Lemmy.world announces blocking communities via Discord [update] in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] malcriada_lala@lemmy.world 62 points 1 year ago (10 children)

This makes no sense to me. Did they provide a reason for choosing Discord of all things? What was wrong with making announcements on Lemmy? Why wouldn't they choose to make announcements in another federated format in addition and not instead of lemmy? Like, I'm not super tech savvy but I'm sure they could set up an RSS-like feed to send out alerts? IDK

What is DRM and why is Chrome doing a bad thing here? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I think I understand why this is bad, but I am not confident in my technical understanding of the mechanics here. Will appreciate an explainer :)

looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don't run a complaint browser ( cough...firefox )

here is an article in hacker news since i'm sure they can explain this to you better than i.

and also some github docs

I thought it was owned by loreal, and I thought that wasn't owned by anything else.

I hate that this is true, but if someone has chosen to switch and they can afford to do so, than they should. They just shouldn't think that that's where their power starts and ends. Real change doesn't come from our wallets.

CeraVe carries a moisturizing/hydrating cleanser in liquid and bar form that I think you will like. It feels creamy and doesn't dry out the skin like other cleansers.

I have sensitive inflammation-prone skin and must have a low-level degree on dermatology at this point LOL. I like using CreaVe products since they are a good price and have good simple ingredient lists. My dermatologist approves of these products too, which is nice. If you can spend a little extra, you can also try La Roche Posay's hydrating cleaser too. Very nice quality products.

Why is there so little talk about the teamsters strikes? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] malcriada_lala@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

old leadership of the union had sketchy connections. doesn't have anything to do with the workers today and I'd hope no one is persuaded against supporting the strike due to that stuff. Here's a good article from a trusted source that's been reporting on this consistently. https://therealnews.com/teamsters-union-freight-contract-truckers

Too Late for Okra? (zone 7a) in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Sorry, I thought this was a place to ask all types of questions. Is it not? I'm looking at the other posts here and they are all open ended questions with no particular common subject. I want to understand the purpose of this sub, just let me know. Thanks.

Too Late for Okra? (zone 7a) (lemmy.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/650682

Up until a few weeks ago, our spring had been pretty cool so I put off getting my okra seeds started. Then I forgot about it and now I worry that I am too late to plant some okra! I've never grown it before but I know they are sun and heat lovers. I should have enough of that, but I worry that since it can take 3 months for them to fruit I've missed out on peak growing time.

I'm still going to try, but is there anything I should do to help speed it along? I'm soaking the seeds right now. I've seen that some people scrap the outer shell with sandpaper, anyone have experience doing this? I plan to plant these in deep 5 gal buckets so I can ensure they can always be in the sunniest spot. Any other ideas?!

Whaf do you think of hosting an AMA with John Oliver to make Lemmy/kbin officially a viable Reddit replacement? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I agree, but it doesn't hurt to think this out for when the time comes.
