Hell yes they need to lie! They probably say they voted for who ever the loudest person in the group did so they don’t get threatened. Us older generations shouldn’t be bullying the younger ones, we had our chance and here we are.
Thank you all for the discussion! I have read all the comments and enjoyed each response and will continue to do so. I came out with pretty much the same feelings as the rest of you…. In an ideal world…
Once again, thank you and good luck to everyone out there…we got this!
Just chilling and sharing a stream of thought..
So how would a credibility system work and be implemented. What I envision is something similar to the up votes..
You have a credibility score, it starts a 0 neutral. You post something People don’t vote on if they like, the votes are for “good faith”
Good faith is You posted according to rules and started a discussion You argued in good faith and can separate with opposing opinions You clarified a topic for someone If someone has a polar opinion to yours and is being down voted because people don’t understand the system Etc.
It is tied to the user not the post
Good, bad, indifferent…?
Perfect the system
I remember the days of reading through those catalogs with anticipation and hope. Personally I think back fondly on the ultimate catalog, consumers distributing. Fill out the catalog card after weeks of pouring over toys and give it to the parents, instant Christmas list
I have been told by a smaller resident in my abode, that it is a very good game. Sorry no specific or first hand, but it’s being steadily played.
With streaming the way it is, I would stop the chopping up of stories and start telling them in a new way. Shows are longer now and the quality difference is minimal, so just film and tell the story. Sitcoms and the like I get doing episodes but I think it’s time to review how stories are dispensed visually
What about the folks that like playing multiplayer games solo? I enjoy the busyness/fullness of people running around the world and having small interactions, while getting into groups only when really necessary for content or items.
Greetings, I am looking for a epub/pdf reader similar to Marvin 3, that I can connect to my calibre server. It appears my Marvin was offloaded and it is no longer available. Would prefer free of course but don’t mind paying for a good app…no subscription. Foss would be great. Any other suggestions are welcome.
How about, instead of calling people bootlicker, we suggest the person reevaluate their position and give them a chance to adjust their perspective. People tend to entrench themselves in their opinion when attacked. There isn’t any excuse for a person to lose their freedom because another wants to “make a point”. Sorry not poking anyone deliberately, just the dozenth or so post I’ve read that has been aggressive rather than educational. Lemmy is supposed to be better, we can keep it better together. Have a good day
so title, as in if you had 50 acres and planted trees, fixed ponds and water ways, etc. would this allow more humidity, promote snow...? like a micro climate?
Try to remember, words are just that, words. Intent is what makes them good or bad.
Looking for an app/extension/website that can take all my YouTube subscriptions and play them oldest to newest, not by channel but in entirety. Appreciate any assistance/suggestions
It’s called mix now
Every few years or so I run into something that triggers nostalgia with MUDs, I used to play Achaea, and Dark and Shattered Lands using Zmud client. It was fun, but re-entry is a lot of work with scripts and maps. Any that are still active (without being fully scripted)?
here's a quick top list if anyone is curious

Just stop by and say hi? I think we are all here for our fond memories of forums, BBSes and other small communities. And I have been seeing a lot of movement on the all feeds about “the site that shall not be named” (that is so much harder to type then Reddit), or how less or more toxic lemmy is (done this myself), even a thread on how older lemmy adopters are annoyed with how redditors are “changing” lemmy. A solid point was made that, if we like slower content or a less toxic environment, then these federated services are made to help you do that. So in that light I have been taking steps to help lemmy be more of what I envision it to be. A place with oodles of information and some small places with friendly avatars…yes I said oodles. Once again I welcome you, and offer this community as “our space”.
Soooo…
I had an ok day, did the work things, and made it home to the family. However, my wife’s car AC decided it had worked long enough and retired. It is very hot here right now. So being the husband I am (masochistic but suffer very LOUDLY) I swapped vehicles with her. It was a small thing and my drive is shorter. But for the love of whatever you hold dear, THE STATE. garbage in passenger floor, check. Unidentifiable sludge on carpets, seats, cup holders, and handles, check. I had to take a lunch break and get cleaners for my sanity. Don’t get me wrong, I throw things on the floor and spill stuff…but I clean it up…moderation in everything. So I get home and say hi, then with an air of superiority I showed her what I had done (all proud and chest puffed out) by saying go sit in your car. She of course said “No, it’s hot in there”. We proceeded to argue for 2 minutes (the nice kind. come on…why…cause I want to show you something….sigh…fine). She gets in the car and looks, for not a long time but long enough where in your head your like…OMG, and realizes I cleaned it. She smiled and got out, gave me a kiss and took my youngest to their back to back activities while I sit on my couch typing this comfortably to strangers. I love my wife, she is a better person then me…sometimes ;)
Tl;dr Say hi and read a blurb where I acted smug while my wife did the actually hard work. I love my wife.

Saw a post that mentioned Netscape Navigator , blast from the past. I remember it being so cool.
Edit-autocorrect
!Flow
I'd like to make this flow a public document, as a visual aid to crowdsource putting pieces together for a community server.
the big pictures is a few projects, public and private and will hopefully allow others to follow and create their own as we go. I'd like to collaborate on what would be a solid system that a single or small group could put together and duplicate. Every aspect should be discussed, debated, and voted on. Best practices adapted and short comings pointed out. I'd like it to be open source and integrate together in some fashion. We can break into fine details over time. This is a long term hobby project, not an all in one weekend project.
I think the first items to discuss are
- Any Interest?
- How to host this Flow - currently on Github
- How to post the progress in segments so not a mega thread
- Which flow software would work the best and give all people on all devices the ability to view/edit - currently on diagrams.net
Items down the road
- other Fediverse items to incorporate
- Hardware to run it all
- How to manage access so the community can all participate
Posting a link to this in https://lemmy.world/c/selfhosted as its probably in their wheel house as well

Adding content without permission seems the right thing to do here.
Looking for any input on title formatting for posting a FAQ and other ways to fill out the repository. Should we only have the mods of the communities able to poste their own FAQs or should we be able to post them ourselves. How do we stop duplicates etc. Brainstorm away, there are no stupid questions/ideas
Put your community link below. Anything that is a group of people sharing information
Any tips or advice on a guide that walks new people through retro communities? Something along the lines of, what older systems are still in use, which are seeing a resurgence, or have been adapted to modern needs. I’d like to brainstorm a way to help people connect and create the feel of the older systems with the options available from the fediverse.
Where would you like us to go? This is a new community on a relatively new medium and your input/questions are appreciated.
Did you, run a BBS? Were you part of a close nit community? Remember the days of Phrack magazine, war-dialing and blue boxes? What about those awesome ansi art pictures? Tell us all about it! Share your stories and life lessons. This isn’t twitter so write a text wall if you want. But remember you are welcome here!
Read through the material supplied here for bite-sized information that is easy to absorb. 📑 ➜ General Questions ❔ How did digital piracy actually begin? As soon as the technology Cut, copy, and paste was introduced. This made it possible to easily transmit or copy digital data. Copyr...
If I'm going to post a FAQ I have no ownership on I might as well post this one
In the spirit of older small community sharing. If you’re uncertain, nervous, or curious about posting, just drop a reply in here. Doesn’t matter if it’s a hello world, test or an attempt to see formatting of text (maybe even ansi art). Just pop in and try it or leave your mark and go back to lurking. It’s all good stuff!
New to Lemmy, so i thought I'd jump all the way in. Been playing with some "old" BBSes and door games like tradewars to get some of that nostalgia feeling and wanted to share. If you were/are a sysop post it here so others can visit or ask questions like I will be to start the journey of reliving the early days of warez and digital communities.
