I need to try a DSVania rando some day, I loved Dawn of Sorrow

Though Lemmy has funding for full-time developers.

barely, edited it to say low funding

I hope the plugin system will attract more contributors, especially since it supports a variety of languages

It’s very hard for people to accept that there are other things that may need to be worked on before their requested fix/feature. Every big project has a huge backlog of issues/feature requests, you can’t do them all in 1 day or even 1 year. Especially with low funding lol.

then I wonder what the cutoff is for “low power charger” because I don’t think I’ve ever seen that, it could probably stand to be increased a bit

there was a discussion about this same post before, I’ll just copy paste my comment…

That post complains about not being able to view/manage images hosted by your instance, but v0.19.4 already fixed that last week? So that kinda disproves them saying the Lemmy developers didn’t want it to be possible. Also the post complains about the amount of storage used by caching images but that was also fixed/improved in v0.19.4

below 5W, then the charger is considered “slow,” and the message “charging slowly” is shown on the lock screen. If the power is above 7.5W, then it’s considered “fast,” and the “charging rapidly” message is shown instead. If the power is between 5 and 7.5W, then the charger is seen as “normal,” and the lock screen simply says the phone is “charging.”

Seems to be a purely cosmetic change. I was wondering if the OS has any different behavior when charging quickly (like being more aggressive with running background processes, and running updates/backups) but the article didn’t say anything about that.

If my phone was only charging at 5 or 6W I’d want to know the charger is garage. That might not even be enough to use the phone without losing battery. What they really need is to rename “slow” to “very slow”, and then 5W to 7.5W could be considered the new “slow”. The intent being that “very slow” is problematically slow (maybe the OS scheduler could pretend the phone is not charging). And “slow” charging would just be for mild inconvenience.

If only the phone could just tell me the actual number of watts it’s charging at lol. Even if it’s rounded and averaged.

I think it’s just a comparison because during the Reddit Exodus people often suggested Discuit instead of Lemmy because ActivityPub is “too complicated”. So I guess this is a good demonstration that federation really is our best hope at replacing the big billionaire social media platforms.

As another point of reference vs Discuit’s 6,787 registered users, Lemmy has 1,904,195 registered users. Kbin has 66,175, and Mbin has 5,453 registered users.

ReVamped is such an obviously good name lol

It is federated yeah, I see Lemmy posts/users/communities

I still don’t think the best solution to an under-staffed team is to try to make a competing under-staffed team. I think just contributing would be more helpful for all, especially with the plugin support coming soon to Lemmy

how long until Sublinks catches up to Lemmy?

Their other complaint about not being able to view a list of users, there’s an open issue for that, give it a thumbs up reaction if you think it should be prioritized (github lets you sort by them like upvotes) https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2450

Yeah I did take the age into account, I just figured it’s over a 10x difference and not all of that would be due to battery age.

My mom is still using my release day Galaxy S9+ lol

very interesting, I wonder if the difference is due to the Pixel 8 Pro having a variable refresh rate screen, maybe also because it has a higher resolution screen and different graphic drivers

but with Chrome being about 10x more efficient on P8P than P4a, I’m guessing the variable refresh rate is a big factor there that Firefox isn’t using as optimally

I think someone else would’ve eventually used BSP for games. The genius move was doing it per column instead of every pixel or per row, so that it could run on a 386. This imposed some restrictions on the level geometry but it made the game possible at the time, otherwise we might not have seen BSP in a game until the Pentium at the earliest.

And then making the textures stored in columns instead of rows because the whole game was drawing in columns was another great move.

Pretty cool stuff. Is there any way to see what communities make up a club?

the Summit app also allows this

there already is one https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

I haven’t heard of that one before, looks like more of a strategy game than this one, seems cool!
