I would have to do the math, but I would be shocked if a cowling actually caught a blade failure. There is a lot of energy involved and the cowlings are thin to keep them light.

New York pizza culture is deeply personal to all involved. The idea of using someone else’s recipe would be repugnant.

Better title would be “Genetic algorithm learns how to make functional Factorio blueprints”

Can eddy current brakes bring something to a full stop? I thought the fin brakes in roller coasters are eddy current brakes, but isn’t there a physics limitation that prevents them from fully stopping the coaster?

[Feature Request] Clear web browser cookies per website (lemmy.world)
 

The issue: Certain website (like wired.com) will limit the number of articles a user is allowed to see before a paywall is forced on the user.

Proposed solutions:

  1. Allow the user to clear cookies for a website, resetting the limit. Possibly even introduce a user editable list of websites where cookies are cleared when the site is exited.
  2. By default or a list based on website, open links into “private browsing”/“incognito mode”, which should remove persistent cookies.

Additional information: many websites accomplish the paywall through the use of a client side tracking cookie. Removing the cookie resets the counter.

Additional removing cookies helps limit online tracking, keeping the user slightly more private.

Removing cookies does come with some downsides. If the user is logged into the website, removing cookies generally logs them off. Also, any persistent settings will likely be lost. Due to the normal use case of Voyager and Lemmy, this likely won’t be a significant issue.

On iOS: it doesn’t appear cookie data is shared between safari and voyager. Websites visited in Voyager do not show in the cookie list on the safari app.

Anything to add? Is there a setting that does this and I just missed it?

About to jump planets, what should I be taking along? Also is there anything I should make sure is done on the OG planet before leaving for a bit?

[Request] Don't filter blocked community post when directly accessing the community (lemmy.world)
 

Love the app and love the work you are doing on it! Thanks a bunch! I am running into one minor issue:

Right now if you block a community, then search for the community, it shows, but it will appear that there are no post in the community.

Ideally, if I am accessing a community from the search, even if I have blocked it, I would still like to see the post in it rather than having to unblock it.

For example, I almost exclusively use “All” and “Home”, in “All” political subreddits can get over bearing so I blocked it, but when I want to go look at the community in light of recent events, they all show as blank.

Ideally I would love a warning on the search page that I have blocked the community, but clicking into it will still show me all the post of the community.
