“Here”? That could be any number of communities in any number of instances which may or may not be federating with each other. Personally, I’m happy with the instance my account is on and the communities I subscribe to, perhaps you need to find or create different communities from the ones you currently follow?

You may want to re-learn how to touch type! I’ve noticed myself doing the same thing and I’m seriously thinking of digging up some version of “Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing”

This is not a lemmy support community

I don’t have the energy to help, but i will say you’ve provided very little information. If you want help, you’ll likely have to provide more details, such as… How did you set it up- like what steps did you take to get to the point you’re failing? What tunnel are you talking about? “so it shows a lemmy instance” like the main page? Or an admin page so you can finish setting it up, or… I’m probably forgetting something, but hopefully you get the gist of what I’m saying. You’re likely not going to get much help with what you’ve posted so far

What about “minimal” made you think Trump?

Whoops! missed that part 🤦 very good point

What’s she going for?

Whatever she wants because the UAE welcomes wealth and excessive spending, that’s kind of its whole thing (that and human rights violations). The idea that visiting Dubai is precedented by an interest in history is not grounded in reality. If Dubai was concerned about anything other than excess wealth, why do they keep building things like the burj khalifa and an indoor snow ski slope?

Ignore this, I really misunderstood the comment

Nothing good happens there.

This is incredibly dismissive of two entire countries and cultures. I suspect it’s based out of ignorance or preconceived notions rather than any actual experience or knowledge

“Amoral” 🤣 Like Dubai has any business judging morals

Ignore me, the point went “whoosh” over my head

I think calling Wordpress uncool and the boss a dork diminishes the very real issues that people have with the person and company- issues that are NOT about “coolness”

I think Lemmy developers should focus on developing and supporting Lemmy’s core features and not stuff like novelty bots. Lemmy is not a monolithic entity, so the rules regarding implementing such bots would be up to each instance and then each community on the instance. There’s no technical reason I’m aware of that would prevent such a bot from working, just a question as to whether it would be allowed or even welcomed.

The National Guard is not monolithic either, as it is per service and per state. I.e. Minnesota Air National Guard, Minnesota Army National Guard, Iowa Air… you get it

Asklemmy’s purpose is a place to ask open-ended questions, “an actual topic of discussion”, as the sidebar puts it, its not really meant to just answer questions that could be researched and answered.

Thank you for sharing and no need for any apologies on your part!

I’m making an ass of myself assuming that he’s just a known quantity at this point. I should realize that not everyone was alive, watching those channels on TV then, or that corner of YouTube now! He was on Mythbusters, which was a very popular science entertainment show on the discovery channel from 2003-2018, and his livestreams on the Tested YouTube channel since then are pretty popular where he talks about being a “maker” and all that entails - freelancing, skills, tools, jobs, relationships, etc etc etc.

I can’t think of a particular video where he mentioned cardboard+hot glue, he’s mentioned it a few times because he’s not shy about repeating things- he’d rather convey a point than worry that he’s told a story or anecdote before. I mentioned it here because it really stuck with me with its simplicity- along with a thought in the back of my head that I should get a hot glue gun myself one of these days…

I do not, just passing along the concept. I catch his recorded live streams fairly regularly and I know that he’s mentioned cardboard + hot glue on multiple occasions, especially when “how do I get started?” type questions come up.

I can think of anything, but because lots of packaging is cardboard, I’m reminded that Adam Savage has recommended cardboard and hot glue as a way to get into making props and cosplay and such! It’s such a low barrier to entry and really easy to work with, and surprisingly versatile. Even if you plan on using more robust materials in the future, it can be a cheap way to make a proof of concept

You should probably delete one of these duplicate posts
