jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are people here pro-conscription?78·2 months agoI am against conscripts.
We must always be highly critical of those with power, money, and influence; especially governments and politicians (and the oligarchs that control/sway them).
I have known about those videos being posted on twitter.
I shared some of them last year, it is great that people are escaping the echo cambers we created for ourselves!
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Moderators banning/censoring people arent oppressors violating your rights; they are customer service representatives curating a space for their intended customers. All this to say, I see you Karen.02·4 months agoIn his own words:
Independent, Unencumbered Analysis and Investigative Reporting, Captive to No Dogma or Faction.
He criticizes the duopoly and the oligarchy, but I know those loyal to the duopoly tend to become tribal if people don’t outright support one side and hate the other.
Glenn has proven himself as a journalist with his reporting of Edward Snowden and much more.
He does not fall into simplistic political groups, so I understand the frustration some political factions have with people like him.
Which people do you recommend if Glenn Greenwald does not meet your standards?

Like all websites, there are fake ones and then there are official ones.
Many will be clones of what the original website looked like.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are there any "famous" Lemmy users?01·9 months agoThere is a good amount on Lemmy that I have seen.
If you are active enough, you will start to see user names you recognize across major communities, as well as posts.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why are so many people so fixated on Lemmy's growth?01·9 months agoThey are used to the short-term goals of stonks.
The more people there are, the more popular it is with the working class. Instead of being a niche community, you can meet non-tech people that know about Lemmy.
Lemmy is good as is; slow growth is better, IMO.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is your preferred Democratic presidential candidate, and why?01·9 months agoThe duopoly choice is Bernie Sanders, even though he betrayed his movement and the people that helped fund and grow his grassroots campaign.
A non-duopoly choice is a 3rd Party candidate, Jill Stien, Green Party.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which existing Lemmy communities do you wish were more active?01·9 months agoToo many to list!

As long as one person is active in the community, it still lives for another day.

Is there a way to check it by software? But it behaves as it used to, when the old ambilight was working.
It would be dead (no lights or anything) if you fried it; I have fried a good amount on my end when I was doing projects with them, hahaha.
I’ll be on hold until you get the chance to watch and read the video and article; it should be able to help you figure out if you are missing some of the basics.
I soldered everything according to some instructions on the webz.
Did you test your equipment before soldering it together? Then after soldering it does not work?
I also provide enough electricity for the strips via a 12v charger. When I power them on (no matter if the arduino is turned on or not), they just blink randomly. Only a few led on the 4 strips I connected (to make corners for my monitor).
Is it three wires you are connecting: 5V power, +data (PD5), then ground connection on the strip?
The data input from pin 5 on my arduino is completely ignored when it is turned on. So I think it’s a wiring problem. But I don’t see the issue.
By this you mean that no V is seen or it is acting like it is not connected, it is binary so it has the neccasary V or it does not (0V or 5V).
On the picture you see the input connections i soldered. The strips are just connected together by wires. Ground to ground, data to data, power to power.
…is there something broken? I only have replacement led strips, but I don’t know why the arduino or the power supply should be broken
You need to make sure you did not fry the arduino.
Quick search I found this short video with great information:

jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s happening with my cactus?01·10 months agoedit: maybe->may be
Awesome find!
You may [be] the expert diagnostician we were looking for, the cactus horticulturist!
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s happening with my cactus?01·10 months agoWhat species or type of cacti is it?
Did you change when you water, move locations, or anything that may have an impact on its health?
Not too sure either, but the more info the better.
Then more research to be done, so as to figure possible conditions ot causes!
We need House M.D., an expert diagnostician… but in this case a cactus doctor, cactus horticulturist.

Happens to the best of us, all is good!
I make sure to check out other social media, for information and to check viral news and much more, so not too bad of a confession, hahaha

jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you recognise any usernames on Lemmy?01·10 months agoAwesome!
It is way better when it is a song we like!
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you recognise any usernames on Lemmy?01·10 months agoYou are correct!
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you recognise any usernames on Lemmy?01·10 months agoYes, I see a good amount; I also try to interact with them as well!
I have a few admirers; they make sure to share their opinion on some of my posts; making sure I am not lonely, how thoughtful!
It is always a great time when you recognize some peeps, and then there are some that are just ‘Passin’ Me By’[1]…
[1] The Pharcyde - Passin’ Me By
By forcing your citizens to die for profit?
These endless wars will continue, since money has to be made, and corporations and oligarchs have a lot of sway when it comes to foreign policy.
The next war my country’s oligarchs and corporations are pushing for is with Iran and China; the duopoly is owned and funded by these corporations and oligarchs.
