I think where you're messing up is making the assumption that the person will stick with "they" even after learning pronouns. Defaulting to they when a person doesn't know is just the smart, respectful play. As long as the person makes an honest effort to use the correct pronoun when corrected, that's all that can be asked.

The only problem with Telegram = IRC angle is that I can't scroll up in IRC to see what I missed throughout the day. I legitimately would love to switch my friend group to a self-hosted IRC server, but chat history is important.

Unironically, yes. LLM generated text is chock-full of em-dashes for some reason. I still use regular dashes to separate clauses occasionally - like this - but not full em-dashes.

This is an effort to kill anyone who isn't young and fit.

Or also chronically ill. I'm (relatively) young and very fit, but I'm also type 1 and require insulin to live. It's eugenics, plain and simple.

The third and fourth books actually start to introduce some really wild lore and world-building. Shame it was wasted on such a terrible main plot.

I hate to be that guy, but Ronnie Radke is a convicted murder accomplice and vocal transphobe. Which sucks, because I liked FiR :(

Strange, they do for me on Plasma Wayland.

Die a slow death from hyperglycemia once my pump runs out of insulin.

Infect the indigenous population with some god awful pathogen they have no defense against.

Die to a pathogen I have no defense against.

Die to the indigenous population due to being a white dude in pre-contact North America.

It uh... wouldn't be pretty.

A functional pancreas. Worked perfectly fine for 27 years, then my body just decided it was evil. Super neat.

I made my character in XCX a woman for the same reason. I'm a boring ass white straight cis dude. Games are a fantasy and escape from real life, maybe I wanna play as a chick or black guy or trans person or alien or something, fucking who gives a shit. I played Persona 5, and I wasn't mad that I'm not actually a 16-year-old Japanese boy.

Well sure, but that doesn't seem to be working.

 

My instance (frozeninferno.xyz) seems not to be federating properly with mander.xyz.

Looking at https://lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz/c/[email protected] it appears that the newest posts are from 4 months ago, however, looking at https://mander.xyz/c/herpetology there have been some more recent than that.

What can I do to fix this? And how can I check if federation is working properly with other instances?

Thanks.

That's not the only thing you said. You also implied emulation is only used for piracy, and then got rude and condescending when people rebutted your statement.

 

I'm planning on building a workstation with the 7955WX, but I can't find it for sale anywhere except sketchy CPU resellers and eBay.

But I can buy a Lenovo ThinkStation P8 with one, and that honestly seems like the better deal after pricing out a custom build. I'd be bringing an AMD 6800 XT and an Nvidia 3070 Ti over, so no GPU required.

Thoughts or advice?

Maintenance complete! (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)
 

All of the primary Lemmy services have been updated as part of this maintenance.

PosgreSQL database: 15 -> 16
pict-rs image repository: 0.4 -> 0.5
Lemmy: 0.19.3 -> 0.19.5

Also, as part of the migration, the pict-rs image repository's backend has been migrated from its internal sled-repo database to the shared PostgreSQL database, which will simplify backup and recovery in the future.

Please report any issues on this post or a new post in [email protected].

Thanks for your patience as we work to improve your Lemmy experience.

 

We'll be taking the instance down for maintenance at 4PM UTC on Saturday 9 August. Use this to convert to your local time.

The instance will be upgraded to Lemmy 0.19.5, which requires upgrading several other services Lemmy relies on.

The maintenance window will be 5 hours

 

We ran into some unexpected issues upgrading the instance to the latest Lemmy version, and troubleshooting was starting to take too long and extend past the previously given maintenance window. As such, we decided to restore from backup and attempt the upgrade again another day, next time with a larger maintenance window.

Everything should be back as it was before the downtime. The next maintenance will be announced soon.

Thanks for your patience!

I found MoonDeck while perusing the Decky plugin store and it's absolutely awesome. I've had Moonlight and Sunshine set up for a while because Steam streaming is very inconsistent between Deck and Linux, but I didn't use it often because it's a pain setting up launchers in Sunshine for each individual game. MoonDeck takes the hassle out of that completely, and I find myself streaming GPU-intensive games to my living room much more often nowadays.

I highly recommend it!

 

I was looking through various RCON tools and found this. Someone does not like commit messages.

 

Also, the location on the LinkedIn job listing was a city nearby, even though I'm over 300 miles from SF. Fuckin' dumb.

GBA core with RTC? (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)
 

I've searched around, but the only GBA core that seems to exist is spiritualized's, which doesn't have RTC support and hasn't had a release in over a year. I was actually under the impression that RTC support in cores wasn't possible, but then budude2 just released his GB/GBC core that does have RTC support. So now I'm wondering if it's possible for GBA.

I ask because I play a ton of Pokemon ROM hacks that take advantage of time changes, and it would be nice to have some of the core features of the Pocket. For example, sleep/wake doesn't work for Everdrives, and save states / memories are iffy.

Maintenance complete! (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)
 

The storage backend for the instance has been upgraded, which means the instance should be faster by quite a bit. It also enables a few new data resiliency features, which is pretty cool. Hopefully we don't need them, but better safe than sorry!

Please report any issues on this post or a new post in [email protected].

Thanks for your patience as we work to improve your Lemmy experience.

 

We'll be taking the instance down for maintenance at 6PM UTC on Friday, 22 Dec. Use this to convert to your local time.

This maintenance is due to a much-needed storage upgrade, which will hopefully speed up the instance quite a bit. The maintenance window will be 3 hours to account for full system backup and restore, but I'm hoping we'll be done quicker than that.
