I never read the books, so I don't know, but the cartoon was fantastic

There was a cartoon

I'm from the Y'all zone. Is it offensive to call trans people y'all? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Literally the entire rest of the sentence is the problematic part. "We don't take kindly to you", it doesn't matter if they say "y'all", "you all", "you people", "your kind", take your pick, it's not the problem with the sentence

Nope, "y'all" is still not the problematic part

Live Linux distro list? (lemmy.ca)
 

Does anybody know of a list of usb live-bootable distros, with links to the download pages?

I have a coworker who wants to switch his gaming computer over to Linux, he has Linux experience but from like a decade ago.

He's not partial to any particular distro, so I was hoping to just put together a multiboot flash drive with a bunch of live images he could try. But I'm not sure what I should include, and what has live images, vs. install only images.

I'm most comfortable in an environment with apt, so Debian and Mint are of course already covered, but if the gaming-specific distros have live usb images, that would probably be the best thing for him to try.

[Request] Long press on links to open them externally (lemmy.ca)
 

When reading a web page within Connect, it would be nice if long-pressing on links in the webpage would give a popup with the option to open the link in an external browser (and probably also an option to just copy the link). I frequently find myself linked to Wikipedia from a Lemmy comment, and then want to open other links from that wiki page, so then I have to open the page I'm on externally and refind my spot in the article.

Having the same options when long-pressing a link in a comment/post would be nice as well.

[Request] Seperate block lists for seperate accounts (lemmy.ca)

Edit: there's already a setting for it, another user pointed it out. Ignore me :)

~~Currently, when you block an instance or community, it's blocked app-wide. I had blocked various NSFW communities and instances on my main account so that they don't show up in my All feed, but now I can't access them from my NSFW account unless I use a different app to do so, or repeatedly unblock and reblock them as needed.~~

~~Can we instead make block lists on a per-account basis (or have the option of account-associated or global blocking)?~~

How can I change the text colour in my comment box? (lemmy.ca)
 

The text when I try to type comments (but not the text in the search bar or, as I'm just now learning, here in the 'post body' text box) is white, and I can't find the setting to change it. Obviously I could change my background back to the default blue that it was, but that's the opposite of a solution.

Anybody know?
