I don't know if everyone here is just a galaxy brain or what, but I'm surprised nobody has asked or explained the joke. The red bird is a CPU running lines of assembly instructions and the crow is user input causing an interrupt to press the e key. This particular type of interrupt exists because it would feel really bad if you were typing, and the text didn't show up until several seconds later when the CPU felt like processing the (hopefully) buffered input.

Quality meme op

I mean the man is directly responsible for blocking several Supreme Court justices from being appointed while Obama was president, which led to roe v wade being overturned so uh, Moscow Mitch couldn’t drop dead any faster in my opinion.

A new blackout tracker just dropped on the Discord: https://darktotal.com/

YSK: I can’t think of anything to post 😂

You’re never too old to learn when to use where vs were ;)

Can we hold off on this for a bit while things settle? I personally posted a story about investor concerns over Reddit’s blackout here because of the high visibility and because beehaw.org was blocking instances. Lo and behold they have blocked us so I guess it was a good call even though their Tech community would have been a better fit. I could have also made a new community here I suppose, but again, there’s no eyes on that.

Isn't lemmy.world literally like 15 days old? Let's not be too quick to turn this into a Discord server with 50 channels and 10 users. There's nothing wrong with piling everything in one place when there's barely any content to speak of anyways.

EDIT: I just created a new community to repost these locked posts in order of most comments:

General - Lemmy.world

We need to walk before we can run. The Active filter has been stagnant so we’re barely crawling. Since /c/lemmyworld is now off limits, hopefully this will suffice for now.

Negative people are always saying we'll never see anything like the early internet again with how everything is owned by corporations, but this last week on Lemmy has come damn close for me! Time to go be nostalgic about asking A/S/L in AIM chatrooms while watching flash animations on https://joecartoon.com/ eh @CoffeeBlood91@lemmy.ca?

(I can't believe that site is still running!)

So I guess the next question is do we now recreate beehaw communities that were popular and fragment the community, or do we make accounts on a smaller instance that has access to beehaw.org and lemmy.world? I’m not about to start logging in and out of multiple accounts because beehaw mods are getting butt hurt…

YSK: This doesn’t work in DuckDuckGo because I just independently had the idea to try this a few days ago and returned no results. I didn’t think to try on Google. I believe DuckDuckGo is running on Microsoft Bing so it likely doesn’t work there either

You can actually use https://lemmymap.feddit.de/ to get an idea of how free a particular lemmy instance is thanks to the option to show blocks. Lemmy.world seems to be the only large instance that has not been blocked by or blocked any other instances

The voyager web app literally just got this feature today.

I can’t wait! I it’s almost impossible to browse All on New with the influx of content forcing everything down nonstop

No worries! Usually the memes here aren’t so technical. I only got the joke because I was required to take a class on operating systems for my degree, and we covered interrupts.

Hard disagree like others. Going to an instance already takes you to “Local” and “Active”, which is literally the “Default Communities” because it’s what’s active on that instance. Quit trying to fit Lemmy into a Reddit box because it‘s not always necessary.

They’ve unfortunately been doing scummy things for a very long time as well. Over a decade ago I banked with them and my account went a few dollars negative. They charged eight dollars a day every day for like a month and a half and refused to reverse it so I just let it go to collections.

Oh that's a great one as well! The graph bottom right tracking individual subs over time is super helpful

I haven't seen it posted yet so here's another place for memes if that's what you're looking for: https://lemmy.world/c/memes@lemmy.ml

Feel free to go post somewhere there and mention me, and I'll make you a mod since @ruud@lemmy.world wants a few mods per community from a post of his I saw elsewhere. I'm sure your icon and banner can still be useful. :)

Apparently you can't have a thumbnail image and a video link so I put the thumbnail image in the description

I’ve heard nothing but good things about this one. Definitely checking it out

Okay so it’s not just me. Wild

“What are communities you want to see, but don’t want to moderate?”

Nine Parchments is interesting. I didn’t know the developers of Trine have been keeping so busy

It’s to select the language your post is in. I left it undetermined for this post so new users could still see it.

We do have a General community

General - Lemmy.world

Welcome to Lemmy.World General! This is a community for general discussion where you can get your bearings in the fediverse, discuss topics & ask questions that don’t seem to fit in any other community.

For server-specific announcements & questions, please see Lemmyworld, and if you’re really new to all this, check out the Newcomers community, but anything else? That’s what General’s for!

https://lemmy.world/c/general

!general@lemmy.world

It was created because posts like yours were getting locked in /c/lemmyworld. If you haven't already, post this in https://lemmy.world/c/newcommunities

As a matter of fact, we actually already have an introduction topic: https://lemmy.world/post/177286

You and I both know your average Redditor isn’t going to stumble upon exploding heads, dbzer0, or some other niche instance. They’re going to end up at lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, shitjustworks, or kbin.social. If they don’t like what they see on one of the generalized aggregators, then how would a “default community” view be any different?

I just checked, and Beehaw has defederated with 388 instances. Either the fediverse is overrun with nazis, or you're making a massive generalization and Beehaw is being ridiculous.

Beehaw banned 5 users from lemmy.world of like 20,000 and decided to defederate (block) the entire instance (server). You’re posting on a copy stored locally and only other lemmy.world users will see your comments.

Always a good one! We also just played through that again recently. :)

We actually just looked into Destiny 2 the other day, and it seems the game is taking a pay to win nosedive. +1 for Portal 2 and Borderlands. I’ll take a look at the others. Thanks!

That is a good one yeah! Very silly and over the top

Helldivers looks interesting. Based on the trailer on Steam I’m getting a starship troopers vibe.

I have fond memories of playing Trine 2 with some online friends. We haven’t gotten around to #3 yet with all the shortcomings

/c/TitleGore

But really though, are you asking if anyone has any communities they want to make so you can moderate them? I’m so confused

This was surprisingly interesting! Thanks for posting it. I didn't think there was anything noteworthy to glean from it, but @Contramuffin@lemmy.world mentioned down below that USB doesn't have interrupts, which I was unaware of. I especially liked how he covered different types of USB keyboards running at different speeds, and he briefly covered n-key rollover, or the lack thereof on the two keyboards he had on hand as well as why some key combinations fail due to shared wiring in the keyboard. The latency discussion between PS/2 interrupting and USB being polled for data at the end of the video was also fascinating.

Edit: Ben Eater did a follow-up video on how n-key rollover works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lPzTU-3ONI

I found hunt showdown to be way too serious and difficult lol. I’m trying to stay away from pvp shooters as well. Great game if it’s what you’re looking for though

Ah I see. I’ve never heard the term PWA, but yeah I did that as well for lemmyworld on iOS. My one complaint is there doesn’t seem to be a way to refresh the “app”
