This is not a great article. So many words with so little information. In other articles I found it sounds like Chrome is finally getting third party cookie blocking. Other browsers have had thir for years. Its nothing new.

Instead of scanning with your eyes you need to turn your head with the extra weight of VR on.

I wonder what changed. The login bug has been gone for me for a while now.

Yes it is. Look at the eyes on the ducks. Also the guy’s hands and nose. Dead giveaways.

When I saw “otter attack” the first thing that came to mind is they must have been harrasing them or too close to babies. Something stupid, whatever it was.

I came here to say something similar: get a little off the beaten path to find out what its really like in the area. The more foreign the area is to you, the more interesting it will be. Obviously, feel out the area or find out from a local to be sure you’re safe to venture off.

I tried Mastodon in the early days but did not enjoy it for the same reason I did not enjoy Twitter. It is ok as a news feed but not so much as a “forum”.

That is long, lets acronymize it: TWFKAT, pronounced twif-cat.

Gitchi miigwech sa! Nizhigajibii’.

But on kbin you should be able to follow their accounts from mastodon, I believe.

Yes, kbin can interact with microblogs (not just Martodon) on the fediverse.

2FA. It says it is a feature on the kbin site but I have not found it.

Right click on the thing you want to change and choose Inspect. That will show you the current class/id to key in on. I haven’t seen docs on that. it could also be a moving target since kbin is still pretty new and under very active development.

@Sam_uk, nice! Thanks. I was on an IP somewhere in the US (VPN). So maybe I got a different result today being on a different IP. At least I know what is going on at kbin.world now. It all makes sense :-)

@Sam_uk Thanks for making me take another look. When I go to https://kbin.world/ it forwards me to https://kbin.social/m/usnews@lemmy.world

So I guess it wasn’t bringing me to the lemmy domain, just to view the lemmy community through kbin.

What this guy said. All the JPGs started as a proof of concept/example. That wasn’t the end goal!

Wow, whoever owns kbin.world forwarded it to lemmy.world. 😐

Jar Jar Binks was not a bad “person” in Star Wars but was a hated character. He was one of the nicest good guys.

The actor who played Jar Jar Binks, Ahmed Best, said that the widespread criticism of his character had led to him considering suicide.

This is not new or specific to online retailers. I worked in retail for almost a decade before gettinng out.

On most products that don’t have strict pricing guidelines from the manufacturer, prices can very wildly. Normal pricing would be a marked down price. When big sale would come, the tag price would go from the Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) up to Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Those prices are set by the manufacturer. The price printed on tags is MSRP. It is full price and is usually marked up quite a lot. With high end brands, MSRP is usually a lot higher than what MAP is. With brands like The Northface it can be $100 or more.

When a retailer runs a “big sale” they often put everything back up to full MSRP then mark it back down whatever percentage off they are offering.

Sometimes I would wait for a product to go on sale so I could get my employee discount plus sale price. There were many times when a huge sale plus my discount ended up being the same price or more than what the every day price was.

Kbin alone probably won’t take over Reddit but the fediverse could. Reddit will stick around, just like Facebook and MySpace are still out there.

My first smartphone was an iPhone. Most things were counter intuative. I also had to jailbreak it to do the things I wanted. A lot of it was basic stuff. The one I remember was that I wanted to use certain Bluetooth devices that would only work when jailbroken.

Once I tried Android there was no turning back. I’ve used Apple devices for work and it is still counter intuative but things like Bluetooth are less restrictive at least. Still you shouldn’t have to try to break or hack the system you’re on to get basic settings that aren’t available by default.
