@OrganicMeatbag@sh.itjust.works Zoom Meeting Barbie - dressed for work waist up. Still in stained PJs and slippers waist down. Hair looks good from the front, but back of her head is a rats nest.

@Abraxas@feddit.uk Never banned. Started exploring alternatives during API changes. Staying on federated because it makes more sense.

Everyone understand how ridiculous it would if you could only email people on same email service, but for some reason we accepted that limitation as normal for social posts for many years.

@DarkFuture@lemmy.world

@return2ozma@lemmy.world That's a pretty short sighted view considering just ~150 years ago the Democrats were the party against abolishing slavery. Times change, but American politics really don't.

Limiting the choice to the lesser of two evils only benefits one of the classes in the real fight. As Alaska (since 2022) and NYC (this week) have shown, RCV allows voters to select who they really want to lead regardless of whether polls say they are "wasting" their vote.

@RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world you are correct. After researching this for just 5 minutes, I was definitely mis-informed. It's shocking that so many brands sell very expensive versions of this like https://www.kohler.com/en/products/bathroom-accessories/shop-bathroom-accessories/bottle-trap-1-1-4-x-1-1-4-9033.

@RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world based on the image, I think a bottle trap would work and be to code most places.

I think the new Drupal CMS install profile + Recipes via the Project Browser makes Drupal MUCH easier to maintain than WP for anyone already familar with Composer or other package managers like npm, gem, homebrew, etc

The idea that most WP sites (that aren't hosted by WP.com) are still maintained by downloading the plugin files from WP.org and then uploading the files to the site blows my mind.

@danishdude1944@feddit.dk my parents bought my brothers and I an Apple IIc a year before the first Mac made it obsolete. We had a Commodore 64 with a cassette tape drive for games.

The first computer I bought with my own (borrow student loan) money was a 120MHz Mac 8500. I bought it before I graduated, took it to the graphic design lab and cloned one of the lab 8500 drives with all the software onto it. A few years later I ended up working at that same university and disposing of hundreds of worthless 8500s.

I was still paying mine off :(

I'm a big fan of SSG for smaller project and don't think you should pick a stack based the social media preferences of developers... but if that's what you are doing, I'll see your single developer on the Fediverse and raise you an entire developer community. https://drupal.community/ ~600 accounts and ~150 MAU.

If you are going to evaluate Drupal in 2025, I STRONGLY encourage you to start with the Drupal CMS install. There are so many optional modules with Drupal, it can be overwhelming.

If you are already familiar with Docker, you can spin up a Drupal CMS instance using DDEV. You'll have no problem Googling that.

If you aren't familiar with Docker and want to try it, https://new.drupal.org/drupal-cms/launcher is a ridiculously easy way to start on most operating systems. That approach gets a little trickier when you want to move the site/cms application instance to a host. There is documentation, but I would look it over before getting too far into this approach.

My recommendation for spinning up a Drupal CMS instance is on a free sandbox on https://docs.pantheon.io/drupal-cms. Acquia offers a free trial in exchange for the information they need to target you with marketing, but it is only a 4 hour trial. Pantheon lets you keep your sandbox as long as you account remains active.

Unfortunately ActivityPub isn't included in any of the Drupal CMS Recipes (yet), so you have to add it with composer require 'drupal/activitypub:^1.0@alpha'.

Composer is npm for PHP. If you are familiar npm, apt-get, homebrrw, pip, gem, etc, you'll have no problem understanding Composer.

@ramble81@lemm.ee I don't understand how this is profitable. We were shopping for a kitchen light fixture. Found the same light at several stores. Ordered it from one that claimed to be in Italy. Item shipped from China. I understand A/B testing and having multiple storefront you treat live burner phones when you get a reputation/review issue, but these sites were all using the same retargetting to place ads in my socials for weeks after the light was installed. Normally I add users to a list NOT to retarget after conversion. The other stores carrying the same product kept advertising something I had already purchased.
