What's your take on genetic engineering?
  • Like many things, it could be incredible but in our modern society I fear it would be abused and misused due to greed and poor regulation

  • hpttsw eaii
  • I think it's a hepatitis pamphlet

  • Locked Removed
    Hezbollah pays village residents rent to store rockets in their homes
  • At least they paid them rather than wiping the residents of the face of the map like Israel

  • Homeland Security Admits It Tried to Manufacture Fake Terrorists for Trump
  • Homeland security was created after 9/11 by Bush, so that tracks.

  • United inks deal with Elon Musk's SpaceX to offer free WiFi on flights
  • How about we don't give the creepy billionaire more of our data for free

  • Traffic to be banned from London’s Oxford Street under Sadiq Khan plan
  • This. Roads used to be for people not cars

  • Anon goes to school with a menace
  • Nah I think the OP was pretty clear there was only jorkin and no fuckin /s

  • The Tippy Type makes typing with long nails less tedious
  • Jesus these comments scream basement dweller. You don't have to like what someone does with their own body to accept it. It doesn't hurt you so don't worry about it. God forbid people have some self expression

  • Geothermal energy could outperform nuclear power
  • Not a big fan of fracking of any kind. It causes sinkholes and other issues.

  • Some basic info about USB
  • Things are muddied a bit though because USB 4 has built in support for thunderbolt

  • Some basic info about USB
  • Brother, now that thunderbolt 4 has been introduced it's even more confusing. Some of these labels are already out of date

  • Earbuds
  • Apple Earpods are very high quality actually, and are praised as a good cheap option by audiophiles

  • It just seems like cables bother you more than me. But I also don't live in a city with a lot of walkability or good public transit. I would use wired headphones on my college campus, when I was done with them, I'd wrap them around my phone, unplug them and then slide the coiled wire loop off my phone and put them in my pocket. I also don't care if the wires are out while my phone is in my pocket and my headphones are in. I've never run the wires through my shirt.

    I used to run in highschool, and I just got used to holding my phone while I ran with headphones in. Idk man, maybe I'm just old lol.

  • Bread
  • Yes

  • Earbuds
  • Cabled headphones have gotten a lot better and cheaper, and no it's a compression thing, here's an article about it

  • Earbuds
  • Right but you could better quality and the same quality of speakers for literally less than half the price, and they'll be more repairable because all you need to do to fix them is solder some wire. I also disagree that they do everything better but that's really subjective. I can see using wireless headphones at the gym and things, but wired headphones still very much have a place imo.

  • [Bug]Sidebar still very very laggy, basically unusable

    Since the much earlier version of this app, the sidebar has been basically unusable, it almost completely freezes up anytime I do anything on it. Is there any fix for this? Is this a know issue? What's going on?

    I'm pretty sure it has something to do with how the sidebar renders my subscriptions. As soon as they load everything in the sidebar takes forever.

    This is the thing that has kept me from using this app despite basically being theost feature rich lemmy app.

    Looking for: Photo Viewer app for local and NAS files

    I'm looking for a photo viewer thay allows you to view local storage and connect network storage

    But I also want to be able to move and copy to and from network storage and local storage

    And modify (ie delete, move files, etc) the files in network storage

    I have fstop currently, but thay allows only read only access to network storage

    Anyone have any recs?

    I can set up most network file sharing standards so that's not really a limiting factor

    if comments are broken on an instance (like they are lemmy.world right now) the app will crash if you edit certain settings.

    Just about anything to do with comments that tries to fetch dara from the server will crash the app if comments aren't working

    Is it time for lemmy.world to work with other hosters to have "sister" instances?

    Lemmy.World is rapidly growing, maybe it’s time for some holsters to group together and distribute Thay load to other instances.

    Maybe custom ui logic could be made for the sign up page that auto signs you up for an instance that is an official sister instance to the main lemmy.world. it could tell the user why ( to reduce load on a single server) and have a choice for the user to opt out.

    Just a thought. I mean I made a new account because I was having trouble posting on my .world account, and I can't even login to jerboa still.

    IMO I think in order to fully utilize part what makes the fediverse great, this should be supported natively. Thoughts? I’d love to hear from the admins and community mods.
