Where are folks hosting images they want to post to kbin? Uploading images never works for me, and using imgur link gets no thumbnail.
  • I use IMGBB, been using it for my Friendica as it gives convenient cut and paste BB Code which Friendica can parse. I did test Kbin and found it parses the HTML code they offer... Or at least did when I was testing, let's see, does this work?

    Is Kbin a right solution for a blog?
  • I quite like Friendica for the purpose, venera.social I believe is one of the founding instances.

    The Pentagon plans to shake up DC’s National Guard, criticized for its response to protests, Jan. 6
  • DC is a bit of an oddity, it's not a state, so there's no governor to deploy the guard, plus much of their governance has to be approved by Congress, this is part of the reason that there's a push for DC statehood, residents are getting tired of this mess.

    How did Futurama have so many celebrity guest appearances?
  • Celebrities don't always cost much, you have to remember that those high rates they get paid are optional, there's a base pay for actors, and they can take that rather than their typical high pay if'n they want. Throw in that in a lot of ways voice acting is easier (no costumes, make up, no standing around for a scene to be set up, etc), and it's effectively a quick and easy buck for actors.

  • The UX, the other is...

    ...inline images, assuming that still works. I store my images on IMGBB which gives copy and paste code for the images, and this works here but not on Lemmy.

    Mastercard Move at Cannabis Shops Intensifies Call for US Decriminalization
  • This is also why Tumblr maintains it's ban on porn, Visa and Mastercard exclusively process their own cards, and wield that as a weapon against what they don't like.

    *Permanently Deleted*
  • I've tried it a couple times, it's neat, lots of features, but that makes it a bit confusing. I've also had trouble finding a stable English speaking general purpose server that's reliable, all the one's I used were down more than they were up. You might want to look at Calkey or whatever they're calling it now, that's an active fork.

    Why and How to Pack the Court
  • I think we need a new Judicial Act that fixes the flaws with the original. Tie the number of justices to... the number of Appellate Courts? I think that's where they got the original number of nine from, though it's grown as the country has grown. Extend the Federal Judicial Ethics rules to all Federal courts, even the Supreme Court. Those two at the very least, maybe we can come up with some other good things, qualifications? Term limits? Age limits?
