The silent “majority” who haven’t won a popular vote for president since George W. Bush in 2004 despite intentionally disenfranchising millions of voters in liberal areas every election! How’s that work?

I think I’m overly sensitive because my power is very expensive and my home is getting pretty warm right now!

That’s so much electricity though! That equipment is typically so cheap bc the power draw is nuts. I agree the pi isnt the right move but why burn up so much power when they won’t be using practically any of it, to learn?

I’d suggest a small, used x86-64 mini-pc, throw in 16gb of ram and a HDD. If you dont pay for electricity, like in a dorm, then the old server-grade stuff is the way to go. Plus it will keep you very toasty in the winter.

I think this is geared towards folks who are convinced counting calories doesnt work. That they are gaining weight even though they “only has 1k calories per day”.

No, not really. My VFT catches gnats but I don’t think it would effectively reduce them overall.

Once the new season drops I think things will pick up.

Piracy. I couldn’t live with 25%+ of my TV watching time being advertisements. Manually downloading episodes became too much trouble so I setup a Plex/sab/sonars/radarr config on a pi connected to a 4-bay external drive enclosure featuring refurbished HGST 2tb HDDs in an lvm raid-5 config.

Eventually I also substituted my radio with paid Spotify so about the only ads im served are product placements and billboards. Its amazing how much less you’ll spend without ads!

AVB tastes awful to me so im not much for the gourmet experience.

Mix with everclear in a tuppaware container. Shake the container for a few minutes. Strain out the liquid and mix with OJ. Be careful, this shit knocks you out.

@khazram Hello from kbin!

Kbin has normal upvote/downvotes since a recent update.

Yea, good call. I wonder if kbin makes them viewable because the activity pub protocol does not allow them to be easily hidden.

Activities are public and easily viewable on kbin. It’s been interesting. Seems mostly positive other than people harassing those who down-vote them demanding explanations.

Beans on their beans.

I wouldn’t expect to see mastodon content in Lemmy at the moment; I’m pretty sure that functionality hasn’t been built in. Kbin can view Mastodon content as “microblogs”. I’m not sure how ‘viewing lemmy content from Mastodon’ is supposed to work since it doesn’t work in the other direction.

That view looks like it’s prolly great!

Actually- scratch that. updates from kbin.social are definitely slowed to a crawl right now.

I’m surprised you’re having trouble federating with kbin.social- that’s always been working for me from my personal instance. I have trouble federating with a few lemmy instances though. Lemmy.ml is still blocking the kbin useragent. And the communities of infosec.pub, sh.itjust.works, sopuli.xyz, among others- cannot be discovered from kbin.

Right now its a bit of a mess while things are quickly developing. Ultimately, federated communities should look the same across the fediverse, with a slight delay.

There are some caveats to that around defederation.

Lemmy.ml is blocking the kbin useragent at the moment. Not sure what’s going on there.
