Dica de quem acabou de precisar: tenha uma muda de roupas extra sempre que possível

Nunca se sabe quando vai precisar trocar ou vestir a mais, tipo em mudança de clima, se tiver algum acidente que só custe a roupa (meu caso e.e"), etc.

Daí sempre bom ter fácil, no carro, na mochila, etc.

All this is for the Empire. Luca had never once questioned his dream of joining Accretia’s Imperial Guard. Not until he met Ilay, that is. The most unexpected of friends, Ilay’s personality and family background are nothing like Luca’s. However, it is through their differences that the two friends will begin to shape not only each other, but even the very planet on which they live.

What is lemmy

Lemmy is a self-hosted social link aggregation and discussion platform. It is completely free and open, and not controlled by any company. This means that there is no advertising, tracking, or secret algorithms. Content is organized into communities, so it is easy to subscribe to topics that you are interested in, and ignore others. Voting is used to bring the most interesting items to the top.


Two years have already passed since we started working on some major new features for Lemmy. Back then we still planned to release them as version 0.20, but over time the scope expanded and it turned into version 1.0 instead. Besides many new features, we also took the opportunity to do a lot of cleanup work, so that 1.0 can remain stable for a very long time.

Below you can see the list of major new features. This is far from complete because there are simply too many changes to list. In general, any Github issue which was fixed over the last two years and didn't get into version 0.19, will be part of version 1.0.

For users:

  • Redesigned UI: New card view, less clutter
  • Post Tags: Categorize posts within a community.
  • Multi-communities: Group different communities together into a custom feed.
  • Post scheduling: Specify when your post should be published.
  • Keyword filter: Automatically hide posts about certain topics.
  • Private communities: Only approved followers can view the content (plus other community visibilities).
  • Notifications improvements including notifications for mod actions, and subscribing to community/post notifications.
  • Combined Feeds: view your liked posts and comments together in a single list.
  • User vote totals: There is a setting to view the vote totals you've given to any user.
  • User notes: You can make and view notes for any user.
  • GDPR style data exporting: You can now export your historical data as a JSON file.

Other changes:

  • Comment Locking: Comments can now be locked, and it also locks any reply comments.
  • Plugins: Can be written in JS, Python, Rust, and any other language that targets Webassembly. See the documentation for details.
  • Cursor pagination: Don't lose your place in the feed when switching pages.
  • OAuth: Login to Lemmy with existing account from another website.
  • New API v4: Apps and frontends need to be updated to take advantage of new features. There is also a backwards compatible API v3 available.

The main work which still needs to be done before the official release is SQL optimizations. Some queries are still too slow, taking up to 300ms. And the database migrations from 0.19 to 1.0 take roughly 20 hours for lemmy.ml (smaller instances will be much faster). If you are an expert with PostgreSQL we need your help. Please have a look at the following issues which include all the relevant details:

The other remaining task is testing and bug fixing. Now it is your turn as Lemmy users: on voyager.lemmy.ml try the new version and create an account. Signups are open, feel free to make posts, create communities and do everything else that can be done. Spamming test posts is absolutely encouraged. See how the new features work, and open an issue if you encounter any problem (backend, frontend).

If you run a test instance for Lemmy, we suggest that you upgrade it to 1.0.0-beta.0 by following the instructions. You can also try to run the 1.0 database migrations against a local copy of your production database. This will show how long the upgrade process will take, and help to reveal bugs in the migrations.

Be careful about upgrading production instances. In principle you can already use 1.0 in production. Be sure that you have working backups and that you can restore them. Expect to tolerate major bugs, or to revert back to the stable version for now. If you have any problems, join the admin chat on matrix or ask in /c/lemmy-support.

For developers of Lemmy apps and clients, now is the time to start updating your projects to use the new API v4. This will give you enough time to use the new API once Lemmy 1.0 is finally released. See the API v4 upgrade guide for instructions. If you develop any tools which integrate with Lemmy, have a look at the new plugin system.

Over the next months we will focus on testing and bug fixing. Afterwards, when when all major problems are fixed we will go to the release candidate phase. Then lemmy.ml will be upgraded to version 1.0.0-rc.0 to find remaining problems in production. When these are also resolved we will publish the final 1.0 release.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the new release so far!


