Haven’t tested it but it seems so. Android client has the button too

Actually no, it isn’t personal

It comes from the very same thing you wrote in the second part of this post. No-one on Lemmy gets paid for their work. And communities have to be easy to set up, so “the committee” does not become a burned-out, too-powerful, bottleneck
But that means that it is also OUR (non-mod, just a lemming) responsibility to mark stuff that we feel is out of line, when we have the capacity to do so. If lemmy.world agrees this is out of line, simply blocking and muting does not help the wider community, only solves the problem for me. Anyone else coming in with fresh account will see this shit on the front, local posts page

And yes, the ones crossing the lines can easily come back. And I probably won’t catch them next time because I’ll be busy with my RL. That’s fine
What I do have control over is whether I cover the eyes or not. When I don’t have capacity to mark something, I cover them and move along. Other times, I flag them. In this situation I couldn’t find a report button for a whole community so created a post

It’s the same as a pile of trash on the pavement. If it’s not a burden in their schedule, a regular member of public should call the city about it. And when they don’t have time to do that, hopefully someone else will, that were busy the other day. How many of these someone-elses there are is not something we can control. But we can control if we are the someone else ATM

If we want to have corp-less commons, we have to be part of the team sometimes, when we have the capacity to do so
I had for this one, and now I’m moving on with my life :) ✌

What about Element/Matrix?

Ok so now you’re asking to speak to the managers manger, and that’s gunna be the developers dude.

Yeah, but maybe there is a button for that already, and I just can’t find it

I get your sentiment bc I have to follow tos myself. But can I ask what other stuff would you put in the category of harmful? Just asking straight not yelling at you here.

I don’t have a straight up list for that but some other examples I’d say would be:

• how to get everything mortgaged to invest in our casino
• how to get diazepine by cooking up cough pills (I’m inventing the names here)
• how to spot <ethnicity>
• maybe-snuff videos

I find the porn shit to be in the obscene annoying category. Like I’m in a field trying to catch butterflies and all there are, are fucking mosquitos lol

To me it’s not the porn that’s the problem, it’s the attitude in the community description
Not so long ago there have been repeated news about mistreatment of women in India. Big part of Hindu ethnicity lives in India. IMO this kind of content normalizes aggressive objectification
I know that porn is just a fantasy. But it seems (I won’t be spending time on searching for the papers, sorry. These are ~last year, so shouldn’t be hard to find) that for some reason this kind of fantasy does induce intimacy problems

I know that there are many others like that and there are other areas of human life that gets skewed with content-insatiability and marketing. But if I can’t mark them all IMO doesn’t mean I shouldn’t mark the one I see

And to freedom-fighters:
Lemmy being a federation, if someone wants to create a server about cooking aspirin, I’m fine with that. But I chose this instance also because of what was in the rules. I felt that community was crossing the line and asked if mods feel the same

But that’s just a block for me. Not a removal. I think harmful stuff should be removed

I would also keep the “on speed” part. Even if the band aren’t users

Prince Wang’s programmer was coding software. His fingers danced upon the keyboard. The program compiled without and error message, and the program ran like a gentle wind.

“Excellent!” the Prince exclaimed. “Your technique is faultless!”

“Technique?” said the programmer, turning from his terminal, “What I follow is Tao – beyond all techniques! When I first began to program, I would see before me the whole problem in one mass. After three years, I no longer saw this mass. Instead, I used subroutines. But now I see nothing. My whole being exists in a formless void. My senses are idle. My spirit, free to work without a plan, follows its own instinct. In short, my program writes itself. True, sometimes there are difficult problems. I see them coming, I slow down, I watch silently. Then I change a single line of code and the difficulties vanish like puffs of idle smoke. I then compile the program. I sit still and let the joy of the work fill my being. I close my eyes for a moment and then log off.”

In general the impression I have from reading various sources is that Cyberpunk missions are good sources

I got that reference!

So far I like some of missions in Tales of Night City.

You mean this?

