What were you up to during the outage?!
Mostly sleeping, handily.
I ended up watching some new anime. Ranma ½ (2024) is kind of bonkers, in a fun way.
SDF is a quirky instance, isn’t it? It might go down once in a while, but at least to me, it feels more like a community system than some of the bigger instances. I love that it hasn’t made Cloudflare an observer and gatekeeper of everything we read and write on Lemmy.
Hey, thanks for telling me about the Ranma ½ remake. I loved it as a teenager, looking forward to watch the remake.
In that case, I think you’ll appreciate the voice cast in this new adaptation.
It’s a top-tier remake. Gorgeous animation and lovingly faithful
Yep. Watched a few episodes. It’s great.
Thank you for bringing it back online, I was worried it might be down for a while! Welcome back :)
Nice to meet everyone by the way, I’m new to SDF, just getting to grips with stuff.
It wasn’t me (I don’t work for SDF😅)… it was @[email protected]!
I suppose the server has to catch up now, right? There seems to be plenty of stale discussions.
Yeah, the newest thing I can see was 14 hours ago
Less than 0… how?
no idea, but at the current progression youre lookin at >10hrs to achieve sync
I give it 7 days as usual to stabilize.
HOW ARE YOU GENTLEMEN
Just finished chanting “S.D.F. come back” while kneeling inside a pentagram surrounded by stickers and magnetic tapes. Pretty good overall.
But were they MATA stickers?
of course not https://sdf.org/store/
I smoked a pack of these in anticipation:
Thank you for your service 🫡
That picture always reminds me of a SysAdmin that I worked with a while back at a DC. He was an old school Perl and BSD guy and always smoked unfiltered rollies.
a pentagram
Oh! That’s why. It’s SDF, not your neighborhood technodemons. Should have been a bigram, so that the machine spirits could understand without converting numerical bases.
Snuggles and kisses 😘
Waiting for it to come back lol. Was this scheduled or is something going on?
I couldn’t tell you because I don’t know, lol🤷♂️.
Welcome back, sdf family!
I knew something was up as soon as I couldn’t vote on anything. Good to be back.
I was just on my backup account on .ml There’s some commandline tool i use to sync my subs between the two that runs on my server whenever i do monthly update/backup
That’s a cool idea… I should steal that! What’s the tool that you use?
Nice! Thanks!
Sleeping
Glad I didn’t notice. Welcome back, all.
I listened to my intrusive thoughts and filled a cheap fountain pen with (dye-based) printer ink.
I hoped for the darkest black, but it actually looks gray when used with a pen :(
But yeah, it works. It feathers and bleeds through a lot on cheap paper, but it works. By that I mean that it bleeds even through 120g/m2 printer paper. Maybe I could try drying it a bit first…
Might look good with cyan.Oh no. Now I’m thinking about whether I can make fountain pen ink work in my ecotank printer.
I doubt it.
Although, I guess ecotank will have piezoelectric nozzles since they’re permanent, so there shouldn’t be a problem with how it behaves under heat, but viscosity (if that’s the right word) and particle size…
Sounds like a bad idea.
Probably a terrible idea. I do also have a sacrificial HP in the garage to rip apart and try to implement a FOSS/OSHW controller for at some point. Maybe I’ll try with that eventually, supposing I can hack together a nozzle.
I have decided that now is the time, finally, to read those Buffy and Angel comics.
Nice!
