What's the difference between a chickpea and a garbanzo bean? I've never paid $300 to to have a garbanzo bean on me.



We might need a simulator for this

No war but class war, stay strong friend ✊

It'd be pretty difficult, any instances that start that shit would be defederated with a quickness, but I don't want to be too optimistic lol

I've actually been using the box my computer case came in for recycling for a little over a year now. It just works!

"Hello, I like being kidney punched, could you tattoo a giant target so they know exactly where to punch?"

For sure!

Yo

Let the bodies hit the floor

Alright, but what if my music is applicable to more than one community? Like, it's a punk album, so I'll probably post it on the music communities and the punk communities, as well as the aforementioned [email protected]. Not trying to spam, but just typing "music" in the search bar brings up five communities where my content would be applicable. Good looking out though, that's why I asked!

No problem! It's worth noting that both of those non-FOSS plugins I mentioned are both free as in "free beer", so if you need a good auto tune and/or fancy chorus, check those out!

Thanks! You'd be the guy to know what communities go with which posts haha

Cool, yeah will do!

They don't want anyone trying to smuggle all those neutron star packages

Awesome, thanks for the advice! And I will for sure let you know when I upload it somewhere, but I can tell you the tools I use right now! I've got Ardour for my DAW, I'm using a mix of the Ardour community plugins, LSP parametric equalizer, Calf compressor, and the two non-FOSS ones are Graillon 3 auto tune and Acon Digital Multiply. Drums are via Hydrogen, with the Ian Paice and Travis Barker drumkits from sourceforge, and I think I yanked Dave Grohl's toms for one song. Some other various drum effects I got off of Pixabay. The main album art is going to be handmade because I suck at GIMP, but if I get enough support to make like, a vinyl pressing or something, then I'll include all my failed attempts at album art in the liner notes lol

For sure, that's why I was asking about an "imadethis" community, like a community explicitly for self-promotion. Looks like there is one on lemm.ee, so I'll definitely post there once I am truly finished with the thing.

Thanks! Yeah, me too lol, it'd be kind of a bummer to have put all this work into it and then no one listens to my tunes! Most of them are pretty good!

Yeah, fair enough, just thought I'd get a feel for the vibe before I just did the thing. It's probably gonna be at least a month before I release anything, but like I said in the post, I don't see other musicians posting their stuff here, so I just wanted to make sure it was cool.

Musical self-promotion on Lemmy?

Hello Lemmings! For the past year or so, I've been working on a solo project, and I'm kinda close to being finished with it! It's a punk rock album, made with mostly open-source tools (the only non-FOSS stuff is a couple of plugins that didn't have good open-source alternatives)!
I've seen other folks promote their games here, but so far I haven't seen any music done this way, and I was wondering if it's maybe not allowed? Some sort of Lemmy faux pas? If it is, indeed, allowed, then what communities would be amenable to maybe a twice weekly post? Should one make their own community for this purpose? What about a general purpose community for self-promotion, i.e. "imadethis" back on the old place? As you can see, much to consider. (I don't have anything out yet, so this post in itself is not self-promotion.)
What say ye, o wise Lemmings?

Wasn't expecting copaganda in my game today, but here we are

A door-to-door sales company that sells "No Soliciting" signs
Came up with this during the two days I mistakenly tried to start a new career.

What's a good co-op RTS for the Switch?
For backstory: My partner and I have been playing Super Mario Party so long that it's gotten boring. They asked me what I wanted for my birthday (which is coming up), and I thought something like that would be cool. If X-COM 2 had a local co-op on the Switch, I'd do that, but is there something similar?

Gordon has gotten so big!


I'm sure it's not the radiation...

How to find saved comments
I can see saved posts all day, but saved comments, well that's an issue. It was easy on the previous iteration, just wondering why I can't find it now.

How to search within a specific community?
On Boost for Reddit, this was the feature I liked the most. Is it just not implemented yet?

Making a meme out of whatever Star Trek episode I care to watch.


I was gonna shout out everyone in this community, but I figured out that you were all sus, so this is the meme.

Me when Stamets hasn't posted in four hours (there are no more good memes)


This is my first time posting from Boost, let's see how it goes...

How to change default home
My current "default home" when you open the app or click the home button is set to "Subscribed Top Six Hour". I would like to change that to "All Top Six Hour", but I can't seem to find where to do this. Android app, btw.

Would a federated dating site work well? What would it look like?
Basically title, every bit of online dating nowadays is either Match or Meta, and we're all about breaking corporate chains right?
So these are the thoughts I had:
- Matches based on simple user selection: age range, lifestyle, hobbies etc. None of that dumb algorithm stuff that makes you reset your profile every month.
- ActivityPub protocol so that anyone can run their own instance, but can also be blocked if anything heinous happens.
- E2EE for messaging (and anything else if it's possible).
- Someone wrote an open-source anti-CSAM script for Lemmy recently, I hope we could adapt that to our use.
- Just, like, everyone have a good time on this app, we're here for love lol
I am not a coder, so I would have no idea how to do this, but I wonder about the interest in such a creation. Maybe some of you out there could make something I could use to get a date (pls).
