different stance to how blocking is handled, one far more abuseable

How is it more abuseable?

What things do they handle differently? I mean, PieFed has an equivalent of Multireddits and Lemmy does not, but Lemmy is about to have them if 1.0 comes out some year. That’s already been declared.

The same with flairs. Yeah, PieFed has them, Lemmy doesn’t, but Lemmy will have them if 1.0 comes out.

I wouldn’t say it’s “handling things differently” that one has implemented features that the other one is still in the process of implementing, but has already decided it definitely will implement them, at some point.

PieFed is essentially just future Lemmy.

Oh, so Stellaris 4 is out already?!

I’m apparently currently running Stellaris 4.2.3. I didn’t even know it’s not Stellaris 1 anymore!

It’s… Weird. If they consider there to have been already Stellaris 2 and Stellaris 3, meaning they see it as a different game, then… Why just delete Stellaris 1?
But also, I do need to try downgrading to 2.1.3 and see how it feels now that I’m used to the ways of Stellaris 4!

I think the 1.0 build is still available on steam

…wut?! How?

59 million €… How many percent is that of Amazon’s profits made in Germany? This counts as a business expense for them, not as a punishment.

Okay.

Just wanted to point out that PieFed and Lemmy are the same thing. There’s a reason to fight between Reddit and Forumverse, but whatever makes Lemmy grow is good for PieFed and vice versa. So, the meaning of the word “alternative” is very different when comparing Reddit with Forumverse, and when comparing various Forumverse softwares to each other.

Reddit is kind of “against” us, while PieFed and Lemmy play in the same team.

options are essentially PieFed, Reddit, or Lemmy

Reddit is actually a whole different system. Yes, it’s alternative for the whole of fediverse, as it is completely unfederated. It’s basically just one instance. Being a PieFed/Lemmy/Mbin alternative, it of course shares a lot of features with them (much more with PieFed, but a very reasonable amount with Lemmy as well!)

With PieFed and Lemmy and Mbin you have access to all the same posts and all the same communities, so they are alternatives to each other, and it mostly doesn’t matter a shit which one you go for. But Reddit is a different thing altogether.

You can check what Reddit ise over here: http://reddit.com/ . Try searching for any Forumverse posts there and you will see it’s not part of the Fediverse. You will not find any of our content there, unless someone who has created a user account also on Reddit has copypasted something to Reddit!

I hope this information was of use for you! 👍

And the original Italian so that you don’t need to click the post open:

Buongiorno. Ho un problema: ho un notebook con Linux Ufficiozero, e ho un database access (non convertibile in un file per LibreOffice Base).Come faccio per usarlo? Devo ricostruire da zero tutto il database in LibreOffice?
Oppure mi tocca installare in qualche modo, forse con wine o un altro programma, Office su Linux?
Per me è di capitale importanza questo database perché mi serve per gestire un ente del terzo settore, praticamente devo gestire benefattori, offerte e progetti sostenuti

A machine translation of the Italian-language Mastodon post, by DeepL:

Good morning. I have a problem: I have a notebook with Linux Ufficiozero, and I have an Access database (which cannot be converted into a file for LibreOffice Base). How can I use it? Do I have to rebuild the entire database from scratch in LibreOffice? Or do I have to install Office on Linux somehow, perhaps with Wine or another programme?
This database is of paramount importance to me because I need it to manage a third sector organisation. Basically, I have to manage benefactors, donations and supported projects.

Is there actually a way to get to play the original? We now kind of have Stellaris 2, and Stellaris 1 is some kind of abandonware?! Although officially they are both Stellaris 1, of course.

I’d like to chime in with the recommendation to generally not veganify non-vegan recipes. You are taking a recipe that is designed with ingredients having certain characteristics, and substituting some of those ingredients with slightly different ones. If the original recipe has been tuned to be as close to perfection as possible, then your altered version cannot be as good.

And then again, a recipe designed as vegan from ground up has all the ratios between different ingredients, and the choices of ingredients designed to really fit well together.

My personal experience is that vegan food that is slightly different but takes the best out of the ingredients available can often be better than its non-vegan counterpart. You get better results by at most taking inspiration from the non-vegan foods and then creating something of your own than by trying to do something with altered ingredients.

But of course: This is the way for perfection. It assumes you are a gourmet magician or that you have extremely good recipes available somewhere. It can really often bring you very adequate results to just emulate a non-vegan recipe. I am sorry I am unable to directly help you with that; but I feel it might be useful to you if I tried pushing you a bit towards the direction of making the best of your ingredients and seeing what comes out of that :)
The best vegan foods I have eaten have all been such that you simply couldn’t sensibly make them using any non-vegan ingredients.

Good luck cooking, in any case!

Snowing isn’t possible without clouds, and clouds warm up in the same way a blanket does. It might be something like -20°C on a clear day, which is uncomfortable indeed, but a snowy day seldom gets colder than -10°C, might be more like -7°C or so. Not all that bad, really :)

MySoda answered my email and told the following shops: Marktkauf, Kaufland, Rossmann, DM, Lidl. And they mentioned www.sodataste.com and www.sodalivery.com as further online sources for CO2.

Then, they also mentioned CO2 cylinders by Wassermaxx and Aldi being compatible (beside “basically all cylinders”, with practically the only exception being that most Sodastream cylinders are incompatible), and from the existence of Aldi cylinders I’ll venture to make a guess that Aldi has them as well 🤪 And since we’ve now covered Lidl, Red Netto and Aldi, I’d be surprised if Penny Markt didn’t have the same as well. The dog Netto usually has nothing anyway, so probably not this service either?

Anyway, doesn’t seem to be an insurmountable problem in Germany at all!

What does the lore tell about why the marsupial rat cannot locate the hero by smell?

Is this based on Shattered PD or some other form of PD?

Edit: SPD is mentioned in another post. Cool!

I hate the electric toilet flush handles used in Tesla, but I must admit it did feel impressive when I encountered it the first time. I was hitchhiking and was allowed in a car. The door handle was kind of visible but… not really a handle?!

So, I kind of put my hand near it in confusion and “bzzrt”, it came out of the door, allowing me to open the door. It was a cool experience.
Still not one I’d be ready to risk my life for, though.

This photo was apparently made in 2017.

Israel was already committing a genocide back then, but its magnitude was far lower than in the past few years.

Any idea of which are made by companies opposing genocides and which by the company that actively participates in a genocide?

Maybe it’s good to mention here that this plan was later cancelled, because the Swiss parliament voted against subvention for this train.
