fixed the link

 

Why are there three of these? I only posted it once.

Also, remote printing and monitoring are nice features, which would be a pity to lose.

I don't see an easy way to accomplish this independent of Bambu's servers, especially if you use the handy app on your phone.

Slightly harder: add exceptions for bambus servers in your routers firewall so that requests to that domain are blocked

I assigned a static IP address to my A1 mini in my router, and made a firewall rule preventing all traffic originating from that IP from going to the internet. The printer is also in LAN only mode, but I periodically have to reconnect it to Bambu studio which is annoying.

This is correct. I use "ASCII art" to refer mostly to fancy CLI welcome messages

I miss those thin serif fonts that were all over tech magazines in the 80s and 90s

 

Some text from a constructed world I play around with that leans into an 80s tech aesthetic. FTL communication exists, but the data rate is comparable to a dial up modem. Vibrant multimedia experiences like we see on the modern web do exist, but isolated to planet-wide internetworks. Interplanetary communication is a purely text-based affair.

The text is read from right to left, and is just the word for operating system in one of my conlangs.

I thought they were sold in the US now with some slight modifications to comply with the law? I know I've seen Kinder eggs in my local grocery store.

But yes, the ban is due to a perfectly sensible law having a bizarre edge case.

It's also why king cakes don't have the little baby figurines in them I believe.

On Lemmy you can see (and search) a list of all the activity from every instance federated to your home instance. Looking at Ibis, which a few posters have mentioned on this thread, it has a discover page with a list of federated instances and articles on those instances. The current format is hardly scalable, but it's a start.

But, as I said before, the issue is less about discoverability and more about editing. Just like I can post in this thread even though I'm on a different instance, you can edit an article on one instance even though you're on another. The alternative as used by Wikipedia, is to allow anyone, account or not, to edit. Requiring someone to have an account on a federated instance would mitigate a fair amount of spam and ease moderation.

In addition to discoverability, I'd say it provides a happy medium between letting every rando with an IP address edit a page and requiring account creation. Part of the point of the fediverse is to have (almost) everything in one place under a single account while still keeping things decentralized.

I wouldn't doubt it, though MW seems hard to manage.

This looks interesting.

Seems like it's still early days yet, but are there plans to add things like namespaces and categories?

I'm not thinking of a single distributed wiki, but something more like Fandom where you can edit pages on other wikis that are federated to yours.

 

I absolutely love wiki walking through random obscure fan wikis, but I hate how most are on Fandom.

I think a federated wiki solution makes sense. I could see it as an evolution of the interwiki concept.

 

Here are some very beginner attempts at 3D art I made for a personal sci-fi worldbuilding project. I knew absolutely nothing about 3D art (art in general, really) until January of last year when I downloaded Blender on a lark and started poking around. Why not? It's free. Texturing and shading is proving quite daunting, so I've been sticking with a more primitive style. Kinda reminds me of the show ReBoot.

Just wandering around Lemmy looking for conlanging communities. Saw this one linked in the sidebar of !worldbuilding@lemmy.world .

I happen to be partial to xenolangs, and the above is a sample of Commonthroat, a language inspired by the sounds my dog makes when he's dreaming. The "Romanization", if you can call it that, is rCFqKqmqn, pronounced /chuff, long rising strong whine, huff, long high strong growl, huff, short low strong grunt, huff, short high weak grunt/, and means egg eater.

The script is read from right to left, and as the phrase reverse abjad implies, the letters are vowels (whines, growls, or grunts) and the diacritics are consonants (huffs, chuffs, or yips). Both tone and volume are significant in vowels.

 

I want to have a running thread and use the OP as a table of contents linking to specific comments within the thread.
