Wikipedia is only a good source on non controversial topics

There’s research showing that controversial topics ultimately get better Wikipedia articles, because they get more attention, and because editors more strongly feel the need to get good quality sources.

Cute!

Only steers and bears?

Well, if it’s a black bear, shouting and waving your arms will normally chase it off.

Or how bad something is. “I don’t need a scientific study to tell me that looking at my phone before bed will make me sleep badly”, but the studies actually show that the effect is statistically robust but small.

In the same way, studies like this can make the distinction between different levels of advice and warning.

Who cares what video format it was on?

I joined a month ago, and I like Lemmy much much more than Reddit. The federation makes it visible that you’re part of a large community, there’s no advertising, and I find the discussion to be of a generally higher quality. I also like that one can see upvotes and downvotes. Not sure whether it needs to be fuzzified or embargoed to fight abuse in future, but either way, it’s nice.

I’m absolutely sold on Lemmy vs Reddit. I dumped Twitter when Musk took over, and by then I was already on Mastodon, but I don’t actually use it much. Didn’t use Twitter much either. Any comments on Mastodon vs Bluesky?

Username is relevant?

Holy clickbait title, Batman!

I’ve installed Lawnchair and I’m quite happy with it.

Yep. I recently bought a used Pixel 8 and wanted to install a new launcher - my googling turned up Nova launcher, but the app said it had ads, so I looked a bit further and installed Lawnchair instead. Does the job!

Ah, OK!

Das Mädchen seht am See und es sieht ihn.

The girl stands at the lake and it sees him.

In German, a lake is masculine and all diminutives are neuter, and that includes Mädchen (girl), which is a diminutive of the obsolete word “Magd” (a cognate of “maid”).

Second hand ThinkPads are absolutely brilliant value.
