I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

For anyone that has friends that can be convinced to move off snapchat:
If what they want is the “One weird trick your doctor is hiding from you” style content on the discover page, then I got nothing.
Maybe part of the solution should be to change how we talk about products or make recommendations. Such as describing what to look for in a product instead of the product itself.
Make the bots more obvious
Here it is

A key to making the device effective was the discovery that flies are three times more attracted to the color blue than to yellow and that yellow actually seemed to repel flies.
Well TIL, maybe it’s the color?
My original guess was that red watermelons are more common and so flies have evolved to crave it. You could also try with other fruits and report back 😄

Futurama - Thompson’s teeth, the only teeth strong enough to eat other teeth
I found this (rather toxic) thread talking about turning it off. Doesn’t seem like it’s possible normally, but I’ll be curious how GRAPHENE IS handles it.

Ah it’s only available in the US too
The new version also hasn’t been around for that long, so it might face issues that will be worked out over time. We already had a post on a Lemmy android community about moisture issues
Can anyone explain this one?
I end up using some blog post when that happens because the forums make no sense
It could be the price of advertising, but I feel like this is one of those cameras where you need to connect it to your wifi or make an account with them
I guess it could end up being an arms race.
What if the tool was more of a toolbox, where each instance could configure it the way that they want (ex. Thresholds before something is flagged, etc.) Similar to how automod works, where the options are well known but it’s hard to tell what any particular space is running behind the scenes.
At the very least, tools like this can make it harder for silent vote manipulation even if it doesn’t stop it entirely
Similar with trying to explain the Fediverse. It doesn’t come up often, but the explanation is sometimes just
Non-profit run social media
While not entirely accurate since you can run an instance for profit, it’s been the case for pretty much every instance and it’s definitely true for the side I’m helping with
!microblogmemes@lemmy.world is leaking, love to see it

I think what we need is an automated solution which flags groups of accounts for suspect vote manipulation.
We appreciate the work you put into this, and I imagine it took some time to put together. That will only get harder to do if someone / some entity puts money into it.

Ah any reason why Firefox decided not to include WebSerial?
Maybe you don’t want to buy the Station, or you left it at home. In either event, you can simply plug the iron into your computer and configure it via WebSerial.
You’ll need a browser based on Chrome to pull this trick off, as Mozilla has decided (at least, for now) to not include the capability in Firefox. In testing, it worked perfectly on both my Linux desktop and Chromebook.
Unfortunately, plugging the iron into your phone won’t work, as the mobile version of Chrome does not currently support WebSerial. But given the vertical layout of the interface and the big touch-friendly buttons, I can only assume that iFixit is either banking on this changing soon or has a workaround in mind. Being able to plug the iron into your phone for a quick settings tweak would be incredibly handy, so hopefully it will happen one way or another.
The WebSerial interface not only gives you access to all the same settings as plugging the iron into the Power Station does, but it also serves as the mechanism for updating the firmware on the iron.
Also a few of the flats have donation boxes, and hopefully over time that’ll be enough to keep the party going :)
From the last paragraph, it sounds like the intent is to make it easier to switch devices and services, which would be great
