Ah, sorry for getting testy there, Nico.
But what MORE do you imagine I could do, given a switch in roles, matey?

I’m literally ‘hands tied behind my back, here’ and for what, Nico? Did I do something WRONG…?

SO THEN-- let someone state what I did wrong, so then let’s correct it, eh…?

Really interesting comments IMO, and pardon this delay in replying.

I’m disabled over here, but want to get in to this stuff more, si cela ne pose pas de problème?

Thank you!
And please let me know if there’s anything I can do to help.

Overall I’m really happy with my community and this instance, just that… shit is frustrating, lol.

Interesting.
As just a learner, I have no idea what the real / technical difference is between the “oe” versus “œ” diphthong.

Probably missed the prime opportunity with the age of this post, but if any French-speaking person could check in, I’d appreciate it.

Tested again just now. Still seems busted.

Still this code added in, breaking image-linking attempts:

Thanks for this thread and the replies, and I just wanted to add on that there are additional issues going on, related or not. For example:

Our community (“lemm.ee/c/eurographicnovels” no longer shows up in “Lemmy Explorer.”

For example, we were the #2 listing for a long time, until ten days ago, when these three issues first manifested.

See:

“Graphic novels” is literally our title, and the wording routinely occurs throughout our posts, but we’re now invisible?

Christians have an utter landslide of reasons to believe the most outlandish of complete nonsense, but I’ve always been a fan of science, facts, and reality.

So I thank you. <3

Eh… refresh me on who she was?

Sorry, it’s been like 25yrs since I’ve seen that lovely film!

Génial!!

Same!
Indeed, check out his “Wheel of Fortune” art, there.

Man, it’s PERFECT for Moeby and the Tarot, both!

EDIT: Got too excited, there. :S

Sorry for this super-duper late response!
Just wanted to say:

yes, wow!

I think I’ll refrain from posting a pic here, but mom had a ‘plant-bent’ that she followed up on by eventually becoming a certified ‘master gardener’ via series of courses.

In parallel with that, over the course of many years, mom took the little suburban backyard we had and transformed it in to… holy Willy Wonkas… a sort of ‘lush paradise,’ and with each square foot or so, it consisted of generally non-native, fascinating species. I.e., plants with interesting herbal qualities, incredible flowers, or whatnot.

Earlier, we’d rescued two stray cats, and it was really fun seeing them go back outside and frolic in mom’s garden. Hahaha, it was like an amusement park to them, one in which they became undeniably blissful and non-argumentative. (see, they didn’t like each too much, despite being sister littermates)

Right on.

Now this is just personal anecdote-- but one thing I’ve always been pretty surprised by (as a person with fairly severe health issues, haha not sure how that totally influences thigns) is how, when there’s a local emergency, the adrenaline just hits me and I spring in to action (as much as I can) to help out.

Par example, three times now I’ve survived bad fires that way, and after comparing notes with an old friend over Uvalde, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that both of us felt the same way-- that we wouldn’t have been able to look ourselves in the mirror if we hadn’t made our best attempt to save the kids.

Seriously, how do these BLUE people look at themselves in the mirror for either not doing their best that day, or on a national scale, for enabling this awful betrayal of public trust?

boys and girls in blue

How about we clarify that as: little boys and little girls in blue.

Altho TBF, women in blue are typically at the bottom of the chain, and almost certainly deserve the least amount of critique here, whilst the highest ranking dudes unquestionably deserve all the shit in the world for directly ordering their forces not to make any meaningful attempt.

Shaka, When the Walls Fell.

Wait… I think I’m getting my events mixed up. :S

Oh man, and thank YOU for reminding me of “Mawril.”

I’ll try to explain later… properly!

So… anything like a Trabant?

My Hungarian uncle (by marriage) used to drily observe “Is not car, is Trabant.”

@joneskind@lemmy.world

First of all, thank you for the helpful response!

Altho I love the Internet Archive, my impression is that at best it exists in a distinctly ‘grey area’ of copyright. AFAIK it has not in fact received permission from any of the legal rights-holders to host their content there.

And yes, it’s all very well to (rightfully) claim that it’s the users who did the uploading and that AO will remove any material as requested, that’s not the same thing as being in compliance with copyright law as various rights-holders have themselves claimed, which is why many of them would love nothing more than to shut the AO down.

The real problem on our end is that we don’t want to cause any problems for our host as well as Lemmy, overall. That link you shared is obviously a treasure trove of Sillage albums, but of course it was all scanned and uploaded without copyright permission, and therefore constitutes pirated content virtually to the letter of the law.

OTOH I’m frequently posting copyrighted content myself, but I do try to keep it in the spirit of fair-usage excerpts which generally fit the model of promoting a work without sharing the entire thing… frankly another grey area that might need to be revisited at some point. And you would be absolutely right to point out that I’ve linked to some complete short stories on Imgur that I certainly didn’t have permission to post(!)

In that spirit, I’d say you’d be perfectly fine linking to the first several pages of a Sillage (or whatever) album on Imgur, etc if you wanted to help introduce people to the series. And yes, I get that would probably be a lot more work than you’re interested in, but that’s exactly the kind of thing I frequently do in putting my posts together here…

Sorry, but direct links like that go against our sidebar guidelines:

don’t link to pirated downloads.

Where as tofu is rather efficient at only 80 kcal per 100g.

Tofu is a heavily-processed “food,” so it’s the last thing I’d be holding up as any kind of standard, here.
