Any Le Creuset fans?
  • I'm slowly trying to build up my collection. While I like the benefits of cast iron, I know I'll slip up and not be able to maintain one. Then enameled cast iron swoops in with bright colors to the rescue.

  • Raspberry Pi Used To Hijack Casino Card Shuffler
  • I do like that solution. The problem is than a ton of casinos have it. So the actual fix is more of a retrofit than a redesign to change where the USB is, which would require a recall.

  • Raspberry Pi Used To Hijack Casino Card Shuffler
  • Without revealing too much about myself, this was identified before the hacker convention and is already being fixed.

  • Light Bulbs and Your Mouth: A Cautionary Tale
  • I don't understand why this is so tempting. It's clearly dangerous and even says not to do it.

    Anyways, my mouth is ever slightly too small for one to accidentally slip in. But I could probably force it and not have the ability to crunch a plastic LED bulb to get it out.

    Canvas Logo

    If you haven't heard, there as a Lemmy version of /r/Place this weekend called Canvas.

    There was a bit of furry art (and a ton of Bronies), but I didn't see Pawb.social represented, so I decided to draw the logo.

    Shoutout to @ArieTheFloof and @KoboldCoterie for jumping in to help!

    no, david
  • But it's little Bill Cosby. Would you kill little baby Hitler?

  • 1.4.0 New Feature: Properties
  • Sure, I do something similar. I have a note for a person and I have a note for a recurring meeting. In a recurring meeting I have a Dataview field called Host.

    #Meeting
    This is my meeting note
    
    Host:: [[John Doe]] 
    

    In a Person note, I have a section for meetings the person hosts. I use Dataview to search for the Host field and see of it matches the current Person note.

    #Person
    This is John Doe's note.
    
    # Meetings
    
    dataview
    table without ID file.link AS "Meeting"
    from #Meeting
    where contains(Host, this.file.link)
    
    

    The new Properties feature sounds like it'll be what Dataview fields are. Except now it'll be in a native interface where I can easily change the information about the note.

  • 1.4.0 New Feature: Properties
    mas.to Obsidian (@obsidian@mas.to)

    Attached: 1 image Introducing Properties. A simple way to add tags, aliases, dates, and even link between notes. As always, the metadata is stored durably in plain text files local to your device. Obsidian 1.4.0 is now available for early access 💜 https://obsidian.md/changelog/2023-07-26-deskt...

    Obsidian (@obsidian@mas.to)

    Obsidian 1.4.0 is currently in early access and it introduces Properties!

    This is a game changer for me! I've had to use Dataview and other plug-ins to achieve something similar, so I look forward to the native support.

    See Sonic Prime yet? Did you like it? Will you watch it?
  • I saw the first season when it first released and I'm generally enjoying it.

    I get it's a kids show and Sonic stories are loosely connected, but I'm finding Sonic himself being too...reckless and unexperienced for where he should be. Like it felt like it took way too long for him to realize it's a multiverse situation and couldn't just snap Nine into remembering him.

  • Nomad Complex is being sunset :(
  • Oh no! I had just heard of Nomad Complex a few weeks ago and got a couple shirts.

    47% jump in warehouse rental in Vancouver...yikes. I'm hoping they're able to clear out enough stock before their lease ends. Then resume if they're able to come up with a long term plan.

  • The dominance of cat content VS dog content on Lemmy reflects its current techie userbase
  • I could see there being a correlation between cat owners and techies. How strong of a correlation though? We'll need a study for that.

    And I'll have you know I have ferrets. Which some call cat snakes.

  • They may not have ruled, but they certainly rocked.
  • Stupid dinosaurs can't even make a rudimentary "might makes right" dictatorship. Even lions can do that.

  • Furry... No More! (by Pecas)
  • This is the way. You are only allowed to reveal your face in the dressing room.

    And while you are allowed to remove your head in a hotel room, one must not do so in the presence of the 9 other fursuiters wrestling on the beds vying for control of the Darksaber.

  • Markdown 101: Your guide to markdown in pawb.social mastodon instances
  • Aw yeah, markdown!

    Browser works as expected. Hopefully the apps start fully supporting it. Didn't look like it worked on the Mastodon app. Jerboa and Connect didn't render superscript, and underline appeared as italic.

    H6 looks like...

