I am new here and I am confused :)

  • Elon Musk demands firing of ‘disgusting and cruel’ WSJ reporter who uncovered DOGE employee’s racist tweets

    Jump

  • how are some people still hypnotized to believe this man is a genius? GOD i will forever resent the media for glazing this man for 15 yrs and convincing the public that he's anything more than a trust fund baby who could by companies and play pretend.

  • 13 states to sue over DOGE access to government payment systems containing personal data

    Jump

  • that's what I am trying to figure out. They can sue him, they can declare what he is doing is illegal, but then what? Is the secret service or FBI going to get involved? Who is going to enforce this?

  • I don't know if it's just about reddit partnering with Google. It's undeniable that years and years of enthusiasts having niche but public conversations about all manner of things makes it a gold mine for any search engine. People organically were adding "reddit" to their searches for years to find these conversations, way before it was a mechanism of avoiding garbage AI and SEO slop.

    I still use reddit for this very reason. lemmy is great for me to learn about privacy, FOSS, and decentralization, but I have to use reddit to learn about Vermicomposting, which high quality leather boot I should invest in, and for niche subculture snark.

    I've been helping some people bridge their Bluesky to mastodon by telling them that if/when they get pushed out of Bluesky due to enshittification, they will love having a mastodon presence already building. And if people use both, they can at least know there's a back up of all their posts (great if you know any comedians or political advocates who are upset when they lose jokes/posts after being harassed and banned).

  • The Day Will Come When The First Exodus Will Look Like Child's Play

    Jump

  • Yeah. Is that just due to the small size of the user base, or does reddit hide posts you've already seen?

    I would love a way of minimizing comments as you read them like on Reddit. It would make avoiding a long string of comments deviating from the topic much easier

    Jump

  • I'm using the Sync mobile app. I should try another one just to see what's out there. Are you aware of any third party apps that can be used on desktop?

  • The Day Will Come When The First Exodus Will Look Like Child's Play

    Jump

  • Counterpoint: There still is too little activity within communities that aren't tech related for me to say that it's the perfect size. I think we still need a good number of non-tech focused users here. Also, the jokes are stale, but reddit has that issue too.

  • Happy #GlobalSwitchDay

  • I like this. I hope it starts conversations. Does anyone know if there are good alternatives to Discord?

  • Microsoft won’t support Office apps on Windows 10 after October 14th

  • If I am the average computer user with very little literacy when it comes to operating software, how do I go about switching from Windows to Linux? Is there a tutorial anyone recommends?

  • 2023 in social media: the case for the fediverse

    Jump

  • I was excited to see this article written on the verge but then I read it. Seems like they are only interested in what the fediverse can do now that Threads is getting in and sticking their foot in the door. It's likely they needed Meta as a corporation to validate federation as something with real potential. We need to be highly critical about the entities who just see this as another way to make money off our data

  • Persian shield care with wilting leaves

    Jump

  • These are beautiful plants. When you water them, how much water comes out from the bottom and how fast does it happen? Ensuring you have good drainage is key for all plants. This one is probably just in need of brighter light to keep its pretty colors. It may start to look kind of weird until next warm season. I had one and it didn't make it through the winter inside. Maybe a light will help.

  • How to prep for cold in Southern US

    Jump

  • I only have 1 southern facing window and I currently have my bed up against that wall. May try to rearrange that room to out my big elephant ear and alocacia there.

    I keep most of my pants on a multi level shelf by a west facing window with lights. They do ok but would love to find a set up to keep them warmer and better lit.

  • ZZ plant suddenly got zapped?

    Jump

  • no but it is possible that a stray got to it. it is outside.

  • ZZ plant suddenly got zapped?

    Jump

  • The were solid (not mushy), light colored, and didn't have a rot smell at all. Same with the rhizomes. The pot does have drainage, but maybe not enough. I also think the soil may have been a bit compacted and it's possible that water stayed at the surface and never moved downwards

  • Self-Watering Pots - What are they good for?

    Jump

  • ooo, I've never used leca before. Is it hard to keep clean? I have some of my pants in water with pebbles and when I replace the water and clean it out, the smooth surface of the pebbles makes cleaning the gunk pretty easy. The rough surface of leca seems like it would be hard to clean.

  • Meter recommendations - light, moisture, ph, etc

    Jump

  • Many never seem to develop strong and substantial root systems no matter how properly I water them or how much I amend the soil for what they specifically need. I have an alocacia zebrina that has only grown about 5 leaves the whole time I've had it (about a year) and I've read that it's a fast growing plant once it has enough light and soil. I guess I wanna be more confident about whether the light situation I've set up is enough, and I want to feel more confident that my plants are thirsty before I water again. My concern is whether these meters actually work or if they are a gimmick.

  • Meter recommendations - light, moisture, ph, etc

    Jump

  • I have several grow lights, and I think they do a lot of good but I think some of my plants are still not thriving. Many never seem to develop strong and substantial root systems no matter how properly I water them or how much I amend the soil for what they specifically need. I am just starting to fertilize my plants regularly and I feel like getting some of these meters is another way to level-up as a plant parent.

    I do bring out many of my plants to live outside in the warm months, but for the more delicate ones I simply leave them by my sunny window + plant light area
