Substack promoted a Nazi blog again
Substack promoted a Nazi blog again - Lemmy.World
> Substack sent a push alert encouraging users to subscribe to a Nazi newsletter that claimed Jewish people are a sickness and that we must eradicate minorities to build a “White homeland.” This has been a problem for years: Substack has a Nazi problem - The Atlantic [https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/11/substack-extremism-nazi-white-supremacy-newsletters/676156/] Substack won’t commit to removing Nazi content - TechCrunch [https://techcrunch.com/2024/01/09/substack-nazi-content-policies-controversy/] I don’t think this can be ignored anymore. If you’re on Substack, please consider one of its many fine alternatives. Plus, it’s easy to move these days. Wired wrote about just a few last year [https://www.wired.com/story/best-substack-alternatives/]

Points of No Return in Games - Daryl Talks Games - Lemmy.World
Daryl’s a good essayist and, in my opinion, this one hits a little different, probably even for people who aren’t into video games. It explores our anxiety and how we handle reaching the end of a story… and other things in life. If you have just under 24 hours to spare, I think it’s worth your time.

Looking for theme to do “personal landing page” and blogging
Looking for theme to do “personal landing page” and blogging - Lemmy.World
I want to redesign my personal site around two things: 1 - Home page will be a personal landing page, like those “link in bio” tools to show people where you have accounts on social media, newsletters, etc. (such as https://bio.link/ [https://bio.link/]. I can share a basic personal page I’ve set up there but I don’t know if that’s allowed here) 2 - A decent blog experience, mainly for writing, sharing news links, and art I like (both personal and found) Anyone know of a theme that tackles these two? I’m coming up empty handed with ThemeForest and Template Monster, even when trying variations of these keywords. Thanks
Ars Technica - Apple’s Craig Federighi on the long road to the iPad’s Mac-like multitasking
Ars Technica - Apple’s Craig Federighi on the long road to the iPad’s Mac-like multitasking - Lemmy.World
Nice interview. As an iPad main, I remain cautiously optimistic about the new multitasking and windowing features in general, although it looks like Slide Over is functionally gone. This does not spark joy. I don’t have the beta yet, but I’ve checked with a bunch of people who do. It seems that, because the windowing UI works much more like a Mac, there is no functionality to keep an app off to the side and easily swipe it back and away. If this is true, I am really going to miss Slide Over. Split View is functionally there, which I also use extensively so that makes me happy. I get the iPad has limitations for some people who want to work on it the way they do on a Mac. But part of what I like about the iPad is its simplicity—I don’t have to fiddle with dragging window corners around all day. Open an app, drop a second app next to it. Done. It’s beautiful. Sure, I’ll submit feedback to Apple to bring back Slide Over. But if it is truly dead, I’m gonna learn how to become a witch so I can place a curse on all the houses of the “just make the iPad a Mac” people.

The algorithm just brought this bassist + rapper to me and I’ve gone down the rabbit hole. Crazy talented. And is that a 7-string bass?? Here’s a bonus video with a different vibe [https://youtu.be/9ADEEOnzsXM]. I’m really digging it. He also has some good tapping tracks.
What was your first intentionally bad movie, and what were the circumstances? I'll go first: Cube
What was your first intentionally bad movie, and what were the circumstances? I'll go first: Cube - Lemmy.World
My friends from the fencing team in a Milwaukee, WI suburban catholic high school were bored. We wanted to watch a movie, but didn’t want to spend theater prices. So we went to Blockbuster (!!) in search of something…. else. No, not that you gooner. We invented the rules on the car ride there: - None of us could have seen or even be aware of the movie - None of us can recognize any of the main actors in the film - Sci-fi or fantasy since those seemed to have the cheese we wanted As we strolled along the shelves where most patrons don’t bother, there it was. Like a (bad) diamond in the rough: Cube [https://youtu.be/shcK9b-TQIo] And it was glorious. lol Bonus points: Two friends and I moved out to Denver, CO in the middle of college to go snowboarding and finish school (in that order). One of us became a manager at Blockbuster right at the beginning of the switch from VHS to DVDs. For whatever reason, his store started with the least rented titles they had, and their solution was to just throw all the VHS in the garbage. One day he just showed up from work with ~ 4 or 5 huge garbage bags filled to the brim with the crappiest VHS films Blockbuster deemed unworthy to return to a distributor. Around a week later he did it again. It was the absolute (free!) jackpot of gloriously bad films.
Odd question: Borealis had hotdogs and other items on sale last weekend. Why?
Odd question: Borealis had hotdogs and other items on sale last weekend. Why? - Lemmy.World
Took the Borealis from St. Paul to Milwaukee last weekend. An announcement said they had hot dogs and a couple other items ‘on sale.’ I had planned to get one anyway (don’t judge me), but what is that about? Does it mean something was wrong with them? Just clearing out old stock? The buns were a little chewier than normal.
