What happens to the talent at these studios?

Are all these buyouts just a way to force hire workers.

I am a bit confused by the status of that, I know Lemmy instances are already defedrating from meta so it must be part of it right?

I much prefer the Netherlands goverment approach where they host their own Mastodon instance.

That's if they know about it and have access to any of the accounts.

For example you can setup a domain.com account that's almost completely anonymous.

Some form of compute with a recurring job that checks for a DNS address or domain.

Choose a domain that needs to be regularly paid for as a target.

Reason I would choose something you pay for as the trigger is because not paying a bill after your death is one thing that will be actioned on no matter what.

Fascinating, thanks for sharing.

Cubes are a mystery I would like to know about as well.

Very interesting indeed.

I guess a usecase like this easily slips past most developers due to lack of exposure :?

Is the need to respond as a separate entity so frequent that separate accounts for each entity would not be enough or is the user switching process too much friction?

And this is an example of what being a "high functioning autistic person" is like XD

I hate to admit it but I do see the logic in what you're saying.

It appeals to the squirrel living in the back of your brain.

I recently stumbled upon a fantastic swivelling recliner chair on trash day in Amsterdam, but there's one small catch – it's missing its base! The chair itself is in great condition, and I couldn't resist the opportunity to bring it back to life. However, I'm facing a bit of a dilemma when it comes to finding the right chair base to restore this gem to its former glory.

What I want to achieve:

  1. The chair is a swivelling recliner, so I need a base that allows it to swivel.
  2. I don't have any information about the chair's brand or model.
  3. I'm open to both purchasing a replacement base if I can find the right one, or attempting a DIY solution if that's feasible.
  4. I am located in the Netherlands, so I would prefer to get something local but am happy to order online.

I've tried searching online, but without knowing the specific chair's make and model, it's been challenging to identify the exact base I need. So, I'm turning to this wonderful DIY community for your expertise. Here are a few questions I have:

  1. What strategies or resources can I use to identify the chair's make and model based on any existing markings or features?
  2. If I can't find a matching base, how challenging would it be to fabricate a custom base that accommodates both swiveling and reclining functions?
  3. Are there any common standards or measurements for chair bases that I should be aware of when searching for a replacement?
  4. Any other tips, tricks, or advice on how to go about this project would be greatly appreciated!

Please let me know if I should add any pictures to the album HERE.

Thanks, everyone who takes the time to read this and respond ^ _ ^

 

I recently found out that Racktime makes little snap-on bracks that let me turn anything I can drill holes in into snap-on modules for my bike.

The Bike is a rental so it took some time to figure out how to add a rear rack so that I can take it off if I need to return it but I am incredibly happy with the results!
