  • I guess I'm out of the loop, why is Blogspot blocked?

    Can you message me with the link? I can look into it from the admin side. You may need to chop it up into parts if the instance is blocking it:

    example . com

  • A different calendar app might have something better

    If you have a common pattern, you could create a custom calendar with that pattern. For example, if you always want 3 reminders for this schedule:

    • 10 minutes before
    • 1 hour before
    • 12 hours before

    You can make a calendar with that preset, and then for any events that need that pattern, you set it to that calendar

  • What did you make the chart with? It's nice for something done on mobile

  • I believe Waymo has a better set of sensors (Lidar + Radar+ Cameras instead of just cameras), more processing power, and more research / time / resources spent on it compared to Tesla.

    So it's not that we aren't ready for self driving taxis, but rather about which cars are ready to provide that service

  • I found this: https://mastodon.social/@dansup/114562535059130491

    Bold

    • Custom Feeds, Kits, Groups

    Beautiful

    • HDR, Masonry layouts, Portfolios 2.0, Collections 2.0

    Better

    • Client caching (faster UX + reduced backend load), Accessibility/i18n, SPA or SSR, WebPush

    The new @pixelfed webUI is amazing, and I didn't even mention the new photography features πŸ‘€

    We'll be testing the beta on a pixelfed.social subdomain next week, and yes, you can too.

    So it looks like groups functionality is coming up, and it is separate from collections, which is getting a redesign. I'll have to investigate exactly what those new changes are, but it is exciting regardless!

  • That's a good point, it looks like one of the other admins has locked the extra post and redirected users to the post with more votes. In the future I'll do something similar based on which one was posted first

  • Do you have a cat cafe or shelter/rescue nearby?

    It's not the same thing, but it might quench your thirst somewhat

  • There are a few self hosted dead man's switches which might work in this case.

    Easiest might be to give passwords to a trusted friend with technical experience and a list of the important things that you want done.

  • The "crosspost" label is more of a flag that there is another post with the same URL somewhere. If I posted the same article in a community multiple times, it would have multiple "crosspost" labels for that community. I agree that this could be done in a better way

    I assume there was a bug or loading issue where the user posted this post twice. Maybe their app thought it didn't go through the first time and tried posting it again.

    Since there is discussion on both posts, I might leave them both?

  • A big part of this site's pitch to its clients, including the "hyperscale" customers with gigantic data centers nearby, is that each device is labeled, tracked, and inventoried for its drivesβ€”both obvious and hiddenβ€”and is either securely wiped or destroyed. The process, commonly called ITAD, is used by larger businesses, especially when they upgrade fleets of servers or workers' devices. ITAD providers ensure all the old gear is wiped clean, then resold, repurposed, recycled, or destroyed.

  • I don't have a preference personally. The only issue would be if you make a whole bunch of posts all back to back (5+), that could flood someone's chronological feed.

    Individual images spaced out, grouped posts, all fine by me :)

    Also, does anyone know how to get them to show up in a Lemmy community, or what that'll look like? How do "Collections" factor into it? @pixelfed

    I'm not sure about collections, but there's supposed to be a groups feature in the works.

    In the meantime, I'd recommend you make a Lemmy post with one or all the images, and link your Pixelfed account/post somewhere

  • There's a quote along the lines of "User error is not a thing, the system allowed for the error through bad design"

    Which can be true depending on how far you stretch it. I'd say that if a chunk of the user base is having a problem, it's a design problem
