  • This meme was originally made for the !netsphere@sopuli.xyz community in an attempt to give a super niche manga artist fan place a little bit of engagement, I crossposted it here as an afterthought didn’t expect go be brigaded so hard by armchair memologist over the objective definition and location of the funny.

    You’re absolutely correct that you need to have read the Blame! manga to get the reference on this one to really enjoy, even if you did its not that deep. Not too much thought went into it I was high as shit just pasting icons with the ‘linux chad big energy beam, windows/microsoft wojak bad guys its fired at’. Im personally okay with not every one of my memes being super accessible or community bangers I had fun making this and putting the template together. If you get the humor or like the template great. If you don’t, oh well downvote say ‘where funny’ and move on with your life cause im not wasting my time explaining what a graviational beam emitter is to snobs who don’t care in the first place.




  • If money isnt a big issue and you want something truly beefy for a solar system I would recommend something like this then. Your solution is essentially a usbc-pd car charger without the ability to remove from a cigarette plug. You would achieve the same affect wiring up a female cigarette car plug and buying a regular pd car charger with the bonus of being able to swap the outlet out for other 12v car plugs as needed.

    If you want an integrated charger thats fine though at the end of the day theyre all just fancy variable dc to dc converters that take in 12-24v and pop out the usbc-pd voltage ranges as rated. just wanted to give you some options.

    Im a electical engineer and made my own 200w solar system. I feel your pain had to mcguyver some stuff to run off usbcpd. LMK if you want to talk shop. Related guide I wrote explaining USBC-pd and dc-to-dc on lemmy




  • Okay I think the term ‘foot-gun’ is supposed to evoke the image of someone loading a gun and pointing it at their own foot. I can’t help trying to picture a gun thats operated by a foot. Like a mech suit with a robot leg that also fires massive tank shattering shells when you do a roundhouse kick as a human operator. Or a veteran prosthetic leg that’s also a rifle when you kick it the right way.

    The brain rot seeps just a little bit more every time I see the term ‘foot-gun’ please help.








  • They are similar and use some of the same underlying technology powered by the readability library, but newswaffle gives more options on how to render the article (article mode, link mode, raw mode), it isolates images and gives them their own external url link you can click on, it tells you exactly how much cruft it saved from original webpage (something about seeing 99.x% lighter makes my brain tingle good chemicals). It works well with article indexes. You can bookmark a newswaffle page to get reader view by default instead of clicking a button in firefox toolbar. Hope these examples help.

    Would something like this interest you? Gemtext formatted to html is about as light weight as it gets. lots of automatic gemtext blog software on github that also formats and mirrors an html copy. Whenever a news page article gets rendered to gemtext through newswaffle it shrinks about 95-99% of the page size while keeping text intact. Let me know if you want some more information on gemini stuff.

    System Operator. In non-nerd speak, it was the person who owned and ran the local public fourms website on their home computer. Lemmys instance admins are usually sysops for example, as they have root admin privleges or direct hardware access to the computer that the Lemmy instance software runs on.

    This person is talking about an admin of a local fourm site early internet users used before centralized social media like MySpace and Facebook made Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) irrelevant.




  • Hi Hawke, I understand your fustration with needing to troubleshoot things. Steam allows you to import any exe as a ‘non-steam game’ to your library and run it with the proton compatability layer. I sometimes have success getting a GOG game installed by running the install exe through proton or wine. Make sure you are using the most up to date version of lutris many package managers are outdated flatpak will gaurentee its most up to date. Hope it all works out for you
