EPP group vows to revise combustion engine ban ‘as soon as possible’
  • Atalocke Atalocke 9mo ago 44%

    Nuclear is the only solution for sustainable energy production. Unless we somehow revolutionize power storage, there is no other renewable means for mass-scale energy production with as little environment impact as Nuclear.

    Solar at that scale would take up millions of acres only to be beaten by a rainy day. Wind turbines are notoriously unreliable, often don't last for very long, and can't be fully recycled. Not to mention they're ugly.

    All the rest depend on your countries natural resources, and often force countries out of energy independence.

    Nuclear is quick to develop (see parent comment source), safer than any other form of energy production, produces the least pollutants (see previous link), and takes up the smallest land area.

    It's pretty obvious that Nuclear is the future.

    That's pretty interesting, but the fact the developer offers a 2d Game above this kid of made it pointless to play. Like, there is no way I'd know that the green splash hurting me was a monster unless I looked at the other game assets.

  • Lemmy v0.19.0 Release - Instance blocking, Scaled sort, and Federation Queue
  • Atalocke Atalocke 10mo ago 100%

    Heads up, the new Lemmy update is very aggressive with system resources. Namely, lots of IDLE PG connections left over for no apparent reason. Make sure you adjust your docker-compose.yml accordingly

    It's interesting how the people from Meta are away of the *trust deficit* they're bringing to the Fediverse while still not being prepared to answer questions like, “All the openness with Threads, namely integration with the Fediverse, supporting account migration out from Threads etc, is the opposite of what Facebook/Meta has done over its history. What has fundamentally changed so that you now believe openness is the better strategy?” And: “In the past Facebook was a far more open system than it is today, you gradually locked it down. What guarantee is there that your bosses won’t follow the same playbook this time, even if you think they won’t?” I don't see threads.net being very influential in our forum-like slice of the Fediverse, seeing it is a Twitter-like competitor, but who's to say Reddit doesn't open up to federation in the future as a fresh and fun way to embrace and extinguish this little thorn in its side? Additionally, the concept of shared blacklists and some *centralized* moderation database for instances to subscribe too is ridiculous to consider. Though I have no negative opinion on blacklists in general, and thing sharing them between friendly instances makes sense, petitioning for some kind of global moderation is fighting for the very things so many of us made our instances to avoid. What're your thoughts?

  • Documentation: Documenting All The Things
  • Atalocke Atalocke 10mo ago 100%

    If you're writing, make sure you cover all the commands a user could run with your application. A good example for a command line app is explaining each command, its flags, and what they do. Similar to web apps with API endpoints, or the capabilities of any program with an UI. A good tool is VitePress. Both in documenting a tool and how to use it. Another good example for Developers is how Rust and Go offer documentation.

    I think it’s kinda cute. But I like bugs. It’s crazy how after so many years it was able to evolve into such a precise imitation.

  • Youtube Ads.

    I'm even worse. I just pay for YouTube Premium. It's pretty worth. I get a full music streaming service and no ads for $13. It's actually such a good deal, that I'm judging whether or not to permanently drop Spotify.

    Nothing gets me harder than exploiting technicalities. If they want to ban the cops, as useless as they are, let them!

  • Soon, I'll need to increase the storage capacity of my Lemmy server. I use a Digital Ocean VPS running Debian 11. I don't really need to increase the RAM, CPU, or other core system resources so I planning on adding some [block storage](https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/volumes/details/features/) to my VPS. My question is: How can I tell Lemmy/Pict-rs to store/retrieve new data here without losing my existing data? Assume the volume will be positioned on `/mnt/vol-1`. Thanks in advance!
