If you are part of the federation you wear a uniform, sure. If you are not, you don’t. So what?

I think you meant to say starfleet instead of federation…

The only label on the map that's both on Latin and in old German.

Because after moving very slowly and steadily for just about forever, the other galaxies will suddenly make a jump of like ten thousandth of a degree.

Imagine the following:

You actually can stop the time by snapping you fingers, but it stops time for the entire universe, including yourself, with the exception of one single observer on some unimportant planet in the Andromeda galaxy. After 100 years from the POV of that observer, time resumes again.

Would you even be able to tell?

Is OpenBSD seriously still using CVS for development?

And "nothing" does not fit, either.

I can see it going both ways. Talking about execution times, this would be an exaggeration, but then, these memes always are.

Attempted electrical substation sabotage is an easy way to fix your loneliness forever. And also all of your other problems.

The actual aluminium that people work with in actual real life are also alloys.

How about when they say "a phenomena"?

To be fair, speed is relative.

Sure, but the relevant speed up there is relative to the air around you. The missile will have a negative air speed at first, than accelerate to positive, briefly passing through 0 in between, which comes with weird consequences for lift and steering.

It is read-only, no new submissions allowed, but it is no longer private.

 

Is there any lemmy community for finding and discussing other communities, in the sense of "Hey, I am interested in this and that topic, which community should I join?"

 

I see kbin.social mentioned here and there where lemmy is discussed. How are those two related? Are they linked up, or are those completely separate communities?

 

I see plenty of posts talking about a huge influx of new users to lemmy.ml lately. Can we get some numbers about that? How many new users per day are we talking? How does that translate to number of requests per second (or minute) on the frontend?

What kind of hardware is lemmy.ml running on? Is it just a single server? Can lemmy instances be run on a loadbalanced cluster?

I'm really interested to see how efficient and resilient the lemmy software really is, at the moment I am getting the impression that it is buckling under the load of, honestly, not even that many users...

 

In some cases when I post a comment to a topic on a different instance, the comment will seemingly just disappear into thin air. Posting and commenting to the Lemmy Support community seems to work mostly fine, even though it is on lemmy.ml while my account is on lemmy.world. Any comments I tried to make on feddit.de just plain disappeared, though, no trace of them anywhere, not in my profile, not in the discussion thread, not even on the actual feddit.de instance.

Any idea what's going wrong here?

 

See title, is there any way to make lemmy not automatically blur the image thumbnails in posts marked as "NSFW"?
