter preference?

  • I liked them a lot before I read this. Now I like them even more (:

    I remember getting their newsletter where they would regularly announce live shows in NYC. It's nice having live music on tap like that.

  • Never managed to catch them playing live, so I'm well jealous!

  • Anything Kristine Hersh has touched, especially 50 FOOT WAVE

  • You might like some of the output of Elysian Fields (Jennifer Charles, Oren Bloedow). Maybe in particular their earlier stuff, like their Bleed Your Cedar (1996) album:

    They've made many a fantastic albums though, worth checking out.

  • I love this idea. If these were to be made available in London, the lines would be endless.
