This isn’t an actual accession to the EU though is it? Rather just Moldova altering its constitution to reflect an eventual desire to join?

That’s because these anti immigrant views aren’t supported by data, or logic, or common sense. It’s not like Americans are lining up to do the jobs immigrants are taking. The US can’t function as a society today without those immigrants. But the right just wants to coddle its racist base with “brown man bad”.

I feel like the decentralization brings some downsides in the quantity of bad actors, extremist views, and the like.
The open platform certainly has an overwhelming advantage over Reddit in other ways, but there seems to be a higher number of trolls, shitheads, wackos, etc and in some cases entire instances dedicated to them.
While these people get banned on Reddit, Lemmy hasn’t yet solved this moderation issue; user accounts are basically disposable and moderation is super distributed, so it’s easy to abuse.

For the longest time I thought I hallucinated this movie in a fever dream or something. I must have seen it as a kid back in the nineties. But it makes so little sense that I guess I thought I imagined it lol. Watched it like a month back and uh, it might as well have been a fever dream hallucination lmfao

Okay, but I mean, 60 million versus 30 thousand. The former is effectively “infinite”, I mean how many hours would it take you to walk that far?

You should consider writing a long form post about your experience doing this. I’m sure I am not the only one interested in an account of living off the grid in this way.

Did they ever fix the game having a maximum map size of like 10.000 by 10.000? That limitation always seemed to put it at a disadvantage compared to Minecraft, for larger communities

Yes you can run windows games fairly easily on Mac and Linux these days but it’s never quite as good as a native build.

There’s CrossOver on Mac which works pretty well for most titles too. Not as good as proton but let’s say 75% there. But you might be right that the success of proton is disincentivizing developers from targeting either. Still disappointing though as a game like this is an ideal candidate for Mac and Linux, compared to some AAA title.

Makes me sad to see it’s Windows only given it’s so graphically simple and low tech. Should be a shoe-in for a Mac and Linux version.
Edit: yes I know proton exists, my point is that as an indie game it is likely built with something like Unity or Godot, and thus exporting a native Mac and Linux build is just a matter of turning on a couple check boxes.

Good news though. Israel can avoid a war if it wants. All it has to do is stop waging its current war.

Is there an equivalent to doing /u/user in The Bad Place, to notify and summon someone?
Do you like old fashioneds, and wine? This is the drink for you! I can't remember now where I got the idea, but I've been making them forever. ---- 2-3 shots Bourbon whiskey (personal favourite: Jefferson's Reserve, the gentle alcohol notes but strong wood flavours blend gracefully into the wine notes!) 1 - 1.5 shots' worth of tawny port (don't need anything too good here but a basic 10 year Graham's or similar will do) 1 teaspoon simple syrup (take it easy on this since the Port itself will impart sweetness!) 1 big ass ice cube 1 maraschino cherry
I'm a fan of custom and unique twists on cocktails; and if you're reading this, hopefully you are too! Let's move beyond the typical basic stuff and discuss more interesting recipes that have a special place in your heart, particularly if you've concocted them yourself, or put a twist on them.

Just thought I'd share this since it's working for me at my home instance of federate.cc, even though it's not documented in the Lemmy hosting guide. The image server used by Lemmy, pict-rs, recently added support for *object storage* like Amazon S3, instead of serving images directly off the disk. This is potentially interesting to you because object storage is orders of magnitude cheaper than disk storage with a VM. By way of example, I'm hosting my setup on Vultr, but this applies to say Digital Ocean or AWS as well. **Going from a 50GB to a 100GB VM instance on Vultr will take you from $12 to $24/month. Up to 180GB, $48/month.** Of course these include CPU and RAM step-ups too, but I'm focusing only on disk space for now. Vultr's object storage by comparison is **$5/month for 1TB of storage** and includes a separate 1TB of bandwidth that doesn't count against your main VM, plus this content is served off of Vultr's CDN instead of your instance, meaning even less CPU load for you. This is pretty easy to do. What we'll be doing is diverging slightly from the [official Lemmy ansible setup](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible) to add some different environment variables to pict-rs. After step 5, **before running the ansible playbook**, we're going to modify the ansible template slightly: `cd templates/` `cp docker-compose.yml docker-compose.yml.original` Now we're going to edit the docker-compose.yml with your favourite text editor, personally I like `micro` but `vim`, `emacs`, `nano` or whatever will do.. `favourite-editor docker-compose.yml` Down around line 67 begins the section for `pictrs`, you'll notice under the `environment` section there are a bunch of things that the Lemmy guys predefined. We're going to add some here to take advantage of [the new support for object storage in pict-rs 0.4+](https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/#user-content-filesystem-to-object-storage-migration): At the bottom of the `environment` section we'll add these new vars: - PICTRS__STORE__TYPE=object_storage - PICTRS__STORE__ENDPOINT=Your Object Store Endpoint - PICTRS__STORE__BUCKET_NAME=Your Bucket Name - PICTRS__STORE__REGION=Your Bucket Region - PICTRS__STORE__USE_PATH_STYLE=false - PICTRS__STORE__ACCESS_KEY=Your Access Key - PICTRS__STORE__SECRET_KEY=Your Secret Key So your whole `pictrs` section looks something like this: https://pastebin.com/X1dP1jew The actual bucket name, region, access key and secret key will come from your provider. If you're using Vultr like me then they are under the details after you've created your object store, under Overview -> S3 Credentials. On Vultr your endpoint will be something like sjc1.vultrobjects.com, and your region is the domain prefix, so in this case sjc1. Now you can install as usual. **If you have an existing instance already deployed, [there is an additional migration command you have to run to move your on-disk images into the object storage.](https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/#filesystem-to-object-storage-migration)** You're now good to go and things should pretty much behave like before, except `pict-rs` will be saving images to your designated cloud/object store, and when serving images it will instead redirect clients to pull directly from the object store, saving you a lot of storage, cpu use and bandwidth, and therefore money. Hope this helps someone, I am not an expert in either Lemmy administration nor Linux sysadmin stuff, but I can say I've done this on [my own instance at federate.cc](https://federate.cc) and so far I can't see any ill effects. Happy Lemmy-ing!

Not sure if this is truly an issue with lemmy.world or just a general question about Lemmy, or maybe even my own instance, but this seems a fair place to start. [On my home instance, for some reason all subscriptions to @lemmy.world communities are perpetually stuck as “Subscribe Pending”, and I notice that not all of the posts and content have shown up.](https://lemmy.federate.cc/communities?listingType=All&page=1) Is this something that should “eventually” resolve itself, or is there some action I should take on my end as the instance administrator? Thanks/apologies in advance.
Absolutely loving the app so far, and I'm impressed by the rollout speed, seems like every time I launch it, there's a new build with more feature completion. Keep up the amazing work!!
