I guess all the cows in the paddock right next to them were immune?

What noise? I was in a rural area taking this photo of one and even then, this close you had to listen carefully to hear anything: https://ibb.co/rmQRmyZ

Morons. I saw some on the weekend and drove as close as I could get to them to check it out. I was within getting messed up range if a blade came off and I could barely even hear it. This was rural with zero background noise as well. It’s almost like the complainers have never seen one in person.

Here is a pic of how close I was: https://ibb.co/rmQRmyZ

If a lemmy server is completely wiped, then installed from scratch again without the existing database, how does that work with existing remotely posted comments and federation? in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

Yeah, I have a feeling that this is the case with my server. It does seem to be communities that I was already subscribed to having issues subscribing again.

Dead instance checker may be overzealous. in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

Is there a process to undead an instance? I'm just saying that as I wiped my server a few weeks ago and created a new lemmy server from scratch with the same domain/details etc... I'm posting from it now so it kind of works I guess but will I be missing anything?

Just asking as I did exactly that and it kind of seems like it works? I would have thought there would have been some kind of checksum/key etc...

The only issue I'm really running into is that it says subscribe pending on some communities when I try to subscribe but I'm assuming that's due to being overloaded etc...

Is there anything major that I'm overlooking?

Note: The server is personal so hijacking existing usernames isn't an issue but I'm assuming it would be if it was populated?

The year of Linux on the desktop is closer. Linux reaches 3% of desktops in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I have on servers as I run my own lemmy server. I do like Linux desktop but macOS just works for my work and home laptop.

What movie scared you shitless when you were a child? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Critters or Ghoulies? Never watched the latter but the vhs tape cover had one coming out of the toilet:

My dad got me a poster of mogwai after watching the movie and attached it on the ceiling directly above my bed. Sure, he was the friendly one but fuck that shit! 10/10 dad humour.

In its defence, many scared stoners were also casualties of that movie.

I don't want to call out sick today. I want to call out healthy. in c/antiwork@lemmy.fmhy.ml

I call that a mental health day. Aka, my brain doesn’t want to work and have fun instead.

What password manager do you recommend? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[–] FunkyClown@lemmy.fail 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I’m using it since doing the opposite and it works great on iOS. Not sure if it was different a while ago but you can set it as your auto fill password manager.
