My dog and I got jumped by raccoons this morning. Now I have to pay at least $1500 to make sure I don't get rabies
  • The simple fact that untreated rabies is almost 100% fatal means that the vaccine is worth it. Not many diseases are almost 100% fatal, and at least this one's preventable if caught.

  • Elon is into anime chicks, turns likes private
  • I've always been of the opinion that a person's go-to insult shows more about themselves than anything else. Like how the people who shout the loudest about gays tend to be closet homosexuals, etc. Same with pedophiles. And Elon is very quick to call someone a pedophile. His whole family is weird and messed up — his father groomed his stepdaughter (Elon's stepsister) that he raised since she was 4 years old, and they have several kids together — so it wouldn't surprise me if Elon is himself a pedophile.

  • NASA secretly takes the Moon down while dismantling the set used to stage the Moon landing (1969)
  • That's what happens when you hire Stanley Kubrick to stage your moon landing video. The guy's such a perfectionist, he insisted on shooting on location.

  • Smartphones without a selfie camera?
  • ~~Not always. More and more phones in the budget range utilize a "virtual" proximity sensor which actually uses the camera for the same function.~~

  • Smartphones without a selfie camera?
  • You're thinking of the gyroscope, but no. Some phones have a dedicated proximity sensor for things like detecting if you're in a call and have the phone up to your ear, but more and more phones (especially the budget ones) these days use a "virtual" proximity sensor which utilizes the front camera to perform the same function.

  • Amish communities are using a surprising new kind of vehicle to travel long distances: ‘It’s a lot quicker’
  • You can tell it's a religion because they've got the hypocrisy part down pat.

  • Kbin Usability Pack 0.3.6 - Mobile UI and compatibility with next Kbin version
  • That was quick. Can confirm that the fix works.

    Also, unrelated to KUP, but for some reason, I can't seem to upvote/favorite your comments in this thread. Only yours, too, since it seems to work fine for others. Weird.

  • Kbin Usability Pack 0.3.6 - Mobile UI and compatibility with next Kbin version
  • Updated to 0.3.3 on Fennec for Android, and now it seems I can't tap on the hamburger menu icon. Disabled all other extensions and userscripts, leaving only KUP, and can confirm that this seems to be an issue with this script.

  • Nimona (2023) is probably the second best movie I've seen this year! Have you/will you see it?
  • The button doesn't seem to be available in Kbin. What's the markup code for it? I'll just do it manually.

  • Nimona (2023) is probably the second best movie I've seen this year! Have you/will you see it?
  • Some major spoilers below! Since there's no markup for spoiler text yet, here's a gap to indicate spoilers. If you haven't seen the movie yet, skip this comment.

    spoiler

    Loved the movie, but found that the ending was the weakest part. I don't mind the resolution we got, it's just how we got that resolution that has some parts missing. How did the people suddenly go from fearing her to calling her a hero? Sure, she saved the city from getting blown up, but one act alone doesn't easily undo a thousand years of prejudice. After all, it doesn't seem like anyone knows the truth about what happened between Nimona and Gloreth. How did they clear Nimona's name of the Director's accusation? Who runs the kingdom now? Why didn't that dudebro knight get his face punched in? The ending was fine, but they glossed over a lot of parts that would have made the ending make more sense.

    Edit: Well, looks like the Lemmy spoiler code doesn't work on Kbin.

  • TIFU by accidentally choosing a nazi username
  • I'm pretty sure 1990 was ten years ago.

  • Call out post for a particular karma farmer on kbin.social
  • Maybe the moron didn't realise downvotes were public?

  • I haven't seen anyone mention the kbin native(?) app!? I tried it and it seems perfect and amazing?
  • As of a few days ago, Tampermonkey wasn't compatible with Firefox Android (it's what I tried first). There was a way to get Firefox Beta to install Tampermonkey, but it wasn't straightforward. This happens often with the official Firefox Stable, where add-on compatibility gets left behind sometimes during updates.

  • I haven't seen anyone mention the kbin native(?) app!? I tried it and it seems perfect and amazing?
  • If you think that's nice, try it with the Kbin Usability Pack userscript. You'll need the Tampermonkey extension to use it, so you'll have to get Fennec (a fork of Firefox mobile) on F-Droid to use it. A bit of a hassle, but well worth it. I pair it with the Kbin Enhancement Script.

  • Bluesky temporarily halts sign-ups because so many people are joining from Twitter
  • No. It's decentralized like the Fediverse, but it doesn't use ActivityPub. I think there are some 3rd party developers working on an ActivityPub-Bluesky bridge, but nothing concrete yet.

  • Kbin Usability Pack 0.3.6 - Mobile UI and compatibility with next Kbin version
  • It's not in Tampermokey nor do you need to fiddle with the code. It adds a section to the settings page for the script's various toggles. If you're on mobile, click on the menu icon, then the settings (gear) icon, then scroll down to see the script settings. You may need to toggle open the settings panel.

  • Twitter locked behind login page.
  • And that, Musky, is why sites generally provide an API and don't lock it behind prohibitive pricing. Because the alternative is to scrape your site, and that's more resource intensive for the site in question.
