We’ve finished the karipap kentang that inbought. Still good.
Just F.Y.I, we have Mandarin communities set up. Do participate if you would like to converse in Mandarin for a bit.
English is my main language tbh, I only use Chinese when I’m with friends who mainly speak Chinese.

I wasted my entire blood donation because I didn’t eat enough beforehand and the nurse had to stop the donation halfway through. Felt like a total idiot and embarrassment in front of everyone who donated without a hitch
@DerpyPoint
Don’t worry, there’s always next time!Damn, I couldn’t imagine if I were you
I would have cried on the spot

It’s fine, my dude, can always go back and try again next time. But the thought of you trying to help is better than anyone so keep it up👍

@unhedged ah yes, and famously written during his addiction years too - it feels so personal because it was :(
deleted by creator
@unhedged ya, a lot of people speculate (i think he also confirmed a bit), a lot of The Shining was him working out how he could see he was also being a destructive force on his family. I think the fact was picked up by Kubrick, but his rendition of that, King famously hated.

@unhedged Alamak, it was auto-tagged on my end (as the creator of the thread). And lol, you’re basically saying conventional wisdom about his output tbh. The sober era one i like most is really his non-fiction On Writing.
deleted by creator
@unhedged these days I’m in too much trying to catch up on nonfiction and longreads, so fiction dah lama not read anything current. That I even read King is a surprise because I’m a chicken with horror.
My choices quite common I think: Terry Pratchett for sure, but he’s really a guy whose worldview really became nuanced the longer he went on that it’s almost a crime to say start with the early books in discworld, but they’re good to set the stage and also to see how the world developed (it’s a very loose series so you can really dive in and out). The other one is CS Forester - he does the Horatio Hornblower books and it’s really the worldview of a white British man who came of age before the British empire ended so it can be very rah-rah. But in the 1930s he’s got a good gig writing for Hollywood so his novels really go very fast - the Crichton of his time lol. I want to get into contemporary science fiction but i get really impatient with what they think is important and what i think (lol) but that said, Ted Chiang and his short stories are sooooo berhantu - his high-concept stories always stick in my head.
Quite today…
Sleepy :<
Same bro, same.
Same… But I don’t want to sleep anyway :(
Why tho, sleep so nice :x
My body needs sleep and it’d be nice to sleep but there’s so many other things I want to do haha, including writing the bot
Aiya, take your time with the bot, there’s no rushing for us to have one :x
need to recharge yourself too
I’m doing it because I like it haha, I actually like coding a lot. Just that I hate my job because of management
Same huhu, it’s the job that makes you hate working
Quiet everyday huhu

Morning folks.
Morning 🌞
Morning
Hihi. Not using my Leddit username here but going back and forth for now.
Thanks! Interesting to see stats on just about everything, but not user cumulative upvotes since it’s less relevant here. Or I haven’t found it yet.
Nope I don’t think there is such feature here, as far as I know
Damn, back and forth huh? 👀
Playing both sides, as they say 😏
Hey, welcome! Do take a tour around this place!
My butt and back hurt ( ಥ_ಥ)
Dem you, job
So… You’re butthurt?
Lol. Sorry.Heh nice one

