Really geography has a big influence, it's all about cost of a cable vs. possible rate of return from subscribers.
Oh yeah totally. I live in a country with lots of island and it's a logistical nightmare. As a result, the eastern most part of my country still doesn't have internet. It's not even because the government is incompetent, it's because it's hard. AFAIK at least
Ah, fellow Southeast Asian I see
What?
How is the availability of high-quality internet a first world problem? I live in a developing country and it's way better than this LoL
WOW. This is such a nice job!. I really like the combination of blue and wooden brown. And the plants too. It feels like a high-fantasy book!
I'm not sure if I agree on the microtransaction part, but I do agree when you say that internet gaming community have too much outrage now... Can't people enjoy anything nowdays?
I know we (including me) hate that guy so much, but if you just straight up make up stuff now you're not much different.
Thank you, sorry for being negative.
Happy Ramadhan for those who celebrate it!!
Can I be honest? Religion. Anything related to it, somehow will get someone downvote me. Even if I just mention "God" or something. I get that I should "separate the church from the state" or I should be secular here or whatevs, and I respect that. It's not like every time I mention I force it down to everyone's throat!
Tbh I wanted to make a post that greet everyone on Lemmy that are doing Ramadhan fasting at first, but now I don't even feel like doing that. There's no point of posting it, I guess, if it got downvoted and no one wants to see it.
I guess this means that Lemmy isn't much different from Reddit...
Identifying mushroom has always been mysterious to me--how did they differentiate many of the mushroom? Especially I heard that there are so many different mushroom that looks identical
Surprisingly, it works. There are some minor errors, like the app not being able to open the new format of reddit post links, error 404 on profile page, many more
Syncing probably, but even that can be solved by another excellent software called Syncthing... Or just spend money to subscribe to their sync service, if you have it :)
The start up time seems to be pretty slow to me, barely a problem in desktop, but on mobile it genuinely bothers me
High-density housing
Is it just me or:
- it looks empty
- it also somehow looks like an electrical fuse
IKR, I'm starting to see more and more of this kind of questions here. I wish mods do something about it
Time to ask rainbolt where this is!
Ever read a book, watched a movie, or played a video game that you love the universe/world so much that you want to move there and live there forever?
I'm assuming that most of you are from the US so probably using cars, but lemme know if you use trains, subways, buses, etc.
Me? Back when I was doing an internship I walked to a nearby station for 10 minutes then transited to another train line, which could be an instant or 20 minutes wait. After that I walked for 10 minutes to my work place. So it was probably about 40 minutes of commute. Of course, I live in tropical country so I'm drenched in sweat as I arrive in the office.
Fortunately every year my city's public transportation seems to get better and as a result I barely needed to use cars.
Perhaps failure in college, class, career, or other things.

Recently, I started looking into electronic music stuff, and remembered that I used to listen to this mixtape back in 2019, and thought, wow this is really good! I think the quality is still holds up to this day. Instant classic, really.
Highlights:
- stunning artwork around the mixtape--from the visualizer to the album art
- slowthai feature on the track High Beams
- the one and only JPEGMAFIA on the track How To Build A Relationship
- SOPHIE (RIP)

I was actually quite surprised at how good this album was--even way back before I was into Radiohead at all.
Personally my favorite songs here are The Eraser, Black Swan, and And it Rained All Night.
Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?