    Every so slightly bold normal font.

    ####### Stops at h7

  • tf💊irl
  • Haha, yeah! Saw it was posted by a fellow Pawb user and thought surely it must've been posted here first.

  • As some of you may know, Yuji Naka was arrested for insider trading. He was just sentenced to 2.5 years in prison, 4 years of probation, and the equivalent of $1.2 million in fines.

    Introducing my ferrets to the fediverse. Left to right: Bandit, Smokie, Jasper, Lilith
  • Ferrets are such amazing pets! I have 2 myself and sometimes think if I should expand their business, but they're already such a handful.

  • Colors, localized.
  • Quatre-vingts-dix-neuf! 🤣

    Or as my American-ass says, "Cat vank deez noofs."

  • The Password Game
  • Oh this is hilarious! I could accept each absurd rule up until I had to play Wordle, then I called it quits. But I kinda want to continue and see how high it goes.

    Edit: Now stuck on chess

    Edit 2: Oh no! I panic deleted during the fire.

  • New Lemmy app "Connect for Lemmy"
  • Same. I'm using a Surface Duo 2 and I saw a 1 star review for a Z Flip with a startup crash. So I think it's an issue with nonstandard screen ratios/resolutions.

    I made a post on it in the app's community. May want to post there so the developer knows.

  • Crash on Startup - Foldable Phone

    I downloaded the app (Version 1.0.38), but unfortunately it immediately crashes when launching.

    I'm using a Surface Duo 2 running Android 12. I saw a 1 star review in the Google Play Store saying they used a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 and had the same issue.

    So I'm thinking it might have to do with foldable phones or at least non-standard screen aspect ratios or resolutions.

  • I think there's one important question we haven't covered yet. Do you also need to limit the amount you fart?

    Because that could affect food choice. Or is that not a factor and you'll be able to discretely let loose somewhere?

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Does that work for (a good portion of the population) who are lactose intolerant?

  • To anyone that misses Reddit Slide; I may have a present for you soon
  • Same. Slide was sooo good that I was sad to see it abandoned. Joey comes really close and I'd like to see that developer give Lemmy a shot.

  • G4 vs G5 Opinions

    Hey everypony!

    Back when Friendship is Magic came out I very much enjoyed it. Not a surprise seeing as I was part of the primary target audience...a college aged man.

    I have not watched any of Gen 5. Honest opinions. How's it compare to Gen 4?

    Fediverse Single Sign On

    I think I joined the Fediverse misunderstanding how it works. I went in under the belief that:

    • Under the hood, everything is an ActivityPub post
    • Lemmy, Mastodon, PixelFed, and PeerTube are "interfaces" or "views" for the underlying ActivityPub post
    • All 4 can interact with eachother
    • I only need 1 account

    For the last point I found out that the answer is "yes...but actually no."

    Based on the "ActivityPub Magic" thread (or Mastodon Post?), I see that Mastodon users can reply to the Lemmy thread (with some limitations) and follow Communities. Cool.

    I see a Lemmy thread and a Mastodon post as serving 2 different purposes. Sometimes they overlap. But maybe I want to post something on my Mastodon timeline just for something general going on in my life that I don't necessarily want to post into a Lemmy community. Now let's say I started with a Lemmy account.

    Unless I'm wrong, the only way to make that post would be to make a Mastodon account that's seperate from my existing Lemmy account.

    I thought part of the beauty of the Fediverse was that someone could be following "me" and choose whatever "interface" they want. Instead it looks like they would be following "me@Lemmy", "me@Mastodon", "me@PixelFed", and "me@PeerTube".

    And then there's the whole defederation of instances maybe requiring multiple accounts, but that's another topic. Now, to be clear I do see the use case of having multiple accounts for different instances (e.g. having a furry account and a general one).

    Is there a roadmap for "merging" accounts between platforms? I understand that question might be more towards Lemmy/Mastodon/etc. developers than server admins, but just seeing if anyone here knows.

    If you're not familiar with Peter Knetter, he's primarily a Sonic YouTuber. While a lot of his videos are shit posts, sometimes he makes some impressive arts and crafts.

    Persoanlly I think this makes a good play in the background video.

    Anyone looking forward to Sonic Superstars? It's looking like the proper modern sequel to the originals that Sonic 4 should've been.
