why lemmy.fmhy.ml was down for a day and the changes made after that
  • I remember phpBB having a popular emoticon addon, or maybe arcade addon, that ended up compromising a few of the message boards I frequented in the early 00s. Times never change.

  • lemmy.fmhy.ml now runs on v0.18!
  • Is being unable to change your email address part of the settings you're speaking of? I get "This server hasn't correctly set up email." when I try to change the email address in my profile settings.

  • How do you feel about bots automatically reposting content from Reddit onto Lemmy?
  • I'm probably just a loon and making a mountain out of a molehill, but this type of automation bothers me. Whoever sets it up can easily script with bias to filter out content they personally disagree with. I understand humans do this naturally without botting, but making it automated changes the speed and reach to a degree I'm not comfortable engaging with.

  • Direct download sites and safety?
  • Real debrid is not necessary unless you're downloading from hosts that require a paid account for unlimited access. You can download from archive.org and other HTTP sites without worry. You don't need tor, a vpn, real debrid, a seed box, or any other paid service people are suggesting here. Just stay away from torrents and you'll be fine.

  • Direct download sites and safety?
  • As an aside, it is technically possible to disable uploading/sharing when using torrents though it is generally frowned upon.

    The whole "no seed no problem" thing is a myth. Connecting to the torrent in any way exposes your IP to whoever is monitoring it.

  • DnD Beyond
  • I'm unfortunately unfamiliar with DnD tools, but there are a couple users on Soulseek who are sharing a variety of DnD tools. It looks like they all came from the same torrent (I don't have the torrent, sorry :< ).

    Does anything here look useful? - https://i.ibb.co/Y30rv2y/resources.png

  • What types of loud music do you tend to favor?

    So... What types of loud music do you tend to favor?

    Anything fast and silly wins me over, and that usually comes from Powerviolence or Grindcore. Spazz, Ratbomb, Excrementory Grindfuckers, Romantic Gorilla, Charles Bronson, etc. anything that promotes unabashed hyper fun.

    Punk also has a very special place in my heart. I grew up in the california punk scene of the 90's and it really impacted how I view the world and approach situations. Dead Kennedys, Antischism, Crass, Black Flag, Subhumans, etc. we all know the bands lol.

    (unrelated sidenote: i can't reply to this post here in Noise - https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/post/212141 - I get the eternal circle of loading when I try to reply. weird. it's an awesome album though!)

    Hopefully folk-punk is welcome

    Is etsy worth starting a shop on or are there better places?
  • I'm not sure how your area is, but CRT TV's are starting to gain popularity for retro gaming and they're all over the sides of the roads in some places, especially right after Christmas. They generally just need a fuse replaced to work, which is a really simple and cheap issue to solve. I dunno the logistics of shipping those monsters, but if you sell locally it probably wouldn't be an issue.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • It's likely whenever things break, which is relatively frequent... Here's to hoping the 0.18 update brings a little more stability!

  • The way this guy has interpreted the lyrics has replaced the actual lyrics in my head

  • What game did you purchase because of the aesthetics but barely or never played?
  • Alan Awake. I finally got around to playing it recently and something about the camera movement/placement turned me off. Dead Space has the same issue for me.

    Sorta related, I bought Clive Barkers Undying twice (at different stores) without realizing it. One of the copies I left in the bag and stuck it in a closet for whatever reason. It was an awesome game though. I've played through it several times now.

  • What are the best free games for a low end pc?
  • Speaking of GB emulators and Pokémon, PokeMMO is a free cross-platform MMORPG that utilizes several Pokémon ROMs and emulation. It's really awesome to explore the games with loads of other people.

  • What are the best free games for a low end pc?
  • If you're looking for something a little spicy in the visual novels/adventure/multi-choices/text based/indie/rpg genres, a great NSFW resource is F95zone. They have all of those genres and more.

  • Upvote Counts Change Rapidly
  • I'm pretty sure it's a lemmy issue. I was in a thread that jumped from 2 to 250+ while I was replying. Refreshing the page brought it back to 2. This platform isn't the most stable or fleshed out yet.

  • You can teleport someone to the modern day and only show them one gaming platform and one game
  • 1991, Arcade, The Simpsons. Because I miss that experience so much!

    Really though, I'd pick the PS2 and God of War. It's easy enough on the controls, the theatrics and scale are still super impressive, and everyone feels awesome chopping up hoards of stuff.

    What about you, OP?

  • ...
  • I have downvotes visible on revanced for android.

  • YouTube tests blocking videos unless you disable ad blockers
  • Unfortunately not at the moment. I was using https://github.com/gorhill/uBO-Extra before it went defunct and I haven't replaced it.

  • YouTube tests blocking videos unless you disable ad blockers
  • Lol, well it's not like a lot of us aren't already using adblock detector blockers.

    It will probably come down to using a third party program/script to watch videos.

  • Wiki FAQ
  • Is a file request community allowed if it follows the instance guidelines?

    Is it possible to customize a community to auto-lock threads once they're created, so no one can reply to the thread? Or disable the ability to reply to threads in some other way?

    I dunno how close to toeing the line a request section would be, or how easy it would be to enforce the instance rules without disabling the ability to reply to threads.

  • Electronic Frontier Foundation shouted out Lemmy, Kbin, and Mastodon in their Reddit coverage today: What Reddit Got Wrong
  • It can be really hard to push past this as well. i2p has been trying for a long time with very little success.
