I do like that solution. The problem is than a ton of casinos have it. So the actual fix is more of a retrofit than a redesign to change where the USB is, which would require a recall.

Without revealing too much about myself, this was identified before the hacker convention and is already being fixed.

I don't understand why this is so tempting. It's clearly dangerous and even says not to do it.

Anyways, my mouth is ever slightly too small for one to accidentally slip in. But I could probably force it and not have the ability to crunch a plastic LED bulb to get it out.

Canvas Logo (pawb.social)
 

If you haven't heard, there as a Lemmy version of /r/Place this weekend called Canvas.

There was a bit of furry art (and a ton of Bronies), but I didn't see Pawb.social represented, so I decided to draw the logo.

Shoutout to @ArieTheFloof and @KoboldCoterie for jumping in to help!

But it's little Bill Cosby. Would you kill little baby Hitler?

Sure, I do something similar. I have a note for a person and I have a note for a recurring meeting. In a recurring meeting I have a Dataview field called Host.

#Meeting
This is my meeting note

Host:: [[John Doe]] 

In a Person note, I have a section for meetings the person hosts. I use Dataview to search for the Host field and see of it matches the current Person note.

#Person
This is John Doe's note.

# Meetings

dataview
table without ID file.link AS "Meeting"
from #Meeting
where contains(Host, this.file.link)

The new Properties feature sounds like it'll be what Dataview fields are. Except now it'll be in a native interface where I can easily change the information about the note.

 

Obsidian 1.4.0 is currently in early access and it introduces Properties!

This is a game changer for me! I've had to use Dataview and other plug-ins to achieve something similar, so I look forward to the native support.

I've been wanting to try that. I've only played the board game a few times and only recently learned about the RPG.

I wish I could figure out the physics of scaling a bat to a (smol) 5'. I'm curious if one would even be able to achieve lift jumping from the roof of a 2 story building or would they have to go base jumping.

What I meant was design bats so that their wings are a separate set of appendages from their arms and are connected to the back side of their torso. For example, Rouge the Bat:

Rouge the Bat

I do like how you described your world. It aligns with the first bullet point I made for embracing the animal design and exploring how that would affect how they live.

 

When it comes to anthropomorphic animals, designs tend to go in one of these directions:

  • Embrace animal design and differences in anatomy
  • Mostly human design with animal aesthetic

What I'm trying to envision is a world where furries evolved closer to the human design, but not completely.

What I would like to discuss is, how do you think bats would have developed, particularly their wings?

The "easiest" implementation is give them back wings. But that doesn't make sense evolutionarily. Bat wings are formed from their arms and "hands". Having an extra set of limbs emerge that replicates their "arm wings" they lost seems unlikely.

Ok, so how about leaving the wings on their arms? Sure. But now I want to toss another problem in this world. Hands gave us the ability to manipulate our environment and make tools. I feel that would have been a necessary step towards human-like intelligence.

Let's say their phalanges shrunk to be more finger like. This along with being human-sized should make their wings useless, right? Even if they kept long phalanges like they do now, would they still be able to have true flight?

If I assume the ability to fly is highly diminished, then the conclusion I'm making is that bats would prefer to maximize the ability to use their hands. In this world, bats would surgically remove the wing skin between their fingers to give them proper hands. Some may even remove all of it (and some fringe would keep it) allowing their arms to fit in standard clothing.

So, what do you think? Does this design make sense for this type of world? How would you design a bat?

I saw the first season when it first released and I'm generally enjoying it.

I get it's a kids show and Sonic stories are loosely connected, but I'm finding Sonic himself being too...reckless and unexperienced for where he should be. Like it felt like it took way too long for him to realize it's a multiverse situation and couldn't just snap Nine into remembering him.

Oh no! I had just heard of Nomad Complex a few weeks ago and got a couple shirts.

47% jump in warehouse rental in Vancouver...yikes. I'm hoping they're able to clear out enough stock before their lease ends. Then resume if they're able to come up with a long term plan.

I could see there being a correlation between cat owners and techies. How strong of a correlation though? We'll need a study for that.

And I'll have you know I have ferrets. Which some call cat snakes.

Stupid dinosaurs can't even make a rudimentary "might makes right" dictatorship. Even lions can do that.

As some of you may know, Yuji Naka was arrested for insider trading. He was just sentenced to 2.5 years in prison, 4 years of probation, and the equivalent of $1.2 million in fines.

I downloaded the app (Version 1.0.38), but unfortunately it immediately crashes when launching.

I'm using a Surface Duo 2 running Android 12. I saw a 1 star review in the Google Play Store saying they used a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 and had the same issue.

So I'm thinking it might have to do with foldable phones or at least non-standard screen aspect ratios or resolutions.

 

If you preorder Sonic Superstars you'll get:

  • Reversible Cover
  • Acryllic Display Stand
  • Lego Eggman In Game Skin

Repeat: Not a physical Lego Eggman minifig, but a skin. 🙃

 

Hey everypony!

Back when Friendship is Magic came out I very much enjoyed it. Not a surprise seeing as I was part of the primary target audience...a college aged man.

I have not watched any of Gen 5. Honest opinions. How's it compare to Gen 4?

 

I think I joined the Fediverse misunderstanding how it works. I went in under the belief that:

  • Under the hood, everything is an ActivityPub post
  • Lemmy, Mastodon, PixelFed, and PeerTube are "interfaces" or "views" for the underlying ActivityPub post
  • All 4 can interact with eachother
  • I only need 1 account

For the last point I found out that the answer is "yes...but actually no."

Based on the "ActivityPub Magic" thread (or Mastodon Post?), I see that Mastodon users can reply to the Lemmy thread (with some limitations) and follow Communities. Cool.

I see a Lemmy thread and a Mastodon post as serving 2 different purposes. Sometimes they overlap. But maybe I want to post something on my Mastodon timeline just for something general going on in my life that I don't necessarily want to post into a Lemmy community. Now let's say I started with a Lemmy account.

Unless I'm wrong, the only way to make that post would be to make a Mastodon account that's seperate from my existing Lemmy account.

I thought part of the beauty of the Fediverse was that someone could be following "me" and choose whatever "interface" they want. Instead it looks like they would be following "me@Lemmy", "me@Mastodon", "me@PixelFed", and "me@PeerTube".

And then there's the whole defederation of instances maybe requiring multiple accounts, but that's another topic. Now, to be clear I do see the use case of having multiple accounts for different instances (e.g. having a furry account and a general one).

Is there a roadmap for "merging" accounts between platforms? I understand that question might be more towards Lemmy/Mastodon/etc. developers than server admins, but just seeing if anyone here knows.

 

If you're not familiar with Peter Knetter, he's primarily a Sonic YouTuber. While a lot of his videos are shit posts, sometimes he makes some impressive arts and crafts.

Persoanlly I think this makes a good play in the background video.

 

Anyone looking forward to Sonic Superstars? It's looking like the proper modern sequel to the originals that Sonic 4 should've been.
