That was a really nice laptop back in the day. I wonder if you can get the battery pack rebuilt?

Nobara Linux. Fedora's better looking younger brother.

I'd say the main difference is Lemmy has been around for 4 years and Kbin is only a few weeks old.

Another article is claiming it's up to 44 million....

"Instagram could be a primary driver of Threads’ adoption. This is due to a badge assigned underneath your Instagram profile picture with a number. This number denotes your user number on Threads. These are thought to be chronological, with Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg holding the coveted “1” badge.

Dexerto has observed that the user numbers have now surpassed 44 million at the time of writing, and it’s likely that as more regions find that the app has launched, this number will continue to rise."

If SAG strikes, just about every scripted production worldwide will shut down, not just the ones WGA is able to picket. Shows that are in post-production will continue finishing, but at some point the pipeline of new films will run dry and even post will have to pause for a while. There are some that actually think that a SAG-AFTRA strike will actually speed things along, since the studios can't completely kill off production or they will suffer a shortage of content during future quarters.

There is also a thought that with July 1st brings the possibility of the start of force majeure, where studios can legally exit contracts for shows they no longer want to carry. Some people think that's what they have been waiting for and once the shows they wanted to get rid of are cancelled they'll come back to the negotiating table. But there are others who say that's just a rumor.

I think a lot of people have been weary of the current 20 year run of corporate social media, but didn't know where else to go. Now they do.

Really like it here. Love the interface and lots of good posts already!
