A community about dogs.

Breeds, tips and tricks about training and behaviour, news affecting dog owners, canine photography, dog-related art and any questions related to dog ownership.

Rules

  1. Posts must be related to dogs or dog ownership and must not be void of content.
  2. This is a neutral space. No bigotry or personal attacks. Criticism should be polite and constructive.
  3. No automated content. This includes AI generated imagery, post body, articles, comments or automated accounts.
  4. No advertising or self-promotion.
  5. Illegal or unethical practices are frowned upon, and any comments or posts suggesting them will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, backyard breeding, ear and tail cropping, fake service animals, negative reinforcement, alpha/pack/dominance theory, and eugenics.
  6. No judging or attacking community members who care for dogs with cropped ears, docked tails, or those from puppy mills or questionable sources. While we discourage these practices (per Rule 5), all dogs deserve loving homes and compassionate care regardless of their background or physical alterations.
  7. No breed discrimination, all breeds welcome. Our stance matches the ASPCA's official stance and is not up for debate.
  8. Citing your sources when making a claim is encouraged. Misinformation will be removed.
  9. When posting an image containing text, provide alt text in the post body. This helps users with limited vision participate in our community. Providing alt text on all image posts is strongly encouraged.

Hello @LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone!

As per Rule 9, it is now mandatory to provide alt text for posts where the main content is text. This especially includes meme macros.

You can either use the built-in Lemmy feature for image alt, or place it in the post body.

Please refer to this post if you have any further questions.

Cheers!

I tend to think of it as stuck at boot waiting for some volume to spin up and feed needed data for the rest of the boot process to continue.
