Nah, 13th century was too decentralised. It’s before the development of absolutism, nationionalism, and then totalitariansm. They are more going for late 1930s Italy/Germany style.

I’m still on my 2016 iPhone SE. It’s slow and buggy but for my purposes it’s great and the screen is only 10cm (4in).

It depends. I don’t feel forced to go on there because it has none of my friends. Obviously I’ll go once every few weeks to check out cool photography but I’m really not an active user there.

I was disappointed to learn there was no fediverse Tmbd/Imdb alternative. This looks like it has the potential to become that, among many things

Yeah I like the wavelength analogy — thanks

Lots of food places serve things in plastic containers that are basically made to be drunk with straws.

What do humans sound like? I’m completely deaf and am curious how an animal can perceive sound of others differently.

I think a lot of people start on Lemmy.world and lemmy.ml but then overtime switch to other instances they made alts on. I think it’s a cool way that things work and centralisation gets avoided.

!investing@lemmy.world !personalfinancecanada@lemmy.ca !finance@beehaw.org

Fuck that.

As someone living in a noisy appartment building, can you move in next to me please!

I can solve a Rubik’s Cube in under 15 seconds. (I had an obsessive phase as a teenager). I don’t think I’ve ever used that skill in my adult life, but they are fun figet toys for when I’m stressed.

blahaj is an instance that federates with lemmy.world. So you have access to the content on there.

Check out !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone for example.

BeeHaw does not federate with lemmy.word due to moderation issues. If you want to access beehaw, I recommend making an alt account of a server like https://discuss.online/ or https://sopuli.xyz/

!comicstrips@lemmy.world

is blocked on my instance (lemmy.blahaj.zone). Because the lead mod was banned from blahaj for posting a (non-political) comic strip made by a nazi sympathiser and not apologising.

Yep, just really important to stress it’s a massive oversimplification — but that oversimplification is suprisingly accurate. Maybe like how newtonian mechanics is a massive oversimplification of how the world works but is suprisingly good at predicting things.

Class struggle is a fascinating way of analysing history, and can be a really powerful analytic framework.

But obviously not everything is class, hence, ✨intersectionality✨

Please elaborate

It’s more about a tit for tat, in my area we have right wingers open carrying around leftist protests. So our anarchist groups open carry (unloaded) guns as a sort of “you’re not going to intimidate us” response.

Sorry I’ll let someone more knowledgeable answer about metadata, but signal does allow you to set a username and hide your phone number (so people add you with username instead if f number)
