If you are part of the federation you wear a uniform, sure. If you are not, you don’t. So what?

I think you meant to say starfleet instead of federation…

Buddhism is also much younger than 8500 years, and its arrival in Japan much more recent again.

The Jōmon period lasted longer than stated here. According to Wikipedia, it lasted from 14000 BCE (so 16000 years ago) to around 300 BCE (i.e. ~2300 years ago).

Does that mean you'll do typesetting now?

TIL about Sebastian Münster's 1540 map of the Americas, the first one to show that North and South America were connected by an isthmus and the first to call it 'The New World.' in c/[email protected]

The only label on the map that's both on Latin and in old German.

Because after moving very slowly and steadily for just about forever, the other galaxies will suddenly make a jump of like ten thousandth of a degree.

Imagine the following:

You actually can stop the time by snapping you fingers, but it stops time for the entire universe, including yourself, with the exception of one single observer on some unimportant planet in the Andromeda galaxy. After 100 years from the POV of that observer, time resumes again.

Would you even be able to tell?

Is OpenBSD seriously still using CVS for development?

Photon UI does not work in Firefox 122 on Linux (lemmy.world)
 

The photon UI under photon.lemmy.world does not work for me in Firefox 122 under Linux, showing nothing but blank page when I open it. It works in Chromium and in Firefox on Android.

When I open the developer console, I get the following error message:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: e.moderation is undefined

Is there any community specifically for finding communities (lemmy.world)
 

Is there any lemmy community for finding and discussing other communities, in the sense of "Hey, I am interested in this and that topic, which community should I join?"

How does i2p compare to tor? (lemmy.world)
 

It seems like what i2p is doing largely overlaps with what tor does. How do the two compare, and why would you use one over the other?

Can we get any numbers about new users? (lemmy.world)
 

I see plenty of posts talking about a huge influx of new users to lemmy.ml lately. Can we get some numbers about that? How many new users per day are we talking? How does that translate to number of requests per second (or minute) on the frontend?

What kind of hardware is lemmy.ml running on? Is it just a single server? Can lemmy instances be run on a loadbalanced cluster?

I'm really interested to see how efficient and resilient the lemmy software really is, at the moment I am getting the impression that it is buckling under the load of, honestly, not even that many users...
