Sooo, who wants to develop the open source hookup app based on the Fediverse?

Or anything the devs can do to make it not look goofy.

The prisoner, Dotson, was “found dead” so who knows how many hours the body was lying there.

That pretty much precludes any use of the heart for transplant.

His relatives said they received the body in a decomposed state, but that could have been poor storage by the coroner before or after the autopsy, or the body might have been well hidden inside the prison so it was a long time before someone found it.

The article isn’t very clear on the condition of the body at each stage of handling.

What’s in the article is probably all the information that the reporter could get out of the prison authority, the state Department of Forensic Sciences, and the University.

I find the boss battles in Pixel Dingeon too difficult when I am forced into them before my character is ready.

Pathos Nethack is a better mobile dungeon crawler with no time pressure for the fixed encounters.

Oh good, then twatter can now become as successful as Truth social…

One of the classics!

The Humpty Dumpty name pre-dates the image of an egg character that was created by Lewis Carroll’s Through The Looking Glass.

A popular theory says the rhyme may have originated by the story of a large cannon used by the Royalists in the English Civil War.

Humpty Dumpty was a term, probably with derogatory inferences, that was applied to large or oversized persons or objects.

The Humpty cannon allegedly fell off the wall that it was stationed upon, thanks to Parliamentary forces undermining it, and was severely damaged.

The falling cannon story became a metaphor for the Royalist leader, King Charles I, who was believed to be large sized himself. He lost the Civil war, and his head, therefore he proverbially “had a great fall”

Joe’s Classic Videogames is great and fun nostalgia about the insides of the classic arcade cabinets and pinball machines of yore.

Lots of insider information on how these things worked and what goes wrong with them, and satisfying play on the machines after they’ve been fixed!

If they haven’t been brushing their teeth and there’s visible calculus on them, you could use a metal pick and scrape it off like a dentist doing teeth cleaning, to show them how thick it is.

Why not both?

That’s a popular misconception about the vaccines.

They’re to keep the infection at a manageable level, i.e. like a regular miserable virus infection, not to stop you from being infected although they do reduce the risk of that too.

Another misconception: “I’m not in the risk demographic”. COVID affected people of all ages, just at different percentages of the population.

Which strip is to the left of Ziggy in the middle of the left bank of screens? Looks like something out of Five Nights At Freddy’s.

Also, Opus thinking “Is that a camera lens?”

There are plenty of crops that have to be tended and harvested by hand: Most green leafy vegetables for example.

This opens those fields to dual use alongside power generation, which might reduce agricultural use of fossil fuels, and provide shade for field workers which is especially dangerous with climate change raising heat levels.

Best answer so far.

I disagree somewhat.

A lot of high tech development comes with a greed motive, e.g. IPO, or getting bought out by a large company seeking to enter the space, e.g. Google buying Android, or Facebook buying Instagram and Oculus.

And conversely, a lot of open source software are copies of commercially successful products, albeit they only become widely adopted after the originals have entered the enshittified phase of their life.

Is there a Lemmy without Reddit? Is there a Mastodon without Twitter? Is there LibreOffice without Microsoft Office and decades of commercial word processors and spreadsheets before that? Or OpenOffice becoming enshittified for that matter? Is there qBittorrent without uTorrent enshittified? Is there postgreSQL without IBM’s DB2?

The exception that I can see is social media and networked services that require active network and server resources, like Facebook YouTube, or even Dropbox and Evernote.

Okay, The WELL is still around and is arguably the granddaddy of all online services, and has avoided enshittification, but it isn’t really open source.

I don’t understand what the crying female figure in the Statue Of Liberty headdress is supposed to represent.

kbin was designed or built with lemmy compatibility early on, and unfortunately not vice versa.

It’s really up to the lemmy devs as to when they’ll ever get around to it.

I’m neutral impoverished.
