I love this bit from the article:

To a request for comment, X only sent Ars an auto-response, saying, “Busy now, please check back later.” (To be fair, in this case “check back later” is a good summary of what happened.)

Don’t worry, it’s just a Team Fortress 2 reference: https://youtu.be/PLmrdZVvtT8?si=CpKmRpdGU-l3aDa1

Here you go:

HELP IM TRAPPED IN A DILDO FACTORY

Yeah exactly. It does have some features that require integration with the init system, which systemd obviously supports, but it could be used independently of systemd quite happily, and other init systems could easily support those integrations.

Is the bottom picture AI upscaled? It looks way crisper than I remembee that meme ever looking

It’s not, it’s based on an old meme.

To give them their due (little as that may be), this only seems to prevent users from logging in to the mobile web interface, not from viewing content as a random user from Google.

Asking the important questions! I won’t deny this has already crossed my mind. I do think lemmings sounds like the best option.

I quite like playing SSBU! I go to my locals whenever I get the chance, though I’m still going 0-2. I’ve dabbled in Guilty Gear Strive, and with the current zeitgeist around SF6 I’m considering giving that a go as well.

If anyone else is into Smash Bros games, check out [email protected]! I just started it today.

I’ve had to change my mindset; if I care about it existing, then I have to be the one who makes it. I’ve already created [email protected] and I’ve become a mod for [email protected].

I think there might be more going on as the post in question is 4 days old, and all the comments are at least 1 day old; is the syncing typically days behind? The federated version that OP links shows 0 comments, and the version on my instance has just 5 comments.

Is it to do with when a user on the remote instance first interacted with the post? I.e, its only showing comments from after someone on lemmy.sdf.org first interacted with the post?

I saw this story going down on Reddit a few days ago but only just now learned that the original creator of r/BattleTech came back to boot out the bad mods, which is pretty cool.

Hey there! I’m a Smash Ultimate player. I’m going to my local regularly and trying to improve, though I’m still trash.

I’d love to have a community for the FGC here. I frequented the subreddit r/CrazyHand a fair bit, which is a community focused on helping people improve at competitive Smash, and it’s a great little place.

I think the conventional way this is handled on Reddit is separating memes and fluff into one one community (subreddit) and more discussion based content into another community. It works on Reddit because even if the memes get more engagement in an absolute sense, each subreddit has it’s own yard stick for what is doing well, so a discussion that makes it to the front page of its own subreddit will make it through to the front page of users who are subscribed, alongside the memes. I don’t yet know enough about how Lemmy ranks posts to know if this will work, but hopefully it will.
