Open Lemmy comment threads in Mastodon?


Since both lemmy and Mastodon use the fediverse, is it possible to view comment threads under posts from lemmy in Mastodon? How to find a link that works in both/ is it related to the posts id?

Would these work with #hashtags ?

@AWUutgQ5inc7fMWpTk.fediverse@lemmy.ml hello, in my experience it is possible and yes, hashtags works. Right know I’m seeing your post and giving an answer from #Akkoma thanks to your hashtag.

In order to find a post (without the # ) you have to follow the community or account you are interest. Links work fine when you share it on Mastodon for example. The only difficult is to find a community because you don’t have the search options that you have in #Lemmy and makes it more easy. But hashtags are great to solve that barrier.

I spent about a decade as a KDE developer.

KDE has this mindset where if someone wants to implement something they think is cool, and the code is clean and mostly bug free, well -- have at it! Ever wonder why there's 300 options for everything?

Usually (because there's a bunch of people trying to optimize the core for speed and load times and such) this also means that the unused code-paths are required to not contribute negatively to things like load times. So a plugin like this that doesn't get loaded by default unless enabled, and thus doesn't harm everyone else's performance. It also means that if it stops working in the future and starts to bitrot, it can be dropped without affecting the core code.

In my entire life (and as context my earliest experiences with a PC predate the first consumer-available apple computer) there has not been a single time where I have felt the phrase "only Apple can achieve" to be worthy of anything other than a snort.

Apple's unshakable confidence that everything they do is earth shattering is overlapping heavily with that mediocre white man saying these days.

Suspect arrested after shooting at Texas Target kills at least three people


A gunman opened fire outside a Target store in Austin, Texas, on Monday, killing at least three people and injuring a fourth. The suspect, who fled the scene in a stolen car, is in police custody according to local officials.

The name of the shooter has not been released, but was identified as a white 32-year-old man with a history of mental health issues, said the Austin police chief, Lisa Davis.

An investigation into what unfolded in the Target parking lot and what may have contributed to this act of violence is still underway. Mental illness by itself is not a predictor of violence and only 5% shooting deaths in the US are committed by people with mental health disabilities, according to research from Columbia University’s Department of Psychiatry.


This occurred less than two miles from me, and everyone on the Austin subreddit is clamoring for a motive.

Wasn't Deadpool a "new avenger" at some point in the comics? And we just started that line with Thunderbolts.

I think they'll play it like X-Men, hell want to join and interact with the team, but won't really be a member. Or maybe they'll try to recruit him? He fits in with the rest of the New Avengers anyways

So he might be in the movie, but I doubt he'll be on the team.


in reply to TheImpressiveX

I actually really enjoyed the original. There was a different angle on heroism in it and it showed downsides to being super right alongside the positives. The infighting also came across as very believable and motivated.

I remember effects getting a bad rap in it, but it never bothered me.

Kind of like Spider-Man, everyone was essentially an extreme version of their best known personality traits. Very one-dimensional, but otherwise really good.

The new one is a lot more subtle about it, which I appreciate. But that's not how superhero movies were back then.

The characters in the new one had personalities?
in reply to TheImpressiveX

I liked 2005 F4. Jessica Alba, Captain America, and Michael Chiklis were all awesome. I don’t remember who was Reed but he must have been forgettable.

Trump announces another 90-day pause on China tariffs


From the surprising-absolutely-no-one dept.:

Donald Trump has once again delayed implementing sweeping tariffs on China, announcing another 90-day pause just hours before the last agreement between the world’s two largest economies was due to expire.

On Monday, Trump signed an executive order extending the deadline for higher tariffs on China until 9 November, officials confirmed to Reuters.

Chinese officials said earlier in the day they hoped the United States would strive for “positive” trade outcomes on Monday, as the 90-day detente reached between the two countries in May was due to expire.

I'd love to see him go through with it. Let's destroy the economy. His followers would love that.

Founders Intent was 1 congressperson per 30,000 people to comprise a district, not 700,000
It would be much harder to gerrymander smaller districts effectively 😁
in reply to Visikde

Probably, but how would the federal government work with 11,600 Representatives in the House?
in reply to delmain

I mean, can Congress function less efficiently than now?
in reply to delmain

The UK manages with 650 members and China with 2977.
in reply to delmain

In the UK, the backbenchers (the nobodies of Parliament) can assert a lot of power. Case in point, the revolving door of Conservative Prime Ministers. All the changes to the Conservative Prime Minister was because of the backbenchers had a lot of power to cause problems. In essence, the Conserative MPs actually did what the Westminister style of government is meant. The Prime Minister is only the Prime Minister cause they have the support of the House.

In theory, more US House Reps would be able to act as the check on the President's powers like Congress is suppose to do. The more reps they are, the harder it would be for the President to entact their agenda. Since there would be people to convince.

Could maybe ad another layer that selects a smaller group from among them.

Trump seizes control of Washington DC police and deploys national guard


in reply to Powderhorn

Last time this happened, the president (of South Korea) was impeached, suspended, arrested, and charged with insurrection.

Look, I can dream, okay?

in reply to TehPers

Trump? Impeached? And convicted?

Bwahahaha ... haha haha ... haHAhaha.




in reply to J

Had to think for a second there, but basically this means that it has grossed more than Brave New World and Thunderbolts* individually.

Companies aiding Trump’s immigration crackdown see ‘extraordinary’ revenues


in reply to greenfire

Entirely predictable.

Every single time that a Republican administration purports to be cracking down on "wasteful spending," you can be sure of two things: that their definition of "wasteful spending" is "any spending that benefits anyone other than ourselves and our cronies and patrons," and that all they're really going to do is shift it so that it exclusively does benefit themselves and their cronies and patrons.

in reply to WatDabney

also beware when they propose to ‘reform’ social security, medicare, medicaid etc—the public always loses from the GOP’s efforts against such programs

in reply to USSBurritoTruck

@startrek The crew size of TOS Enterprise was 430. I’m not sure why they’ve halved that in SNW.
in reply to Michael Gemar

"They really packed them in on these old ships some of the time, but inconsistently and not always."


Jadzia Dax in Trials and Tribble-ations

in reply to Michael Gemar

203 was the crew count given in original pilot, “The Cage”, and the clip where it’s stated was repurposed for “The Menagerie”.

The 430 number was never stated on screen, until the Disco episode, “Brother” where, when Michael Burnham scans the ship she says there are 203 crew aboard, but the display graphic claims 430.

Huh. I have always heard the crew compliment as 430, even when TOS was the only Trek. It appeared on Star Trek.com, but there’s no actual reference there:

web.archive.org/web/2020042610…

in reply to Michael Gemar

Apparently the 430 figure is first uttered by Richard Daystrom in "The Ultimate Computer":

It takes 430 people to man a starship. With this, you don't need anyone. One machine can do all those things they send men out to do now.


This is the figure Roddenberry has settled on in the third edition of "The Star Trek Guide" series Bible, despite the earlier contradiction.

in reply to Value Subtracted

Thanks for clarifying that. It’s odd to me that SNW decided to go back to the earlier figure.
