They always have fun with the “attribution” of that incomplete explanation tag for new comics 😄

“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

Don’t forget the --no-preserve-root either. If you leave the roots intact, the French will just grow right back

the difference between community <-> user are less than youd think. the hurdles are nearly identical

As a matter of fact, if you look up a Lemmy community (or *bin magazine) on i.e. Mastodon, you’ll see it’s literally just a user that boosts all posts/comments posted to it

I don’t ActivityPub has any concept of communities, since even microblog-focused groups (like Guppe) work that way

Edit: not really, see replies

I don’t know about this one, I think Randall would be a good president. I support his policies.

It looks like the bricks on the top front of the building and the sign are photoshopped in

If you zoom in, those bricks are much bigger than the bricks around the garage doors and on the side, and the transition is rounded and happens in the middle of bricks. Whoever made this must not have masked out the pole (assume that’s also legit) because the brick texture and the bottom of the sign go over it

Wouldn’t be a Canvas without it!

Looks like that’s open source, so hopefully it shouldn’t be too hard to stand up our own instance of Atlas

Looking at the current map, would you be interested in moving to the left then lemmy.zip takes your place? We can put them together as [↑SC↓] @ [🐭.zip]

(minor nit that I must pick: EST is winter time (UTC-5), we are on daylight savings/summer time now, which makes it EDT (UTC-4))

Was scrolling though some older posts from last year, and came across @[email protected]’s idea to do the Arecibo message. So, here it is! Centered on the right edge because why not?

First line even before the main article

Summarized: Key Takeaways

1. The Sargasso Sea is the breeding ground for all freshwater eels, where they travel thousands of miles to spawn and then die.

D’oh! I always get those two mixed up… Too many "Space Shuttle C_____ Disaster"s…

Finally, a use for my 1-bit bloom filter!

I mean in fairness to the first one, on most systems it is possible to turn wifi back on without turning off airplane mode (there is in-flight wifi after all)

There’s also the term ritardando in music for gradually slowing down, but at least that’s typically abbreviated to “rit.”

How big will the canvas be this year? There was a fair bit of whitespace last year, but even with minimal notice limited only to Lemmy, it was almost the perfect amount for everything to fit without overlapping
