@atomicpoet @retrogaming yup, I used to play the Wii through a projector and it's AWESOME

@dansup@mastodon.social do they actually federate via AP?

[–] oblomov@sociale.network 2 points 6 months ago

@atomicpoet thanks for doing this, I was collating a list of the unreactive servers myself, but bidding your post is easier ;-)
Can confirm that these are the only servers that I'm still getting spam from in this wave.

Inigo Montoya to Vizzini in «The Princess Bride»: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

@trwnh@mastodon.social actually what made me think of “extensions of email and newsgroups” was more the object structure, but on second thought that's more an ActivityStream characteristic than an ActivityPub one, although an actual implementation of the C2S part of AP would still fit the bill in some sense.

(Yeah, the lack of usage of DELETE and PATCH surprised me initially, but the fact it would have needed to also define how to propagate them partially explains it.)

@trwnh@mastodon.social this was a fascinating read, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the blog post.

I've had thoughts along those lines since I've started using Mastodon and getting familiar with AP, which I always saw as an extension of email and Usenet rather than a more general tool for the “social web” —and even for that it's being held back by the absence of a “content independent” AP server (AFAIK the only one in development is Vocata, and it still has some way to go).

@rglullis @Rooki (OT: the last paragraph in the post has a couple of typos. I believe it should be TINSTAAFL (also I recommend making it an abbr for the less informed), and there is an “under” that should probably be “understand”)

@HipsterTenZero @chloyster

I only just found this but, in case you're still testing things, here's a couple of hints:

  1. it is possible to navigate in the dark;
  2. it is possible to climb even without stairs, so you can usually get out of subterranean pits even tool-less; it's extremely rare to get into an actual “save-ender” situation
  3. as your tech level progresses, you'll discover ways to automate most things;
  4. do focus on getting ore; there are hints in the rock to where it may be.
 

A curious math problem I came up with: given a target, what's the fewest digits an integer must have (in a given base) to contain all integers from 0 to the target, as substrings?

@mathematics @math@lemmy.ml @math@kbin.social

e.g. for a target of 19 a candidate representative would be 1011213141516171819 in base 10, that has 19 digits. Can it be done in less, or is $\sigma_10(19) = 19$?
Can we find a general rule? Any properties of this function?

@SuperSynthia @dvdnet62 I'll explain in two very simple words.

@marv99 @Jenztsch I've also noticed that some games have patch .sh files too
