What dongle do you recommend?

Ron Howard:

Thunder shows the mod for each modlog action.

Preach! I need all my keyboard shortcuts, dammit.

catbox.moe is a very popular (especially on Lemmy) and reliable media hosting site. It happened to be down earlier today but it’s back up now.

I think you meant @Fizz@lemmy.nz

I recommend listening to The Dollop episode about the New York Oysters. It’s crazy (as are most of their episodes!).

Thank you! God the official site is so bad.

That looks like Thunder! You should check out the latest version; it has an improved Block Management page.

I prefer just about every third-party UI to the official one…

Don’t forget Playlet for Roku!

• Windows: FreeTube
• Android: NewPipe
• Roku: Playlet

The trifecta!

Hey I just wanted to say, thank you for sending me down the rabbit hole of both of these texts. Fascinating!

Regarding the Voynich Manuscript, and to be fair to the person you’re responding to, with no current decipherment, there is a good possibility it’s a hoax.

Churchill acknowledges the possibility that the manuscript is either a synthetic forgotten language (as advanced by Friedman), or else a forgery, as the preeminent theory. However, he concludes that, if the manuscript is a genuine creation, mental illness or delusion seems to have affected the author.

Also the Codex Seraphinianus is much newer and self-admittedly describes an imaginary world in an imaginary language.

Anyway, thanks again for the Wikipedia adventure. :D

Is my client bugging or is this comment empty?

is anyone aware of how to properly link comments on lemmy?

As far as I know, there is no way right now. There’s some discussion of having a more agnostic identifier here, but seemingly no movement yet.

The best you can get right now is using an extension like Instance Assistant for Lemmy, but that only helps you, not the person you’re responding to.

That said, if you use a mobile app (I use Thunder) it will usually handle post/comment links in-app, so it doesn’t matter what instance they link to.

Thanks for the explanation! I just tried the API passing my own user ID as the creator_id and I seem to be getting back all messages. :( If they can add an endpoint or parameter to get a “conversation” (i.e., all messages incoming/outgoing to/from a specific user) then a chat-style interface would be much easier to implement!

Don’t messages sent by you come back in a list together with any received ones?

Oh wow, you’re right! Somehow I totally missed that. Even Thunder displays sent messages.

So you’re right. You could get all incoming messages from a specific user by passing creator_id but you just couldn’t get all the message you sent to a specific person without getting everything and filtering them.

I ran across a Flutter package that provides a cool chat style widget which inspired me to start working on this. But then I discovered that there’s no API call to retrieve your sent messages. So we could display all the incoming messages from each user like chats, but not sent ones (unless we remembered the ones we sent in Thunder, but that wouldn’t be everything).

Win+Pause/Break opens properties of your PC (on Windows obviously).
