There are a few solid ones there. Photon and Blorp are my personal favourites on desktop

appreciate it :)

I think we just notice it more because we have less content, so you’re more likely to hear about each bit of drama that comes up and you’re more likely to know one of the parties involved. There was lots of drama on reddit too, but I didn’t subscribe to the communities that talked about it and I often didn’t know enough about each incident to judge anyone

It’s still annoying though 🫤

If you have a community center nearby, you can see if they have gym equipment. Those memberships should be simple to get and cancel.

It seems like these articles came out after the huggingface ones

Sounds like they got caught trying to steal from huggingface, and are now trying to market off of it

I found this whole comment thread to be a waste of time, here:

For anyone that wants it, you can use GeoShare to interconvert between different map/location service links. When I tapped the Google maps link in this post, it opened in GeoShare and I could use the map app of my choice.

And if that’s too complicated of a comparison for them: “Don’t complain about Canadian smoke until you deal with American smoke”

This article came out yesterday: https://www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/article/us-wildfires-responsible-for-much-of-the-smoke-in-bc-region-officials/

“As wildfire activity increases, so has smoke across many areas of the region. Much of this smoke is originating from fires south of the Canada-U.S. border and will have varying impacts over the coming days,” an update Saturday evening said.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford was asked Friday about the growing number of American criticisms of wildfire management. In response, he alluded to Canada’s contributions to fighting U.S. fires, including those that ripped through California last year.

“Maybe what you should do, rather than complain, is send support, send help, because we have done the exact same thing for our American friends, and that’s what you’re supposed to do,” he said.

Just days before Trump’s post, 56-year-old Canadian pilot Nicholas Dale was killed while fighting a forest fire in Colorado.

I want to see Canadian countermeasures aimed specifically at the Republican regions that made comments like this.

I don’t love the toggle, but some of the other components are fun, like the slider.

On the right type of site, these components could be a lot of fun

I would have expected people to be more angry at the US’s actions than Argentina’s.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Trump–FIFA_red_card_controversy

During the 2026 World Cup, FIFA suspended the implementation of a one-game suspension that United States men’s national soccer team player Folarin Balogun had received after he was sent off in a round of 32 match victory against the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team for a foul on Tarik Muharemović. Balogun’s suspension was delayed for a probationary period of one year under the Article 27 authority of the FIFA Disciplinary Code. United States president Donald Trump had directly called FIFA president Gianni Infantino asking him to review the red card decision. The decision allowed Balogun to participate in the United States’ Round of 16 match against Belgium despite the red card remaining in effect. Belgium won the match 4–1, with Balogun playing almost the entire match

Another controversy, similar to when the events were hosted in Russia and Qatar, involves host countries immigration policies. The controversy during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, United States immigration and visa policies under the second Trump administration, which have affected players, officials, journalists, and fans from several qualified nations. A travel ban affecting citizens of 39 countries—including World Cup participants Haiti, Iran, Ivory Coast, and Senegal—has prevented most ordinary fans from those countries from obtaining visas to attend matches in the United States, though exemptions were granted for athletes, coaches, and essential support staff, as well as dual citizens, permanent residents, and valid visa holders. A separate visa bond program initially required fans from five African nations to pay deposits of up to $15,000, a requirement that was temporarily suspended in May 2026 for ticketed fans. Iraqi striker Aymen Hussein was detained for seven hours upon arrival at O’Hare International Airport, while Somali referee Omar Artan was denied entry and was unable to officiate at the tournament.

Wow, it’s so full and colourful :)

Nice job everyone!

I think that works, from a distance it still looks like two separate things

Hmm, I’m not sure what colour would work best on the top of the left side. I’ll start on the other flags in the meantime, what do you prefer?

Oh nice, many cursors make light work 😄

Someone added a cool 3D effect to our flag, so I thought I’d add it to the other large flags too. I hope that’s ok, I am happy to revert it :)

It’s hard to do a maple leaf at a small scale 😄

@Undearius@lemmy.ca did a design in a previous year, and it might be fun to build on that:

This is what it looked like at the end in 2024:

Once people have an idea of what we want to do, we can add it to the CoTemplate. If we decide to relocate from our current location (as our current spot is quite small), the lemmy.nz area looks nice right now :)

The cotemplate site has a button near the top where you can copy the image link, and then paste it in the template field on Canvas (be sure to set the x and y offsets to 0). Then everyone knows exactly where to place pixels (or not 🪿)

This was a cool read, if anyone wants incentive to read it, here is the key bit

The highly advanced nervous system of octopuses is a good example here, displaying levels of intelligence and capabilities far beyond those of other cephalopods and matching that of primates, despite no evolutionary link here. Exactly how octopuses developed this rather unique capability remained a mystery, though recent research by [Rishav Mitra] points at the rather unique ribosomes in these animals.

Ribosomes are the molecular machinery at the core of each cell that enable the synthesis of proteins. Due to their highly crucial role, they tend to remain evolutionary unchanged, which makes the big change observed in the octopus (i.e. order Octopoda) in the form of this H88 rRNA break quite remarkable.

The pixel art is very clean, nice job :)

A lot of bad ones out there, but some are worse than others. For example, I’m not going to consider a Samsung TV because of how many times they’ve done something sketchy

LG is also falling down the list with this incident

I’m not sure to be honest, I think it might be to show up on search engine results. If that is the case, maybe there is a way to disincentivize them from doing that
