There’s lots of content on the Threadiverse that I find pointless or dumb, but that’s why I only subscribe to communities that interest me… If I feel like punishing myself, I go to /all 😂😁😘

2·1 month agoYou are literally the distributor of the games on Drop. You add the game installer to the Drop backend and from the client you and friends can run the installer. If there’s ever an update, you will have to replace the original game installer files with the new ones and then you and your friends can update the game on the Drop client.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Hetzner prices have skyrocketed (up to 3x); how will this affect your Fediverse server?English
0·3 months agoI host on my own hardware. Hopefully said hardware will continue to last for a long time.
This also calls for more optimisation from the developers, meaning less use of resources on the hardware.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What's your contingency plan for the apocalypse?English
71·3 months agoSay ww3 kicks off and power goes off - how are you keeping your servers up? Solar panels and batteries?
My servers run on a power station and then solar panels with a battery.
What if there’s a biblical flood and you dont have the means to build an arc? All your servers are destroyed beyond repair?
I have a boat.
What if you heard the Feds are coming to cart you and your servers away cos they suspect you of bad mouthing Emperor Tromp?
Don’t live in the US. Servers are encrypted and backed up off-site.
What if theres a war and Luxembourg (you know, the enemy) let’s of an EMP pulse that kills your servers and all the infrastructure (power, internet…). How do you access all those cherished pics on Immich?
It takes A LOT for an EMP to fry electronics. The most important pictures can be printed. Already have a lot of albums. Some of my pictures is stored on discs.
In an apocalypse or an emergency, none of this stuff really matters though. You are better of making sure you have enough food, water and shelter. In almost any event, your servers are just going to sit there, waiting to be turned on again, when hopefully everything is back to “normal”.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Using AI for image transcripts, yay or nay?English
0·3 months agoAlternatively, it’s built into the platform. So when someone uploads an image to Lemmy a local AI model does the description.
Edit: Then it could even be marked as AI generated and people could choose to be exposed to it or not.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Using AI for image transcripts, yay or nay?English
0·3 months agoNot sure you and the OP is on the same page? Or maybe I’m not.
OP is talking about alternative text for images, for people who can’t see. The alternative text is a description of the image. I’m not sure how you could achieve automated alternative text without AI?
If you are talking about OCR, even that is AI powered.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•PieFed Flagship Instance Shadowbanning Instances from Discoverability & Other Questionable UpdatesEnglish
0·4 months agoI must commend Lemmy.ml for remaining neutral and not letting its own political leanings influence [join-lemmy.org](https://join-lemmy.org/instances), while simultaneously condemn PieFed.social for this immature move that is harmful to the health of the Fediverse.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•PieFed Flagship Instance Shadowbanning Instances from Discoverability & Other Questionable UpdatesEnglish
0·4 months agojoin-lemmy.org and piefed.social is not the same thing. One is a page about software and the other is an instance. Why shouldn’t rimu be able to run piefed.social they way they see fit?
I am not seeing any political influence at join.piefed.social. join.piefed.social even links to the instance chooser of https://nord.pub/auth/instance_chooser

































Looks like it’s himself and some friends who are posting money in Omarchy. I thought he was just an asshole and racist, not transphobic?
