And it's still worse than this toaster from the 60s.

It's always good...

Does it acrually have to be an APC (the brand) or can it be whatever brand of UPS?

I hate the modern ones you need to hover above so they even display, and then it's 1 pixel wide and a shade of grey that's about 2% darker than white.
Less functional and 500 lines of js garbage.

The fourth plane is the invisible one we made to fuck everyone's civil rights in response.

Not being hungry when going grocery shopping helps me more than doing lists. YMMV

It depends a lot on what you have in mind?
Something like a parametric mechanical gizmo will be very different than a sculpture thingy.

Parametric CAD:
I had to create a part that laid flat over decorative moulding. I took one end, traced its cross-section on paper, added an "L" traced with a square as a reference to compensate skew and to have an easy known dimension reference, then took a picture of that.
Opened in inkscape and traced path from bitmap, export to dxf, import into 3d cad software and use as sketch in the rest of the part.

Sculpting CAD:
Or maybe you're talking about something like a mini and looking to do photogrammetry instead.
Haven't tried that, but at least you know what it's called

That's if the US even upholds their end of whatever agreement and doesn't just fuck you over anyway whenever convenient.

Anecdotal evidence, but there seems to be less or this kinda spam than before yea.

 

You'd think with all the cereals we're producing, it'd be ubiquitous, but all the stuff at the grocery store was either Kelloggs, Kraft, or General Mills.
I think Shreddies are made in Canada, but owned by Post?

There seemsto be a few more options out west than here in QC.
I already get granola from a small local place which is great, but surely there's a Canadian version of corn flakes or rice krispies or whatnot somewhere.

I'm also open to just making my own.

English message:

As some of you may have noticed, there's an instance with 1.1M bots reposting reddit posts and comments accross communities in several other instances.  

I expect there are multiple valid opinions on the subject and this thread is meant to get a feeling of everyone's opinion on the situation. 

You might also want to read lemmy.ca's discussion on that here which is a pretty decent thread about the subject.  

Things that I think need to be pointed out:  

  • alien.top currently has 1.1M bots, only 6 of those are weekly users logging in. 
  • together they've made 1.59M comments accross a multitude of communities in other instances.
  • That project claims to be trying to get reddit users to switch to lemmy. 
  • They have a portal to allow reddit users to claim and take over their bot persona. 
  • alien.top has a single local community, the bots all post on different instances with copies of different subreddits.

I don't have an exhaustive list of such communities,  I haven't found an official one.  I'll post a fewfrom my personal blocklist in a comment below. 

And a note on the upcoming 0.19 release: 

  • the new user-level instance block feature will block all the communities of the blocked instances,  but will not block these users' posts or comments if they are done on another instance's community.  

My opinion isn't any more valid then anyone else's so I'll put it in a comment below.

Our users' input is welcomed.

What do you, dear users of sh.itjust.works, think about federation with them?

Thanks


Message français:

Comme certains d'entre vous l'ont peut-être remarqué, il y a une instance peuplée de 1,1M de bots qui copient ees posts et commentaires Reddit dans plein de communautés sur plusieurs autres instances.

Il y a plusieurs opinions sur le sujet et ce fil de discussion vise à prendre le pouls de l'opinion générale sur la situation.

Je vous suggères de lire la discussion chez lemmy.ca à ce sujet ici, discussion intéressante. 

Quelques points qui, selon moi, doivent être soulignés :

  • alien.top compte actuellement 1,1 million de robots, dont seulement 6 sont des utilisateurs hebdomadaires qui se login.
  • collectivement, ils ont déjà fait 1,59 million de commentaires dans une multitude de communautés dans différentes instances.
  • Ce projet proclame essayer de convertir des utilisateurs de Reddit à passer à Lemmy.
  • Il existe un portail pour permettre aux utilisateurs de Reddit de prendre contrôle de leur version bot.
  • alien.top a une seule communauté locale, les bots publient tous sur différentes instances, des copies de différents subreddits.

Je n'ai pas de liste exhaustive de ces communautés, à première vue, je n'en trouve pas une liste officielle.  Je mettrai dans un commentaire ci-dessous quelques communautés que j'ai bloqué au niveau personnel. 

Pour finir,  une note sur la version 0.19 de lemmy qui s'en vient :

  • La nouvelle fonctionnalité pour bloquer une instance au niveau d'un uutilisateur bloquera toutes les communautés d'une instance bloquée, mais ne bloquera pas les publications ou les commentaires de ces utilisateurs s'ils sont publiés dans une communauté d'une autre instance.

Mon opinion n'est pas meilleur qu'une autre et je mettrai plutôt dans un commentaire ci-bas.

Les commentaires de nos utilisateurs sont les bienvenus.

Que pensez-vous, cher utilisateurs de sh.itjust.works de la fédération avec eux?

Merci

 

Just stumbled upon this place while browsing /all and I also happen to have written some lines just yesterday, for the first time in years.
Some coïncidence.

I was inspired by a really nice photo in !raining@sh.itjust.works shared by @lewosadebu and I wasn't even writing verses at first but it kinda became something half-way through.

Don't get too excited, the lines aren't that great but the photo is nice to look at.
Peace

Wish I'd made a more worthy first post here, but pictures under 1MB do work (around 800k for this one, but failed at 1.2MB before resizing.

So anyway, what's everyone favorite book? Current read?
