Does it work offline now?

I follow ya, I have trouble writing these questions to thread the needle between too broad and too narrow. Too broad and understandably, I get responses correctly calling it out as you have, yet too narrow and it doesn't produce the conversation and different responses I'm interested in seeing.

There are a lot of ways to interpret this question, it really depends on the information and the people.

This is intentional. When I post to this AskLemmy community I try to frame my questions to fit its description:

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

I fall back to more specific questions here when I can't find a relevant, active community to post to (or forget to look for one).

I was meaning any kind of information wherein clarity may be valued, so political information is a valid kind to consider for sure!

While I'm aware of Contact, and know it relates to people, do you really agree with that premise? Isn't the inconsistency in employed units of measure sufficient to indicate otherwise?

Thanks! I'll have to give it a look.

They only trust what the hear and see on social media.

Is there any data yet that backs this thinking?

I think posters/flyers are one of the most powerful ways to reach people in a local area, you’ve got to be in the local area to see them, right?

For sure in terms of locality, but not sure how effective they are in areas with lower foot traffic due to infrastructure. In a city this may work well, but does it also work as well in more rural, spread-out areas?

Follow-up: has anyone coming across this post started a local group, or helped with one starting out that could relate how they went about it?

Ask yourself: Why did Donald Trump win. And think about it. The answer is right before you and blazingly far more obvious than any particular action that was within Democrats or Kamala's control.

What do you personally think the reason was?

Also, tangled knots happen in space. What kind of space can time get tangled within?

Now that's another fun question! It also makes me wonder, how would space behave in tangly time?

Would the space in which time gets tangled be primarily around extreme phenomena like black holes, or the very beginnings of the universe (or a universe, if one wants to get into multiverse angles)?

True! It is intentionally insufficiently defined to inspire and encourage imaginative replies!

 

For any range of topics, lighthearted to serious, hobbies and games to helping and engaging with community matters. Regarding reach, I mean what ways may be used alongside word of mouth, as I honestly don't hear people talk about groups they're in (besides sports/bands) all that much.

 

Original, clunky form of the question:

What gameplay settings/options that some game genres don't often have would make you more apt to play them?

 

By which I mean in terms of usage, development, or stability. Also along those lines, which English-speaking instances would you recommend?

Interested as Misskey & forks have some feature edges over Mastodon in my opinion, but it's somewhat harder to find discussion/info about them.

By tools I mean anything from alternate frontends to add-ons/extensions for browsers or anything else. By features I mean any built-in features the service may provide to give you some degree of customization or control over your experience, e.g. lists/blocking/keyword filtering/etc.

Thanks in advance!

 

Seems likely big businesses would be obvious targets for tons of unwanted phone calls, so how do they deal with this?

Also open to recommendations for similar diagnostic software for other data storage media like SSDs, flash drives, and SD cards. Just wanted to keep the title short and specific. If you're making recommendations for tools for the other types of media, please mention that.

Thanks in advance!
