Sending hugs my friend. Chronic Pain is absolutely awful and the societal/medical indifference and gaslighting compound already enormous suffering.

I hear you. It sucks. 🫂

When I was poor and homeless. I still had a phone with contacts. Just no phone subscription.

There’s nothing that helped me that didnt make it worse in the long run. best thing was to rest and pace and accept my current limitations and disability

ed?

That’s the kind of gardens we need more of to save the pollinators

Nah, 13th century was too decentralised. It’s before the development of absolutism, nationionalism, and then totalitariansm. They are more going for late 1930s Italy/Germany style.

This ain’t boring. It’s terrifying.

Just FYI Canadians, don’t get fooled when people say California is “leftist”. Check out recent referendum results, they voted against abolishing slavery (for prisoners) and in favour of the death penalty for example. They are only “leftist” in relation to the neofacist US’s overton window.

I’m still on my 2016 iPhone SE. It’s slow and buggy but for my purposes it’s great and the screen is only 10cm (4in).

It depends. I don’t feel forced to go on there because it has none of my friends. Obviously I’ll go once every few weeks to check out cool photography but I’m really not an active user there.

Bluescreen is a Bluesky client with one singular purpose: It identifies the videos from your Bluesky feed and delivers them to you in a TikTok-style endless scrolling interface. You don’t interact with text-based posts, nor do you see still images. It’s as if Bluesky offered a “video only” feed. But, since they don’t, Bluescreen exists.

It’s a cool idea, and it’s also the idea behind Flashes. Instead of isolating the videos in your Bluesky feed, Flashes isolates the images, which lets you turn Bluesky into an Instagram alternative. If you’re surprised to hear two different Bluesky clients using the same strategy to achieve two similar outcomes, that’s because they’re both developed by the same person: Sebastian Vogelsang.

Vogelsan announced Flashes before Bluescreen, but released the video app ahead of the photo app. While we wait for the Instagram of Bluesky to get here, we can try out the TikTok of Bluesky instead.

Women can rape women — although masculine rape culture is definetly the biggest culprit behind rapes.

Version edited to mention lemmy also doesn’t have adds. (NOT MADE BY ME)

I hate giving these people the satisfaction of the “socialist” or “communist” label.

Access Mistral and many others model anonymously with https://duck.ai/

I stopped using it in favour of just sorting by “following”.

Honestly the algorithm felt badly made. But this was like 5 months ago so they may have made it better by now!

Is there literally anything only men like?

There are male biased things, ie. gaming, woodworking, wingsuiting, cimbing etc.

but are there any things literally only males like?

mildly infuriating, it’s at 197 upvotes and my instance has downvotes disabled

Think of those of us who can’t get vaccines due to being immunocompromised, before you say “it’s just a flu” and spread it by not wearing a mask.
