Unfortunately 24 hour libraries, or even late night, are pretty much non-existent now because 1) parents use them as babysitters and 2) nothing against homeless people but librarians aren’t equipped or staffed to take care of them appropriately.

And now with the book bans librarians are in short supply too, which means shorter hours and even fully closing on some weekdays.

Support your local library, everyone! See if there’s a “friends of” group. It’s a great way to connect with your community.

God bless Firefox reader mode.

Good VPNs have adblockers.

Everyone on the Internet should have one now. Also a password generator.

Thanks for your response! If you light events with broadcast cameras, I am the annoying video engineer behind the camera controls asking about flicker and color balance. I hope they keep making y’all’s specialty bulbs. Looks like there’s a big list of exceptions!

I wonder if this will have any effect on the film industry…

Agreed. Hopefully it’s just a temporary reaction because of all the skepticism floating about.

One of my required classes in college had a day where the professor just talked about all the times porn determined the newest media distribution standards.

Wow… I’m new here so I’m still learning how all this works but I tried to apply to beehaw at first and they were having severe issues with their approval system so I either got denied or, most likely, got stuck in application purgatory.

Honestly, with how Lemmy is set up, it seems like it makes more sense to cater your instance to a more niche crowd than “all nice people” like beehaw was attempting to do.
