I set iOS to automatically open that site in reader mode which not only gets you the full text it hides all the ads too.

I’m sure android has something similar if you’re on mobile.

…but you are right - it is trash…

Huh - that’s really weird because I was up to $1500 through October of last year…

Unfortunately zero-indexed Mondays are the only sane way to live life…

I don’t know Yvon of the Yukon, but maybe Northern Exposure?

Troping Cals obvs…

The reason is in the modlog ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I just use DND - Not sure what you mean by “DND still makes you receive the notifications”

You mean like Critical Alerts? I think they’re rare enough and potentially important enough that I’d like to get them

Wow!
AI is like Uber for Cliffs Notes!

I have those stairs with that carpet.

💯% this is looking down to a mattress at the bottom of the stairs.

Conclusive evidence:
Looking Down

Looking Up

(Sorry I was too lazy to get the low perspective)

But not Dennis, right?

Dennis is not a menace…

That’s actually a bowl of basil.

…should clear things up for you.

Then don’t say it.

Just a shower thought…

…not a sermon?

Thanks. I haven’t had time to do much more than register and read a brief Usenet FAQ over on the fuck-spez site.

Just so I’m clear, DS is an indexer; not a provider, right? If that’s right, any suggestion on providers or how to find/choose one?

I recently bumped my monthly instance donations by 20%.

I hope to be able to cover as many folks who can’t afford it as I can…

I’ve never really used Usenet but I guess it’s worth registering for while I figure out if it’s something I want to use…

You’re right and Lemmy.ml’s reputation has contributed to my hesitation in donating to development. But I also use Mastodon pretty regularly and I haven’t contributed to its development either. I have no explanation.

I made this post hoping to get some input on how folks divvy donations up amongst the three and maybe pressure myself into doing it.

You just sent me on a real journey. In high school if you’d asked me or my friends, we would have told you I was a huge Pink Floyd fan.

When I thought about what my favorite album was I realized all I really knew were pretty basic-bitch albums. DSOTM, The Wall, Is there Anybody Out There; and Piper at the Gates of Dawn.

Then I started thinking about how I could feel like such a fan and only have so few albums. Then I realized this was before music was pervasively available to listen to for free at any time.

I distinctly remember the day I decided I was splurging on The Wall double CD set. I’d been stalking it at the record store for months, but it was $30 in 1994 (that’s sixty-five inflation adjusted dollars in 2025!) so I’d kept passing on it despite desperately wanting it.

TL;DR: I’m old but now I’m catching up on some good music I’d missed out on
