That seems very unlikely as the Switch was incredibly successful and Nintendo has no reason to merge with anyone.

The only one of the three big console producers that is likely to change to a different model regarding hardware is Microsoft. Maybe they will not drop out entirely, but it is unlikely that they will try to compete again with a future PS6.

And Sony is still complaining about bad sales... I wonder if Microsoft will even bother with another console again. I guess they will pull a SEGA and just start selling games on other consoles.

Trail of Voyager UI on SLRPNK (voyager.slrpnk.net)
submitted 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

We are testing the Voyager alternative Lemmy UI on https://voyager.slrpnk.net/

There is not a huge difference compared to using the official .apk but some users on alternative platforms like Ubuntu Touch might appreciate having this option directly in the browser. It should be also possible to install it as a PWA this way.

Of course it also works in a desktop browser, but Voyager is really more optimized for mobile touch screens.

Please let us know if there are any issues with it.

I wonder what happens if the cable that carries this much power breaks under water. And even if it doesn't break the elecro-magnetic field around it is gonna be massive.

But anyway, other similar projects have either failed (plans to build such a giant solar-farm in Morocco) or have pivoted to "green" hydrogen as the energy transport medium.

Yes, for example there is /c/balconygardening here on the SLRPNK Lemmy and all the moderators of that community with an SLRPNK account can also edit the community specific wiki over here: https://wiki.slrpnk.net/balconygardening:start

These permisions are automatic and you can create as many wiki pages as you like under the specific wiki namespace.

Edit: Let me see if there is a nice QR code externsion for Dokuwiki that I can add. Edit: Ah: if you click on the menu and select "Export as PDF" the resulting PDF also includes a QR code to the page already.

Edit2: after reading your post again: yes you can of course also just link to external already existing website in a new Lemmy community that you create here.

For longform blogs we host Movim (which is also a nice federated chat app for Jabber/XMPP) and in addition we have a Dokuwiki where community moderators can make a dedicated wiki. Both are integrated with our Lemmy instance here, so you can just use your existing account user and password to log in.

They are a bit slow with releases, but Dino is under active development.

I guess for now this shouldn't be a big problem and the next release will fix that for sure.

An air-to-water heat-pump and a solar-thermal (vacuum tubes) hot water heater combination.

Check your language settings, at least "English" and "Undetermined" needs to be selected otherwise it hides posts.

No one in their right mind goes out and stabs their flatmate and a random 70 year old passerby, not even a wanna be terrorist. The deeply racist UK juridical system is not a good reference for deciding this.

And I am not here to do research for you, but if you spend even 5 minutes googling you will easily find that right-wing politically movitated violet crime easily dwarfs those figures (despite systematic under reporting of those by the police).

And while you are at it, look up domestic violence figures which are also orders of magnitude higher, even if you just count the ones with deaths or serious injuries.

Please consider finding a different news source next time as anything from Sky news is almost by default against rule 3 of this community.

This incident wasn't a terrorist attack though, but rather a single individual with apparent mental health issues. Such attacks happen all the time, and this one only made the news because a person was killed and the attacker was of a certain ethic background.

Furthermore 208 attacks in a span of 18 years is laughably low, especially when compared to the thousands of right-wing attacks that happened during the same time.

I happen to know the approximate area where this is being trialed, and a bike (even an electric one) is really only an alternative for hard-core all-weather bikers that have no problem driving 60+ kilometres a day.

The distances are just too far, the weather too bad 80% of the year, and the shrinking, elderly population too low density for other means of public transport to work economically.

The options are really either cars, such kind of novel ideas, or abandoning these tiny villages all together.

This is an industrial designed exercise bike from Lithuania that can store 2KWh of electricity generated by your own exercise.

On the weekend of the 11/12th of May the server which runs the XMPP, Movim and Wiki will undergo extended maintenance and will not be available for a few hours. We need to upgrade the main OS and improve some other things.

The main Lemmy service should not or only minimally affected and we will likely migrate the wiki over to that server to make it available more quickly again.

As usual, no exact time frame, but it will likely happen on Saturday or Sunday morning UTC timezone.

Somewhat contrarian take, but despite the click-baity title it does have some good points.
