I just download the offline installers from GOG and keep those on my NAS organized into folders per game until I want to install them. Not fancy, but it works fine for me.

You might consider using Google Takeout to export the emails to an mbox file, and then importing that into your new mail server.

Magnitude 6.7 earthquake. Woke up to it shaking my bed violently in my dorm room. (Boarding school) Thankfully, I didn’t have anything above me that could fall, but some of the other students kept books in the shelves above their beds. Suffice it to say they got an even ruder awakening than I did…

There was a big aftershock a few minutes later – just after I’d gotten the hell out of the building, basically – and smaller aftershocks for days afterwards.

It put a big crack in the floor of my dorm and everyone who lived there had to stay outside all day until the administration declared it safe for us to re-enter.

That was coincidentally the same day as a school festival and I’d spent the evening before working with my classmates converting the art room into a haunted house. I never got to see the mess, but whatever happened in there was so bad the room was unusable for months. Most of the rest of the festival (e.g. outdoor stalls and such) was still able to be run though, so they carried on with the parts they could. It was surreal.

Did you flip a power switch on the PSU at some point, perhaps? (Done that one a few times myself…)

I was getting error messages when I first saw your post and checked a few minutes ago, but it looks like it’s back online now.

There is also !communitypromo@lemmy.ca

I had similar symptoms and in my case, I had a sleep disorder, an anxiety disorder, depression, vitamin D deficiency, and other problems.

Go call your doctor and explain your symptoms to them in detail. Your problem is the type that should be medically evaluated by a professional.

Not likely. Mozilla had $1,321,539,000 in total assets – roughly half a billion dollars of which was in “cash and cash equivalents” – in their last (2022) audited financial statement: https://assets.mozilla.net/annualreport/2022/mozilla-fdn-2022-fs-final-0908.pdf

I don’t think Bing had a clue what you were asking it, but some of those are amusing.

Yes. There are virus vector vaccines already in existence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_vector_vaccine

For example, adenovirus vector vaccines were created for COVID-19: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_vaccine#Adenovirus_vector_vaccines

Those are non-replicating though.

Live attenuated vaccines also exist – which can replicate – but those work by using a weakened/modified version of the original harmful live virus the vaccine is intended to protect against: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attenuated_vaccine

Oral polio vaccine is a well-known example.

Back before kbin fell off the internet it had a really neat experimental “collections” feature that would let you make named groups of communities. Collections could be used either privately or made public so other people could subscribe to your curated feed on a topic. The owner could update the collection as needed (e.g. adding or removing communities/magazines as they changed over time).

It’s one of the kbin features I miss most on lemmy.

Does anyone know if mbin ever got a copy of that? I know they forked off before it was added to kbin, but I don’t know if it ever got integrated later. (I don’t see it from a quick glance at moist and fedia, but I haven’t dug into the dev history.)

Best way to fix that is to join in and post something!

Otome isn’t my personal interest (my sexuality goes the other way), so I don’t have much to say myself, but I’ve seen Elevator7009 trying to build a community first on kbin.social (before that site died) and then on kbin.run (before it died) and now there and I’d like to see her efforts succeed.

If you’re not interested, feel free to ignore it, but if you’d like a place on Lemmy for discussion, there are at least a few people there who’ve been trying their damnedest to get something going.

I know; they should not be allowed to do that.

Mozilla’s non-profit status needs to be revoked.

I’m a huge fan of otome visual novels, but I don’t think it’s something that many here would appreciate lol

FYI: !otomegames@ani.social

Definitely! I usually name my files starting with YYYY_MM_DD (which makes it easy to sort by the date I started making the file), a number for which entry it was on that day (1,2,3,4… plus sometimes a letter too if I want to keep multiple drafts), and a few words if I have other details I want to remember. e.g. “transcribe_song_by_artist” or things like “cont_YYYY_MM_DD-entry” when I continue working on a piece from a long time I ago. Sometimes I add a title after that too if I wanted to give the piece one.

Deliberately copy snippets of a work you’re interested in as a study – e.g. transcribe it – and experiment with elements you find interesting (rhythm, chords, synths, effects, whatever) in small test pieces to make sure you understand what’s going on. Let the ideas stew for a while and then much later try to use the techniques you learned in a real piece.

That’s what I do anyway.

GoG homepage > (your name [drop down menu] when logged in) > “Games” > Click on any game in your collection > Download offline backup game installers

You can download installers for whatever systems the game supports – usually that’s just a Windows .EXE installer (+ several .bin files if the game is large). For games intended to run on Linux w/o WINE, you can select “Linux” from a drop down where it says system and it will give you an .sh file.

Glad I could help you make progress – I hope you can get it all the way working now. Good luck!
