@elonjet I have an honest question. How can an engine emit more CO2 (by weight) than the fuel it consumed?

Hey … you’re posting to lemmy from mastodon … that’s awesome!!

Just a few small tips for making it work better on the lemmy side of things (mostly post formatting).

First … you can look at how your post appears on lemmy here: startrek.website/post/363006

Basic formatting tips:

  1. Treat the first line of you post as the title. You can see that your whole post, including hashtags, is on one line, and so creates a large messy title over here.
  2. Keep hashtags out of the title as they create links that are messy
  3. The next lines are treated as the body of the post … you can put everything else here including hashtags (which will work well) etc.
  4. If you want to tag anyone else, make sure to tag them after the lemmy community, as lemmy only pays attention to the first tag (which is a measure to prevent spam)

I wrote a little demo of what works here: hachyderm.io/@maegul/110483509521476095

Otherwise … really appreciate the effort to try to bridge these two spaces!

Seeing as Blast Fall Groups is starting tomorrow and is (to my knowledge) the first larger event since the Reddit blackout, what's the plan for post-match threads? Is the existing team from the subreddit going to make posts here as well? I'm willing to try my hand at creating some post-match threads, but I don't want to get in the way of any existing plans (and I'll probably be late/missing details anyways).

AAA ,

Just give a try. Providing content isn’t a monopoly and same/similar content can exist next to each other.

I welcome any content on the topic, how else are we growing this thing?

Hello @HyperCube

I have DM'ed you just now, but you absolutely can go ahead. Normally we have a PMT team outside the mod team responsible for that. You can experiment with the tool I sent you for now and we can see how that goes. The more people jump on this effort the merrier 🎭

@jkmooney I tried Lemmy but it seems like the wild west out there... I've seen things...

derskusmacher , to gaming

Spent a couple hours with today. I love the dialogue animations. The characters feel like characters instead of talking heads spewing voice lines. It's one of the few games I've played in a the last year or so that feels "next gen" (whatever that means in 2023) in fit and finish.

ono ,

That’s encouraging. Divinity: Original Sin 2 (their previous game) had a few rough edges, but overall was the best RPG I had played in a long time. I’m looking forward to their take on D&D. (Not going to touch it until it’s out of early access, though.)

derskusmacher OP ,

@ono It'll be interesting to see if the quality remains high throughout the whole experience, which is supposedly very long.

@apps is it possible to subscribe to the timelin of a account (like @startrek with a lot of postings per day) using without having those postings flooding my personal timeline?

I'm worried to flood my personal timeline and on the other hand it is possible to put an instances timeline on a list without directly following it.

@ValueSubtracted@startrek.website avatar

I think you could follow it, but also mute it.

To be honest, though, I find the overall experience is better with separate accounts for Mastodon and Lemmy.

Mastodon 4.1.4 allows hiding list contents from home. The feed is disordered, and is sometimes lacking context, but I find it minimally workable.

I stopped using mastodon completely when I migrated to neurodifferent.me and lost ALL my follows/followers. It just seems so exhausting to start again. Any ideas fellow friends?

@sahat@c.im avatar

@jfriday I experienced the exact same, when I left neurodifferent. me Lost 90 %. But I don't mind that much. I still have @actuallyautistic .And as my follows went with me, still the same feed.

nddev ,
@nddev@c.im avatar

@sahat @jfriday
I lost a handful of followers and follows when I moved from Fosstodon to two smaller instances. But that was because Octodon seems a little trigger-happy, and has blocked the two instances I now use. The user-migration feature was a little bit manual, but largely worked.

(Fosstodon is great, BTW. The reasons I migrated were (a) to get a higher character limit and (b) to split my Fedi presence into ND and other stuff, so that I don't have to come out as to IRL friends and colleagues.)

Jess, you could try posting to one of the most relevant groups (such as @actuallyautistic), explaining what's happened, giving your old Fedi ID (if that's comfortable and safe to do), and inviting your old followers to follow you again. You won't get them all back that way, but it'll be a start. And you can always follow the old crowd when you see them around; some of them will follow you back.

I'm sorry I don't have a better answer than that, but I hope you'll stick around here. 🙂

AEW Fight Forever Digital Foundry Review

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ff7C881qwzc

I've been strongly considering picking this up. I was a big fan of Yuke's old WCW games on N64 and this seems to really lean into that lineage.

@gaming

KennyOmega ,

It is such a fun game! It really does remind me of the oldschool wrestling games. They do a great job with making the wrestlers feel unique and exactly like they act on TV (Orange Cassidy, for example, can fight a whole match worth his hands in his pockets). There are a bunch of fun Easter eggs that I won’t spoil for you.

It is noticeable, though, that they didn’t have the resources to devote to the create a character feature. However, this is something that would naturally be updated as time goes by.

Tag team matches are a bit fiddly because you can’t tell your partner to come tag (as far as I know), and sometimes you’ll go to tag him but he’ll come into the ring instead. But the game doesn’t take itself too seriously, so these are minor issues.

All of the mini games are a blast except for one (in my opinion) and they just add a bit of a distraction that spices things up. If you don’t like them, you don’t need to play them, there is no forcing the player one way or the other.

I haven’t tried it yet, but it looks fun.

Considering the new European legislation, which forces interoperability between social networks and some speculate that's why Threads uses ActivityPub, wouldn't that force the European Fediverse to interact with Meta?

dudeami0 ,
@dudeami0@lemmy.dudeami.win avatar

From what I can read here:

The DMA’s threshold is very high: companies will only be hit by the rules if they have an annual turnover of €7.5 billion within the EU or a worldwide market valuation of €75 billion. Gatekeepers must also have at least 45 million monthly individual end-users and 100,000 business users.

So instances will not be required to federate because they will not be making the thresholds. This could explain why Meta is going to use the ActivityPub protocol though, and is an interesting perspective on the issue.

A lot of people are boasting here like "well I just deleted my 15+ year account with quintillion karma."

I'm not going to delete my account yet (but probably won't be posting anything on Reddit either). Instead, I came up with a Strange Hobby.

Because password managers are so ubiquitous and easy to use and everyone should use one, I somehow found a complete list of all Reddit throwaway accounts I had over the years. (You know, from back when you could create accounts in seconds and Reddit didn't make you sign a blood pact or whatever.)

So I've been deleting those accounts. There was a pile of them.

And I like to every time I delete an account, a little siren goes off in Reddit HQ and Spez is like "Aaaaagggh! Not another one!"

If ass pennies were reddit accounts

Your account only had a quintillion karma? My account had a sextillion karma.

Reddit admins appear to be removing links to Lemmy instances posted in comments.I'm seeing quite a few "[Removed by Reddit]" comments in /r/RedditAlternatives this evening. Anybody else seeing their comments being manipulated by Reddit staff today?

@Chozo Huffman is really taking all the cues from his hero Musk. Halving the valuation, alienating loyal developers and a core set of users and stifling freedom of information on the internet.