Time for a spa day
Oof, i wish i can go for one
Or a massage? Had one the other day, and they cracked my back walaoweh felt like i was sent to heaven. (Courtesy of my cousin who paid for it 😂)
Haha, i have to overcome my fear of letting people touchy touchy me if i ever wanna get one 🙈
Lost my wired earphones, gonna need to buy new earphones now. Cheek feeling hot talking on the phone for almost 50 mins. I miss the old sony 30 ringgit earphones. Think theyve discontinued it uhuk
Double-checking for you guys on Lemmy: you can also see who upvoted right? It federates into a like on the microblog side.
I don’t think we can see who upvote and downvote tho, else i’d love to see who’s the serial downvoter lol if it happened here
Would love to know if this is true! I’d be surprised if they chose to expose this data vs just sending a feed of anonymised vote deltas.
@dcx @Annoyed_Crabby lol i think because kbin was written as being both link aggregation like Lemmy but also microblogging like Mastodon, Calckey, Akkoma etc. And before Reddit, the expectation must be because the main audience will be bloggers who’ll be visiting from federated spaces (chewah cam star trek). So upvote maps to likes; boosts is reblogs; downvotes go nowhere (since blogging platforms don’t have these).
It’s memang quite interpretative dance la - Calckey (and all the *keys) can give emoji reacts but it just shows up as likes on my Masto fork.
That’s why I thought i better bring it up. It semi looks like Reddit but backend lain sikit.
Anyway… I can see… But idk if adding a photo will add load so here’s the direct link of this comm on kbin.social: https://kbin.social/m/cafe@monyet.cc/t/77005/c-cafe-daily-chat-thread-for-23-June-2023#entry-comment-342733
Each comment has a More - then select Activity ok kesian runs away like Discord before the Trojan War
Huh, interesting. So that’s mean cannot see downvote over there as well.
whelp, now i cannot secretly upvote people now
@Annoyed_Crabby oh no, downvote also I can see, being a kbin user. It’s the other microblog protocols that won’t register anything. (if you feel nak lepas geram, this may be useful info, if you’re adding any fedi accounts to your timeline/stream/subscription view (I assume you guys have this)
Wait, so it’s specific to kbin users?
And… Uh actually I’m not sure how to map these in my mind…
Lemmy only user could not have these features, however kbin user who happens to be a lemmy user could have these feature…
Tbh, it’s kinda confusing a bit
@YourClarke hahaha don’t worry. I’ve really only been on Fedi since Nov 22 and kbin at the same time as you guys set up this Lemmy instance. I think the redditors will get the hang of it, certainly faster than Twitterjaya (I’m in perma-eyeroll mode since you guys arrived, because those are my gang. I’m even here cos someone made a big fuss about Elon. Guess where they are at now? Twitter ppl are babies. Mastodon as a platform was at least a few years old and they whined so much. Boo hoo have to pick instance, dunno who to talk to, feed so empty blablabla. But look at you guys! Most of the two major protocols are still held together by string lmao and you make it work.)
The main thing about Fedi protocols is that janji we can roughly talk to each other. Some functionalities across the microblogs pun not shared (I’ve only mentioned a couple), but it’s doable, we make it work. Since joining my to-read tabs blew up and there’s less Main Character discourse. So it’s been a real nice change. But i was missing Malaysia content and community A LOT (hence my eyeroll at Twitterjaya). The current kbin state of things pun (like how when I’m logged on my kbin.social account i can see who upvoted) is probably because of what i explained above but also it’s not even three months old. Lmao the dev is just some Polish kid. Lemmy is much older but a lot of ppl avoided because the main instance and devs are full-on tankies. The Reddit wave made it moot since you can always 1) make your instance; 2) fork the programme if tak puas hati with those devs and maintain your own codebase.
In any case for your example you get Lemmy features when your account is on an instance running Lemmy and kbin when otherwise but not both at the same time. Takpe, it’s not gonna be too hard. And besides monyet.cc is set up, so at least you know how to hang out here. And from here, if you’re signed in as monyet.cc accounts, you absolutely can find other comms such as kbin ones too. Can one can one :)
For example, I can’t crosspost when sending articles over here because kbin doesn’t have it yet. So I’m also still a bit handicapped. Hahaha
Thanks! I think I could faham a bit. At least I got the rough picture already
Btw, about Twitter… All this while, I have only used Reddit je since the past few years. I tried taking a look at Twitter before and well…the Twitterjaya felt so ‘ganas’. I don’t mean the literal violence haha but idk something about their replies and threads screams aggressiveness. And they seemed easy to get angry by things?
Hahaha I’ll just stay in this Lemmy/Reddit pool, apparently.
Boo hoo have to pick instance
tbf this is definitely a major cause of analysis paralysis. otoh when monyet.cc sprung up I immediately knew which one to sign up to. it gave me confidence to take the plunge.
Nice, good to know! Will be very useful in the future
Thanks!
Damn I would need more time to get used to these haha
Ooh… that’s weird. Good to know, thanks. I’ll add something to the Switching to Lemmy guide
Betrayed by autocorrect, i wanted to say ok sekian lmao
Very nice to expose serial downvoter and expel them. Ohh btw, is there any way you can check what’s up with the huge discrepancy between registered user vs user-per-month? There’s like 1533 inactive user for no apparent reason. Bot? Sleeper?
Oh! Just to add to that though, our stats are probably actually much larger than are reflected on those stats.
- There’s this thing called the 90-9-1 rule - 90-99% of users lurk. I’ve found this to hold true on r/my and elsewhere.
- Especially on Lemmy where they have to create an account to even upvote - whereas most lurkers on reddit are probably registered.
- Lemmy doesn’t seem to report pageview count
- Someone told me they switched over so they could get their news feed back
- So I suspect we may have as many as 3-5k daily active users, but just like on reddit, they lurk
If you’re a lurker reading this, please do consider creating an account! There’s no email address required. It’s motivating for us to see higher signup numbers :)
deleted by creator
Oh yeah I looked into that.
- Users-per-month is only the count of users who created lemmy accounts on monyet.cc.
- Registered users includes users who have visited from federated sites. I’m not sure what triggers the “registration” - I suspect just viewing one of our subs is enough, since we aren’t seeing any major volume of upvotes or subscriptions
- For our first day we also had a problem with someone running a bot account creation script. I added a captcha and it went away. At some point I’ll probably purge these. (Not sure how many)
You can see the federated users in per-community subscription counts btw, e.g. !cafe is in the 80+ users.
Ahh i see. From what i learned, i think visiting from another sub mean their account will be “registered” under the server, maybe to create cache or something. That’s my hypothesis anyway ahaha
