I remember they had a blog post about this. A big source of confusion is that Uber already had this feature on their notifications so a lot of people thought this feature existed already. But it turns out Uber had to do a lot of custom work to do it in their app, and now Android has made it an easier and standardized API.

EDIT: https://www.androidauthority.com/android-16-live-notifications-3518375/

If this doesn’t sound like anything new to you, I don’t blame you. After all, rideshare apps like Uber have already been showing notifications like this for years now. Uber had to do a lot of custom stuff to make its notifications look like that on Android, though. Google has basically created a standardized version of what Uber’s been doing. With the new progress-centric notifications in Android 16, any app can create notifications like Uber.

 

26 Mixes for Cash was released in 2003, but this song is from "Never Mind The Distortion" from 1994. I think 26 Mixes for Cash is a really underrated release!

 

A new world record!

He'll be playing in Bingothon on June 15th: https://oengus.io/marathon/bingos25/schedule/schedule#run-46178

13 is the most anyone has done in an hour, and we use the time of the last bingo finish as a tie breaker but this run didn't need that.

He played with some Halloween features enabled (notably, zombies and Mr. H)

So lemmy.ca and piefed.ca have different feeds altogether when I view them, are they two separate things then?

Separate things, just the same admin I guess. You can follow the same communities from either one.

I have a Mastodon account and I haven’t sorted out any way to post on/read lemmy content with it

On Mastodon, follow the account for this community, just Mastodon uses @ instead of ! so it's @[email protected] and you can post to the community by mentioning it

You can paste URLs of Lemmy posts/comments into the search bar of Mastodon to pull it up. Just make sure you use the real URL and not a mirror, so you need to get the URL from Lemmy's Fediverse icon it has on every post/comment

There is not enough people on this site

If you're looking for more content, I would suggest subscribing to more communities: https://lemmyverse.net/communities

I think you misunderstood, ada was suggesting using a different server than lemmy.world in order to spread out the load better

some examples:

https://discuss.online/

https://sh.itjust.works/

https://lemmy.ca/

https://sopuli.xyz/

https://lemmy.zip/

https://aussie.zone/

They're all still Lemmy, just different access points. If you want the "Old" UI, some have it built in like https://old.lemmy.ca/ and https://old.lemmy.zip/

I mean it's not amazing bitrate but it's better than IGN's videos

Freak culture is making its way mainstream, and if I may be so bold, I think a great deal of that is thanks to horror movies. Think of how many normies you watched over the holiday get really into Nosferatu memes, or how even the most Star-Wars-and-Marvel moviegoer you know will tip their hat to a messed-up A24 trailer. But hey, don't take my word for it, listen to one of the most important names in horror today: Jason Blum.

in 2023, Blum sat down with Nerds of Color for an exclusive NYCC interview. Not long into the discussion, interviewer Sophia Soto asked Blum why he, personally, kept returning to that most genre of genres, and his answer was very much about working weird into the wider world.

"I love horror movies," said the Five Nights at Freddy's producer, "Because it’s a way to like, smuggle subversive stories into the mainstream. So often these strange unusual stories are relegated to independent releases and tiny releases, and no one sees them, but horror is a great way to get subversive stories supported and told in the mainstream. That’s why I love horror."

As Popverse's resident goth kid, I'm absolutely biased when I say I completely agree. But my bias aside, think about some of the most lauded stories in recent cinema - The Substance, Get Out, Sinners - they're all unique tales that capture the human experience via blood, guts, and plenty of jumpscares. And speaking of that last point, Blum does go on to say that another reason he keeps coming back to horror is not just the subversive stories, but the immediate reactions he gets from audiences.

"The fun thing of doing horror movies," Blum told his interviewer, "Is you get to hear people’s reaction. You know, you make a drama, they might love it, but you won’t know because the audience doesn’t move. So, with horror and with comedy, you know if the people like the movie or not by how much noise they’re making and that’s very satisfying, when they’re making noise."
