@Lazycog@kbin.social

I am but a cog in a machine. A lazy one though.

Mastodon: @Lazycog

Me, a code necromancer, to a new hire:

  • Here is my legacy and burden which I leave to you:
    --- 20 year old Visual Basic application

I know that on lemmy admins of an instance can hand over a community on that instance to another person. Wonder if it is the same on kbin?

Yeah I understand, I'm bit hesitant to ping ernest since his hands are absolutely full, but maybe the question OP and you have really could use an answer so that we could do something about this. Hey @ernest , if you see this, is it possible to:

  1. Hand down a magazine ownership to another user
  2. give ownership of an instance to another user if the original owner has gone MIA?

AFAIK there were trolls commenting and harassing beehaw communities from .world and lemmy (I believe also Kbin) lack proper moderation tools to counter that. Supposedly it's only temporarily blocked until those required tools are implemented.

Ah sorry I looked at your question again and noticed I misread your question. No idea why that one instance was blocked.

Just found out that DuckDuckGo can be used to search Fediverse sites easily.

If you didn't know, on DuckDuckGo you can search for posts or magazines with site:kbin.social just like you would with Reddit. The same applies to any other Fediverse site like Kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon, etc.. I was really frustrated because it seems like Google was intentionally suppressing them....

Hey thanks for the tip! I also felt like fediverse was being suppressed by google, but wasn't sure whether thats the case or does google just need time to properly index these sites.

Lazycog,

Agreed. Wouldn't mind to subscribe on all 3 and get posts to my feed.

Additionally, Lemmy and Kbin are being actively developed, maybe this new wave of people pushes them to create tools so that you can combine magazines and communities into one metafeed/community where you see all the posts to all three communities.

Not only you, I can't bring up any lemmy.wtf communities through kbin right now

Some instances of Mastodon have a very large character limit (don't know if there are instances without limits).

Edit: just pointing out, not disagreeing

Lazycog,
Lazycog avatar

You could check out Calckey.social which has a limit of 4000 characters I believe. Maybe that is better for personal blog?

Lazycog,

Wow okay that's a lot! Might have to migrate my mastodon account there. Thanks for the tip!

Nice setup! Mind linking the background pic? Been looking for a new space background.

Damn, thank you so much!

You dropped... no, that was something we used to say in the old world. It's time for a new beginning and new ways. You go, floaty handman.

It's a slightly different syntax for accessing it from kbin: go to all magazines tab and type ttrpgs@lemmy.blahaj.zone to access the the community.

Edit: on kbin we use the @ character instead of lemmy's ! Exclamation character:

@ ttrpgs @ lemmy.blahaj.zone

And write it all together:

@ttrpgs

Eikä tarvitse edes olla lemmyn puolelle, itse olen kbinillä ja kommentoin täältä. Fediverse ❤️

The ramen stall was the best one so far and the funniest to see for the first time.

I'm just minding my own business, waiting for the race to begin in Jahai Bluffs, and this person pulls out a whole automated ramen stall and starts eating. Animations were top notch too!

Lazycog,

That one is also awesome! Made me want a real life one...

Lazycog,

You are right, was just reading on another thread that magazine names are case-sensitive. Have to check whether this has been posted as an issue to the developer.

@The_OG_Rocketman mind editing your links so people can directly click on the links to access your magazines?

Lazycog,

Yiss! I'll post mine as soon as I get home!

Lazycog,

Here we go:

Yess they are, and I like mine for the same reason as you, speeeeedboy!

And nice race choice for a scrapper 😉

Nice setup man! I have to ask, is that landline phone?

Lazycog,
Lazycog avatar

That's cool, I really miss the wire and hanging up by placing the phone on to the switch.
