everything runs on Valve time.

Shit, I guess we were lucky to get SteamOS 3 then!

Then it’s a shit hobby, or the wrong time in your life for that particular hobby. Hobbies aren’t meant to be financially sound investments, and the best hobbies aren’t cheap.

Best idea I’ve seen so far is to comply - and let the nsfw posts just keep on coming. Show the advertisers how their ads are being shown next to nsfw, and see how that goes.

So piracy is a civil crime, not a criminal one? Awww 😩 All this time I thought I was cooler than I really am. (Sad arrr noises)

Lol I remember trying to get my parents to get an ISDN line installed back in ‘95 or ‘96 - the price was ridiculous. I was stuck on 56k until 2001 when I went to work for an ISP and was able to get a 1.5M SDSL line and was fucking ecstatic. Used it to run a CS1.6 server from my closet.

Edit: actually I did have a 1.5/128 ADSL line somewhere in there for a little bit.

Lol, man I remember in ‘99 having a stack of 100Mb Zip disks, using the college’s computer lab to do all my downloading on their T1 then walking my goods back to my dorm room. I’d load up a queue in the morning, then swing back by in the afternoon after classes. Such simpler times.

Statute of limitations??

Shit, I used to run a WWIV 4.23 BBS back in the day. First modem was 9600 baud. Then 14.4k, 28.8k, and lastly 56k - screaming fast! Nothing like watching boobie pics loading one line at a time…

Edit: I remember signing up with Prodigy and participating in my very first AMA, with Quark and Dax from DS9. Good times.

So let me get this straight… people aren’t upset that these automated plate readers are even a thing to begin with, but that they’re being used to prosecute crimes that they don’t agree with?

“The peasants are revolting!

I do believe that is the implied threat, yes.

 

My jaw dropped when I saw these lol.

 

FYI. If you uncheck “Show read posts” from your profile settings, it also hides posts you’ve made from your account profile.

 

“I see you’re going on a looong journey! I see you’re going…. to Rome!

“But I am in Rome!”

“Do I lie?”

Edit/Update: Searching by !community@instance fails, searching by the full url works.

Original post: So if my understanding is correct, a Lemmy instance won’t be aware of a community on another instance until the first time it is searched from your home instance.

If that understanding is correct, then the process does not seem to be working from sh.itjust.works.

Examples:

[email protected]

[email protected]

[email protected]

To try and get these communities visible from sh.itjust.works, I’m entering the search term as shown above into the Communties search field and smashing Search a few times. Normally there would be no results, but if you then search for just the community name it shows up as being connected - that’s no longer happening.

If I am misunderstanding or doing something wrong please let me know.

Edit: Searching for the entire url seems to work sometimes

Example: https://forum.rhombik.com/c/3d_printing - no joy

https://lemmy.world/c/makerstuff - worked!

https://kbin.social/m/3DPrinting - worked!

Edit: it appears the problem with [email protected] is on their side - found a post where they were misconfigured and only federating with two other instances, and have ddos shields up.

Has anybody figured out a workaround or fix for this?

The behavior I’m describing is when sorting by All > anything (top, hot, whatever) you get a feed. Great! I start scrolling and then the page jumps. Then jumps again. And again and again and again… it makes trying to actually preview or click anything a nightmare. Scrolling back to the top of the page shows why - a ton of new posts from across the Fediverse are up there! But I’m not sorting by New, so what gives?

 

Models from printables.com

Both printed at 0.1 layer height on Bambu X1C. Roadrunner printed almost entirely with silk, Wile E Coyote printed mostly from matte, with the flames being silk, and the cart, ropes, fuse, and matchstick being wood.
