Username (top right corner), settings, scroll down… Keep on going… There! Sort type: top hour.

If you’re using a mobile client, it’s also somewhere in the settings. Probably buried deep.

Using a blacklist approach seems to be very popular, but here’s an alternative for those who want to try something different.

Subscribe to all the communities you consider worth your time. Change the setting of your default feed so that home=subscribed. When you’re just casually browsing, you’ll see posts from the communities you’ve explicitly approved, so you can be pretty sure that you won’t be seeing stuff you don’t want to be exposed to.

If you want to discover new and interesting places, there are actually a few communities specifically for that purpose. (!newcommunities@lemmy.world and !communitypromo@lemmy.ca) Just subscribe to those, and your home feed will introduce you to new things from time to time. If you want to see shitposts, politics, memes or a combination of all three, you can always visit the “all” feed.

Monitors and TVs always have the catchiest names. Those marketing people are just geniuses.

If we know that the world is coming to turn to ash within a month, year or so, it’s going to be pure chaos all the way till the very end. Hopefully we can push those asteroids away long before they even come close.

Regardless of the size, I’m willing to let the moon take one for the team. If the asteroid is huge, there’s going to be lots of ejecta, some of which will hit earth. Still better than getting smacked in the face with a huge rock.

I asked GPT and Copilot some pride related questions, and they were both pretty supportive. GPT went into more detail, while Copilot used more rainbow emojis. Either way, I didn’t see any right-wing rhetoric.

I read that with “sports” as a verb. Took me a while to realize that “Apple Sports” is the name of the app.

Oh yeah. It takes courage to be the last company to implement something. Like, always-on display, widgets, app library etc. Still waiting for that under-display fingerprint sensor. It seems like Apple prefers to wait 2-5 years before adding an industry standard feature.

Dragging it out is a reoccurring theme here.

Before clicking, I already knew it was standupmaths. Seems like there are lots of like-minded people here.

Sounds more like non-binary to me.

You’re welcome.

I drew it using gimp, skipped a some details, and didn’t really focus on getting things right. Also, instead of saving it in a proper format, I just took a messy low-res screenshot.

That means your CPU should be just fine, though single thread performance could still be an issue.

If the overlay can’t show you all the cores separately, you would need to alt+tab to check the proper CPU graph from time to time. If single thread performance is a bottle neck, you should see a single core staying at 100% for a long period of time or multiple cores taking turns to briefly visit 100% load.

Check how much CPU is being used during normal activities (task manager, process explorer whatever). If individual cores visit 100% usage briefly, that’s perfectly fine. If all cores go 100% for a while, that’s probably fine as well. If you see that the entire CPU maxes out for long periods of time, that could be a bottle neck. If you see that sort of thing happening when doing something exotic, that’s perfectly fine. You don’t need to upgrade your CPU just so that some once-a-year thing runs better. If you see that every day, you might want to consider upgrading.

BTW you can also use the same method to figure out if your GPU, RAM or disk is a bottleneck.

Oh, I’ve read lots of those comments. Truly fascinating stuff, and I think there is a reason. Here are some guesses.

1. That user is suffering from some sort of mental issues. This seems like the obvious option, but I don’t think it’s the most likely one.
2. It’s a social experiment. Someone is using it to gather information on how people respond to hostility online. I would love to carry out an experiment like that, but can’t justify the negativity that would be inherently involved in it. I’m really curious to find out how different instances, communities or even other social medias respond. Are some places more hostile or mature than others? What does it take to get your messages deleted or account banned? Who knows.
3. It’s a piece of online art. That account is used for making a statement about online debates, hostility and the ways people react.
4. It’s a personal goal. Who has the most downvoted account on Lemmy? That’s an achievement of sorts, I guess. This is the kind of stuff people do when they’ve already completed the main quest and most of the side quests.
5. Plain old trolling. Sort of like point 4, but for entertainment purposes instead of questionable bragging rights.

This level of toxicity is really impressive. Can I get sone sarin sauce on that plutonium burger, please?

You are appreciated the way you are. Here, have some flowers to cheer you up 💐🌸🌻

Yeah, that’s an entirely valid option. However, 15 €/month is a bit difficult to justify, given the quality I would get in return. The family plan might make more sense though.

Oooh, free insults. Yes please.

Are you able to block YT ads on Safari + AdGuard? That’s the combo I have, and it did work for a while, but nowadays, all YT videos stop at the 1 min mark. Seems like YT is beginning to block people who use ad blockers.
