Same. The fediverse brought me here!

Do you think your partner looks better with makeup? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

To me she looks the best when she just woke up. All messy and wild. How nature intended her to be.

Setting of a the positive feedback loop of love:

  1. You're happy because she's happy
  2. She's happy because you're happy

Name showing in log in? (mander.xyz)
 

Small question: I am on Debian and use Gnome. I'm the only user on this laptop.

Is it possible to hide my username from the log in screen? So that only the password field shows?

The point is, my login name is my first name, and I don't like it ...

  1. ... when people in public transport can see my first name when I log in
  2. ...that if I lose my laptop, the people who find it can easily know my first name

I realize I could also simply pick a username that is not my first name, but it would save me a lot of reconfiguration if I could simply hide the name from the login screen.

This is not a science meme.

I just want to take a moment to thank @fossilesque@mander.xyz for providing us with so much quality content.

Really improves my day!

Capitalism is not just echange of goods and services for monetary reward. Its also the separation of labour from the means of production, the ensuing necessity of labour to sell their labour for a wage, and their ability to spend that wage freely at an open market.

Is Bluesky (going to be) as community-run as Mastodon? (mander.xyz)
 

Reading this article, and especially the end ...

CEO Jay Graber told The Verge that the plan is to hand over control of the AT protocol to a web standards body like the Internet Engineering Task Force.

... it almost sounds as if Bluesky is (going to be) as community-run as Mastodon.

But I'm suspicious. What is the catch?
