I learned my lesson from the early days of covid. Buy that good stuff i bulk as a habit, not as an emergency reaction.

I'm like 80% sure they were being sarcastic in that comment. I hope so anyways.

Biden went somewhere on this?

Judge strikes down Georgia ban on abortions, allowing them to resume beyond 6 weeks into pregnancy in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] plz1@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Both of those scenarios still leave a conservative majority. Unless a Dem Senate pulls a McConnell on new nominations.

Well yeah, that’s technically their purpose.

Abortion pills will be controlled substances in Louisiana soon. Doctors have concerns in c/news@lemmy.world

States legalizing it are doing so because the federal government is basically turning a blind eye to the supremacy clause on that topic (for the most part). States always have the right to be more restrictive than the federal government, but when they try to make laws less restrictive, it's technically not on solid legal ground. That said, laws only matter when they are either enforced, or blindly followed.

I guess that means the US will send another $10B "self defense" aid package, again. Sigh.

They'll appeal anyways, all the way to SCOTUS. It's part of their overall strategy.

If it can feed back to the grid, it can be a safety issue for electrical workers. Having them know about this stuff before they mess with lines is the safe way to do it.

Apparently "held accountable" is "got secret amounts of cash".

Any way to change background color of CarPlay's "Now Playing" view? (lemmy.world)
 

For me, it's a light grey color and the text is white, even when CarPlay is set to always use dark mode. This is hard for me to read, but I can't find any way to change this. I'd rather just have an actual dark background when in dark mode.

Request: Make it faster to switch accounts (lemmy.world)
 

For folks using multiple accounts, it feels a bit buried to go from content in one to the other. It would be nice if the number of taps to go between different accounts was reduced by a few.

"Mark read on scroll" doesn't work reliably (lemmy.world)
 

I don’t know if this is the app, instance issues, or both, but I’ve found this feature to not work well

Feature request: Swipe through image posts in feed (lemmy.world)
 

I think it would be cool to be able to swipe left/right when viewing an image post from the feed or in a community and be able to go from post to post like a slideshow.

[Bug] Swipe left to reply in Inbox just marks comment "read" and hides it (lemmy.world)
 

Reproduced in latest release today. When I swipe left on a comment in Inbox to reply to it, it just hides it. If I go to the All view and re-swipe left, it'll open the reply dialog. So it appears to only be a bug if you have the view set to Unread.

Feature request: Better color contrast for voting buttons (lemmy.world)
 

In dark mode, when viewing the voting buttons, could we get higher-contrast coloring when a post is voted on? The upvote coloring is nearly impossible for me to distinguish from the default un-voted color (light blue vs. grey). I'm using the darkly theme, but darkly red has the same challenge. Using browser extensions to override this is only an option for desktop-only usage.

Sincerely, a visually-challenged Reddit refugee.
