If there’s an automated way to migrate to piefed.social that includes the comments, media and ideally attribiution for all of the old posts that would be cool. I’ll investigate those options a little

Yes, there is. One other community that I'd been using did that: !CasualConversation@lemm.ee moved to !CasualConversation@piefed.social using PieFed's migration feature. It retains comments. It mirrors media to piefed.social, as best I can tell, and the attribution issue goes away.

I've been reposting the old stuff manually to !CassetteFuturism@lemmy.world, but I'll put that on pause if you're planning to migrate to a third community on piefed.social instead.

Well, depends on the municipality. My local government does water, and according to this, that's more-common than not, but that's not a universal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_privatization_in_the_United_States

In the latter half of the 19th century, private water systems began to be a part of municipal services.[1] As of 2011, over three quarters of US local governments surveyed by the International City/County Management Association provide water distribution entirely with public employees. Over two thirds of municipalities provide water treatment publicly, and over half provide sewage collection and treatment publicly. These rates have remained relatively stable over time.[2]

Private water companies have been operating in the United States for over 200 years and now number in the thousands. Collectively, the private water industry serves more than 73 million Americans.

The lemm.ee instance is going down at the end of the month.

A lot of real-time tactics and turn-based tactics games would fit that description.

Matrix Games specializes in milsims, so they're an easy way to get a list.

As another commenter says, having more criteria to narrow it down would help.

I like the Close Combat series myself, which is real-time.

They actually do make little portable battery-powered ones. I was looking at them the other day when I was wondering how much it would cost to set up a Linux teletype terminal in response to some other comment.

Not built into the laptop, but can pull it out of a laptop bag and use it.

Oh, damn, sorry

this repost should have gone to the new community. Didn't realize this one had been unlocked.

looks embarrassed

Crossposting.

I mean, they kind of drive the point home further in the article:

So far, we’ve observed six devices total that we believe were targeted for exploitation by this threat actor, four of which demonstrated clear signatures associated with NICKNAME, and two which demonstrated clear signs of successful exploitation. Interestingly, all of the victims had either previously been targeted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) e.g., they were confirmed to have also been targeted by Salt Typhoon; they were engaging in business pursuits counter to or of particular interest to the CCP; or they had engaged in some sort of activism against the CCP.

Honestly, there aren't that many posts in this community's history---only ~240-and-change---and it'd be a shame to lose the images. Tell you what, @Scirocco@lemm.ee and @sag@lemm.ee. I'll go ahead and take the initiative and go through and manually repost the history myself to the new community with what images I can recover, and upload to lemmy.today's pict-rs instance; not all are still accessible.

Also, given that catbox.moe---another popular place to host content posted to the Threadiverse---is also at risk of going down, probably a good thing to get anything on there off anyway, if anyone's used that.

I’ve made one one on .world

It appears to be !CassetteFuturism@lemmy.world, for anyone looking.

Hopefully with an automated tool of some sort…

PieFed apparently has some functionality like this; the !InternetIsBeautiful@lemm.ee migration to !InternetIsBeautiful@piefed.social did this, and old posts---including, importantly, a new copy of images posted by lemm.ee users now hosted on piefed.social---are visible on that instance. I have not seen old posts yet show up on my own instance as of this writing, and am not sure whether they will do so or are even expected to do so.

Well, someone's gotta be the guinea pig!

I have no idea what, if any, compatibility issues exist between Piefed and Lemmy instances today, as I don't normally use any communities on instances running Piefed. Might be a good idea to ask the PieFed people or piefed.social admins about any known issues, or check the Piefed issue tracker:

Mod-Assigned Post Flair is Dropped When a Lemmy Post is Edited

Like, for a community that relied heavily on post flair to make the community work, that might be a substantial issue.

but I’ve really enjoyed it.

Me too, and I hope it lives on elsewhere myself!

Lemmy.today also has policy against defederation, and it's still happily chugging along.
