Problem being that someone else asked the question 10 years ago and the answer is now irrelevant due to version changes. People with high scores are just early adopters who answered all of the easy questions. Hostile users generally can't understand the question. The issue with llms answering your question is that they are going to be stuck in the current time period. In the future their answers will also be irrelevant due to version changes.

A community for selling and reselling items. !flipping@lemmy.world (lemmy.world)
 

!flipping@lemmy.world

Discuss and learn how to sell items on marketplaces such as eBay, Craigslist, Mercari, and many more.

You don't have to be a full time reseller, learn and resell your own personal items for someone else to enjoy.

Nearly 5 years in, PS5 sales remain neck-and-neck with PS4 | VGC in c/games@lemmy.world

A used ps4 is probably the best value in gaming right now. For ~$200 you can get the console and a bunch of games.

I initially thought you were talking about a washing machine and this was.

A lot of accidents happen at home vs work because you're not mandated to follow safety rules. Everyone, please stay safe and wear your ppe at home and work. It only takes a few seconds to make sure what you're doing is safe. Op, I'm glad you still have all your fingers.

I found that my communities stayed on track better when I made robust rules and offered alternatives where content would be a better fit.

There's a 25-year-old piece of PC hardware that's still being used in even the most powerful gaming PCs sold today. Happy birthday to USB 2.0 in c/hardware@programming.dev

Almost every smartphone usb port is 2.0 as well. USB C is just a connector folks.

Is it a thing in the US to eat other spreads than peanut butter such as (crunchy) chocolate spread on bread? in c/AskUSA@discuss.online
[–] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

We have something called apple butter, which is a very dark thick applesauce spread.

Edit: you call it applestroop

They look good. Take a look at the rules on !dullsers@dullsters.net I have had fewer issues since I reccomended other communities for topics not appropriate for the community.

I created an instance for a specific community (lemmy.world)
 

I created !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world a few months ago and then started seeing contraversies around moderation policies and federation that just don't apply to the type of content on dull mens club so I decided to make an instance solely to host that community.

!dullsters@dullsters.net

I'm not sure if this has happened yet, but I like the idea of having a neutral instance that users can still visit regardless of what happens. There's no user signups, only admin/moderator accounts. Users have to use an account from a federated instance.

I created !dullsters@dullsters.net (lemmy.world)
 

I created the popular !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world several months ago.

In the interest of decentralization, I decided to create an independent instance.

!dullsters@dullsters.net

The dull mens club community will stay active, but please visit us at the new one.

!dullsters@dullsters.net has been created. (lemmy.world)
 

The community voted on Wjrii@lemmy.world suggestion of

!dullsters@dullsters.net

The current community here on world will stay open. I have no plans of shutting it down unless the community decides it should.

Thank you all again for creating such a wondetful place,I look forward to seeing the community continue to grow.

I created a Lemmy instance and the future of this community. (lemmy.world)
 

I've created a new Lemmy instance at dullsters.net

When I created this community several months ago I had no aspirations of it becoming much of anything. In a short amount of time it has grown to over 1500 subscribers and is one of the top recommended non-political communities. I am always looking forward to the posts that are shared here, and the unique culture being developed.

I see the importance of the decentralized aspect of the Fediverse. We frequently see drama surrounding moderation and federation policies. None of that applies to the content in this community.

I have no qualms with admins running their site the way they want to and they are often placed in difficult positions. However, this is one of the true places of neutrality on the Fediverse and it should remain that way.

In the few months this community has existed there have been maybe a half dozen moderation actions taken. You have remained, for the most part, very dull, and I thank you for that.

The name of the community should be changed, I hadn't realized that dull men's club was the result of someone else's ideas and work. The new name should represent this community that you all have created and the place it exists, The Fediverse.

The new instance won't have any users except for the purpose of moderation, you will still use your account from a federated instance. I'm still ironing out a few wrinkles with the site, it should be done whenever I get around to it.

In the meantime suggestions for the new name should be made in a top level comment so that they can be voted on.

Thank you all once again for making this community what it is.

The dullest day is upon us. (lemmy.world)
 

Tomorrow (Saturday) will be the December Solstice. The "shortest" day in the northern hemisphere and "longest" day in the southern hemisphere. Although it will be the day with the least amount of light for many of you, it means that each day after will be brighter. For others each day will be shorter, and thus duller. For places near the equator the change will be negligible throughout the year. Of course if you live near either of Earth's poles you will need to wait a few months to see the change.

I wish you all a very dull and uneventful day.

I always park next to vehicles that are the same model as mine if I can. (lemmy.world)
 

I just like to make other people think there's something maybe a little exciting going on, like an enthusiast meetup or maybe a glitch in the matrix. It gives me a little chuckle.
