If art is subjective, why did schools enforce the idea that there's "right" and "wrong" ways to interpret literature? (kbin.social)
 

I'm not talking about objective things like grammar, vocabulary, or structuring. I'm mostly talking about more subjective things like theme and mood. I get for younger students, since they need to learn to analyze and interpret literature. But for higher level students this might become more or a problem, especially when reading old poems and scripts. Why do schools make it seem like there's only 1 right way to view a story?

Do you actually put olives on top of your sandwiches? (kbin.social)
 

When you look at a cartoon illustration of a sandwich, you will usually an olive or other similar topping on top of the sandwich. Have you actually put olives on top of your sandwiches? If so, why?

I mean I think anyone could do this, so it really isn't that unique.

So I was messing with the CSS for my own magazine, and I've somehow managed to bricked it. When you try to go to /m/internet_funeral, you'll see nothing. I've tried to change it back, but I can't access anything.

IDK when this will be fixed (or even if it's reversible), but I just wanna warm anyone who changed the CSS of your magazine, as you can brick your magazine if you mess it too much. Hopefully @ernest can quickly fix this, since this is a pretty dangerous bug.

I'll gladly be the sacrificial lamb for everyone else.

EDIT: Thank you @llama for the fix.

Try opening the inspection panel in your browser and disabling CSS, you should be able to do this in both chrome and Firefox. This should be able to at least get you back to the page where you can edit the css and fix it.

I'm still gonna keep this post up in case someone else has this problem.

Hey, I'll try to handle the abandoned magazines / transfers as quickly as possible. However, I need to automate this process because there are too many requests. in c/[email protected]

@ernest Hello. After your done with this process, have you considered making a magazine called /m/kbinRequests where people can apply to takeover abandoned magazines? Thank you for your work.

Why is bass sometimes the loudest? (kbin.social)
 

So you know when it's quiet and your neighbor is playing loud music, but you can only hear the bass? Why is it like that?

What Reddit features do you *not* want kbin to have? in c/[email protected]

I get wanting to donate to the server. I personally find them annoying and think it encourages people to troll to bait awards.

Awards. I just think they're unnecessary for an internet forum.

Where did the logo for kbin come from? (kbin.social)
 

I'm trying to find where the logo for kbin came from, but I found nothing. Did @ernest make it himself? Was it commissioned? I'm curious.

Also does anyone have a high res version of the logo? I couldn't find any high res version of the logo.

[SUGGESTION] Make magazine icons 600x600 instead of 600x500 (kbin.social)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Minor complaint, but I think that magazine icons should be in a square format like 600x600 instead of the current maximum size of 600x500. By having the icons in a square, it would make the magazine icons look natural instead of the squashed images we see currently.

EXAMPLE

EDIT: I just noticed that this also applies to image previews too.

Moderate by lottery? in c/[email protected]

How would this solve anything? This would most likely get people to spam account creations for mod then trash the magazines. Just having a magazine dedicated to requesting mod access to magazines would be a better system.

Yo #linux. I was thinking of switching to Linux sometime soon, but I have to use #Adobe products for my job. How would you use Adobe software on Linux? Do you use a Windows VM or is there a special program to use Adobe products on Linux? If so, how easy is it to set up?

This magazine is not the place to ask question about kbin. Use /m/kbinmeta instead.
