Yeah, Artemis is an app for Kbin that is in a very limited beta right now (I’m not in it) - *edit got the link wrong the first time **and the second time. Artemis

Yeah… it is a little overwhelming when just dipping your toes. In the initial push to get off of reddit I ended up with a lot of accounts… Beehaw, sh.itjust.works, fedia.io, kbin.social, readit.buzz, infosec.exchange, infosec.town, defcon.social, tildes, squabbles, etc. At some point you just have to use something.

If I had to guess what I’ll be doing in the future, I’d say it will resemble reddit where I had multiple accounts for different purposes but not different platforms, just different content filters and topics. Eventually there will be at least one app that works with both Lemmy and Kbin accounts and make it all more or less seemless and arbitrary.

Right now I’m primarily using Kbin and Beehaw, I don’t know which account will eventually be more important to me. I’m also using Ice Cubes for Mastodon with a couple different Mastodon accounts. What would push me all-in on a kbin instance would be if I federation between Lemmy instances and mastodon instances reached a level of functioning that didn’t feel like I was missing anything. I’d rather not have a million different apps and accounts just to see different versions of the same shit.

I’m on both (repeatedly, multiple servers and accounts) but even with Memmy I find myself gravitating towards Kbin and once Artemis is out I’ll probably stay there. Beehaw has the best interaction on its local communities, but Kbin is just a better feed for me mostly. No brand or server loyalty for me, I will continue using all until one seems to address all my wants.

It used to make sense, like… people that need no provocation to go into something they won’t shut up about, or things like that. Lately it has just stopped being used in any way that actually makes the “Nobody:” part matter.

I’m not a republican or climate denier or anything and I’m a big proponent of environmental causes, like to an extent that might be annoying for many… but there just isn’t good enough data for me to stop preferring to cook with gas.

Elevated levels of benzene higher than those of second hand smoke do not indicate that it’s anywhere near the same level of cancer-causing as cigarette smoke - it sounds like cherry-picking.

To run a gas stove you need great ventilation in your kitchen, there hasn’t been some insane risk of cancer from cooking in commercial kitchens or well-ventilated home kitchens with gas stoves that I’m aware of. I’d be willing to bet that increased incidence of asthma would also be the result of improper ventilation as well.

I currently have an electric stove and I hate it after having gas stoves for years. Will be going back to gas ASAP.

That said everybody has their own preferences and risk-tolerances and can do whatever they want, it’s just going to take more data for me to be willing to get an induction stove when it comes time to upgrade instead of a gas one. Electric cook tops just objectively suck.

This was why I fell off with math in high school and never got my mojo back. My mental math skills were above average but once discipline and showing work and “proofs” (especially proofs) came into play I was out

Not trying to start a fight with any citizens of Europe - just always funny how people have this idea that the USA is the only corrupt western government and are so shocked to see that it’s kinda the same everywhere.

USA has been treated by Europeans (probably mostly just US Citizens that WISH they were european actually) as though they respect their citizens and civil rights to some fairy tail degree

It’s like… no bitch they just have better healthcare and are friendlier to bicyclists, these European countries are just as shitty about almost everything else.
