Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Looking to get a water flosser, what are good qualities to look for? Is waterpik worth the price?
6·11 days agoWhen my Waterpik broke after years of use I was happily surprised to learn they still had replacement parts available.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Local newspaper presents paid political advertising in the same format as a regular news articleEnglish
3·13 days agoNo. I am not sure how we could even craft such a law in the current US legal climate. Political speech, and money tied to political speech, are nearly impossible to regulate in any meaningful way.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Maybe a better Threadiverse Major Defederations Graph?English

1·19 days agoIn such a case, would the two instances still effectively be defederated?
I think so? That’s what I would expect, at least.

23·19 days agoIf you want to complicate the graph further, I believe hexbear federates using an allow list. Blahaj, lemmy.ca, and sh.itjust.works are not on the allow list, so they are effectively defederated. I haven’t looked further to see which other large instances may be affected.

55·19 days agoThe beehaw.org/sh.itjust.works defederation is really one-way. Beehaw defederated from us after some exceptionally bad trolls were operating from sh.itjust.works in 2023. IIRC, they requested that we also defederate from them to really make sure the split was made. We honored their request.
We would happily reconnect if Beehaw decided they want to federate with us again. If not, then that’s fine; they have a right to associate with whomever they like.
I believe infosec.pub temporarily defederated from us around the same time for the same reason. It was a rough time.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What good things have happened to you, or for you, over the last week?
2·23 days agoYeah, a good pair of boots is a wonderful thing. “Never cheap out on anything that separates you from the ground” and all that. My old pair are heavy-duty hiking boots that have taken me all over the mountains. But my feet are getting wider as I get older. A bad blister last week finally spurred me to shop for something new.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What good things have happened to you, or for you, over the last week?
2·23 days agoMy region is known for cherries and (to a lesser extent) peaches. So as far as climate goes, I would say they fit right in with other stone fruit.
As for care, I am a clumsy and sometimes negligent caretaker. The tree is well established in my backyard and does not seem to need much aside from water. I prune it every year or two (my pruning jobs are ugly but the tree doesn’t seem to care). The biggest chore is picking up all of the fallen fruit before it attracts too many wasps.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What good things have happened to you, or for you, over the last week?
9·23 days agoI bought new boots, and they are a huge upgrade for my old boots. I should have done this years ago! So much lighter, so much more comfortable.
Also, my backyard apricot tree produced a fantastic crop this year. The freezer is full of fruit for making jam in autumn when the weather is cooler, and the dehydrator has been running nightly.

18·1 month agoOr having masked secret police arresting and deporting whomever they wish with no due process?
They were totally criminals bro. Trust me bro. No, you can’t see any evidence. And no, I won’t bring them back. They’re gone, bro, it’s out of our hands now.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What country do you live in and where would you choose to live if you could?
71·1 month agoUS, if my avatar didn’t already make that clear. My short list is Canada, Norway, Germany, France, New Zealand, Chile, in no particular order. Basically, places with snowy mountains and ski resorts.
It’s hard to pick just one place, though. There are so many beautiful and interesting spots in the world.
