Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Random fact: My friend bought an Ikea Blahaj and has been calling it Blahaj all the time, while I somehow thought Blahaj was the name my friend came up with until I read the tag at Ikea on my next visit. That was really silly of me.

And that is why the name Blahaj really stuck with me and I named my bot Blahaj. Do I want a Blahaj? Maybe... I wanted a Gosig but Blahaj feels super nice too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Blahaj mean blue shark and blue shark is the bestest. That's why there's a subreddit just for blahaj

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah I only knew that afterwards XD

re:

I need examples for enshittified platforms i.e. websites that have gone to shit. We got TwitterX, Reddit, what else?

And preferably with counter-examples e.g. Masto and Lemmy.

Hah, i forgot about Pillowfort. The not-quite-AO3-but-adjacent gang has coded a basic tumblr replacement. I have been there and forgot about it (it had been years). It is barebones and without much users but it tumblr's basic functionality.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Apparently there's been a pickup lately thanks to everything else but same - i legit forgot about it.

BBC have their own Mastodon instance, so does the Dutch government. What if MUDA decided to have their own as well 😐

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd settle for BFM to stop doing nothing but twitter threads!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

(also bold of you to assume MUDA is actually plugged in to whatever's going on in the world. They already have trouble getting their own country.) 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Haha, they do use socmed a lot and is the age group that will be following trendy stuff, so they're likelier to be the first political group to have their own instance.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lol, maybe they already had one

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think if trendy you mean live on twt and fb, instead of reddit even, that would explain their blind spot lmao

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

For some reason, politician doesn't like touching reddit(thank god lol), nurul izzah once had an account in reddit, but quit a short while. Even if they did, they did not announce their presence unlike other platform. Else Reddit would've been ip banned a long while ago.

Muda is active on tiktok though, so it's not as farfetched that they will run something like mastodon

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Oh they're on TikTok? Oh, they're never going to be here then 🤣🤣 I remain optimistic though (in a very general way, the way I hope for all people), even if weaning yourself from dopamine hits won't be easy, RIP to their social media intern

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not a politician but at least Reddit got Fahmi Reza. Will be great if we can get him to join here eventually.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I think fahmi also abandon the reddit account, didn't see his post for quite sone times dy when i left

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Don’t want I want a Bossku instance.

What happens when/if Zahid get convicted? He purged a few members that were pro-PN iirc. And the remaining BN MPs? Do they support Zahid fully?

Also, Zahid’s court case will be Anwar’s downfall regardless of outcome. It not guilty - next election people bring it up. There will be a discourse about government interference in this case.

If guilty, structural integrity of BN and therefore the coalition will suffer.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Between Zahid and Moo, we don't really have a choice, do we? But if you put PAS into the picture, depends on your ideology and political spectrum, it will be obvious. Moo also strangled with corruption cases, and the amount of embezzlement also on-par with Zahid if not greater; the number of charges, however, is leading by Zahid.

Then, we have the second coming of Iskandar Kutty...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I’m more commenting on the future of the coalition, not talking about the options we had at that point in time during election.

Ha, that is custom gone wrong. The classic 911 already sits among the ultimate driver's cars.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

the photo you gave is literally a RWB 911. was cool 10 years ago, not so cool anymore because it's very difficult to find donor bodies.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Point taken. Given the specs above, I don't wanna see any more precious 911s given this treatment

From their announcements 'Lemmy.world has been down between 02:00 UTC and 05:45 UTC. This was caused by the database spiking to 100% cpu (all 32 cores/64 threads!) due to inefficient queries been fired to the db very often.'

sounds like classic ddos. look how it's hitting the same time of day on the graph.
