Is this strictly Lemmy or does it include related platforms like PieFed and Mbin? Because it seems like there has been some shift to PieFed

Wait, so the Thomas’s English Muffin was their invention?

All we have to do to stop her is put different shapes in the square hole

Mario Chase in Nintendoland was always a popular one when we had parties, and not something that could be easily recreated on other systems.

1.4 change log: “A city is a beautiful, but insane machine that survives always in homeostasis and always in chaos. In 1.4 you get a little less narrative, a little more reality, the structures of everyday life exposed, greed companies, economy that doesn’t forgive, even the broke. The night mode is a pleasant anesthesia; use it, but do not confuse ambience with robustness.”

That’s what I would’ve expected

That looks pretty deep!

300 km out of 24 kWh?

Press X to doubt.

In theory I still like the experience of being in a theater. In practice, especially in the winter months, I’m not such a fan of being in such close proximity to a bunch of strangers in a public space. There are too many people willing to still go out when they’re sick.

I don’t know about any background services; it’s their cloud gaming service. It would be a benefit for the people who want to switch to Linux but have a game or two they want to play that can’t be run on Linux, because of things like kernel level anti-cheat or whatnot.

This is occurring to me, people are using FPGA to recreate old systems. Is anybody doing that for old Amiga systems?

This move affects MTV’s dedicated music-only channels, not the main MTV network, which will continue airing reality shows and pop culture programming. In the U.K. and across parts of Europe, channels like MTV Music, MTV 80s, MTV 90s, Club MTV, and MTV Live are being removed from Sky and Virgin Media lineups. In the U.S., remaining regional cable feeds that still carried music-only MTV programming are also slated to go dark as distribution contracts expire.

I remember a TV station I worked at, that had a lot of good redundancies with 3 redundant UPSs that could keep a bunch of equipment on air until the big generator took over, one day had the UPS controller die and took all 3 UPSs out. I think it took the engineers a couple days to get everything back up and running.

They can look a little odd on Lemmy, but not crazy. I don’t know how they look on PieFed, Mbin, Friendica, etc. Lemmy doesn’t use hashtags so having a lot of them looks odd, but I think PieFed and the others support them so they might work better there.

I don’t see Mastodon-originated posts often, mostly on the photography groups. They haven’t been a problem there. I don’t know how it works to get posts from a Lemmy/PieFed/Mbin community in Mastodon, so I don’t know if you get the full experience that way. You might get more by creating an account in one of the other services. But that’s the beauty of the Fediverse, you usually can access the content in the way that works best for you.

So is the plan to send the whole “factory” up and bring it back down after it makes its production run? They said the next step is to test the heat shield.

British advertising executive Rory Sutherland coined the term “doorman fallacy” in his 2019 book Alchemy. Sutherland uses the concept of the humble hotel doorman to illustrate how businesses can misjudge the value a person brings to the role.

To a business consultant, a doorman appears to simply stand by the entrance. They engage in small talk with those coming and going, and occasionally operate the door.

If that’s the entirety of the job, a technological solution can easily replace the doorman, reducing costs. However, this strips away the true complexity of what a doorman provides.

The role is multifaceted, with intangible functions that extend beyond just handling the door. Doormen help guests feel welcome, hail taxis, enhance security, discourage unwelcome behaviour, and offer personalised attention to regulars. Even the mere presence of a doorman elevates the prestige of a hotel or residence, boosting guests’ perception of quality.

When you ignore all these intangible benefits, it’s easy to argue the role can be automated. This is the doorman fallacy – removing a human role because technology can imitate its simplest function, while ignoring the layers of nuance, service and human presence that give the role its true value.
