They did mention in the video how cheap their solution is, which is likely s huge bonus for a cash strapped Ukraine trying to make every buck count. AA missiles might raise the cost downed per-drone to the point that it’s less viable than their… Stick the AR-15 out the cockpit method

Good point, that does seem like a viable option. Love the example you gave 😄

It’d take a lot of investment and time to design a new production line for a craft like that, and it’s not entirely clear yet whether there’s sufficient need for new production (since there seems to be an adequate amount of older applicable planes), or if they would become obsolete quickly or not from counter defenses.

By default, a piefed/Lemmy instance only knows of the existence of its own local communities. To see any off-instance communities in the search, they first have to initiate federation by a local user manually searching that community and/or subscribing to it.

Once the off-instance community has been federated by a single user, it will stay that way forever, and other users on your local instance will see it show up in the search as well.

There is an effort to automate that initial federation by Lemmy-federate, which creates a bot on participating instances to automatically subscribe to participating communities, but I’m not sure if piefed instances are compatible with it yet.

Even in that link, there are just as many people praising it as there are damning it, which is fairly common for all languages, due to how opinionated people can be on that subject.

Based on the fact that you’re downvoting all my comments in this thread, I would wager you are amongst those highly opinionated people 😅

No prob! Hope it works well for you ^^

I’ve personally never seen that sentiment toward Lua. It’s also used in Pico-8, and that’s quite well regarded.

If you want to make a 2D Zelda style game, there’s the Solaris engine, which is purpose built for that very task.

It’s open-source and completely free to use.

Muntedcrocodile: “I believe in the right to spread hatred as long as it’s not calling for violence.”

Lemmy: “Um, okay. Let’s give that a try. We hate hateful right wing views, and call people with those views total assholes.”

muntedcrocodile: “Wait, not like that! You should tolerate us so there’s a diversity of views!”

Ironic.

This is not a community to troubleshoot self hosting. Try making a post in !selfhosted@lemmy.world instead.

Lemmy allows a user to export their subscriptions, blocks, and saved posts /comments in a JSON file from their account settings page.

That file can then be imported into a new account on any other Lemmy (and even Piefed) instance.

You could use an ebike with a trailer attached.

After checking just now, it appears that it does! :D

Lemmy.world is already the largest instance, recommending it to more people seems like it’d just speedrun burnout like what happened to lemm.ee, not to mention centralization around .world goes against the philosophy of the fediverse.

That’s a good point. On a similar note, Programming.dev had pretty severe database breakage that took quite some time to fix, but thankfully both instances seem to be healthy and working well nowadays. :)

For lemm.ee users who will be migrating to new instances: You can export your subscriptions and blocks to import them to your new instance! You can export that info in your profile settings panel, and import it from the same page on your new instance.

General instances:

Sopuli.xyz is a great medium sized general purpose instance. Good admins that update to the latest Lemmy release consistently.

Lemmy.cafe could be another option if you’d prefer a smaller general purpose instance (to help spread the load and prevent the burnout that lemm.ee experienced) that’s also run by a solid admin.

Themed instances:

Retrolemmy.com - a cool place for retro tech/game enthusiasts

Literature.cafe - For book lovers and readers!

lemmy.dbzer0.com - fantastic instance for Anarchists and those who like to go Yarr! 🏴‍☠️

Programming.dev - For techies interested in programming and linux

Mander.xyz - Focused on Science and Nature

Lemmy.zip - PC Gaming and Tech focused

You can find more over at Lemmyverse.net

Piefed:

If you’re willing to try an entirely new way to interact with Lemmy and the threadiverse, consider giving Piefed.social a try, a completely independent project from Lemmy. It’s still a little behind in some ways, but also has a bunch of features that lemmy doesn’t. If you’re a community mod looking to migrate, Piefed apparently makes it particularly easy!

Also @1024_Kibibytes@lemm.ee

There’s definitely something going on. Whenever I add a Lemmy instance URL that isn’t obfuscated somehow, like replacing the periods with commas or (dot), then my comment gets no likes or responses, whereas a very similar comment in the same thread without a link does.

It seems to down rank it in the algorithim, if not outright shadow remove them.

There’s some good channels on TILVids and Kolektiva.media, and if you’re looking for something specific, Sepiasearch is able to search across all peertube instances.
