Stoat, to StarTrek

startrek.website is a partnership between /r/StarTrek and /r/DaystromInstitute from Reddit, they've both locked their subs over there for good. Follow @startrek for all your Trek needs. 🖖 :trek:

lmorchard,

Hailing frequencies open!

lmorchard,

Bud, this is like going to someone's house for a party and complaining that they don't have your favorite beer. How about you go for a beer run?

lmorchard,

Robert Scoble took a shower in one and the Google Glass image has yet to recover

Following remote communities is hard.

It's easy to discover communities on my instance via the dedicated page in the hamburger menu. But let's say I want to follow a community on another instance, such as !lemmy . I might have found its name mentioned in a post or comment. When I click on the provided link, I'm thrown on that instances web page, from which I of...

lmorchard,

What's even weirder is that from over here, on my instance, that link takes me to https://kbin.social/m/!lemmy@lemmy.ml on your instance. So, something is funky

lmorchard,

Communities are per server, as I understand it. Two servers might host communities that have the same name, but they are different distinct communities. There is no global namespace.

Imagine two servers, each focused on a different city: !news and !news would be different, despite having the same name

lmorchard,

Eh, your comment was pretty clear as-is. Hope I helped, though. 😅 This fediverse stuff is sometimes tangly to explain & understand

anders, to lemmy

Lemmy is booming

I have never before received so many reactions and comments on my Lemmy posts before, so it's obvious to see, that there are many new members here.
Welcome to all the new! And I'm looking forward to see more of you here.
Cheers!

lmorchard,

Well, it got me to try installing an instance of my own. We’ll see if I manage to keep it running 😂

lmorchard,

I've not quite been running mine for a day, so far. So, I'm not a great authority. But, so far, all the docker containers together are taking less than 500MB RAM and barely any CPU. And this is on a repurposed old gaming PC in my basement that's also hosting Mastodon, Calckey, and a bunch of other ill-advised crap. I've been using tailscale and a super cheap linux cloud host with some reverse proxies to expose the services to the internet

lmorchard,

I really like the Mass Effect series, but I kind of count Star Control II — the Ur-Quan Masters as the spiritual prequel to at least ME1.

Lots of similarities in wandering around the universe chatting with aliens and digging up the mysteries of the precursors while working to head off a galaxy-wide threat. You even get a special little lander vehicle to collect resources from exploring planets

lmorchard,

Been playing Honkai: Star Rail and Tears of the Kingdom at the same time like a maniac. I'll probably burn out on both and wander off.

The fun part is Star Rail almost becomes an idle game, eventually, because you can just set up auto battles to grind resources and set it off to the side to do its thing. Is this real gaming? I dunno, but it has pretty graphics.

lmorchard,

Depending on exactly what you have in mind as a cross-post feature, there is this button on posts to cross-post: cross-post button (also I see other folks have answered this, but seems like the replies didn't arrive over here on my derpy instance)
