Dozens of countries scramble to cope with latest wave of Trump trade tariffs

  • Well I am shocked, SHOCKED I say! Well, not that shocked.

  • I had wanted to start a Star Trek instance because I have a domain with LCARS in it that would be fitting, but I never got around to it because startrek.website existed

    I think Star Trek fandom is big enough for a focused instance, just not 2 of em lmao

  • Oop forgot the tag, fixed

  • Yea, that bit was kinda weird, I also got caught off guard by Peggy making that "Kill myself" joke...seemed out of character to me

  • Kinda, Infowars/Alex Jones was in court and being ordered to sell off their assets to pay the Sandy Hook lawsuit. The Onion put in a bid along with another company that "Totally has no association with Alex Jones", The Onion's bid was higher than this other company, but the judge basically said "Um actually, no you can't have it" and froze their bid on a technicality

  • Florida manBird

  • You can export/import subscriptions, block lists, user tags and something else I'm feel like I'm forgetting

    To export go-to lemm.ee/settings and scroll to bottom to "Export", import is the same way on your selected new instance.

    You can't export/import posts, comments or votes on Lemmy unfortunately, however, they will live on on the Lemmy-verse network. .ee comms and their content will be cached by all the other active instances and .ee user contributions to remote comms (relative to them/you) will remain

  • Lol, it's an article, the whole point is to summarize "something else", they even have a few paragraphs on the highlights and then links the patch notes themselves at the end.

  • Silencers aren't actually silent, they're still quite loud, it's nothing like in shows and movies

    In real world usage, they're really only useful for reducing the decibels a bit for hearing protection reasons

    Suppressor is a more apt term for them

  • Some highlights from the link:

    "Don't worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167

    Just "kids" though "boys will be boys" ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯😂

  • Wait, that's for actual good news‽

    LMAO someone should let them know that when Farnsworth says "Good news everyone" it's actually bad news (occasionally) dressed up to sound like good news 😂

  • That's not really an excuse to half ass it, there's lots of things a rouge instance could do and that's one of many reasons defederation is a thing

  • Even on an individual level, like what is the point of blocking someone if they can still fully interact with your posts and comments, just you can't see it.

    That's a mute, when Xitter tried (or did? Idr) to downgrade their actual block to essentially the same thing that Lemmy has now it was met with outrage.

    Proper blocking should be a core feature of any social media, it's not a 'nice to have' feature that can be developed when there's time for it

  • Haha good one!

    Rushes to hide my 600+ open tabs

  • Don't give them any ideas sad lol

  • They said evacuate out of Israel, but didn't mention where to lol
