Yes, twice a couple of years ago. I also have been to other cities but several years ago and I thought maybe it was a recent popular thing. And yes, nearly all the way from the airport to the hotel the roads were flanked with that kind of billboards.

Spain here, and both were turned on by default. Had to deactivate.

Many things. To say some…Billboards with lawyers advertising for things like demands after accidents. Like dozens one after another on the road.

So much sugar in everything. Last time I was there had to throw to the bin a yogurt. Was so sweet It was awful. Prices of “fresh” food.

Tips for everything. Going to a restaurant and have to tip like 20% of the bill, or even more, is crazy.

Wáter consumtion. Like big golf camps completely green in the middle of a desert (Vegas). When asked about It, people there just answered “no problem, we have the Hoover Dam for that”.

Lack of public transport outside four or five big cities. And that just walking on the streets in some places is very strange fot the people living there. I was asked ten years ago in Palo Alto if I was Russian because I was not driving, just walking on the street!!

Sorry not sorry. Found another company that does not need to rob people and other companies to make money. Also: breaking the law should make this kind of people face grim consequences. But nothing will happen.

Reducing the time spent at work (insane in South Korea, more than 65 hours per week in many cases) seem not a problem for them. Also doesn,t seem to be a problem the insane cost in extra curricular classes children attend to there, a country where the majority of the children have to bear mad timetables, with classes even finishing at 10PM at night. But again, women are to blame. And the solution is putting more pressure on them. Right. They are going to be very pleased with this, eager to have 6 children each and to spent a lot of his time like this. Sure.

Ok, we are not coming back anyway

You can show the also the other UIs for the web. Photon is quite decent, the default is not very attractive as you say.

Everything seems to be fine: I had to reload in all the apps and on the desktop. Just a thing, when using the phothon UI I had to manually delete my old session and open a new one with my account, because when I log on again there were two sessions for my account.

Brother. Mine, a laser monochrome, is 12 years old and works perfectly fine

• Left Reddit for Lemmy, only came back several times to seek for specific information in a couple of niche communities
• Started using Firefox again, both in desktop and mobile
• Opened a nextcloud account, with plans to host our own when we have a little more free time
• Autohosted FreshRSS
• Started with Sonarr, Radarr, jellyfin and so on (you can guess what for)
• Mastodon is now my main social network
• Stopped using Windows. If I have to use some applications to interact with my clients I prefer to do it via cloud.

I use it. When I changed my smartphone and my tablet I searched for models with headphones jack. I have a pair of wireles headphones but the sound they produce is terrible, and besides they need to be recharged, so you can find yourself with no battery on them on the middle of a commute, trip or whatever place. I have two pair of JBL cable headphones that costed 10 euros each (way cheaper than the wireless), sound is perfect, never run out of “battery”… Why would I prefer more expensive ones with poor sound quality and ones that I don’t know if they are going to be able to be in use for the time I need them???

This has to end, somehow. Or pretty soon we will have shoes with soles subscription: you want a proper shoe, you will have to pay a monthly quota.

Spez must leave. Meanwhile, the ones leaving are the ones that create the content that gives them visits and money. Very good decisions, yes. What a shame, Aaron Swartz would be shocked and furious, no doubt!

Not that sure. Maybe a big chunk of it are, but there is a lot of people like me coming from reddit that signed yesterday, after doing some research and watching how things were here and on kbin.

Regarding the bots issues, new signups at lemmy.world were closed yesterday for several hours because of attempts to create spammy accounts. So maybe a mix of real accounts and spammy ones.

I was trying to open my account just when lemmy.world was closed earlier. When I pressed the button to create it I only got and enless “charging” animation. But when it reopened, I just started the process again, and was as easy as a breeze and extremely fast. Glad to be here! (and this is my first post)
