Ok, you made me look it up. The actual capacity is 3000-4000 passengers per hour in peak direction according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mi_Telef%C3%A9rico
Since I added a support email to our Anubis AI scraper blocker I got a few emails from people having issues with the Brave browser accessing our site. I don't use Brave and would recommend people to avoid it as well, but it would be interesting to know what is causing the issue and how it can maybe be worked around?
A quick search in the Anubis issue tracker points to an issue with a user agent switcher that Brave might include?
Anyone here has an idea or is willing to test different options?
Yeah, was quite disappointing to see the FOSSY conference being streamed on Youtube instead of PeerTube or Owncast.
Hosting from home is another option that can save a lot of money over time.
Ionos has an really cheap 1€/month VPS that seems to be pretty good value for small things though.
https://manyfold.app/ is the better option that also federates via ActivityPub.
The way it is build in La Paz in Bolivia allows it to have quite a lot of capacity.
Yes each cabin only holds 10 people or so, but they come every 30 seconds or so if I remember correctly.
Immerhin etwas gute Nachrichten heute 👍

In fact this one is worse, reminds me of the fascist black sun logo.
GL-inet devices are usually available on Amazon and similar places: https://www.gl-inet.com/compare/?series=home-router
They come with a customized version of OpenWRT, but usually you can also flash vanilla OpenWRT on them, check the status of the exact device here: https://toh.openwrt.org/?view=normal
Maybe they don't want to ingest AI generated content to prevent model decay and thus remove sites that promote AI use?
Given that we used to see lots of Meta scraping a while back on our instance and had to implement Anubis as a result, it is interesting to see that slrpnk.net doesn't seem to be on this list (anymore).
Each month, we create a post to keep you abreast of news and happenings regarding the server, discuss recent events, and to act as town square for the community.
This August, we’ll be keeping it short, as you are probably enjoying the summer time ☀️
[email protected] - A community to discuss ancient archaeology, history, philosophy, etc.
[email protected] - One person’s trash is another's treasure! A community around the topic of rescuing things thrown away.
[email protected] - Letting go of the ideas of conventional schooling and instead letting the child lead by following their own interests.
[email protected] - Community for the appreciation of the small web / the indie web / or even the non-www internet (gemini, gopher, etc).
As promised in the last monthly update, we started to look into ways how to improve the resilience of our servers against DNS issues and other unexpected problems. For now we got a nice RasberryPi based hardware KVM that allows to remote control and restart a server even when completely stuck in a failed state and will attach it to our new main router and firewall server once we have finished migrating all the services over.
We also found a less buggy option to automatically update the DNS entries should a similar problem occur as earlier last month, but we still need to test and deploy it.
As for future upgrades: the new router will allow 10gbit connectivity and native IPv6 support in the future, should we decide to upgrade our main connection.
We are still committed to eventually migrate our Lemmy instance to Piefed, but so far there has been little change in the main blocking issues identified last month.
However, the very nice Photon frontend got experimental support for Piefed, so people using our local copy of it will feel right at home even on Piefed. There are also a few other frontends and apps experimenting with Piefed API support, but the API is still under construction and far from complete.
Housing costs skyrocketing across the globe due to an epidemic of mega-corporation landlords has left hundreds of thousands of individuals and families without access to housing, who are ultimately left to twist in the wind as the corporate landlords march ever onward with price fixing and gentrification, all for the profit of the dear shareholder.
While government programs and non-profits can offer some help, punks like us rendering aid with direct action is still incredibly beneficial to those in need. Here are some ways you can help:
Most cities often have a group that renders mutual aid directly to those most in need, and they would love your help. Food Not Bombs is the most well known, and they have an index you can search to find one local to your area.
If you don't have one in your area, perhaps due to being in a more rural area, you and some friends could start your own Food Not Bombs chapter instead! Alternatively, even if you're not religious, a local church may be a good place to render aid with an existing group.
For people in need while on your way to work or the grocery store, assembling Care Packages can allow you to immediately render useful aid. The contents of a care package will be determined by your area and the needs of the people you're looking to give them to. Chatting with a person in need and asking them what would be most helpful to them is one of the best ways to narrow down the essentials, and avoid things that won't actually be of much use.
But there are generally a few universal things that will always be appreciated.
🔻 General Care Package Contents 🔻
If you keep water in your car trunk, try for canned water in metal containers to avoid giving people water that has toxic plastics leeched into it from the heat.
Also, If you have the means, buying these things in bulk can help reduce the cost.
Lastly, if you have access to a printer, include a page of resources such as a list of local mutual aid groups where they can obtain more help in the future, along with their address and times that they operate. On the opposite side, a map of your area and any local public transit routes and timetables would also likely be useful.
Now it’s your turn to share whatever you’d like down below; your thoughts, ideas, concerns, hopes, or anything related to the server. If you have a new community you’d like to shine a spotlight, shine away! If you’re a new user wanting to say hi, feel free to post an introduction :)

Both is fine, but in the short term Codeberg is probably the better option. Once Forgejo adds AP federation, a selfhosted instance is probably the best.
