  • Take part in a study on AI Resistance

  • I'm seeing some reports on this post from people who are suspicious about its legitimacy. It looks to be the same format as other Canadian university studies I've seen, and the fediverse is the right place to find people for such a study. To me it looks legitimate.

    Maybe I can do a verification from the admin side? If you can send us an email from your institution account to support@lemmy.ca, I can leave a comment confirming that you are indeed from UofT.

    You could also post this in !reddit@lemmy.world

  • This might actually work? I imagine getting up to altitude is the most difficult and energy intensive step since the engines are operating at a higher power and the air is thicker.

    Even if that's only 10% or 15% of the overall energy usage, being able to drop the battery and have it return to the airport on its own for reuse could be a cool concept. You could also optimize that particular battery for take off & climbing, and have the main battery for cruising.

    It just needs to be able to pilot itself back to a landing / catching structure 😄

  • Oh good point 🤦

    So maybe instead, we can clear all local + remote branches and tags, create a blank branch, delete main, rename the blank branch to main, then delete .git

    Although the OP says that we can merge anything, and we might not have access to mess with branches

    On that note, I should replace the AI generated community icon.

    edit: Done, the icon is now the sushi bird. It works on two levels, since it also looks like a thumb nail 😄

  • Welcome!

    For the rules, could you use different formatting? A lot of users use mobile apps, and some of them don't format markdown the way Lemmy does. The spoiler tag in particular doesn't get rendered in a lot of them.

    For example, this is what I see in Boost:

    Perhaps you can do something like

     
        
## Rules

1: 😇 Be Nice!

- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: **friendly**

2: 👶 Keep it at PG

    Which will format like this

    Rules

    1: 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly

    2: 👶 Keep it at PG

    You could also shorten some of them to make it more likely that people will read them. For example, moving this to the bottom of the rules section, or taking it out entirely:

    Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanantly banned from posting.

    I also liked the old sidebar's guidance on "complete stories" because it sums up what this community is intended for and differentiates it from "comics" and "memes". I don't know if it needs to be stated explicitly, but you could potentially include it right at the top with the description line.

    I'm also happy to help out if the moderation load gets too much to handle. Feel free to add my LW account if at any point the team could use more hands: https://lemmy.world/u/otter
