Musk insisted backyard tomatoes weren’t as good as those you can buy from the store, but people still do it anyway.

Spoken like a man who has never grown tomatoes at home.

I hated tomatoes until I ate a home grown Black Krim sandwich. Now there's the added benefit that I know it's not covered in salmonella or diarrhea parasites.

    I could barely get my 78 year old mother in law to use Linux for web email after theming it like Windows.

    How the heck am I going to get her to understand getting her roku to be VPN into my house for jellyfin when we're 1000+ miles away and trying to troubleshoot over her home phone?

    (She doesn't even have a cell phone - for pictures she digs out her 20 year old digital camera, snaps a few pics, uploads them to her laptop, attaches them to an email, and only then do I get to see what she's seeing.)

    You're all wrong. We open on the Nevada desert and the president grabs Oppenheimer by the shoulders shaking him vigorously saying, "BUT WHAT ABOUT HYDROGEN!!"

    Smash cut to the Bikini Atoll, the hydrogen bomb going off, and a pan over to Einstein (played by Bruce Campbell in a wig) saying in a very thick German accent, "Oh boy, here we go again!"

    80s guitar riff starts and OPPENHEIMER 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO comes across the screen in neon yellow and pink.

    Hi folks,

    I was using Lemmy for the better part of two years and thought I'd come over to piefed and see what's up. A few things puzzled me and I'm hoping this is the best place to ask.

    1. It seems all top level comments are locked for replies - is that a server thing? A federation thing?
    2. Scrolling through All, the content just... stops. I'm using the Boost client (maybe that's why?). I get it if I'm sorting by top hour - there's only so much posted per hour. But it's the same for Hot, Scaled, Active, etc.

    Edit: looks like both of these are issues with the Boost client. Switching to Summit on Android resolves both.

    Thanks for the help!
