Agreed. I tried to avoid using virt-manager for my vm’s.. I get that it is more powerful from terminal, but man is it a lot of information to learn how to communicate.

With all of the instances having different URL's, what's the best way to "google" a question and get Lemmy instance answers? in c/meta@lemm.ee

What? lol. Have you tried searching for something and sifting through the sea of garbage blog content on the internet?

For example, I could search "best blender reddit" and browse tons of threads and gather advice. Is there an equivalent we can do in the future with Lemmy/Kbin?

Anybody else think it’s kind of a self-dig that we’re referred to as lemmings? (lemm.ee)
 

I think it’s kind of funny, not sure if it was intended that way. Aren’t lemmings known for following each other, even if it is clearly not the right thing to do?

YSK: How to Think Critically in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

Separation of emotion is a big part of it! Being able to set aside your personal opinion, and work back to the elementary ideas that drive more complex issues is a skill that a lot of people struggle with.

YSK: if you think taking an ambulance to an Emergency Room because you think it'll get you seen sooner. DON'T! in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

Also.. In the US a lot of people don’t want to call an ambulance because of the cost, BUT it doesn’t cost anything for them to show up and assess whether you need to go in an ambulance or not. So if you are in a potentially life threatening situation, you should call 911. They can show up, potentially save your life, and then have a friend transport you.
