    What's the dumbest reason you've learned a programming language?
  • Arduino and Python to create a sexy machine that syncs up to videos. Oh I also made the sex machine part, like machining metal parts and soldering electronics.

    Underconsumption Rule
  • I use tap water and my old Gatorade bottles. I drink about a Gatorade a day so I only need to reuse the bottles once or twice.

  • They're making them illegal in a lot of states. Texas recently de-banned them but could reverse that decision at any time. They would be an ideal choice otherwise.

  • I'd love an el cameno, or something similar. I'd like to be able to see something on the side of the road and pick it up while still having the car size and mpg

    Quick question, anyone know what a "good" dating app is these days?
  • I found Boo. It has more non-standard people on it. I tend to say it has more "weirdos" and, being a weirdo, it has more of what I'm looking for. It also has more friends and not just dating.

  • Hello, so I've been watching and enjoying this community. I remember watching various different seasons/generations as a child and I liked them. I'm sure there is a lot I missed and figured I need a new hyperfixation. As an adult I've only watched the original series when it was on Netflix. I remember a lot of Picard, and some with the woman captain. (Probably more, but I've done too many drugs between them and now)

    So, as someone with a basic/broad understanding of Star Trek, where should I start my dive into this show?

    I have a large audible library I would like to backup and make available for other audiobook apps that use less battery. I'd like to maintain as much information and structure as possible. I saw a self hosted solution for audiobooks I might try to implement as well.

    What programs or processes work best for this?

    Scenario: me killing time by doom scrolling lemmy. I see a post linking to a news article. The next 4 posts are the exact same post in the same community by the same user but on a different instance.

    I understand the general mechanics behind lemmy so I know this is standard behavior. However, this can become quite tedious and annoying.

    My suggestion: when the device pulls new posts if the same title, content, and user are detected, it combines them into one post. For comments, it creates a "root/parent comment" for each instance.

    Up and down votes could be an issue though. My resolution to this would be when you press up/down vote a drop-down menu appears with "All" followed by all the different instances. I can think of lots of different mechanics for multi selections.

    For the main feed, where the instance is normally stated, it states only the community followed by "multiple" or similar. When tapped, instead of taking you to that community on that instance, it has the equivalent of a help bubble pop up listing the instances so you could visit each one.

    It would also be nice if something like this was possible for duplicate posts on the same instance across multiple communities.

    I've found an issue that if I upvote a notification I can't tap the check to clear it. I have to refresh the notifications page to clear it. It may also be that the have to be checked off in order such as top to bottom or bottom to top. I'm not positive what's making it unclearable.
