Someday, when society goes fully paperless, paper cuts will be a thing of the past
  • Great except for my shampoo irritating the paper cut on my finger 😄

  • Someday, when society goes fully paperless, paper cuts will be a thing of the past
  • This post was inspired by me wondering how I got one. I'm pretty sure it was from opening junk mail, one of the few ways I interact with paper anymore.

    Hot Take: Lemmy communities should function similar to hashtags on Mastodon.
  • This is an interesting idea. A few potential issues come to mind:

    • In this system, each community needs moderators from each instance it is on. A small instance run by one person would face a challenge finding people to moderate potentially hundreds of communities.
    • You mention that a user who doesn't like their instance's moderation can use a different instance, but this isn't easy. There's no account migration at the moment. This is more of an issue with the lack of that functionality, since there are many other reasons people would want to switch instances.
    • If this was implemented, presumably it would require merging all existing communities that share names. There may be some big differences in the culture and content of these instances which could cause problems. You'll find different content in the "memes" communities on lemmy.world, slrpnk.net, and hexbear.net.

    Yelp is making me get their app to confirm my restaurant reservation

    update - after doing some research online, I found I was able to just reply to the text message with "yes" and it confirmed the reservation.

    I just threw away the best Balatro run I was ever gifted

    I got absurdly lucky in the early game and got a negative Ballot and a Triboulet, along with Spare Trousers and some other decent jokers. I worked on getting more kings and queens and building up the trousers. Then I got to The Needle, went through all my discards without getting a pair of kings or queens, and lost. Sad thing is I had Director's Cut, but I'd been beating every blind in one hand so I thought it was a sure thing.

    Just wanted to rant a bit.

    Unfeaturing a post is not federating correctly

    I'm a mod of !communitytv@lemmy.world, although my user is on discuss.tchncs.de. I mainly asked to be made a mod to remove an old sticky post, but I've seen it come back after unfeaturing it a couple of times. Today I tried to unfeature it again, about an hour ago. Currently it does not show up as featured on my instance, but it still does on lemmy.world. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Here is the post in question on each instance:

    TIL Haydn's "Surprise Symphony" was NOT written to wake up sleeping audience members; that was just a myth

    Back in school I heard the story that Haydn wrote the "Surprise Symphony" because he was sick of people sleeping through his music, and wanted to startle them awake. It seems like this was a myth.

    From the Wikipedia article:

    > In Haydn's old age, his biographer Georg August Griesinger asked him whether he wrote this "surprise" to awaken the audience. Haydn replied:

    > No, but I was interested in surprising the public with something new...

    Why do all the cool stories from history end up being made up?

    Just got my first Erratic Deck gold stake win using Obelisk

    I was never able to pull off Obelisk before, but I had the perfect setup this time - the deck was mostly diamonds and clubs, and I got an early flush joker so I was playing nothing but flushes anyway when Obelisk showed up. Got up to 12 flushes before starting to play other hands.
