Is there any way to connect the bsky android app to the atproto.africa relay or a third party appview that uses the atproto.africa relay? I wouldn’t mind using bsky more if there was a clone of the android app that doesn’t use the bsky relay/appview. Looking at whtwnd it appears to be just web and not native apps?

I would like to host my own PDS and access bsky through a native app using third party relay+appview, but I haven’t seen a way to do this yet.

manhunt is currently underway (…) a man pretending to be a police officer (…) white man with brown hair wearing black body armor over a blue shirt and blue pants.

So the suspect description is basically a white cop

Lmao

I’m not sure if you realize, but the meme responses are to bump the post activity and increase visibility. I’ve personally fulfilled a handful of requests there and often the op doesn’t update the post, which I personally don’t care about - people are struggling and I’m happy to chip in. As it happens, I’ve given to this particular user twice.

Some foreign language communities don’t seem to have their language marked so they still show up despite my language settings, so I blocked them to make things easier.

Yes this and also scrubs and smart tests. I have 6 14TB spinning drives and a long smart test takes roughly a week, so running 2 at a time takes close to a month to do all 6 and then it all starts over again, so for half to 75% of the time, 2 of my drives are doing smart tests. Then there’s scrubs which I do monthly. I would consider larger drives if it didn’t mean that my smart/scrub schedule would take more than a month. Rebuilds aren’t too bad, and I have double redundancy for extra peace of mind but I also wouldn’t want that taking much longer either

Right, but this does have communities - they’re just called workspaces. The screenshot literally shows the equivalent to a Discord “server”. You’re getting confused by the correct usage of the term servers because this project doesn’t have backend servers

I’ve been pretty happy with rsync.net, with the promo rate I’m on I get 1.6TB for $10/mo. More than enough for backing up my most important files, private keys, camera roll, anything irreplaceable.

The rest of my NAS is 50TB of movies and shows so I’ve just resigned myself to the fact that it will never be affordable to backup more than my user folder.

It’s worth noting that Discord misuses the term “server” to mean a community. When you create a Discord “server”, they aren’t booting up a machine just for you. So the lack of servers in this project has nothing to do with the ability to create groups of channels with shared moderators that represents a community.

Sure here’s one I found of a Mastodon user making a post in a Lemmy community, they also comment so you can see how that looks as well:

https://feddit.org/post/12492506

Conveniently the post is about how interoperability between Lemmy / mastodon works haha

So if I post a meme to c/tenforward, people on mastodon and pixelfed can see it if they subscribe to @tenforward, is that correct?

Yep! I’m not sure how it works for pixelfed but I think I remember something about text posts so I would assume it works the same there.

Afaik the way to tell if a user is on Mastodon vs Lemmy/mbin/etc is if the instance part of their username is a path instead of a bare domain, it’s something like user@instance.com/users or something that includes “user” in the path, I can’t remember exactly and I can’t find an example but if you look at usernames enough you’ll find one.

Edit: Actually maybe that changed because I found a comment from Mastodon and it looks normal just with a domain that you can see is a mastodon instance when you visit it, so idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Edit 2: I double checked in the sync app and it looks like users from mastodon show up as someone@instance.com/users/someone so it looks like it’s a UI specific thing

It all just depends on whether it makes sense or not, and also whether the developers of each software coordinated to make it translate.

Like you point out, text posts don’t exist on a video platform (at least if you’re not counting youtube community posts), so peertube devs didn’t write any code to receive or display them.

How you get stuff to show up also depends on the platform, but I believe most will do it if you search the account handle of the account on the other service - so you can follow a peertube account from mastodon by searching @account@example.com and then it starts showing newly posted videos in your feed.

Since all the translations are decided by the devs of each software, some of it is a little funky - like IIRC lemmy communities are displayed in Mastodon as an account that you can follow, and each post to the community is a post on that account (or maybe it’s boosted by that account, I can’t remember), so if you follow the “community account” from Mastodon, you will start seeing new posts in your Mastodon feed, and can reply to the comments by replying to the post. You can also post to the community from Mastodon by mentioning the community at the beginning of a Mastodon post, and I think it will boost it.

It’s kinda weird IMO - I get the feeling a lot of posts from Mastodon in Lemmy communities might be made by accident because it often looks like the Mastodon user was just trying to tag an organization (like tagging @Plex or @Netflix to complain about their software or something) and then saw the account suggestion from Lemmy and didn’t realize they would be posting to a community instead of tagging an individual.

Since you want to avoid supports and cleanup, what I would do is modify the model to flatten out the inside of the dome. You can do it easily in most slicers by adding a cylinder part and squishing it until it’s more like a disc.

A flat roof to the inside of the dome will cause it to switch to bridging for that section which won’t be perfect but will be a lot better than stringing, especially if you play around with thick bridges.

My xbone controllers don’t have BT so I use this for the wireless dongle.

Aiui, back-feeding uncurated slop is a real problem. But curated slop is fine. So they can either curate slop or scrape websites, which is almost free. So even though synthetic training data is fine, they still prefer to scrape websites because it’s easier / cheaper / free.

What model size did you run on your laptop? I have an Intel Nuc with an i7 and I run various models on CPU (it doesn’t have a dedicated GPU) and while I can’t run stuff larger than ~14b or so, models up to around ~7b aren’t too slow. If I try to run a 32b then I get a similar experience to you. I tend not to go below 4b because that’s when it starts being dumb and not following instructions well, so just depends on how complex your task is.

Immich is pretty good for this if you take pictures at each location. It has a global map that shows all your photos with a heatmap-style display and a drawer that shows a grid of the photos within your viewport as you can and zoom around. It doesn’t seem like you can view a specific album on the map currently but you can at least filter the map to favorites or a date range.

I think you can use Immich external libraries for this, also to be extra safe you can just mount your external images folder as read only by adding :ro to the docker volume mount so that the container won’t be able to modify anything as a precaution.

The !mutual_aid@hexbear.net community seems similar to what you’re asking for. I’m not sure if there are more similar comms on other instances but that’s just the one I know of.
