Joe Biden lays out new student debt relief plan after supreme court ruling
  • Biden promised to now turn to the Higher Education Act of 1965 to restore student debt relief. He also plans to enact a 12-month repayment program that would help people with student debt avoid defaulting on their loans if they couldn’t pay and avoid years of bad credit ratings.

  • Movie recommendation site
  • I really like taste.io! You rate movies on a scale of 1-4 (Awful, Meg, Good, Great) and it recommends you similar movies

  • Orca rams into yacht off Shetland in first such incident in northern waters
  • Can anyone explain why this is becoming a trend? Is there some reason why different groups of orcas would be attacking vessels?

  • Whenever I see stuff like this, I just feel bad for the millions of people who have been hoodwinked and brainwashed by Fox News.

  • 2023 Canadian Grand Prix Closing Thread
  • Was really hoping to see a fight between Nando and Hamilton at the end there, but I suppose that scrap for 9th was an okay substitute!

  • Max Verstappen takes pole position for the 2023 Canadian Grand Prix
  • What the hell were the Ferraris doing today, seemed like every other lap one was stopped in the middle of the track right before the chicane

  • FYI, Lemmy and Kbin are Progressive Web Apps, meaning you can install them as regular apps to your phone's home screen
  • Thanks for the correction, not sure why the PWA install didn't work for me on regular Firefox a few days ago, but it does work now.

  • FYI, for Firefox on android, I had to use Firefox Nightly for this, as the main version doesn't support PWAs (for some reason)

    Edit: I take it back, when I tried to do the install on regular Firefox a few days ago, it didn't work. It does work now, so regular Firefox works for this!

  • Is it normal to feel nervous about starting a magazine? Like I want to be excited with other people about Queens of the Stoneage's new upcoming album, but I don't know if I'd be the right person to st
  • @cygnus-velum@kbin.social I’ve definitely been looking for a place to discuss the new QOTSA, what’d you have in mind? A magazine for just QOTSA or something more general, like for alternative rock or stoner rock or something like that? Also, feel free to come over here and discuss!

  • [FRESH ALBUM] Queens Of The Stone Age - In Times New Roman…
  • After a full listen, I think that the overall sound of the record is really good, Homme’s vocal performance is great, and there are definitely some really groovy guitar parts throughout. I think the main thing I’m missing is some seriously heavy instrumental sections that just make my jaw drop, which are some of my favorite parts of other QOTSA and adjacent projects (thinking about Song For The Dead, Keep Your Eyes Peeled, No One Loves Me and Neither Do I).

    My favorite songs are probably Obscenery, Paper Machete, and What The Peephole Say. I’d probably rate the album as a 7/10 if I had to rate it? But I’m really excited to see how the individual tracks grow on me as I keep spinning this over the next little while!

  • [FRESH ALBUM] Queens Of The Stone Age - In Times New Roman…
  • Before I even form an opinion on the music, I just know that I need to buy this on vinyl just for that album art and the red record…

  • Queens Of The Stone Age - In Times New Roman…

    How are we feeling about this new release from QOTSA?

    What do you all use for password management?
  • No, I did not know that, but now I do! I'll see if it works more like I want it to now haha. Thanks!

  • What do you all use for password management?
  • I recently got my first Apple product in about 10 years or so and I’ve been using BitWarden on all my other devices, but it’s not quite as convenient on this iPad. Is the built-in Keychain good and secure? Like I said, I’ve just been out of the Apple ecosystem for a long time.

  • What is going on with Beehaw?
  • I guess nobody was out of the loop on anything since this magazine was created lol

  • What is going on with Beehaw?
  • Thank you, that is a perfect answer! Tbh, I also sort of just wanted to get a post up to jumpstart this community because I think the subreddit is one of the most useful for figuring out what's going on. Hope this gets the ball rolling!

  • OutOfTheLoop @kbin.social bleuy007 @kbin.social

    What is going on with Beehaw?

    I saw a post talking about whether or not to defederate with Beehaw, and then I saw a comment talking about a decision that Beehaw made and something about them being liberal, but I'm ootl. Could someone explain the situation?

    Quick, make as many Magazines as possible!
  • I honestly feel like this is slightly cynical, because I think it’s much more likely that someone was coming to a new platform and looking for a specific community that they enjoyed lurking on in the past. Once they got here and saw it wasn’t created, they created it themselves in the hope that other people (or maybe even themselves in the future) would work together to populate it with content. While this is not necessarily super helpful to building the community, it does have some value because someone now can come along and find a magazine with an audience already prepared for content, instead of having to build it themselves.

    The branding for kbin is perfect
  • A bit of self-deprecating humor (or maybe self-awareness) never hurt anyone

  • Spider-man Across the Spiderverse is a genuine 10/10
  • I think the main compliment I can give this movie is that I never once checked the time. When "To be continued" hit and I realized the movie was over, I could have sat there and watched another 2+ hours. The incredible animation, likable main characters, entertaining side characters/cameos, and compelling story all combine to make Across the Spider-Verse intensely watchable, and I really can't wait for the next movie.
