Wait a minute, with the ice spell last week and the stage play this week... Am I in a gag anime?

There's a lot I forgot about the source material, including Shiki's theory that the attack on the empire was also a diversion based on his views of which hero is a long term threat rather than a short term one.

Also is nice that we finally get to see the demiplane residents actually do something after all the training they've been doing. Convenient to have a small army in your pocket.

And not sure how to feel about the goddess meeting. Perhaps sad he didn't get a punch in, but not for lack of effort at least? An interesting relationship where it seems they're clearly at odds, and vocal about it, but can't really do anything against each other easily too.

Not a scientist so couldn't quite tell from the article if this would work for its use case; but all of the prepared / cooked food I see at my grocery store is packed in plastic containers. They all have shelf life of that day / maybe a couple of days (this is like a buffet + packed / prepared meals, not sure what exactly to describe it as). I always thought it would be great if that could be less wasteful, it'd definitely make me feel more likely to buy it instead of all being in single use plastic containers.

@hitstun@fedia.io just wanted to check with you as I think I misunderstood your request for a CSS var for color scheme. Do you mean you'd like something like class=theme--scheme-[light/dark] on the body class? For instance when the user selects tokyo night, solarized dark, dark, kbin it's theme--scheme-dark and when light or solarized light, theme--scheme-light to save you from having to type out selectors for each theme?

And I did investigate the magazine description federation issues. Think I have an idea, I'll make an issue for it and it will probably be the next thing I work on after my current open PRs.

We're also trying to investigate and solve the issues he's been running into

If you can give me any more details, let me know. Looking at your instance, I only see two communities from lemmy.today, and one looks like it was deleted, so should only be their announcements one. Is the one you're having trouble interacting with the potentially deleted one?

Or do you mean users rather than communities? If you're trying to report threads or comments, are they potentially already removed from blahaj and then it won't let you interact with them?

To sum up some things about cross instance interaction as of this date:

  • reports do propagate to lemmy
  • moderator actions do not propagate back
  • direct messages don't work cross instance

I can think of Forspoken and Deathloop

I recently watched DansGaming play through this last Halloween. Was interesting to finally see what all the hype was about as everyone had asked for it every year. As a fan of point-and-click games, it was interesting to see something in FMV and what they did with scenes to blend the real and video game aspects. Story-wise it felt a lot more coherent and suspenseful compared to Harvester, but didn't quite blow me away either. That might be too harsh, the music and set work obviously was done well, perhaps after nearly 30 years of other video game media the storyline just felt a little, expected.

I always think about the post I saw a while back that was like "I use KeepassXC, a fork of KeepassX, a port of Keepass". That seems very likely to be true in regards to the fediverse as well.

But I think that's great, as a contributor to one platform I don't necessarily see it as "one software above all", which might be bad to say, but more like we're all sailing on the much larger ship Fediverse, and it's been great to see so much back and forth between the different ones, for example one person helping get pixelfed's avatars federating, or piefed's blogs, which helped reduce page load sizes for mbin by 40%. It's quite possible we're all just slowly contributing to a lot of learned lessons for a yet unstarted software.

All that said, mastodon does have a ton of staying power, as you said. Once they fully support groups, and lemmy has stated they never plan to support microblogs, it's quite possible that mastodon will be a very solid experience for most of what people are looking for.

The defederation is one-way; lemmy.world isn't defederating beehaw.org. lemmy.world users can still see the community, and even still post to it (I assume, not sure if lemmy.world took changes to stop that but, as you can see it even has posts from local lemmy.world users as of 2 months ago, but the last content from anyone outside the instance is 7 months old). However, they will never make it to beehaw.org and thus won't be federated anywhere else (only users on lemmy.world would ever see it).

That note was very interesting to me, because there's also Pulsar which is what I have been trying out, which also relates to Atom. I'm not sure if "fork" is the right word as I don't know the complete history, but installing packages uses atom packages / github sources so it's fairly similar. I wonder what led to this other one

The anti-unionization stuff makes me sad. They're really the only ones around here who carry vegetarian/vegan options. If I go to the chain store next door the prices are quite a bit more expensive, and all they have is a small corner of the refrigerated section of vegetarian options of questionable expiration.

Patch 6.55 Notes

I remember watching people going through the story saying something to the vein of: "This seems super important, I'll be interested in seeing the payout later in the story". They'll be waiting for quite a while it seems (specifically for the cost she's meant to be paying for seeing). But they get around everything by saying "Ah, magic aether ink, of course". I guess the ridges of stone also have corner aether or something, I don't know, imagine they'll just hand wave most of it

I have a PR open to disable automatically opening entries that are marked NSFW when auto media preview sidebar setting is enabled.

I wanted to get some feedback from people on if this is something that they would be okay with, or if it's something they want to leave as is.

The main change would be for people that would want to preview NSFW, they will have to manually open those entries themself.

One consideration I have is potentially adding a new user option when auto media preview is enabled of "also auto media preview NSFW", but our sidebar is quite full of options, not that one more is a big deal but there have been a lot of discussions in the past about moving some of them to the user settings pages and making them persistent, which is a much larger undertaking