An open source project the size of Lemmy needs constant work to manage the project, implement new features and fix bugs. Dessalines and Nutomic work full-time on these tasks and more. As there is no advertising or tracking, all of our work is funded through donations. Even so there is barely enough time in the day, and no time for a second job. The only available option are user donations.

To keep it viable donations need to reach a minimum of 5000€ per month, resulting in a modest salary of 2500€ per developer. If that goal is reached we can stop worrying about money, and fully focus on improving the software for the benefit of all users and instances. We especially rely on recurring donations to secure the long-term development and make Lemmy the best it can be.

From North Island Wildlife Recovery Centre

Who's that fluffy little owl in the mirror?

This young Great Horned Owl was initially brought into an animal hospital after concerns it may have been abandoned. Since this little owl is currently being housed solo, a little mirror roommate for company will have to do for now!

We use a variety of techniques to help prevent imprinting and keep wild birds behaving as naturally as possible during care. This includes mirrors, mirrored feeding headgear during assisted feeding, and minimizing human interaction whenever possible to help give these patients the best chance at a successful return to the wild.

If you find a bird or wild animal you believe may be abandoned or injured, please call a wildlife rehabilitation centre before intervening. A quick phone call can help determine whether the animal needs assistance and can prevent unnecessary stress or accidental separation from its parents.

A GameCube/Wii emulator and debugger written in Rust. - Release Public Release · ioncodes/gecko

Gecko is still in development. While many games work well, most will likely have varying degrees of visual glitches or will be outright broken. Refer to the screenshot databases to gauge compatiblity:

Note: Only NTSC games are tracked. The screenshot service makes a best effort attempt to enter games by pressing random buttons. Just because a game doesn't go ingame, doesn't mean it actually doesn't.

This is a beta preview of the May 2026 update to 86Box, bringing in the obligatory bugfixes, some performance improvements, user interface updates and lots of new hardware.

Important note: The ROM set for this beta release is not displayed on the roms GitHub page. Download it through this link.
Main features

After the floppy drive sounds feature in v5.2, the same contributor now brings in hard disk sounds, configurable through the hard disk settings separately from the existing model presets. Recordings from three 3600 RPM disk models are currently available, with more to come in the future.

The long-awaited local switch allows for networking multiple 86Box machines running on the same host computer and across multiple hosts on the same real network, automatically and across platforms, unlike previous solutions such as VDE which required manual configuration and left Windows users in the dark. Multiple networks can be created and isolated by passwords, and more technically-inclined users can connect other emulators to the switch; see the documentation for more information.

Serial and parallel connectivity also saw many updates. On the parallel side, printers are now configurable, new sound devices join the existing DACs, and the new Named Pipe device can connect machines together with a LapLink cable or the rare DirectParallel cable for high-speed Windows Direct Cable Connection. On the serial side, the passthrough feature has evolved into serial devices bringing many improvements: Named Pipe (now supported on Linux and macOS) has an automatic client/server mode, Serial Passthrough no longer requires setting the host port’s baud rate separately, and Virtual Console (now supported on Windows) can automatically connect a terminal to the emulated port.

SCSI tape drives are now emulated, in case you’re emulating a retro server and want to make period-accurate backups. Tape drives for the floppy interface, which were more common in the consumer space, are planned for the future.

Many updates have been made to the user interface, starting with some updated icons, including a more colorful logo. New toolbar buttons allow for fast forwarding emulation (running as fast as your host system can handle) and quickly taking a screenshot to file or clipboard. The Settings window was starting to become overwhelming with the sheer amount of options available, so it now has tabs on most pages; most of the options you know are still there, just organized into tabs, and some no longer require a hard reset to be applied. All device selectors now have search, activated by clicking the X button and typing a search query. The Preferences window now has pages like the Settings window.

Our Mckinder's Eagle Owl is growing fast, we think he is a male but not certain, looking for an African Name for him.

The Mckinder's Eagle Owl is the largest of the 3 subspecies of Cape Eagle Owls of sub-Saharan Africa, found in southern Kenya and northern South Africa.
