The obscure content thing is an issue I’ve run into especially looking for ~70s era sci-fi or horror movies that are regarded as cult classics or underrated online.
Big fan of SBC gaming, open source engine recreations/source ports, gaming in general, alternative operating systems, and all things modding.
Trying to post and comment often in an effort to add to Lemmy’s growth.
The obscure content thing is an issue I’ve run into especially looking for ~70s era sci-fi or horror movies that are regarded as cult classics or underrated online.
If you are looking for software you might want to look for websites that list open source projects.
I can’t really think of decent mega lists though. The FMHY one does have a lot of simply free things but it is mixed in with a lot of pirated content.
Nice to see the article mention the source port
Totally. It’s cool seeing what people are enthusiastic about
I wonder if this came from someone reading about natural nuclear fission reactors.
Totally. I feel like that’s a bit of a holdover from Reddit is all and there’s usual some flexibility here so I’m saying it’s good when people utilize it.
Personally I like altering the title, including the origina title in the text, and maybe a few other articles on the topic or to add context. It doesn’t take much effort on my part and I feel like it shows I’m not just dumping links and might engage in a conversation about it.
It’s more targeted at the lemming who posted this. Considering people can edit post titles and add additional text to a link post there’s not really a risk in trying something more informative. They wouldn’t need to delete their post or match some ultra rigid formatting.
I don’t have any faith in Huffington Post (or several other news outlets) deviating from clickbait. In this situation someone might not recognize the name or act and assume it’s irrelevant to them. I can see why they do it but I don’t like it.
I haven’t seen a lot of people get upset about altered titles on Lemmy. I feel like there’s a general understanding that an accurate title is better.
Some people cite the article’s original headline in the text below the submitted link.
You could start with trying to break associations gradually or creating obstacles.
If you smoke inside for example limiting yourself to smoking outside.
If you use a bong only letting yourself smoke because when it’s clean.
Just be wary of replacing it with other habits like alcohol or nicotine.
Why not edit the title to be a little bit less clickbait?
Maybe something like:
Mark Kelly, A Possible Democratic Veep Pick, Just Changed His Position On Protecting the Right to Organize Act
I once got flak for linking the NSFW source behind an image in a piracy community and someone got mad about it like your workplace is going to be thrilled about you looking for pirated content in a Fake Taxi meme
The amount of conspiracy theories would be unreal
Ah how about GRUB Rescue?
Upgrade to Windows 11 today!
Or
Microsoft Word has periodic automatic saving!
Are some I could see in a dystopian future
Could also be a pie iron thing
They’re also called evaporator coolers. I am not sure if the word swamp refers to it performing a function that might be found around a swamp or how they operate.
Maybe the pool of water at the bottom is referred to as a swamp.
I linked the video but it’s been a while since I watched it. I am not sure if he explains the nomenclature.
Kind of related but here’s a video from Technology Connections if you want to learn more about swamp coolers and why they only work in specific conditions
Here’s my hot take:
This isn’t any worse than manga misspelling words to show a character has an accent.
Beatrix Amerhauser is what made me stop reading Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead.
My bad. I guess I missed the Israel’s part of the title or something and thought it was about changes in US conscription laws similar to how they’ve considered adding conscription for women.
Not sure how I goofed that up
I think they’re aware of your stash of full Family Guy episodes on Youtube featuring random zooms.
Also doesn’t the RIAA only cover the music industry?
