Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Greetings all, how are you people. I am still battling the bed bugs, now I reduced their population by at least 90 percent, this is my 5th week in fighting these bastards.

DE and Bio-D works well in tandem, now I looking at buying steam cleaner as last resort.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nice. Did you sleep the same bed everyday? That's gonna be excruciating

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes. My bed is the most heavily fortified with diacotemecous earth, underneath looks like Siberia and sprayed daily. I also inspect the seams every 3-4 days to make sure no bugs hiding. I change the sheets every week too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In the end it sounds like worth it. Exterminator business is going down after Mark Rober's video lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

The DE takes time though, in my case, the dried up dead bugs only show up after 10 days. Some people claimed 48 hours. I dunno how they can get that kind of results so soon.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Had a flea problem once. Vacuumed then applied a liberal amount of dog parasite (Frontline) spray to and around the bed. These sprays target a wide range of bugs.

only have just figured out the "All" tab brings posts from other instances into this one

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, but only the ones that have federated with us.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

yea understand that part. been making alts on other instances and finding this out makes things easier

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I had a huge coding grind outside of work for the past few days and now both my brain and body are paying the price 🌚

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

just wondering, is it the lemmy bot?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (8 children)

Yep, honestly I had no idea what I was cooking for the past two weeks lmao and it's just testing and fixing and testing and fixing 🤣

At least now I have experience on writing new applications and configuring stuff on the go, because I don't have that kind of opportunity at my job.

Check out my company anniversary gift 🎁.

How's the audio quality? I'm still wired gang because I'm a rhythm gamer (and former fps gamer) but untangling wires all the time has driven my crazy lol. I'm eyeing a new pair of iems that I really like but they're wired only as well.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You wanna try it yourself? If you're keen, hit me up on Discord. I'm still using wired too, but I must say not having to deal with the tangled wire is fun.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Oh, I'd love to try it if we're meeting up during one of the future board game sessions. But the price is out of my affordable range haha T_T

damn a rm1000 price. how's the quality compared to the sony wf1000xm4? assuming you have these.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Actually I've never tried the WF1000XM4, this you gotta ask @Yong and amon from the Malaysian reddit. Apparently audio wise, it does lose out to WF1000XM4, but I really like it for its fit, I tried doing jumping jacks with this and it didn't budge. This one is also meant for video calls.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i see. well i'm waiting on the wf1000xm5 anyways. will look around more once its officially released i guess

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, I thought it's out already. I was wondering why I couldn't find it at Sony Lalaport just now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Watched Guardians of the galaxy vol 3 today.

Idk . It sparks this marvel fire that died down ever since no way home to me. Pretty fkin good.

Hooked from start to mid to halfway end. The fight at the end kinda zoned me out a bit. Standard fight I'd say. Just fan service fight. Nothing unique.

Spoiler?

How do you text format spoilers on Lemmy? Couldn't figure this thing out

Urgh, i'm beat. Works seems to be harsh lately, or i'm getting weak uhuk

Anyway i found out the best way to browse "All" is to sort by "Top Day" and the interesting thing will float up. I've been using "New" and "Hot" and it doesn't feels right, this one feels just like home.

Massacre at Tripod The Web hosting company over the weekend axes hundreds of fan-created pages, as well as anti-Malaysian government protest sites.

search for something else, did not expect to see that

Would a classifieds section be good for monyet.cc? Like for buying/selling or services offered?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Yep, we have plan to do that in the future but if you inclined to create and maintain one, please do.

Do keep in mind though, because the content for classified is easier to generate, we might see an influx of ads post all across the front page, which isn't good for anyone, including the fediverse(we might get mail from other instance to take action or get defederated). So it's better to have ground rule attached, and specify what sort of post is allowed.

Better yet if you went through all the submission, or have a scheduled post that refresh every few days.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A daily/weekly classifieds thread?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yep. Or a few days.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oooh, that's interesting to know. Thanks!

If you look at some of the communities here, you will notice that there are a lot of other ciplak communities here lol.

Just create one

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

From what 🦀 said, after thinking about it, I probably should wait until the software matures - either with improvements of front-page algorithm, or ability to minimize a community's exposure to the whole fediverse. I can definitely see moderation being a huge commitment if at least those two things aren't implemented yet. I'm not a big fan of creating threads due to limited searchability among other issues. I'll sit on this one and deliberate further. 🤔💭

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

haha, i just went ahead and created a car community. It will never be popular, but i can still do within my powers to promote it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

There's nothing more delightful (I'm not even being sarcastic) to find one of the first messages waiting for you upon waking up is more fedi drama. It's like fandom_wank has returned in my life except more serious because it involves actual nazis
