That’s an elaborate description of how to make them, without telling you what they are.

“Cocktail pods are small, single-use packets that contain all the ingredients you need to make a specific cocktail. All you have to do is add alcohol and water, and you’re ready to go.”

Reminds me somewhat of Hurricane Katrina.

“The streets are on FIRE and they wont spread the news nationally . They wont send help. People call for emergency assistance and no one picks up the phone . #Sicily”

Crazy video of widespread fires:

I joined the WGA in 1986 and have been through several strikes with them. We made gains in all of them, but some issues are more important than others… and this year’s strike is the most important of my lifetime.

Well, stranger, I’m glad you don’t have Covid. Sorry about the scentless soap though.

Maybe you’ve got Covid?

yes

Oh right, that…

Even though it says Subscription Pending, you should effectively already be subscribed.

How’s the no poop challenge community in the Fediverse? I find that mildly amusing.

Anyway, I find your strategy for creating multi-Lemmies to be creative, effective, and harmless.

Thank you. That’s marvelous!

the Poop post?

Still learning reddit hacks after all these years.

Even though email is supposedly “open”, and federated, is no longer is really the case. Big services like Gmail are suspicious of non-big-name servers, and often flag email coming from them as spam.

About a year ago I came across an article from a guy who’d been running his own email server since the 90s, and finally gave up. I couldn’t find that article in my quick search, but I did find this:

“I run my own email server. It’s no longer a good idea, because the anti-spam arms race makes delivery from small independent servers very difficult, even when you keep yourself off the block lists, so it’s a continuous struggle. Would switch, but I have too many domains/addresses”

Well, my understanding is that email is federated, and SMS text messages are federated, but it isn’t easy to email a phone number, or send a text to someone’s email. So I’m surprised that Kbin and Lemmy can talk to each other.

But I see someone else answered that Lemmy, Kbin, and Mastodon all speak the same underlying protocol, ActivityPub. Now it’s starting to make sense.
