What Mastodon server are you on?
  • smolgumball smolgumball Now 0%

    I'm over at https://mastodon.gamedev.place and enjoy it a ton.

    There are a number of prolific game designers as well as tons of indie devs sharing knowledge + life updates. A very cozy instance without any hateful BS.

  • FYI: You all know lemmy.world (instance) is consistently failing to send to other instances, right?
  • smolgumball smolgumball Now 100%

    Also keep in mind that defederating (blocked instances) will prevent posts and comments from syncing between instances as well.

    You can see blocked instances on lemmy.world here: https://lemmy.world/instances

  • What is your favorite way to spend money?
  • smolgumball smolgumball Now 100%

    Yooo nice. Speaking of which have you found any good fashion / fit sharing communities on lemmy/kbin/masto? Most of what I find is just "look at this celeb wearing Dior" and I am fr yawning

    I feel you. I have written browser automation scripts to press "I am not interested in this ad" buttons for me it gets so bad 💀

  • I've found Patreon to be really rewarding (hidden gems in the game modding space, music producers, technologists + tinkerers of all kinds), but am curious about the vast number of other creators out there. #### Do you have any favorites or even just a list of folks you support on Patreon or kofi?

    Over my life, I've noticed that my expenses for living fall into one of three buckets: 1. Exciting buys 1. Wise purchases 1. Necessary costs But I'm mostly curious about that first one... #### What is your favorite kind of exciting buy? My exciting buy might be a new musical instrument even though I have plenty, a new video game, purchasing art, a vacation, a luxurious meal, etc. And less on the fun side of things, my other categories would shake out like: - A wise buy might be investing in a house or business, putting money away for savings, or spending a premium on [a BuyItForLife kind of purchase](https://sh.itjust.works/c/buyitforlife) to avoid buying a new one every year. - A necessary buy is probably the same as most others: housing costs, utilities, clothing, household goods, food, transportation, etc.

  • Bootstrap Themes with Ansible Install
  • smolgumball smolgumball Now 100%

    According to the docs, there should be a lemmy-ui folder that was created by the Ansible install. Within that folder, the app is set up to search for an extra_themes folder by default.

    For native installation (without Docker), themes are loaded by lemmy-ui from ./extra_themes folder. A different path can be specified with LEMMY_UI_EXTRA_THEMES_FOLDER environment variable.

    Digging into the docker-compose.yml file used by the Ansible playbook, it looks like this is where extra themes directory is mapped into the lemmy-ui service.

    I'm using Gitea and it's been wonderful.

    • I run it as a Windows service - I know I know, I should containerize it 😄

  • smolgumball smolgumball Now 100%

    Absolutely no way Star Citizen isn't a massive scam. I mean, people can be incompetent, but

    over $580 million

    ...seems like it has to be some kind of upper limit of incompetence?

  • Music Publishers Sue Twitter for $250 Million, Asserting Copyright Infringement
  • smolgumball smolgumball Now 50%

    Does this basically come down to "Twitter doesn't want to spend the compute to fingerprint media uploads?"

    I know that's been a massive cost sink for YouTube with their Content ID technology, and I don't imagine Elbow is in a hurry to burn even more money at the moment.

    Have always had a huge soft spot for [Neocities](https://neocities.org/browse?sort_by=followers), happy to see it getting some time in the news. I [made this dumb game _years ago_](https://wingwing.neocities.org/) and it somehow is just still there, being a weird HTML game on Neocities.
