So I wanted to design a children's toy, where the electronics could last 100 years (ignoring mechanical abuse). I figured some people here might be interested....

I cannot recall the last time I was swayed by an advertisement.

I've just joined Lemmy and I need something to fill that RIF shaped hole.

The more that content on the web is “locked down” with more stringent API requests and identity verification, e.g. Twitter, the more I wonder if I should be archiving every single HTTP request my browser makes. Or, rather, I wonder if in the future there will be an Archive Team style decentralized network of hoarders who, as...

I saw another post asking how to set up Soulseek and, at first glance, it looks like those old P2P file sharing platforms, like eMule, Kazaa or Limewire....

I want to change all my reddit comments to say I'm migrating to Lemmy/Kbin. I think this is more effective than deleting comments, as I've heard rumors reddit is restoring deleted comments. I can't find a good script to do that. What's everyone else using to do that? Thanks!...

Looks like Apollo is done. RIP Apollo and goodbye Reddit

[REPOST]...

On the Internet Archive you can get a few different alpha versions of the game Outer Wilds, and a demo version too. But there’s an older version that I can’t seem to find anywhere....

I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don’t like but has an alternative?

And make sure not to click on any links. If enough people use chatgpt or other LLM's to generate comments that are wordy but clearly just filler, it'll give advertisers pause and tank the value of the site as training data. Reddit's response will probably be to start banning users it thinks are doing this but normal users will...

I use Playnite as a launcher for my pirated games. It would be nice to have a way to sync my save games between devices somehow....

I realized I interacted / posted / commented less and less on reddit these last couple of years. Couldn't even tell you why exactly. Now I've been here for a week and, I don't know, I just like interacting again... Hope it stays like this for a while :)

Something that I really appreciate after moving here from Reddit: I can finally edit titles!...

I’ve been looking for a simple low-voltage cutoff circuit for a 12v SLA battery, but many of the ones I find have reviews saying that the protection circuit itself drains the battery slowly as well. Is this just inherent in the design, where it has to draw a little to measure the voltage, or are there low-voltage cutoffs that...

I’m putting this together because I posted a while ago about using IRC to acquire ebooks on Reddit, and there was a metric shit ton of interest from others in learning how to do it. Much of this info is available on the net, but it can be difficult to track down if you don’t know exactly what to look for....

Does federation have a bit of a learning curve? No doubt....

summary: we have !usnews for US news now. please use that going forward for most US news you’ve previously posted here...

I’m a bit worried that making a new post for each of those communities could look a bit like spamming, so I decided to include all three of them that are about game franchises in the Tom Clancy universe in this one post:...

Since we are all pirates moving away from Reddit I was thinking if another r/Megalinks style community could be made on Lemmy and survive? (Or pehaps already exists?)...
