I guess all the cows in the paddock right next to them were immune?

What noise? I was in a rural area taking this photo of one and even then, this close you had to listen carefully to hear anything: https://ibb.co/rmQRmyZ

Morons. I saw some on the weekend and drove as close as I could get to them to check it out. I was within getting messed up range if a blade came off and I could barely even hear it. This was rural with zero background noise as well. It’s almost like the complainers have never seen one in person.

Here is a pic of how close I was: https://ibb.co/rmQRmyZ

Yeah, I have a feeling that this is the case with my server. It does seem to be communities that I was already subscribed to having issues subscribing again.

Is there a process to undead an instance? I’m just saying that as I wiped my server a few weeks ago and created a new lemmy server from scratch with the same domain/details etc… I’m posting from it now so it kind of works I guess but will I be missing anything?

Critters or Ghoulies? Never watched the latter but the vhs tape cover had one coming out of the toilet:

My dad got me a poster of mogwai after watching the movie and attached it on the ceiling directly above my bed. Sure, he was the friendly one but fuck that shit! 10/10 dad humour.

In its defence, many scared stoners were also casualties of that movie.

Me watching Event Horizon… wow, a cool new sci-fi movie…. Then wtf?…… Great movie though.

I’m using it since doing the opposite and it works great on iOS. Not sure if it was different a while ago but you can set it as your auto fill password manager.

What, no Atari Lynx?

Same! I pay nearly double what I was paying for 100mbps but it’s worth it. As soon as the service was enabled in my building I signed up straight away. In the same place 3 years ago I was only getting 14mbps as my only option!

The original one back in the day multiplayer on dialup was awesome!

Agreed that close helps in general but 200-300ms isn’t really that noticeable unless it’s something where latency is important. I’m also surprised that some of the larger instances aren’t using Cloudflare for caching. If things like images etc… are cached all over the world then I doubt anyone would notice any speed issues.

Close to you? I’m running my own instance in France and I live in Australia. It works great. The problem is overloaded instances.

You mean the games/midi port.

I’m not sure, I’m still seeing your original comment now? Maybe it’s due to me replying via an admin account on my own instance of lemmy?

I mean more that it doesn’t show the local posts as anyone can still view them when they are not logged in.

It would be great if it only just let logged in users view the site and not mess with the federation settings.
