The catarrhine who invented a perpetual motion machine, by dreaming at night and devouring its own dreams through the day.
Interconnect those baby steps, by having the governments
That IMO would increase the odds of success. And once the first steps are done, further steps will be easier.
I did use the first LMDE for some time, and I loved it, it’s a great distro. I don’t recall why I went for the Ubuntu-based Mint later on, I think it was the PPAs?
From what I remember*, there was always some rough corner. Such as the wi-fi, or the graphics card. Sure, Stable was rock solid, but you always needed something from Testing; and Testing in general was overall less stable than Ubuntu or Mint.
*This was years ago, so it might be inaccurate as of 2025.
Mint is Ubuntu minus everything that makes Ubuntu annoying. That’s why I like it.
I considered to go back to Debian but… eh, I’m too old and impatient for that. Nowadays I mostly want things that work out of the box.
The website’s quality decline has been for ten years or so. I remember well how it used to be; if I had my first account there it would be, like, 16 years old? (Good riddance.)
I’m glad people mentioned PieFed there (+10 score as of now!), as well as old style forums. (I’m hoping those eventually join the Fediverse. But even if they don’t, they still have a place in my heart.)
You could warn the players that the game is best played blind, and the source code will have spoilers. Beyond that it’s up to them, I guess. (Or us. …I’m genuinely curious about your game.)
This may not be the most wholesome but I’m looking to make an indie rpg that tackles the non-choice of being born. T
This reminds me a bit Deltarune: it goes all the length to let you choose the head, torso, and legs you prefer… then its (referring to the body, aka “your creation”) favourite food, blood type, colour… a gift… then a name. Then it says: “your wonderful creation will now be discarded. No one can choose who they are in this world.”
It’s the same general “vibe” I get from your idea - we don’t choose certain things.
I do recommend giving them a shot. Worst hypothesis (you hate it) they’re easy to pick out.
One hint I can give you, if making it at home, is to soft-boil them (8min). You want the yolk firm enough to slice, but not too cooked - to compensate for the baking.
enjoy yours tomorrow
Thanks!
The sliced eggs go alongside other toppings; none of the toppings requires a lot of cooking time, so the eggs won’t get overcooked.
This is a twist on a common local (Brazil) pizza flavour, pizza à portuguesa (lit. “pizza alla Portuguese”):
Except I’m subbing tomatoes for mushrooms.
Wow, this looks delicious - and I have all ingredients in my kitchen+front yard! I’m probably trying it this week, barbecued, as soon as I get a non-rainy day. Thank you for sharing this!
I checked the recipe, and it looks really good! A bit on the laborious side, but it could worse. (Worse as in “cleaning sardines from their scales and guts at home, so you can grill them, for five people”.)
From the questions you often ask here, it seems you really enjoy movies - I hope you two have fun!
Tuesday I’m going to bake myself a pizza. I’m planning olives, ham, bell peppers, boiled eggs, mushrooms, onion, basil for toppings.
It isn’t just for me (my mum asked pizza Saturday, but a bit too late for dinner), but I feel like treating myself. Ah, I’m almost certainly buying some wine to drink alongside it.
How much do you bet that r/50501 will be eventually banned as “encouraging violence” or some similar bullshit? We’re dealing with Reddit.
Myself got shadowbanned not too long ago. Shadowbanning is fucking stupid, unless you’re damn sure you’re dealing with automated spam; when handling humans it’s the same as “we don’t want you here, but since we’re liars and deceivers we won’t tell you so.”
I’d say the best thing to do here is to weaponise the Streisand Effect: spread awareness of what Reddit is doing and silencing. Like OP and the OOP are doing.
Perhaps. I can’t rule out completely the possibility of Lemmy stagnating. In that case as PieFed development progresses, and the feature gap becomes wide, more and more instances shift from one to another. I do think however the Lemmy devs won’t simply see their software being replaced without “fighting back” (in a good way).
A third possibility would be specialisation - PieFed and Lemmy still coexisting, but taking different niches.
There’s always some silver lining.
I think this increased adoption of PieFed might even benefit instances sticking to Lemmy; Lemmy development will likely speed up, to avoid making Lemmy seem “obsolete” in comparison with PieFed.
Your title suggests Lemmy is proprietary which it is not.
Lemmy and KBin are both open source. [implying: “OP suggests Lemmy and/or KBin are not open source”]
*sigh* in no moment the OOP even implies that.
On-topic: PieFed is packed with a bunch of interesting stuff, mentioned by another user in that thread: better resource usage, better mod tools, gallery view, the ability to combine comments from different comms, a multi-reddit-like feature… and, additionally:
I’m actually rather excited for it, because it seems to be progressing at a fast pace.
Got it - sorry for the confusion then!
And I need to admit that your take of the mod = Maxwell’s demon thing is way more interesting.
Relevant detail: this potential removal of the driver does NOT affect normal CD-R / DVD-R functionality. It’ll only prevent you from using them as if they were rewritable media.
