39-Year-Old Ben Shapiro Sets Barbie Dolls on Fire to Protest “Woke” Movie | The Humanist Report
  • No, it’s a portrayal of how women were treated not long ago everywhere. And the ending hints at how women are mostly treated now. Dunno man, maybe we didn't watch the same movie.

  • I don’t think the movie “hates” on men thought.

  • [Possible bug] kBin keeps freezing on Firefox
  • Sorry for misunderstanding, I should've been more clear: I do use extensions, namely uBlock, Tampermonkey and bitwarden, but I was also using them when everything ran smooth.
    What I meant I didn't quite understand was "try creating a vanilla prefix (firefox -P), then testing it there".

  • Lemmy is more left leaning because the rights popularity seen on other social media are driven by bots that are not here.
  • Yup, pretty much. And most of the times I've seen right wing people just come comment the most batshit crazy thing imaginable. This doesn't mean left wing lunatics don't exist too.

  • You're in for a bad ride then. There will always be politics in some magazines/threads.

  • Could you be more specific? I kind of get what you are saying, but I didn't test extensions until now so it's kind of an alien language.

  • I had it happen both on kbin and federated threads. I'll link one when I encounter this again.

  • I hope Warner Bros. marketing is paying attention...

    [Possible bug] kBin keeps freezing on Firefox

    As the title says I've noticed that in the past day kBin often freezes up when I view a thread (Firefox pops up asking me if I want to stop the tab or not). I use Firefox on EndeavourOS but I didn't have any problems with it for the past 2 weeks.

    Is anyone else encountering this/is it a new bug?

  • I watched it and I don't recall even one scene about gays. People are retarded.

  • Is there a Linux mail app that's similar to the default one in Windows 10/11
  • He said he’s using Arch so it should be available. I got it on my EndeavourOS and I’m really satisfied.

  • Say goodbye to the name Twitter’s Bird. Elon Musk changing Twitter logo to ‘X’
  • I grew such hatred for this man in the past years I wish he would just ruin himself and not hear a delusional thing from him ever again.

  • I've found myself reading much, much more since Reddit killed third-party apps.
  • Glad to hear man, I'm in a bit of a reading slumber sadly, but I'm happy others are better ◝(ᵔᵕᵔ)◜

  • KES 2.0.0: improved cross-platform compatibility, more stable, many new features
  • Probably already requested, but can the floating subscribed magazines panel be added? It's quite handy to be able to quickly see all the magazines you're subscribed too, instead of having to enter a separate page.

  • Why do people post so much crap on linkedin?
  • I agree. Of all the social media platforms I've used, Linkedin is the closest to an insane asylum I could get.

  • Help me find a fitting distro
  • Thanks for the suggestion, I decided to give EndeavourOS a try and so far I'm really happy with it.

  • First days with daily driving Linux
  • What scaling do you use? I tried 1.20 but it gives me a bit of a weird feeling.

  • First days with daily driving Linux
  • Laptop, kind of a must have because of University. I preferred Gnome as it was a mature DE I could’ve left untouched theoretically. Although that was not the case :D

  • First days with daily driving Linux
  • Unironic, I had the idea of using Edge, mainly because on W11 it was running better than Firefox. Thought decided to give Firefox another go and see if I’m satisfied.

  • First days with daily driving Linux
  • You can reply here to me if something doesn’t work and maybe I can help.

  • Not really a fuck up but couldn’t come up with a better category. I mostly searched everything by myself.

  • [EndeavourOS] Addendum to the official installation tutorial

    Hi everyone, I moved from W11 to EndeavourOS as daily driver and I encountered the following problem while installing LoL using the official tutorial with Lutris https://leagueoflinux.org/install/lutris/: after the client would finish downloading and I exited it the installation would remain stuck indefinitely.

    Turns out for it to finish you either have to exit the client from the system tray or kill the process from terminal. Then everything works fine.

    PS: I'm dumbfucked by the fact that LoL runs better on EndeavourOS than it did on W11.

    Subscriber count on federated magazines not accuretely shown

    While reading this article https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/97300/Consulation-sur-la-direction-de-cette-communaute I observed OP said something about the community being over 1000 members, yet in the sidebar it was showing to me (in kBin) there were only 92. I double checked by going to lemmy.world and those 92 were ONLINE subscribers.

    Has anyone else encountered this bug?

    My Brilliant Friend really is brilliant

    I think many of you know the feeling of being in a reader's slumber: you both want to read but whatever you are reading right now just isn't cutting it. This was my case for the past months: while I absolutely loved reading The Karamazov Brothers, I barely made any progress due to it being quite a dense book and me being stressed with my Bachelor's Thesis.

    But here comes Elena Ferrante with her (?) My Brilliant Friend. A very easy to read book that is also filled with depth. Maybe my recent trip to Napoli, the city in which the book's story takes place, had an effect on me, but I loved the way Ferrante paints the post-war city with all its harsh conditions: poverty, violence, lack access to education, young girls' being treated as sort of a commodity, while boys are forced to work from a young age to help their families and so much more.

    It's really refreshing to read women written by a woman (presumably, as Ferrante is just a nickname and her true identity isn't public) and it already feels (at least for me) as a classic despite being written a mere decade ago. I'm looking forward to finishing the other 3 of the Neapolitan Novels, but Ferrante is already on my best authors.

    Are comments broken?

    Didn't have this problem the past days, but today I got notifications from people replying to my comments. I click on them, and it navigates me to the article's page, but I cannot see the replies to my comments. Just as to make sure they are not deleted I navigated to those user's profile and saw that the comments indeed exist, but are not displayed correctly on the article. Happened with a reply from someone on lemmy and someone from kbin. Anyone else experiencing this?

    LE: seems to only happen in Tree view of the comments, don't know if this is a new feature or not. Classic and Chat views work fine.

    Sustainability of kbin

    First of all I would like to suggest to @ernest to take a day or two break from working on kbin and in general to not overwork himself. Secondly, some sort of Patreon should be setup to streamline the donation process. I, probably like many others would like to just set up a recurring donation and forget about it. Thirdly, I think it would be great we also have something like https://beehaw.org/post/428209 to keep this as transparent as possible.

    Federation status: ON

    Seems like the federation was turned on not long ago. It's very exciting to be part of kbin's growth!
