Before you can can do that, you need enough renewable generation capacity to exceed peak demand. And of course that will never happen because of the bottomless appetite of AI and bitcoin mining for electric power.

You want someone to host your meme photos forever for free? That is sort of lol. You need paid hosting. I’m happy to recommend this (formerly buyshared.net, started by the buyvm guys) at $8/year: https://namecrane.com/store/da-shared-hosting

You probably want your own domain name too, but I you might be able to alternatively use a subdomain of namecrane.

Um what? Was this the launch that was going to bring back the ISS crew? Is there a news link?

Start out using your phone. Get enough experience taking pictures that you have a better sense of what you might want in a camera that your phone doesn’t already do. Take at least a few hundred careful, thoughtful shots that way to see what it is that you can and can’t do with the phone. Then come back and discuss your findings in detail and we can make more suggestions.

Just open an issue on the github suggesting the feature. You can also make a ko-fi donation as someone suggested. Doing something like that as straight-up paid work is legit, but it would cost a heck of a lot more than $20, as everyone has already said.

The comment was about the 500, which currently has non-working M2, as a money grab apparently.

Aha, here comes the 16gb Pi 500 with a working M.2 slot. It never stops.

This just isn’t general interest technology news, especially since it’s for a vaporware (crowdfunding) product. Might be ok on /arduino or something.

Here’s USB PD to 12 volts (other voltages available too), just wire it to the breadboard:

https://www.adafruit.com/product/5450

I know perfectly well what breadboards are. I even remember the Continental Specialties brand. They have power supply strips, like the ones on the edges in this pic. You connect power there.

This is spammy and there are already plenty of USB-C power conversion gadgets, e.g. on Adafruit. No crowdfunding needed.

Here is how they made that machine:

Yes I use lemmy.ml sometimes, but stay mostly on .world by inertia. It doesn’t make much difference. It does matter where the communities are. c/vegan is big and active and it’s on .world. The catfood incident there didn’t affect me directly (I’m not a subscriber) but it affected all the participants, many of whom are on other servers. So it’s not enough for users to move from .world. Communities would have to move or split as well. The federation model is that .world exports its censorship to every server that federates with it.

In fact, community fragmentation is already a huge fediverse fail even without censorship causing even more fragmentation.

This false equivalency pains me to my core. I don’t really have anything to say about the rest of your comment, but ffs can people stop with this nonsense take? You’re implying that the difference between centralized corporate authoritarianism and decentralized grassroots democracy is negligible.

It might very well be that the corporate censors are worse human beings than the Lemmy censors. That is completely independent of which platform experiences more censorship. It’s literally against the Lemmy World terms of service to discuss unsanctioned brands of cat food without supplying scientific sources. That nailed Lemmy’s coffin shut for me. There is nothing like that on Reddit. It’s ok, I’m not trapped in here with you. You’re trapped in here with me.

@Teknevra, you’ve posted a number of ideas like this which seem based on the premise that all it would take to make them happen is writing the software and keeping the servers running. In fact those are really the easy parts.

Any above-ground platform involving user to user payments (Patreon, Paypal etc.) has to devote a ton of energy into anti-fraud, anti-money-laundering, trade in illegal goods, etc. AO3 isn’t just file hosting for fanfiction, it’s explicitly political in that it aims to give a safe space for works that would be banned on other platforms due to subject matter that draws disapproval. That takes a lot of ideological commitment and some level of moderation, legal backing, etc. Pulling non-fediverse sites into the fediverse when they desire to run their own walled gardens for whatever reasons is another set of battles to fight. So in each case, the obstacles to your idea involve conflicts between humans, not just lack of the right software.

Why do you find the fediverse so great anyway? Lemmy is basically a failure IMHO. Instead of having one giant jerk censoring things like on Reddit, there are instead dozens of little petty ones wanting to defederate from other instances. Reddit is mostly a superior experience for users, with just a few of us fringe types staying on Lemmy because of priorities that almost nobody else cares about. Mastodon gained some popularity when Twitter became an intolerable hellhole, but Bluesky ended up recapturing a lot of those departing users.

I appreciate your good intentions and willingness to help out with various annoying situations, but I think it’s important to stay clear-headed about exactly what you are trying to do.

Why would you want that? What is the attraction? “Federate all the things” isn’t really an answer. Why would authors or readers prefer it over AO3?

Yeah I don’t understand how that could have gone unnoticed til 2021.

If you mean a shared server for book comments, Open Library (openlibrary.org) was supposed to be that, though it never gained so much popularity.

It would help if you said more specifically what you were looking for tutorials about, and also what your pre-existing knowledge level is about those topics. https://www.youtube.com/@richarde.borcherds7998 (Fields medalist Richard Borcherds) has lots of great math videos, but they are generally at mid-undergraduate level or higher, sometimes graduate level, so not for everyone. 3blue1brown is also good, and more elementary.

Otherwise, if I want to find out about a specific topic, I search for that topic as needed. Like I needed to fix a washing machine so I found a video about that particular repair. It’s not something I would have watched for random entertainment or education.
