I think you are mistaken. In Germany public photography is legal as long as it is not your intend to photograph/monitor individuals. They can totally be part of the image, just not the focus. Videos are also legal as long as it is not targeted or constant indiscriminate monitoring.

I don't think other EU countries have largely different laws given how common dashcams are.

 

Heyho, I recently joined lemmy and enjoy my time here. However, there are so many communities that I am sure I am missing a few good ones.

What are some communities, people are sleeping on? What communities have you found here that you didn't find in the same way on other platforms?

Feel free to suggest any communities!

I am personally interested in stuff around Open Source Tools (like cryptpad, pdftotext, gimp, trilium, drawio, ...), Magic The Gathering Commander/EDH, science news in general, ... but the answers here don't need to be limited to my interests.

Do what it takes to get them to a doctor and let them handle it. For example: "I want to support you, but I am no expert. Let's see a nutrition specialist to see what the best course of action is. Personally, I think you are not too fat, but if there is something you want to change, let's do it right.

That's the beauty. Given that there is no goal, you are able to define your own.

The times we live in are wild. Predicted that, Aldous?

That's what I call a big update!

 

Goal of this deck was to ramp as symmetrical as possible and then win by being better prepared to play on that high mana level and stealing the big spells your opponents bring out but without having a "Haha. I win" card - those and other mean cards are moved to the sideboard.

Well it does ramp everyone like crazy and speeds up game massively, whether you are able to win is a different topic... I still think it makes for fun games, but relies somewhat on you being able to a) steal really good cards b) player removing each other c) player wiping the board and you still having big boys left.

I think the concept is fun, but the idea can still be improved.

PS: I notice that the last post in this sub is also from me, but I feel like I am hurting no one by posting regularly. If you get annoyed by my Deck Help/Show Off posts, let me know and I will slow down.

I am sorry my comment offended you. I have deleted it. Thank you for sharing your view.

Sadly, I didn't draw any of the nonbasic land destruction cards and had to tutor for card draw in the beginning :/

TL;DR: Went well

I kept a 4 land hand and got punished for it by drawing only lands for a while afterwards. However, Entomb into Triarch Praetorian helped out a little, but still it was a really slow start. This made others not see me as a threat, which largely helped me win this match. An early Blasphemus gave me enough time to get back in the game.

In the late game I dropped Gray Merchant for devotion 3 out of desperation as I had nothing else, but had a lucky Jaxis next turn which allowed me to copy Gray for another 5 damage - heal was very welcome. Then some stuff happened and I was able to capitalize Etali and got a Skullclamp and from there I just exploded. Table turned against me but Big Game Hunter killed the worst threats allowing me to bring out Terror of the Peaks and copy him with a brought back blitzed Jaxis. That basically allowed me to finish all players.

I was quite lucky because earlier two players started a feud which also gave me more time to build up my board.

Anyway, I feel a bit bad that the deck won so quickly after doing nothing in the early game due to missing ramp and value pieces, but the quick finish showed that it definitely works. Have to go another round with it soon, but wanted to give the table something easier to deal with for the second game as one player started to feel bad about not getting into the game (Merfolk with a sol ring, arcane signet opening, overextended into my Blasphemus wipe).

I have set up a good hand full of dual booted Windows/ Linux machines. Never had any major issues. However, I also noticed that I only use Linux except for games and that's slowly changing, too, so I would suggest trying the dual boot if it makes you more comfortable to realize yourself that you don't need it.

France in general does a lot of things right. Their whole open source movement is amazing! Just take a look at https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome and their tools like https://cryptpad.fr/

And politically as well though I can't pinpoint it to an exact article. Just the general vibe I got from them and the decisions I saw.

Cool image slides! For my use case it is a bit too usage focused. I would like to find something that focuses a bit more on the "Not controlled by one" part and covering Lemmy, Bluesky, Mastodon, Pixelfed, Peertube and such. I like your presentation style though!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

The video is great and covers a lot of the information I would like to share, but it's sadly not professional enough for the use case I am thinking of. Still a great share! Thank you!

 

TL;DR: Please share links of public presentations about the Fediverse that provide an introduction to non-tech-savvy people showing the benefits and some examples like Lemmy.

Recently I have discovered Lemmy and with it the Fediverse - sure I heard of the Fediverse and Mastodon before, but I never really looked it up in detail, because it sounded like one of those projects that are really cool, but do not work because everyone keeps sticking to the big tech giants. However, now that I tried Lemmy for a couple of weeks, I feel like this does work and would like to spread the news a bit more.

For that I am looking for a nice set of slides that cover the Fediverse - and some examples like Lemmy - in such a way that students of different sciences can understand its purpose, advantages and disadvantages. I am aware that this is a bit low effort on my part as I could create such slides myself, but probably someone with more skill than me has done that already so...

EDIT: I just found https://u3acommunities.org/is-it-time-to-move-to-the-fediverse-followup/ which is very close to what I am looking for. Sadly, I can't find a download link for the slides to make some small edits (I feel like just using someone else's slides is fine as it is only for a private audience).

 

Decklist: https://archidekt.com/decks/13999945/be_basic

A friend of mine claimed that nonbasic land removal is not effective. As we primarily play bracket 3, I disagreed. He remained pretty sure so I proposed a challenge and created this deck which I will soon prox and play against him. I am aware that it is not technically bracket 3, but I think the power level wise it is still a better fit for 3 than 4.

The main idea is to get a strong recursion engine going which allows us to again and again remove their fancy nonbasic lands and putting cool stuff on the board that should allow me to win eventually. I am sure this is not a perfect build and I am open for suggestions :)

 

I know of the "Search" feature at the bottom and the "Local" "All" feature at the top - where local refers to the server you logged into.

However, to discover new communities, I like listing all the communities of a server, select a community to list all the posts and then take a look whether some posts are interesting. I could see using this to find communities I would like to subscribe to.

Am I just blind or is this core feature missing? In the web version this can be done by selecting a server>communities>select a community>go through the posts.
