If the others suggested aren’t quite right for you, you might try looking for an interval timer app. These are generally used for fitness, but it seems to me that type of setup might do exactly what you want if you just set up a “workout” that has a single 30 min interval and repeats.
Yes. But i was trying to make my change small… which is, of course, subjective. For me setting an empathy baseline feels like more than a small change.
Agreed, but looking in the bright side: it would kill the diamond industry, which is a fucking awful blight on the world :)
I’m trying to focus this answer on something that seems like a really small change:
I wish everyone is slightly more empathetic.
I feel like this could give us a lot of small nudges toward being better people and a better society. I wonder if a small nudge could end up having a profound effect.
My next step (before driver stuff) would be to figure out where in the chain you are having issues.
(1) check if the camera is working on its own (assuming it can record to internal memory or something). No? Time to troubleshoot the camera.
(2) connect from the camera’s mini hdmi to a tv/monitor and see if you’re getting a picture. No? Time to troubleshoot the hdmi out or hdmi cable.
I recommend starting with season 4. Then if you end up liking it, loop back to seasons 1-3. This is old TV where each episode is made to stand on its own.
Alarmed (iOS only, unfortunately). It allows you to set nagging reminders with notifications and has great features for snoozing a reminder or setting up routine reminders.
It’s great for ADHD. I basically use it for my schedule I’ll have it remind me the morning of something (or the day before depending on the event), when the reminder comes up, I’ll snooze it to to just before I have to leave.
I had been using apples “reminders”, which just seem to disappear into the ether if you happen to miss the notification.
Lol. One recommendation: when arguing about copyright, don’t substitute physical goods for material that can be easily duplicated when making an argument. Substitute a patent? Sure. Substitute a different type of copyrighted (or copyright adjacent) material? Sure. But it’s really hard to get past the fundamental difference between stealing a physical good — in which the person you’re stealing from no longer has the item — and copying a good, in which now both people have the item.
To compare stealing a car with stealing digital goods, it would go more like: how would you feel if someone snuck over and built an exact duplicate of your car and drove it away?
Dunno. My account isn’t on either instance. If beehaw is federated with your instance, you would be able to post.
It looks like foss@beehaw.org is the biggest. Search communities for “foss”
I just searched Amazon for “wire shelf connectors” and got lots of results. I’d check measurements, but here is one result that might work:

Lol. Yeah, I get it. Plus, on other social media where liking your own stuff isn’t the default,liking your own content feels dirty. So if that’s what your used to, I can see the negative reaction. Especially if you thought it was an app-specific feature and not the global default.
If you’re worried because you feel like the app is trying to promote your post/comment by upvoting it, then don’t worry. This is the default action on lemmy (and Reddit). Essentially every post and comment starts with a score of 1, so that is what people expect.
If you were to find a way to disable this for yourself (or manually remove the vote), I think that your post will get buried because the algorithm “expects” a score of 1 and your post would basically look like it was instantly disliked, receiving worse ranking for anyone browsing by anything but New. Note, I don’t know exactly how the algorithms work, so it’s possible that I am incorrect here. I could also see the algorithm ignoring the OP’s vote and your post ending up in the same position.
Additionally, with a score of 0, people are more likely to skip over it, thinking it’s bad content. Or, even worse, hive-mind downvote it.
No need to be hostile, nor put words in my mouth. I gave my view and reasoning without doing so. You should try to do the same. This isn’t Reddit, and I would prefer it to stay that way.
It’s one thing for you to find content that you think is worth posting on lemmy and then duplicating the post here - even using a bot. This requires you to self evaluate whether the content is worthwhile before posting it. It’s another to simply repost all content from a sub without any human evaluation.
The biggest issue I see with bot posts is that they tend to spam the heck out of lemmy. At first I tried blocking bots that I found spammy, but ultimately I disabled seeing bot accounts because I got tired of constantly blocking them individually.
Keep in mind that yes, there is less content here, but that also means that if you make a bot that reposts all (or a lot) of content from active Reddit subs, you are going to inundate peoples feeds. It won’t be a problem for me, because I’ll never see it. But new and less tech savvy users might be annoyed/frustrated by the situation.
when I was seeing bot posts, it didn’t seem like they got any activity. It was a bunch of posts filling up my feed with no comments or activity — Just a bot shouting into the void.
The bot they are talking about isn’t trying to hide that it is a Reddit reposting bot. The posts from that bot start with some boilerplate like “this content is copied from /r/blah”.
So if you aren’t seeing this content, there is nothing you need to do. If you do see this content, block the user that posted it.
Edit: the Reddit bot that I blocked is bot@lemmit.online
I found some simple traps which look promising to me here:
https://www.bobvila.com/articles/diy-mosquito-trap/
The first one is co2 based, using yeast.
I kinda like the idea of the last one, especially for indoors in the summer. It seems very simple and makes a lot of sense to me: secure some window screen mesh to the output side of a box fan. Let the fan run. The mosquitos get sucked in and trapped against the mesh until they dry out and die. Spray them with a mixture of rubbing alcohol and water if you want to speed up their demise.
I don’t tend to use #1 as I suspect that heuristic isn’t (usually) true, although it depends on the test writer. A multiple choice test with 4 answers for each question and randomly distributed answers only has a 25% chance of the same answer twice in a row and a 6.25% chance of three in a row. This can lead you to see a pattern that isn’t there. Granted, if you have no idea what the answer is, it’s reasonable to fall back on #1 and not pick the same answer as the previous. But if you have any inkinling that an answer is more likely to be correct, I’d pick that one regardless of whether the prior or next answer was in the same position.
My general process is elimination. Look at the answers and eliminate the ones you know are not correct. Then tentatively eliminate the ones you suspect are wrong. Now you have a remaining set of possible answers. Of course, if there is only one, pick that. if the remaining answers seem they could be true, pick all of the above or “X and Y” as appropriate unless the answers are contradictory. If there is contradiction, use your best guess to pick a non-contradictory answer.
That’s about it for my process.
I typed in the url and… yeah, that was A LOT of boobs and butts.
Came back here to see that I mistyped the url. Doubling the “O” results in many boobs and butts.
