Run k3s on top and run your stateless services on a lightweight kubernetes, then you won’t care you have to reboot your hosts to apply updates?

StarVector is a foundation model for generating Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) code from images and text. It utilizes a Vision-Language Modeling architecture to understand both visual and textual inputs, enabling high-quality vectorization and text-guided SVG creation.

I was just thinking about an img2svg generator. I was tying to get Claude to do it earlier today with poor results.

I guess it depends on the coin. Probably would work given the sdcard outline would be hard to notice if it even registers. Xray of coins

I’m pretty sure an xray will go through a hollowed out coin showing the sd card and then you’re fucked.

If you’re presented your Steam games from inside Xbox app, they will present asa game from the Xbox service.

Buying games from Steam is braindead simple, so not sure what you’re on about there. Can’t get much simpler than punch in billing and CC info once, add games to cart and checkout; subsequent purchases is even easier.

Isn’t that misleading the consumer? They will think the games are Xbox games and not Steam games. They will come to resent the 2nd launcher, aka Steam, and Microsoft’s EEE will be complete.

It’s the little things that always add up. It’s not the lack of feature but their dismissal of it I guess.

Good to know. My experience with nginx is definitely on the light end. I much prefer traefik I guess coming from k3s world.

As if I needed another reason to avoid nginx.

Seems like a very simple, lightweight and elegant solution to keeping the engine up to modern standards. If they were serious about keeping complexity out they wouldn’t have such garbage site configuration.

Where can I find the protocol specifications?

Partially.

Same except I latched onto CZ and found a scouzknivez community. Then WoW happened. Then I got dragged onto CSS and ended up running a clan for a while. CSGO and 2 never had an appeal for me.

1.6 relies on community hosted servers, 2 relies primarily on centralized servers and queueing mechanism. There are changes to core maps. Changes to weapons. 2 very much has the features you would expect from a modern game. 1.6 is very bare bones, but highly customizable through addons; each server can install their own addons and make the user experience unique. Hopefully this 1.6 remake will keep the server customizability intact.

Great question! Unlike Lemmy, which relies on federation with dedicated servers, Plebbit is fully peer-to-peer (P2P) and does not have a central server or even instances. Instead, storage happens via a combination of IPFS and users seeding data. Here’s how it works:

Where Is Plebbit’s Data Stored?

1. Subplebbit Owners Host the Data (Like Torrent Seeders)

   • Each subplebbit owner runs a Plebbit node that stores and republishes their own community’s data.
   • Their device (or a server, if they choose) must be online 24/7 to ensure the subplebbit remains accessible.
   • If a subplebbit owner goes offline, their community disappears unless others seed it—very similar to how torrents work.

2. Users Act as Temporary Seeders

   • Any user who visits a subplebbit automatically stores and seeds the content they read.
   • This means active users help distribute content, like in BitTorrent.
   • If a user closes their app and no one else is seeding the content, it becomes unavailable until the owner comes back online.

3. IPFS for Content Addressing

   • Posts and comments are stored in IPFS, which ensures that popular content remains available longer.
   • Unlike a blockchain, there is no permanent historical ledger—if no one is seeding, the data is gone.
   • Each post has a content address (CID), meaning that as long as someone has the data, it can be re-fetched.

4. PubSub for Live Updates

   • Plebbit uses peer-to-peer pubsub (publish-subscribe messaging) to broadcast new content between nodes in real-time.
   • This helps users see new posts without needing a central server to pull updates from.

What Happens If Everyone Goes Offline?

• If no one’s online to seed a subplebbit, it’s as if it never existed.
• This is a trade-off for infinite scalability—it removes the need for central databases but relies on community participation.
• Think of it like a dead torrent—no seeders, no content.

Comparison With Lemmy

Bottom Line: No Servers, Just Users

• With Lemmy: The instance owner has to host everything themselves like a mini-Reddit admin.
• With Plebbit: The subplebbit owner AND users seed the content—no one has to host a centralized database.
• If something is popular, it stays alive.
• If something isn’t seeded, it disappears, just like torrents.

It’s a radical trade-off for decentralization and censorship resistance, but if no one cares about a community, the content naturally dies off. No server, no mods deleting you from a database—just pure P2P.

Hope that clears it up! 🚀

Plebbit only hosts text. Images from google and other sites can be linked/embedded in posts. This fixes the issue of hosting any nefarious content.

Nowhere in the project whitepaper or FAQ does it talk about banning image hosting. Base64 encoding images in the text post is trivial, so maybe OP is the one projecting this intent or feature?
