“It’s a beautiful thing that for the first time in history you can see a saint dressed in jeans, sneakers, and a sweatshirt. That’s a great message,” Father Carlos Acácio Gonçalves Ferreira, the shrine’s rector, said at the time. A Franciscan monk based at the tomb, noted that “many young people” were visiting.

Now get rid of the homophobia, sex abuse scandals, sexism, and anti-choice bullshit, mmkay?

What's wrong with the stock lemmy-ui, aside from it being not actively worked on right now? in c/[email protected]

  1. It's buggy. Submitting a post sometimes takes half a second, and sometimes it takes 30 seconds. Logs show a plethora of errors. The Docker container will eventually crash and restart. It's all part of the Lemmy instance admin experience.

  2. No options to collapse/customize side panels.

  3. UI doesn't refresh after saving settings.

  4. Settings aren't sticky from page to page on occasion.

If I could code I'd pitch in and help. Heck, I'd learn, but the documentation is pretty sparse.

I fixed the Apple Magic Mouse 2! in c/[email protected]

You're correct, I skipped over the Mighty Mouse. Those scroll balls were the original fidget toy.

I fixed the Apple Magic Mouse 2! in c/[email protected]
[–] oleorun 16 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yes, that replaced the low-riding, AA-powered Magic Mouse that had the delightful battery door that ripped off chunks of fingernail when attempting to open. THAT mouse replaced the stupid, short-corded, anti-ergonomic hockey puck mouse, which in turn replaced the single-buttoned Apple Bus Mouse 2, which arguably is the last best mouse Apple made.

"Hey, let's hire Jony to do design! But don't let him ANYWHERE near the mice department, k?" -Jobs, probably.

Someone please help me process this. in c/[email protected]

It's designed to keep the prongs from collapsing or extending during manufacturing and shipping.
