Well sure, but the fediverse is nowhere near that ubiquitous.

I wouldn't attribute malice for... not using the same protocol others are? And the unnecessary work is posting on Bluesky too instead of just the fediverse?

Twitter was never part of the fediverse, so moving to Bluesky, even though it's not on the same protocol, is still a step in the right direction. They're not taking anything away from the fediverse... Well, they might be taking some users away because they've hit the critical mass of userbase to let people see what they want to see instead of the one-size-fits-all Linux Star Trek Leftism blend we've got over here, but people who are tired of that would be leaving Lemmy eventually anyways.

Not sure if your information is outdated or if you're using a different definition of federate, but this blog post says they have support for a degree of federation: https://bsky.social/about/blog/02-22-2024-open-social-web

Linux machines don't crash unexpectedly, because if they do, it's your fault for configuring it wrong and you should have expected it.

As for dealing with other people, it's subjective. If they're not satisfied with your answer, it's an excuse to them.

To be a bit more specific, I'd say there are two factors at play, which are of course hard for the other person to judge, especially if they're a manager not involved in the task itself:

  • If you can reasonably perform the task as expected despite the obstacle, it's probably an excuse. If you can't, it's almost certainly a valid reason.
  • If you wanted to perform the task as expected, then something that caused you to not do so is likely a valid reason. If you didn't want to, then you're more likely to be using an excuse.

Of course, it also depends on the priority level of the task. If your sibling asks for a glass of water and you get them a mug because there are no glasses in the cabinet, those stakes are low enough that it's a valid reason even though you could have checked the dishwasher or washed a glass yourself.

I'd say option 3. Personally, I don't care if random websites get my IP among a list of hundreds of others, and if someone wants to keep their IP hidden from strangers, they should be using a VPN before browsing the net anyways. It'd also be nice not to have to open another instance when I come to a post with a broken image that I want to see, but that's not hugely important to me.

If it were an instance specifically for privacy enthusiasts, that'd be a different story, but this is a general-purpose instance, and option 3 seems to be what's best for both general users and the server itself.

They let you dump the water out, keep the bottle, and refill it at the bottle filling stations once you're inside.

You're not allowed to bring nail trimmers? I did...

I couldn't find a good character sheet that's fully customizable without digging into complex formulas and reference tables, so I made my own. Feel free to use it or give feedback.

Well, test as much as you like! I have no authority over you.

But I will observe and possibly meddle if I don't forget. Mark my words!

 

There have been quite a few comments and posts arguing about political memes and whether they belong here. I'm not exactly in any position of authority, but hopefully I can do something about this.

Which option do y'all think is best?

  1. People who want to post political memes do so in !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca instead.
  2. People who don't want to see political memes subscribe to !memes@sopuli.xyz instead, which doesn't allow politics.
  3. Nothing changes.

I'm not asking for a rule to be made, I'm just asking for the general consensus. I'm hoping that this will help to raise awareness of those other communities, so that if people favor option 1, more political meme posters can move there, and if people favor option 2, more people who don't want politics can move there. And then I can also know whether to keep watching this community or move.

(Please don't downvote this post for complaining about political memes, because if it gets seen, it tells the complainers where they can go to avoid political memes, and then they'll be out of your hair.)

Howdy all! Some of my friends and I have been doing some planning for a Sonic themed platform fighter. We're still in the planning phase, because I want to make sure I can form a team before moving forward with development.

That said, if it interests you, why don't you come join our Discord server? We can discuss plans, and perhaps you could even join our team. We're particularly looking for people who can help make the animations. We have one guy for that already, but many hands make light work.

I'm planning on taking care of the programming, by the way.

I was looking around to see if there were any good Sonic fangames in the platform fighter genre, a la Super Smash Bros. I found a few traditional fighters, but I much prefer the simpler controls of platform fighters.

Anyone know of any they can recommend? If not, I might look into making my own. Not sure yet.

I just stumbled on this the other day. Has anyone here ever used them? Whether you have or not, what do you think of them?

 

Spoiler - Doc season 9 episode 54When I saw he was playing with dragon eggs, I though he was going to do something simple, like make a contraption that repeatedly drops an egg to softlock Grian, so he'd have to get someone else to help him remove it.

But I guess things are never going to be so small-scale with Doc. I'm really looking forward to see how the others react.

Remember: Don't do this to your friends (unless they have a Grian skin,) and always have backup gear in case of an accident.
