The Great App Genocide of 2023.

Fuck no. I handled it like a man and trial and errored it for weeks. I am ashamed to say that I had to ask the dealer for assistance to drive it off the lot because I was blocking people and they were getting pissed.

I’ve got a 2018 mini cooper SE hybrid. It has a little switch to turn on. The switch has its light on when the car is turned off and it’s light off when the car is turned on. It also has a third state after you get out of the car where it’s not really on or off but you can’t charge it or drive it until you turn it completely on or off. And you can’t turn it on if you don’t have it in neutral. And it doesn’t really tell you if the parking break is on except a little light on the center console which you never see, so the car may be on but you won’t be able to drive it because the parking brake is on. Sometimes it wont let you unplug it until you lock it and unlock it again for some reason.

And don’t even get me started on the CarPlay or the driver profiles or the park assist menu that overstays its welcome by about 3 minutes.

Fellow Mini owner. This is only one of the many questionable UI decisions made in my car. I literally had to get help to get it started the first time.

Yeah I feel like if you get it into the corral, I’ll give you a pass, even though why not just finish the job at that point.

They set out to make the truck version of the Delorean and succeeded.

Make your own. Only takes a minute and once you find the right formula, will taste much better than this garbage.

That toaster gives me the vibes of my '80s Apple //c

We all have one. I’m also not a professional programmer but I have stuff like this for my home automation that I know I should really clean up but it works so I don’t want to mess around and break it.

Mildly hilarious more than mildly infuriating.

You always have the option of a VPN. That and private mode is probably a good best practice for a site like this anyway.

I think there is a script out there that replaces all your comments with random gibberish sentences. Just cron it to run every week until all the rollbacks are gone.

Yeah we need something like multireddits which have collections of communities across instances that can be subscribed to instead of the individual communities themselves. So your worldnews could be a single subscription of all the worldnews communities across lemmy.world, beehaw, etc. De-duping for extra credit!

Better yet, it should semi-force you to post as a crosspost which would remove the duplicate from end user feeds. Especially if there’s already a post on another community with a matching content link.

Make sure and get the always nitter plugin so you never have to see elon’s abomination again.

Don’t look at Reddit traffic. Look at the 600% increase in Lemmy traffic which isn’t slowing down even a little. Lemmy is quickly building up enough steam to replace Reddit, and then it’s simply a matter of time. Lemmy will keep getting better and Reddit will keep getting worse. People will figure it out. As someone who watched the fall of Digg firsthand and in real-time, I can assure you, these things can very much surprise you. They haven’t even closed down third party apps yet.

I closed down my subs and moved here and started new ones. I’m not looking back. My subs were only moderated by me, so they can hire someone if they want to open them up again.

Yes. 16 year Reddit user here. The last pieces of the puzzle with themes and moving to lemm.ee are falling into place for me. Lemmy’s front page is now more interesting than Reddit. Very much reminds me of the Reddit I joined. Way more intelligent and topical.

Only way I’ve found is to go into settings and turn off “show read posts”.

This happened to my 1965 ford thunderbird. A giant dent over the whole body panel. Previously pristine original panel. No note or anything. People are horrible.
