cultural reviewer and dabbler in stylistic premonitions
By “solar power in operation” (in GW) i think they mean maximum output capacity rather than actual production, since these numbers add up to 923 GW while wikipedia says in 2024 there was 2.13 petawatt-hours (243 GW on average) actually produced by solar.

if that is the case I choose upper-left of the political compass for you (:
i’m curious, where do you place yourself on that compass? if you’ve got 20 minutes I highly recommend this video about it.
as a mod/admin, i would appreciate being able to edit post titles. there have been a fair number of times where i asked a poster to do so, and then waited a while for them to before deleting the post if they don’t.
and/or, it would be nice to have a way for us to temporarily semi-delete a post while waiting for OP to make requested changes to it; that is, to hide it from the community view but leave it visible to people with the URL, or people who find it via the user profiles of the poster or commenters in it.
editing titles would be awkward without an edit history or, at the least, a way to see that some 2nd party had edited it, and editing post bodies would be even more so. but it would make sense and be useful with an edit history, i think.
i would also appreciate having content addressability, portable identity, composable moderation, and… perhaps a pony 😂
and here i does it for free 🤡
imo the pejorative connotation of that word, and homophobia generally, is ultimately rooted in misogyny
The project has been associated with an increase in the number and aggressiveness of black bears in town, including entering homes, mauling people, and eating pets. A single, definitive cause for the abnormal behavior of the bears has not been proven, but it may be due to libertarian residents who refuse to buy and use bear-resistant containers, who do not dispose of waste materials (such as feces) safely, or who deliberately put out food to attract the bears to their own yards, but do not feel any responsibility for how their behavior affects their neighbors.

props to OP for still writing a first-person title for this post as if it is their own, despite it being a repost from at least a year ago 😂
(it is a good meme imo)
there is some interesting discussion of the problem and possible solutions (including links to github issues) in this blog post: https://popcar.bearblog.dev/lemmy-needs-to-fix-its-community-separation-problem/
I think it’s healthy for the fediverse to have similar communities on different instances, because if we centralize, it basically becomes reddit, which means moderation and censorship are at the whims of whoever owns the only place people go.

I like their proposed solution #3, but it is somewhat hampered by the DNS-centric model of ActivityPub. I hope that one day something like this proof-of-concept of making AP content-addresable (which i found via this post about “How decentralized is Bluesky really?”) will be widely adopted and make instances less important.
But even without such a major change as moving to content addressability, that blog’s proposed solution #3 (simply letting communities “follow” other communities) would let readers pick which moderation they like without posters needing to manually cross post to reach everyone: If communities A and B could mutually follow eachother, posts would by default appear on both but could be independently removed from either. 🤔
I tried giving them some other species

would you recommend that book for learning regular expressions as a non CS guy?
Absolutely, it’s an excellent book which I highly recommend.
The latest edition (3rd) is almost 20 years old, but I don’t think regex has actually changed substantially since then so it should still be very useful. (I read the 2nd edition cover-to-cover and enjoyed it enough that I bought the 3rd when it was released 😀)
If you’re going to buy a physical copy from amazon you should use the author’s link here to give him slightly more money for it. But if you just want a PDF I see one is available here.
