Maybe cross pollination? Many people have geraniums in the area and the bees likely carry the pollen everywhere
I also heard as a child that if a red geranium petal falls on the soil of a white geranium it can tint their flowers. But that sounds like a urban legend to me!
Both are grandchildren of a totally white geranium, children of a slightly red tinted one. Sprouted via seeds from their parents fruits. I think they are gorgeous! ![](https://lemmy.sdf.org/pictrs/image/e6d8a7b9-5fa4-4037-9285-46c91eaf431f.png)

Excellent memories! I used PC Globe so much when I was in elementary school. I didn't have an encyclopedia, and when some friend handed me that diskette it opened a new world to me. I ran that software so much that I memorized the world map, with capitals and population orders of magnitude.
My geography teacher was so impressed, they didn't know how a small kid could have memorized the world. I even knew some anthems by playing them on the PC Speaker. Over time we all got Encarta, then Wikipedia, but for a brief amount of time, a floppy disk contained the world for many of us.

Since the Digg migration, when was that, 2010?
Since Reddit's APIcalypse the content of that site has gone to the drain. It is very clear that power users are no longer posting quality content. I am much more amused by Lemmy than Reddit nowadays, though it's true that it has that new car smell and the communities will keep growing and reforming from the Reddit ashes.
I don't think Reddit will disappear, but it's not the same site it was two months ago, that's a fact.

I discovered MBR a couple years ago and my first impression was, "is this... electronic metal?". And turns out it is. Love them.

Like most people I stopped using libraries in the early 2000s with the advent of the internet. And up until recently I still used to buy or download books I wanted to read. But I've rediscovered local libraries and they're awesome. Since almost nobody uses them they have increased lending limits and most books are always available. You can basically enter the library with a box and fill it with books to take home and read. They now recognize me at the front desk and it's awesome.

Shows go by fads. The 2010s decade was crazy about zombies. Now it's all about retro.

As a user, I have 100% interest! I still use old.reddit and it's peak UI design. The feature I miss the most in Lemmy is "show images" to expand all thumbnails. Hopefully it can be deployed at SDF.

I actually used beos as a daily driver for a few months. This was maybe around 2000 or 2001. WinME crashed a lot for me and I couldn’t make linux detect my winmodem. Installed beos and everything was great. Dual booted with windows 98 when I wanted to play StarCraft.
Moved to Linux soon after but I will always remember those great days.

I agree with this interpretation too and it is an excellent simile.
If sdf defederates from big instances I will accept their decision but I will find another server.

I hope it doesn't. There is always time to defederate if something is going on.

I agree that it can be problematic to see some weird stuff on All
, but defederating is a red button that affects everybody in the instance, and I don't like that. I enjoy seeing new stuff, and people can use the "block" button liberally.
However it is true that Lemmy still lacks some fine grained controls for users. I am positive that they will be implemented soon, so meanwhile we are living in this very early transition period where random shit can and will appear on our All
page and we need to live with it (or use block a lot)

Quite a lot more, I’d say there is 2x to 3x more. And more importantly it feels complete. The movie seems like it needed a sequel and that sequel is in the manga.
If you liked the movie you’ll love the manga, guaranteed