Yeah, in the end you’ll always end up doing an inspiration rather than running it directly. But among pre-prepared missions there are those that are flexible and those that rely on assumptions. I was hoping that maybe someone had looked at this book and has an opinion which category these fall in

It was a great adventure. But yeah, that setup was on 24/7. Not because of compilation, but it definitely made a lot of this more feasible

Gentoo unstable was a little bit tiring in the long run. The bleeding edge, but often I needed to downgrade because the rest of the libraries were not ready

Gentoo stable was really great. Back then pulseaudio was quite buggy. Having a system where I could tell all applications and libraries to not even link to it (so no need to have it installed at all) made avoiding its problems really easy
But when my hardware got older and compilation of libreoffice started to take 4h, I remembered how nice it was on Slackware where you just install package you broke and you’re done

Arch looked like a nice middle-ground. Most of the things in packages, big focus on pure Linux configurability (pure /etc files, no Ubuntu(or SUSE?) “you need working X.org to open distro-specific graphics card settings”) and AUR for things there are no official packages for. Turned out it was a match :)

Windows (~6 years) -> Mandriva (Mandrake? For I think 2-3 years) -> Ubuntu (1 day) -> Suse (2 days) -> Slackware (2-3 years) -> Gentoo unstable (2-3 years) -> Gentoo stable (2-3 years) -> Arch (9 years and counting)

The only span I’m sure about is the last one. When I started a job I decided I don’t have the time to compile the world anymore. But the values after Windows sum up to 21, should be 20, so it’s all more or less correct

Request: if you decide to add new blogs, could you also make a post about it on your blog, please?

After some time I discovered that I’d prefer narrower choice of blogs, so I copied your selection and manually created my own list. But I’d still like to leverage your moderation, so if you wrote about it on your blog, I would know to check them out

I don’t think there’s one answer to that. To me it depends on the context of the clock and what’s your plan for pacing. Also it will be part of your style that you just have to find for yourself, what works for you

(Cyberpunk examples)

• Tripping guards suspicion on-site: one small clock
  Consequence is not an alarm yet but from now on everything that has to do with guards can have lower position
• Tripping alarms for the whole building: bigger clock
  Or don’t set up such clock at all if everything going completely south doesn’t fit your overarching plot plans
• Mafia responds to characters asking around: small clock
  They have reputation to uphold, they can’t have someone nosing around in visible way Consequence:
  • someone who said something gets in trouble, making others harder to work with (lower position)
  • Mafia learns who they are (if that would be serious problem for the whole run, I’d make it a bigger clock)
  • They get set up and have an unplanned meeting with a bunch of enforcers
  • It gets so obvious that they get contacted by this group’s opponents and the situation is stacked that characters either comply with demands or will have very hard time completing the run
• Police/corp responds to characters doing runs against the corp
  • If you plan the corp to be present in the plot, make it a big clock to fill it after a few runs
    • Or make it small to force the characters to manage their footprint from the early stage (lower position when doing things the corp can piece together)
  • If it makes sense that corp would first send police after them, make it two small clocks
  • If you don’t care about the corp, make it a short clock, to hopefully resolve it during this session
    If they manage to not fill it, after all, keep the clock for the future. The next time you feel it’s going too well for them, you can fill this clock instead of more current one. Suddenly bringing old grudges into the mix

So depending on what you want to do it’s either bigger or smaller clock, with consequences either in fiction or mechanical

Personally I don’t but my grandpa was electronics engineer by trade and hobby and I was also talking to some electronics engineers in my previous job when I was toying with the idea myself. In both cases for home projects they were etching the paths by covering the plate with laser printer ink. When you get really good at that you can even get into SMD range of path width. The higher part of the range - you can’t outdo machine ECB printing if you want to get the paths really narrow - but workable.

1. print your paths on regular paper. The more DPI, the better
2. clean the empty board
3. use hot iron (like the one for clothes) to transfer laser printer ink from the paper to the board
4. take the paper off
5. inspect the paths, apply some marker (or wax, I think? I might misremember) in places where it’s not perfect
6. etch the board

Although, some of my colleagues at work were saying that at the prices you can order an ECB to be printed nowadays (for hobby better to find something local, so you have easier contact and shipping won’t cost you a leg) it’s not worth the hassle anymore. Pick the business which page looks like from the 90s. You are looking for electrical engineering veterans so they know more about electronics than webpages

You might want to search for your local hackerspace. For sure they have it all figured out for the area they operate in

If you want to access your computer from outside your LAN, it would be a good idea to at least secure it or, unfortunately the best, learn to understand what you are doing

Coming back to the topic, though, I’d start with checking these out

When I don’t have the time to enable sheltered apps, I use Firefox with uBlock and AutoCookieDelete to watch the links
Last time I did this was a few hours ago

Characters in the title are not the regular ones making it look like a spam mail, no link, description sounds like corpo LLM. If there really is some podcast somewhere, I think it deserves better
