There is !reddead@lemmy.world, but it’s pretty quiet. You could try posting there to get some of that content going. It’s a bit of a vicious cycle, though - the lack of content drives people away, leading to less content.

I will say that even in smaller communities I find that people are quite helpful here with questions, which is great.

It does seem like the post reddit boom of interaction and growth has waned, thought, and many of the communities that were starting to grow are now much quieter than they were a few weeks ago. I think that the lemmy.world downtime for so long really drove people away, which is a shame.

Yeah, even though slow motion makes it look worse, I was shocked that it wasn’t given in real time. But the commentary team was convinced that it was just a natural body position. I continue to have no idea what constitutes a handball in the box.

1. Wake up
2. Fall out of bed
3. Drag a comb across my head
4. Find my way downstairs
5. Drink a cup
6. Look up and notice I am late
7. Find my coat
8. Grab my hat
9. Make the bus in seconds flat

If you don’t like it, don’t pay for it and use something else?

Yep! Fixed it, thanks.

For those of us who used sync for reddit regularly for years, it’s pretty cheap. But if it doesn’t fit your needs, thankfully you have plenty of other options these days!

Reminds me of the Edith Macefield house, in Ballard (Seattle, WA).

.

If you’re ever in Ballard, I highly recommend the excellent cocktail bar Hazelwood, which pays tribute to her with a namesake cocktail (the Edith Macefield).

I would hope so… If you go to a league that has been won by your club 11 times in a row and don’t win a trophy, something has gone horribly wrong.

A farmer coughs in your face, and then you slowly get sick and eventually die.

I think he’ll play like normal. It would be pretty insane to pass up the Bayern offers and then sit Kane for the year. That would (a) guarantee that he leaves next year, eliminating any small hope that he stays, and (b) mean that you’re getting no value for Kane while also getting none of the reward that you would have gotten by selling him now.

I am guessing it’s in the range of £100-125m. Bayern seem to have overplayed their hand a bit, thinking that Levy would feel the need to sell regardless of price, and coming in with multiple bids under the asking price. I wouldn’t be shocked if they blink and pay up, but it seems like Levy may be content to keep him. If he goes for free next year, it’s a lot of potential revenue lost, but Spurs are in fine financial shape (it’s not a Barca situation). And Levy seems to think that there’s some small chance that he stays & signs a new contract, if the year with Ange goes well and he likes the direction of the team. Seems remote to me unless Spurs win the league or something absurd like that happens.

How am I going to play my favorite game of “will lens show up” now??

I agree that these changes have all been incredibly stupid and devalue one of the few remaining producers of quality TV (HBO), but I think that this is missing the point. The key is this:

Notably, the loss in subscribers didn’t seem to affect streaming revenue. It grew to $2.73 billion this quarter, marking a 13 percent increase.

In other words, fill up the service with cheap / easy to produce reality crap and hike up prices over time. Revenue goes up and costs go way down. People drift away but you keep growing the bottom line, at least for now. The shareholders rejoice and the consumers lose.

I don’t mind it as much, but the wallpaper thing is poorly executed. I have a color photo as my lock screen and a plainish lightly textured background on my home screen. But material you picks colors from the lock screen photo, which I don’t see 99.9% of the time!

Weston McKennie involved throughout the buildup and with the assist! 🇺🇲🤝🇺🇲

This screenshot is from earlier today, but i still get the error on the most recent beta. Was able to buy ad-free though, oddly enough.

I also am trying to purchase Ultra but can’t. Different issue, I think - I am USA based - but I keep getting this error message:

I’m no master tactician, but I feel like they might want to play this new #10 guy a little tighter.

get Dani Alves out of prison

😂😂😂

Yeah - though I had thought that still the one should be higher than the other, even if the numbers are small. In the actual equation, this would be multiplied by a scaling factor of 10000, though. (See the code discussion in the other comments). Though, in this case, the rank would still be very close to zero.

What I had missed is that, in the actual code, the equation is wrapped in floor() and returns an integer. So both are treated as rank = 0 and maybe randomly sorted.

The question is why are rank 0 posts showing up at all? In my other comment, if you do the math, I think that it should take quite a bit of time for any post with an appreciable score to decay to a rank of zero. Yet we see that these sorts of old posts are appearing relatively high in the hot feed.

One possible answer was suggested in another comment – it may have to do with how often the scores are recalculated for older posts, and if some have not decayed to zero by the time that the score recalculation stops, they might persist with a non zero score until the instance is restarted. I’m still not sure that that is the right answer, however, because I am guessing that instances like lemmy.world (which I am using) have been restarted recently with the various hacking attempts?
