I was just scrolling "All". I'm sorry i can't help you with kbin, i never tried it out. Good luck with it, though.

Btw, your profile pic is rather funny :)

For now i just block the communities as they show up, same with shitposting communities and other stuff i've zero interest in. Waiting for the ability to block entire instances.

Vor zwei Monaten meinte jemand beim Teamfrühstück vegane Wurst sei keine echte Wurst und solle auch nicht so heißen.

Meine Antwort: "Dann darfst Du auch nicht mehr Kackwurst sagen."

Alle habens mit Humor genommen und der Kollege hat diese Woche meine Hafermilch im Kaffee ausprobiert. 👍

Ich hab erst vor kurzem damit angefangen und benutze die Trackfunktion in OsmAnd auf dem Handy (ist open source und funktioniert offline). Lässt sich danach auf der Karte darstellen und bietet Übersichten mit Höhen, Steigungen, Geschwindigkeit etc. Speicherformat ist gpx. Soweit ich weiß gibt es keine Möglichkeit Daten von externen Sensoren einzubauen (Trittfrequenz oder so).

Solange keine Schilder auf dem Radweg stehen, fällt mir auch nichts ein. als Radfahrer schüttel ich selber öfter den Kopf über meine Jenoss_innen.

Zum Preis kann ich nichts sagen. 625 ist recht gut (afaik ist 720 momentan das Maximum). Der Riemenantrieb ist schön wartungsarm; bin zufrieden damit. Reichen dir 8 Gänge?

Two big instances were defederated by Beehaw recently because there were no sufficient tools to deal with problematic users. For detailed information have a look at the announcement.

... [the] unfortunate reality we’ve also found is we just don’t have the tools or the time here to parse out all the good from all the bad. all we have is a nuke and some pretty rudimentary mod powers that don’t scale well. ...

In case you want to see pre-moderated contet you can look at the mod log. I read a couple of pages some weeks ago. Besides a good amount of technical stuff like double posts, there was a lot of racist, trans-/homophobe content and general insults. What we see is the result of plenty of work done with insuffient tools. Keep in mind Lemmy is still 0.xx.

You might want to chill down a bit. It's not like people run a nuclear plant with Lemmy. I mean what's the worst thing possibly happening if you miss a handful of posts? Exactly, pretty much nothing.

Development wise i think mod tools are far more important. Keep in mind that Lemmy is still beta and only one part of the fediverse.

Which apps do currently work with Beehaw? And where do i get them? I tried Jerboa from F-Droid and Google Play. It says 17.4 is to old. Lemmur from F-Droid didn't find Beehaw at all. Couldn't find other apps at both places. I'm using a Fairphone 4 with Android 12.

BTW: i'm rather unexperienced with smartphones, hadn't bought a new one since 2012. (no mouse, no keyboard, no decent screen, not even bash; finicky things!)

Thanks!

Edit: Connect works so far. Thanks everybody!

 

I use a Fuji xt-4 for more "ambitious" photography. Recently i bought my first modern-ish smartphone (Fairphone 4) and would like to use it for snapshots and when i come across a interesting motive and don't have my camera with me.

It should have both, a good automated mode and the possibilities to do settings manually (mostly exposure triangle).

And it would be great if it was Foss or at least doesn't spy on me.

Thanks!

Today i'm actually proud of myself. I'm good with wood, textiles, gardening, trees etc. But metal, machines, electronics don't come natural to me at all. I learned to take care of bicycles or chainsaws because I had to but those scary household machines never. Until today. The machine stopped midway, full of water and clothes. Panic ensued. I already saw myself forced to buy a new one. After mere 20 years!

But mommy raised not quitter, so i took the stuff out, drained the water (without flooding the bathroom!) and had a look at that debris catcher thing and the lye pump. Both a bit dirty but easily cleaned and the pump's screw still moved. After looking into the waste tube I put everything together again and run an empty cleaning cycle. At first everything seemed fine but coming back from a short nap the machine was full of water again. So rinse and repeat it is.

This time i watched a few videos on how to dismantel the machine to get to the inner tubes. I had a hard time finding something since i've apparently got a rare top loader model. Luckily i watched one vid with a guy looking at the lye pump with a flash light instead of just feeling for coins or buttons with my fingers. So back down on the belly it was.

Lo and Behold! There was the culprit! A bloody rubber band had wrapped itself around the screw. Not nice. At all.

Being the good hoarder i am, it wasn't difficult to find some long hooks (spare bike spokes) to fish it out. Doing it was though. But with a good amount of patience and some luck (and an astonishing lack of cursing) i managed to untwine it and ease it out, without leaving anything stuck around the screw. (Funny thing is I don't use any white rubber bands, ain't got a clue where it came from.)

All in all it took me "only" two hours. But I fixed my first washing machine!

I hope you enjoyed my little Saga of "The Washing Machine and The Rubber Band" and I wish you at least the same amount of success for your own projects. Be they voluntary or not.
