Does Lemmy have a way to get inactive mods removed and replaced?

Messaging the admins of the community's home instance is generally the recommended approach.

threelonmusketeers ,

Any NSFW settings within the app which might be blocking them?

Was it not here yet? What changed?

Edit: Ah. Better drilling techniques, ironically, pioneered by the fossil fuel industry!

Latimer and his colleagues improved on traditional geothermal techniques in several ways. But the biggest was this: They utilized horizontal drilling, boring about 10,000 feet down and then 5,000 feet to the side with each well. The technology has been around for decades, but it’s gotten a lot less expensive since the mid-2000s due to widespread adoption by oil and gas companies.

Nice that this drilling technology can be used in green energy applications too.

threelonmusketeers OP ,

Anyone have any ideas on how to increase the particle size of the copper oxalate precipitate?

threelonmusketeers ,

Sounds cool. Could this be used to improve push notifications from Lemmy apps?

Currently, the highest Q value obtained from a tokamak is 1.53

I'm pretty sure this is the value of Q achieved by the National Ignition Facility, which uses inertial confinement, not a tokamak. As far as I know, the record Q for a tokamak is still only 0.67, set by the Joint European Torus back in 1997.

Feature Request: Option to change image download location

I've been using this app for a few months and really enjoy it, but I haven't been able to find a way to change the default download folder for images and videos. Is there an option for this that im missing? I use the same folder for most other apps and this one being separate is a minor inconvenience.

threelonmusketeers ,

Related but slightly more ambitious request. It would also be cool if we could also change the app install location to external storage (micro SD card).

From the title, I assumed that the algae would be burned as a carbon-neutral biofuel, but it's more interesting than that. They seem to be trying to tap into the electron transport chain to produce electricity directly.

"Moderation tools are nonexistent on here. It also eats up storage like crazy [...] The software is downright frustrating to work with" - Can any other instance admins relate to this?

After a year online the free speech-focused instance 'Burggit' is shutting down. Among other motivations, the admins point to grievances with the Lemmy software as one of the main reasons for shutting down the instance. In a first post asking about migrating to Sharkey, one of the admins states:...

also kbin.run and kbin.earth

They're asking about mbin, not kbin, no?

threelonmusketeers ,

Ah, thanks. Even if it is a bit confusing, it's cool that they were able to switch out the underlying software without breaking everything. I guess it helps that mbin is a fork of kbin.

Slightly off topic, but I've found the YouTube mobile website viewed in Firefox to be superior to the YouTube app.

America alone has something like 3.5 BILLION people in it

Wait, did they do something bad? I thought they were just a prolific poster of memes.

Never buy .xyz

I just wanted to post this here because I want to help you all and hurt gen.xyz as much as possible. I had a .xyz domain through njal.la which I used to host jellyfin, homeassistant, and other basic things for friends and family. My domain recently became inaccessible without any notice. After a while of troubleshooting, I found...

As is everyone born between 1965 and 2015, which is quite a few people.

IIRC, the German Redditors drew a better Canadian flag than the Canadian Redditors did. I'm glad that the Canadians on the fediverse seem to be organized a bit better.

I was confused on what they were trying to accomplish, and even after reading the article I am still somewhat confused.

Instead, when a user posts something, the algorithm automatically reads the content and tags it with relevant interests so it shows up on those pages. Users can turn up the serendipity slider to branch out beyond their stated interests, and the algorithm running the platform connects users with related interests.

Perhaps I'm a minority, but I don't see myself getting much utility out of this. I already know what my interests are, and don't have much interest in growing them algorithmically. If a topic is really interesting, I'll eventually find out about it via an actual human.

threelonmusketeers ,

I was also not aware of this. If the Lemmy software can do this, doesn't that mean there should be a way for apps and web interfaces to do this automatically?

threelonmusketeers ,

I'm use Lemmy Link by fcuks, but it seems to work only for whole sublemmies, not posts. Is there a browser extension which works for posts as well?

threelonmusketeers ,

Happy birthday!

Any updates on !canvas? Last year was small, but super fun!

threelonmusketeers ,

Are they the Visgoths or the Ostrogoths? Do they live in the west or the east? :)

threelonmusketeers ,

Wow, it's amazing that this works! I wonder what they do with the original blood. Can they put any of it back in after?

Following the other post, which lemmy.ml communities don't have alternatives on other instances?

Following the other thread (550 upvotes and 366 comments at the moment: https://lemmy.world/post/16211417), one of the complaints that people had what that some communities only exist on lemmy.ml and don't have alternatives on other instances....

threelonmusketeers ,

Yeah, Blaze definitely deserves some kind of "threadiverse citizen's volunteer of the year" award or something.

threelonmusketeers ,

Single admin instances are fragile instances. One person is a single point of failure.

threelonmusketeers ,

Not if the instance has a backup admin who can take over hosting, domain, etc, which most large instances do. Very small instances usually have a poor bus factor.

threelonmusketeers , (edited )

!crows

Possible alternatives?

@BonesOfTheMoon (prolific poster) and @Mechanismatic (mod)

Thoughts?

threelonmusketeers ,

!selfdrivingcars and !selfdrivingvehicles

The respective moderators (@amalshaji, @element) have been AWOL for 4 years.

Possible alternative:

Any instance recommendations?

@sabreW4K3, were you able to find any RSS news sources?

threelonmusketeers , (edited )

!freecad, currently moderated by @zksmk @zksmk @zksmk.

Could not find any current alternatives.

Any instance recommendations? Maybe programming.dev? Or a maker/craft-oriented instance?

threelonmusketeers ,

!classical_music (@erpicht)

Possible alternative:

threelonmusketeers ,

!fusionenergy and !fusion

Mods: @CHEFKOCH and @zksmk @zksmk @zksmk

Could not find any current alternatives.

Any instance recommendations? Maybe mander.xyz? (@sal)

threelonmusketeers ,

Thanks! It seems like a bunch of us have our cake days around this time... what an interesting coincidence! :)

threelonmusketeers OP ,

Obligatory "Better Help bad" comment.

Great video otherwise, though.

threelonmusketeers OP ,

I've never used them either, but they've come under fire recently regarding underqualified counsellors and privacy concerns: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BetterHelp#Criticism
