Dies ist die Grafik der Stimmen für die letzten Beiträge auf !apocalypticart@feddit.de.

Vielleicht ist das nur ein Zufall, aber ich finde es etwas seltsam, dass die Stimmen genau dann auf fast Null gesunken sind, als lemm.ee[^1] und feddit.de[^2] auf v0.19 aktualisiert haben.

EDIT: From a comment by @Fleppensteijn@feddit.nl in the original post:

I’m getting a LemmyAPIException when I try to upvote since yesterday. Now I notice I’m getting the same error when I try to post from the app.

EDIT-2: Another comment by @maegul@lemmy.ml:

the question then becomes when the last post was made to apocalyptic art. From my quick glance it was 4 days ago on the lemmy.ml mirror, which seems behind the most recent posts on the actual community. Lemmy.ml is on the newest version.

So my guess is that there’s some general federation issue, possibly on the feddit.de end, which is causing some things to get dropped.

Sudden decrease in votes on apocalypticart@feddit.de after 0.19 upgrade

This is the chart of the votes for the latest posts on !apocalypticart@feddit.de.

This may be just a coincidence, but I find a bit weird that the votes went down to almost zero exactly when lemm.ee[^3] and feddit.de[^4] upgraded to v0.19.

(low-res) video: SQUID Device from Strange Days - YouTube

This is the actual hero prop used in the movie. The 'face plate' was interchangeable to make it look like several different units throughout the film. I made this video just to show that it still functions and what the prop actually does when turned on. (Which isn't much, some LEDs come on and the disc inside spins up...)

The author Shawn Speakman has an  wonderful epic new novel out, The King-Killing-Queen, the first in a new series of fantasy stories for him. I had the privilege to illustrate the work with nine interior illustrations and a full color plate (which I have shared recently on MuddyColors. )

From the video description:

Ever hear that the neutral zone in Yars' Revenge uses the game's code for its graphics? How does it work, and is it possible to reverse engineer that code just from playing the game? It's all explained right here.

宝可梦图鉴的设计,在细节上有借鉴过其他艺术家的设计以及官方设计图,很遗憾的是没有对屏幕内UI做设计处理(偷懒)

The design of the Pokémon Pokédex draws on the designs of other artists and official design drawings in terms of details. Unfortunately, there is no design processing for the on-screen UI (lazy)

My 2 cents: I have a similar relation with smartphones as yours.

In my case, what I fear the most is some app getting my contact list and using it to send some kind of "XXX has joined YYY service" notification to all of them. Also, I didn't like that Google had all the data they wanted, so I ended with 2 smartphones:

  • One de-googled (LineageOS without Google Apps) that I use for calls and trusted apps. This one has my contacts list.
  • One default Android-Google without simcard for those apps that require oficial-Android (mainly banks apps) and any app I'm afraid could mess with the contact list.

AFAIK I've only had one incident because I trusted Telegram too much. There is always non-zero risk, but this works for me.

This is not OC, sorry for the confussion. I only add [Not OC] in the title in communities where most of the content is OC.

I was going to suggest yt-dlp, but this seems to be for android... right? In that case, I don't know if yt-dlp works there.

Anyway, for those on PCs, you can use yt-dlp "PLAYLIST_URL".

Some useful options:

  • --download-archive videos.txt: this will keep track of downloaded files in case you want to interrupt an continue later. You can change the filename videos.txt to whatever you want.
  • -R infinite --file-access-retries infinite --fragment-retries infinite --retry-sleep http:exp=1:20 --retry-sleep fragment:exp=1:20 --retry-sleep file_access:exp=1:20 --retry-sleep extractor:exp=1:20: infinite retries for different error types, for those with unreliable connections.
  • -o "%%(playlist_index)s - %%(title)s.%%(id)s.%%(ext)s": output file format
  • --cookies cookies.txt: if it's a private list, you will need to provide your (yt-logged-in-)browser cookies. See cookies.txt add-on.

This red button

The design is a bit overloaded and it's not really clear what the button does.

[From another comment]

I'm currently writing a short story about the Fediverse.

For literary purposes I would suggest Rhizoverse, based on Deleuze's and Guattari's Rhizome philosophical concept.
