Interests: metal (esp. all things death), PC tech (esp. mechanical keyboards), horror (lit and film)
Profile picture credit: Godmachine - metalheads may know his style from the album art of releases like Carnifex’s GRAVESIDE CONFESSIONS
I [created and] moderate [email protected], and since it’s a niche interest on a fairly small platform, it’s mostly a ghost town, with me posting music I like. This works for me in that I never wanted to mod anything, just wanted to join a community I ended up having to create myself. Though it does feel a bit like shouting into the void.
As far as rules, yeah instance rules are the baseline, then you can stack whatever you want on top of that. Idk how to grow, I’m making everything up as I go along. I’ve been posting regularly myself to put the community on metalheads’ radar, maximizing the variety to try to throw a wide net, cross-posting very occasionally (ok I guess once lol) to related comms, and starting themes (“Secret Killers” for hidden-gem bands, “Left Field” for established bands that haven’t made it big somehow, and “Mods Are Drunk Friday” for posting zany stuff that otherwise might not fit).
Ah fair enough, I always forget about supply concerns
To question 2: the Elite-C was explicitly designed as a drop-in USB-C replacement for the Pro Micro (same pinout), so that’d be a safe option
Yep you can, but it probably has to be through the web interface instead of an app. I created [email protected] myself a few weeks ago, there were no restrictions. It’s literally just the button, then you go through a setup wizard.
Made me think of the MiniDox, but that takes standard switches. Someone seems to have made their own Choc version, but even then idk if the columnar stagger is pronounced enough…
The classic resource is ai03’s guide, successfully used it myself a couple years ago to design my current daily driver in KiCAD.
Incredible, excellent work!
A+ movie. Also makes me wish I could find the early 2000s TV series. It’s probably not worth revisiting, but I’d still like to try.
The videos I watched are out of date now RE specific tech, but Paul’s Hardware was a very useful reference when I built my first desktop in 2011. These days, Machines & More on YouTube would be a go-to (focused on small form-factor, but good emphasis on what’s useful and what’s marketing fluff)
You’ve tried the WORST, now try the THIRST-quencher
Ahh ok thanks! The beta was full by the time I’d tried, so I’m on the App Store version. Since clearly that feature’s been developed, hopefully it’ll come to the App Store version soon
This is my problem too - login has worked fine with Mlem, Memmy (iOS both), and web interface, but not Liftoff
Seconding Broadchurch, it’s incredible. Big Little Lies too. Poker Face arguably counts, with its Columbo-esque “just one more thing” motif. And The Flight Attendant gave me a lot more respect for Kaley Cuoco (of Big Bang Theory fame), though it’s also got some (darkly) comedic elements. Naturally, do a cursory search for all of these before passing them along: I enjoyed them, but idk what your grandparents are like…
