TIL that retired chemist, Khonghao Shou, predicted the 2003 earthquake in Bam, Iran by observing cloud formations.
He not only predicted the approximate date, but also the magnitude and epicenter....

do any off the Lemmy or kbin apps provide a way to browse instances other than your own? kind of like filtering for “local” posts but local to another federated instance....
For a piracy-oriented community I’m surprised this isn’t discussed as much....
Has anyone done this successfully? There’s a button that says “download,” but nothing happens. I tried a couple of free video downloading apps, and they say access denied. I can watch, but not download. (Some people post videos of classical music concerts there, then share links on a forum, in case you wondered.)
I’m very new to the fediverse, but I love the concept. I was really excited about the idea of setting up my own instance (because apparently I can’t just wade into the shallow end first). As I started reading guides and thinking through how it would all work, a question popped into my mind: How does an instance A discover...
Alright, my issue is not new. It’s the same old non-genuine Adobe bricking window that people have been bringing up here for years....
Quo Vadis, Aida? (2021): Bosnia, July 1995. Aida is a translator for the UN in the small town of Srebrenica. When the Serbian army takes over the town, her family is among the thousands of citizens looking for shelter in the UN camp....
Am I doing something wrong? I search communities with key word weather and find no communities with over a few to maybe a dozen subscribers....
I am picky about the features I look for in a smartphone. Hopefully this post can be a good resource for myself and others who have similar preferences. For reference, I am using a Oneplus 7 Pro with a non-functional camera and flashlight....
misskey is another federated social media. Has anyone tried it? Thanks github.com/misskey-dev/misskey
Or is it just a coincidence?
Does anyone have a recommendation for someone with a domain name and a k8s cluster where I can set up a simple image and/or video host?...
I am trying to switch away from Lemmy.world after getting used to Lemmy to reduce the stress on their servers and add to the decentralized nature of Lemmy.
I currently use Grafana to view how all sorts of stuff changes over time. It gets the job done, but is far from ideal:...
I have tried stitch which WAS on Fdroid but anymore because it seems to be not foss. It is really hard to find one so far.
I’m firmly on the side of “water is not wet” in this debate, but it’s a question that I was asked while I was high and have no answer to it. Water cannot itself be wet because you can’t get water on water. However, what is a fish in a lake? It can’t be wet until it’s taken out of the water, but it’s not dry...
Hi guys. This is not going to be a long post and I will briefly explain why I didn’t like Lemmy and going straight back to Reddit....
I’m here to give an update to my journey from an Android to an iPhone after much debate in a previous post (from a different account). TLDR at the bottom....
What is in your opinion the better matrix server software for self-hosting, Construct, Conduit or Dendrite (or even something completely different)?
I found about this a few months ago, it’s a free tool that makes the task of managing the internet access of programs a easy one. For example, you can select exactly which process can access the internet manually, of course blocking some system things on windows will disable the connection totally until reactivated....
My home lab has a mild amount of complexity and I’d like practice some good habits about documenting it. Stuff like, what each system does, the OS, any notable software installed and, most importantly, any documentation around configuration or troubleshooting....
I’m a big fan of stremio, just wondering if there’s been development of an open source desktop app. I’d like to avoid the ads and the login component. blog.stremio.com/announcing-stremio-core-embracin…
Can I just say how fortunate we are that both of the recent actors for Pike did smash-up jobs? I’m talking about Bruce Greenwood in the Kelvin films and of course Anson Mount in SNW. Each brought something different and was a stand out in their respective appearances.
