Damn I didn’t know Solutech went out of business. I like(d) their filament and still have a couple spools left.

The link mentions that it is only ran as part of a debian or RPM package build. Not to mention that on Arch sshd is not linked against liblzma anyways.

I came to the harsh reality and conclusion that when it comes to platform maturity and stability, Kbin is years behind thanks to constant errors across the website sometimes, bugs and other instabilities, this also lead me to reconsider supporting and coming back to Lemmy

I started running my own personal kbin instance in June and had to face that realization a few months in. I just recently (~2 weeks ago) took it down and started up a lemmy server instead. It’s something I should have done months ago because it requires an order of magnitude more resources to run kbin compared to lemmy. I guess it was too appealing to have both mastodon and lemmy in one place, but neither of those things worked well enough to be worth the trouble.

At any rate, your thread on reddit about kbin was one of the reasons I ventured out into the fediverse as well as one of the reasons I chose to run kbin over lemmy. Thanks for the time and effort you put into doing all that!

Install pacman-contrib, this gives you access to pacdiff which goes through all your pacnew files allowing you to see diffs of the changes and giving you different options to deal with them.

pcpartpicker is a fantastic resource for putting together a new build.

As far as lemmy communities go, there’s also !buildapc and !buildapc

Kbin allows user-level instance blocking, so that functionality should be feasible to implement in lemmy eventually.

There’s some decent explanations in this thread: https://lemmy.world/post/1097946

It kinda looks like a really purple Lyreleaf Sage: https://littleprinceplants.com/our-plants/perennials/salvia-lyrata-purple-volcano-lyreleaf-sage/

I’m no expert, but that looks like it could be a Canna lily, probably just called arrowroot locally:https://media.sciencephoto.com/image/b7400814/800wm/B7400814-Canna_lily_leaves_Canna_x_generalis_.jpg

In one of Ernest’s posts last week he mentioned that account deletions need to be handled manually for now. I’m not sure how long it takes him to work through through the queue, but he mentioned in the post that if for some reason you need that done sooner you can send him an email through the contact form starting with “DELETE MY ACCOUNT” so he can prioritize that.

You know, the funny thing is that might actually work! There are things that LLMs are made to censor that real humans would still be be able to talk about. Granted, most those things would probably get us in trouble or put on a list, so I’m not sure how feasible that would be Maybe a decent idea would be if we could all pick a ‘safe-word’ out of those things that could be used to tell humans from bots.

Unfortunately they seem to have already been doing that as well. There was a thread in r/programming before the blackout where people were commenting about the number of other comments that were in opposition to the blackout. The whole thread was filled with people finding that most of them were LLM bots:

I doubt Reddit would use bots for German opinions

I can see this (and am posting from) from my personal kbin instance, so it seems to be working!
