For me, it’s fun being able to identify things correctly. I was playing that color HEX code guessing game for a bit on !dailygames@lemmy.zip, and it’s the same feeling.

I think it would be helpful if people (who are knowledgeable about the topic) can link to sources about why a post is wrong/misinformation. The mod is more likely to act on the report if they can quickly verify the content.
I say this as an admin that can see the reports go by, but it often isn’t my place to take action since the report is about something that the community moderators would need to decide on.
I found this post because someone reported it as “lies”. If I was a mod in this community, I would need to hunt through the comment chains to figure out what the problem is, and right now there is only one or two comments explaining the problem. For this specific post, the mod could also look up the quote, find matching photos, and verify that the other monument hasn’t been torn down recently. However, it’s not always that easy.
It would also be good for users to delete their own posts when something is wrong, or at the very least to edit the title with added context.
lol I saw one for copilot which was along the lines of
“Which sweater should I wear today, red or blue”
“I can’t answer that, what are you going for”
“Hot”
“Pick red because it will make a bold statement”

I have Jellyfin, but I haven’t tried it with music. How does it compare to Navidrome?
For chat, I was thinking something super simple for the weird situations like this. Alternatively, Briar if you’re near the person you want to contact
I got the test messages I exchanged with a friend earlier, but new messages are still stuck
It makes me wish I was selfhosting more services, music & chat in particular. It wasn’t important enough to set up yet
Is there no way to check the doorbell video locally?

Technology@lemmy.world•Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber wants an AI agent in every board meetingEnglish
971·25 days agoHanneke Faber became CEO of Logitech on December 1, 2023, after leaving her role as group president at Unilever. Since joining the Swiss peripheral manufacturer, Faber has attracted attention for her unconventional ideas about how personal technology should evolve – often with a focus on benefiting shareholders and companies first.
Faber is now best known for proposing the so-called “Forever Mouse” concept – a device with constantly evolving firmware features built on base hardware that customers would purchase only once. According to Faber, users would happily pay monthly or annual subscriptions to access these software-based upgrades. However, no concrete business plans have yet been announced to bring the idea to market.
Regarding pricing, the CEO compared the mouse to a Rolex watch and the software to Logitech’s video conferencing business. A paid subscription is possible, but Faber offered no further details.

Is tailscale running / logged in on those other devices? Does it auto detect the server like it did on the phone?
Ah, I can see how the ‘name’ field can be misinterpreted. That was supposed to be the short name of the community, and it will appear in the URL. Unfortunately, that field can’t be changed after the community as been created. Even if we mess with the database on lemmy.ca, it might show up incorrectly elsewhere.
Since the community is just starting out, the easiest would be to make a new one with the name that you want.
There are also a few other communities that you might enjoy:
It’s totally up to you if you want to post in those or if you want to build your own community. If you want to build your own, you can also cross post to / from these communities to help it grow.

Do I need to rewatch from season 1 to get things/jokes?
Nope, they explain any weird rules/procedures when they need to
Anything to keep in mind while I watch?
Nothing comes to mind, it’s a low stress and wholesome show that I like to watch with family :)


















Hello,
Please keep the original title when making a link post, or leave the link field empty so that it appears as a text post. That way it’s clear to everyone that these are your words and not the headline of the article. Some apps/clients can make that confusing for users.
In your case, it would be easiest to edit the post and clear the link field. You can keep the link that you already have in the body of the post.
Otherwise the post will be removed by one of the mods.
Thank you :)
