I hope Baudelaire orphans are still recognizable, despite it being a mishmash of various canonical designs and also some of my ideas I've been drawing for about a year and I seem to be improving

I'm not very good at art yet, only learning for a year, and only doing digital art for about a month. But "Pomni in a basin" is a russian meme that my friends (and my partner specifically) liked a lot, so I wanted to draw it

This godforsaken country is introducing the bill that allows to strip people of birth-given russian citizenship for some things - like desertion and *discreditation of army* (which happens every time you question war) So, my question, if someone loses all citizenship, what happens next? Is their life basically over? Is there a way to re-gain citizenship (like, in another country)? Can they be deported?

Btw, bigotry does not need to be conscious or intentional or malicious to be real and cause harm, and you can be transphobic even when you're not trying to or believe you're are not

I don't really understand why people do it. Not like "they're doing it because they are depressed and feel bad", I had depression myself but never had a call to injure myself. I hate pain, and doing something painful to myself while I'm already feeling bad doesn't really sound appealing. So I don't quite get what self-harm gives people so they keep doing it. Like, is it a way to "ground" yourself and stop dissociating, or is it "just to feel anything at all", or as a "punishment", or something else?

When I was on reddit, "Hot" sorting (of both main page and subreddits) usually was more than enough to see ones that are new *and* popular at the same time This doesn't happen on Lemmy. Both "Hot" and "Active" seem to be biased towards old upvoted posts over new ones a bit too much, for me first page is always full of 3-4 day old posts I know there's "Hide read posts" setting, but I don't think it's a good solution. First, it seems like you have to *interact* with post in some way for it to be considered read, be it open it or upvote it, you can't just "haha meme funny" or "this post is not interesting to me" and scroll past it. Also, I still would like to see read posts, so I could see if there's some new conversation going, or if I want to see it again for some reason (like maybe I came up with a witty joke to make in thread six hours after reading it) So, what sorting do you use, and does it solve the problem for you - if it is a problem for you in the first place?

Programming ShaggyDemiurge • 1 year ago • 100%

Hi! So, I have a serious problem with tab hoarding. And now I want to write a browser extension - a bookmark manager. I've already attempted it once, and even got to MVP, but then didn't really use resulting program, was a bit too clunky, and also I realized that this is not the solution to the problem. Now, few months later, after reevaluating my approach and also finding an *imperfect* solution that actually works (using Toby as my bookmark manager and closing about 400 chrome tabs), I now have an itch to try again. In a nutshell, it's a bookmark manager (i.e. having good categorization, unlike read-it-later apps like Pocket) oriented on read-it-later functionality (i.e. having a separate read-it-later list, quick saving and quick deletion of tabs from either main library or read-it-later list, unlike most bookmark managers) For context, I am senior android developer with 7 years of experience, specializing on Kotlin (so that's why I'm searching for kotlin-based solutions, like Kotlin/JS and ktor), but my webdev experience is limited by last time I attempted this, and a half-year class in my uni almost ten years ago. And now I have ideas of doing this as a self-hosted app, to avoid limitations of both IndexedDB, and Kotlin/JS, and also to allow sharing bookmarks between browsers (and, if hosted online, between computers). But I haven't done stuff like this before (had no need), and only approximately understand things like Docker and stuff. But I'm a quick learner. So, after some (pretty shallow) research, I got an approximate idea how it would work: 1. Extension written in Kotlin/JS, using Compose for Web + Kobweb Silk (adds containers like Row/Column and Modifier) - *That's the part I'm familiar with, I've already learned from zero how it works last time* 2. Ktor server that handles business logic - *Never needed ktor in android development yet, so a new area for me* 3. Parse-platform server - *Never worked with it either, but looks useful* Not quite sure if I *really* need three layers, or if I should just use a database and access it with sql queries. Or maybe the other way round, to move business logic to extension, and access parse server from it So, I'd like some feedback on how dumb am I, if this even a good idea, how should I fix flaws with my plan, or is it fractally dumb, and I should quit programming altogether for coming up with ideas like that without even doing proper research?

I.e. stop receiving notifications when someone posts in thread? I can imagine it will get annoying if you just share a (not OC) meme and it gets popular, but you're not really interested in comments to it?

Just thought that as a first thing I do on lemmy I should do the thing I did on old r/196, the thing I do best - posting my selfies to fish for attention and validation :3
