Oh, that’s interesting. Didn’t know about that.

I don’t think that there’s a way to list instances that a PieFed instance has defederated from, unlike Lemmy; while both have a list of instances at /instances, only Lemmy indicates which ones have been defederated from. It was a helpful tool to help me guess the sort of content an instance had.

Like:

https://lemmy.world/instances (under “Blocked Instances”)

https://piefed.world/instances

EDIT: It does show the last time that the instance sent data, and I guess you could sort of guess that if a large instance that probably has activity hasn’t sent data to the PieFed instance — like lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net on piefed.world — then they’re probably defederated. But it doesn’t clearly indicate that this is the case, either.

Debunking the Myth Surrounding Puritans and Sex

The Puritans weren’t prudish. In fact, they were passionate.

From the beginning, Puritans maintained sexual intercourse was necessary for procreation, but also asserted sex was an important way for couples to bond in a loving relationship.

“They talk about the duty to desire, that you’re supposed to engage in intercourse with your married partner and that this is good,” says Bremer. “There will actually be some people in early New England who are censured by the church because they have deprived their married partner of sex for three months or more and this is seen as bad.”

I don’t think the Puritans had any issue with pregnant people having sex.

How to look it up:

M-x org-mode RET

That’s “Meta-X” (Alt-X), then “org-mode” and Enter, switches the major mode of the current buffer to org-mode so that we have the org-mode keybindings active.

C-h k C-c C-x C-l

C-h, Control-H, is the “help” prefix. “C-h k” is describe-key, tells you what a given key sequence runs. C-h k C-c C-x C-l will say what C-c C-x C-l does. It gives the following output:

C-c C-x C-l runs the command org-latex-preview (found in
org-mode-map), which is an interactive native-comp-function in
‘org.el’.

It is bound to C-c C-x C-l.

(org-latex-preview &optional ARG)

Toggle preview of the LaTeX fragment at point.

If the cursor is on a LaTeX fragment, create the image and
overlay it over the source code, if there is none.  Remove it
otherwise.  If there is no fragment at point, display images for
all fragments in the current section.  With an active region,
display images for all fragments in the region.

With a ‘C-u’ prefix argument ARG, clear images for all fragments
in the current section.

With a ‘C-u C-u’ prefix argument ARG, display image for all
fragments in the buffer.

With a ‘C-u C-u C-u’ prefix argument ARG, clear image for all
fragments in the buffer.

I mean there’s the EWMM, emacs based windows manager. So it can absolutely do anything.

Nobody’s made a Wayland compositor running in emacs yet, just an X11 window manager!

EDIT: Okay, apparently they have, ewx, but unlike EXWM, it’s not really in a usable state.

I don’t know if I’d call it a favorite, but Time Cube is pretty iconic of Internet zaniness for a certain period. It went down in 2015, a decade ago now.

Setting aside the specifics of the case, I do think that from a UI standpoint, cars either need to support being left in park without the climate control eventually cutting off or be so extremely clear that this will happen that it would be extremely difficult for a user to miss, as this is a legitimate example of a “fail-deadly” feature.

IIRC from reading comments from people who have slept in their car and very much want the ability to leave the climate control system active, at least some Toyota models do support leaving the climate control active for extended periods of time, but the car needs to be in “Ready” mode. It was not immediately obvious to users that this was the case.

Do you want the router to also be 10" rack-mountable? That seems like it’d be a big input into the hardware you get.

Depends on the game.

I think that they have been used effectively in games like Starbound and Terraria or many roguelikes and roguelites.

I think that there have been some games where they do not work well.

Starfield has a beautiful terrain generator, but different terrain doesn’t really change gameplay, nor does combat really scale up to making use of very large maps, so you have the ability to explore infinite expanses of planets, but it doesn’t really provide much in gameplay terms. Aside from finding a cluster of useful resources near each other for an outpost, which isn’t that interesting from a gameplay standpoint and doesn’t need most of the terrain generator’s functionality, it’s mostly just cosmetic.

I think that they work best where how you play the game changes substantially based on the mix of features of the dungeon. Then throwing a new mix each time at the player helps keep things interesting.

IPv4 has some other features too.

$ ping 0x8.02004010
PING 0x8.02004010 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.

That’ll be Google’s root DNS server, using hexadecimal and octal representations.

Maybe they don’t want to move to a cloud-based system.

I don’t want a cloud-based office package, and I can imagine that the same might apply to them.

I love CDDA, but I don’t know if I’d call it light on a battery. It won’t hammer a GPU, but it actually does use a fair bit of CPU time for the simulation. Also, every time it redraws a frame, it does so via recomputing the world lighting and such, so it’s actually surprisingly heavyweight.

No; they’re similar games, but not protocol-compatible.

The Luanti client is a free download, though; Luanti is open-source.

There’s a similar, open-source game, Luanti (until recently, known as Minetest). It doesn’t have as many mods in 2025 as Minecraft does, but you might also enjoy it.

I remember Shadowgrounds and Shadowgrounds: Survivor being some of the earliest commercial games with native Linux ports. Probably a lot harder to get the native port running on current Linux distros than the Windows release, unfortunately…
