Good news, everyone!

We're back, baby!

Edit: Maybe a touch premature. It's a little wonky, but I can get through slower than usual.

Defederated Data

The main times in the evening when I'm on Lemmy are when my host's admin (in Germany) is asleep. So if my host is having issues I just have to accept that I'm probably done with TF for the day.

This is in line with the rule that if you have a dental problem it will be on a Friday evening.

"We took him apart and now we don't know how to put him back together."

Man, Lore has a 6-pack and an ass you could bounce quarters off of. Meanwhile Data looks like he's got a little paunch

[-] Metz@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

And I tried to open Lemmy to distract me from that fact. multiple times. I feel slightly ashamed.

[-] SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

The same feeling as when the internet is down so you try to go to those down detector websites to see if the internet is down.

Seems to be some trouble...

This shit is aggravating. Even had to break out the alt account I haven't touched for months.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Same here with my instance at Lemmy.ca .... I maintain an Alt account at Lemmy.world

[-] OpenStars@piefed.social 4 points 1 week ago

So what do I do when my alt (this one) has now become my main? :-P

Expedition 60 Data reporting for duty.

[-] QuadratureSurfer@piefed.social 9 points 1 week ago

True, but the coolest thing is it just goes to show another benefit of the fediverse. We're still able to post/comment on here with alts even when their servers are having issues.

[-] SatyrSack@feddit.org 6 points 1 week ago

Also an opportunity to impersonate someone like a mod or something by making an account on a different instance using the same username of a known user and claiming to be their alt. I cannot think of lasting damage that could be done, but just pointing out that there can be also downsides that we should be wary of.

Abe Froman... I mean, ummthatguy?

[-] QuadratureSurfer@piefed.social 4 points 1 week ago

Hmm a very interesting point. And I don't think we want to implement a "blue check" symbol for verified accounts.

[-] SatyrSack@feddit.org 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I would pay eight replicator rations for Lemmy Premium just to get a lame checkmark by my name.

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Pay attention to the domain lol

Same shit with spam emails

[-] SatyrSack@feddit.org 2 points 1 week ago

That's the problem. If there was a well-known user named "foobar@lemmy.world" and the instance went down, that would be a perfect opportunity for some other random person to create an account named "foobar@sh.itjust.works" and claim to be the alt account of "foobar@lemmy.world", just on a different instance because lemmy.world is down at the moment.

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Fair, some sort of verifiable identity marker, people hate crypto but an nft in your wallet could be used for identification.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Oh good, it's not just me.

[-] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago

Sorry, I would write something elaborate and meaningful here, but just can't form my opinion without getting the whole picture :/

[-] harmsy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I keep having to smash f5 every few seconds SMH. Time to go do something else for a while.

[-] andybytes@programming.dev 6 points 1 week ago

Fucking obscure covert dad joke

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

So only partially functional I assume?

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.
