Thanks to some amazing folks over at mholdschool.com we can finally enjoy the online cities of Minegarde and Dundorma in their full glory again. Not only are you able to play online, but Events, Siege quests and special sales from the cities vendors are also back. But the best: The private servers provide full functionality for original hardware as well!

For anyone curious you can join the discord, I‘m more than happy to help your PS2 setup.

What the hell just happened? Feel like the plot turned to 11 and we are heading right to the end game. Where does

My Warwick strap locks have worn out and snapped off right in the middle of filming a music video..

Which strap locks did you find reliable? Afaik Schaller and Dunlop offer some, but I've never seen them in use.

Ich nutze All gerne um neue Communities zu finden. Zurzeit nimmt aber die Memeflut überhand, so dass ich nahezu keinen relevanten Content finde. Aktuell sind bei mir so zum Beispiel 14 von 20 Posts auf der ersten Seite von /all Memes.

Gibt es da eine Möglichkeit, das irgendwie einzudämmen? Ich würde ungerne anfangen, die ganzen Communities zu blockieren. Wäre schön wenn es da eine Option gäbe, z.B. jeder Community nur einen Beitrag pro Seite unter /all zu haben.

I love me a meme or two a day, but I can't sort by "all" anymore. What can I do about that? I already unsubbed from c/memes because otherwise my subscribed filter would be filled as well.

It is my great pleasure to announce in collaboration with @virtualras@lemmy.world & @N3DSdude@lemmy.ml that automatic episode discussion threads will now begin posting to the !anime@lemmy.ml community starting right now!

Q&A:

What are episode discussion threads?

Simply put, they're a place to discuss newly aired seasonal anime episodes. Here's an example.

Why do these need to be automated?

Automation will lower the barrier to entry for discussions and help to remind everyone when new content airs. More importantly: it's what you guys asked for! (exhibit A, exhibit B)

What technology does the bot use?

The bot uses the same code as the /r/anime subreddit known as Holo. We had to fork the bot to make it work with Lemmy, but we intend to merge our work back upstream so that we can share improvements and collaborate with them when it comes to things like code optimizations and show data.

You can follow our efforts in refining & upstreaming the Holo fork here. Please feel welcome to contribute your own improvements to the PR as well 😊 (see below known issues list for ideas)

Why fork Holo?

Two reasons:

• Building a good bot is time intensive. By forking a mature project, you guys get what you want faster and us developers don't have to reinvent the wheel, so to speak.
• Every season, some poor soul has to perform the grueling task of manually cataloging each airing show. By using a shared codebase, we benefit from the dedicated work of /r/anime's data collection instead of having to do it ourselves.

Are there any known issues?

Yes:

• Links to episodes that aired prior to today will point to the wrong place. The bot is designed with the assumption that it can edit every post it links to -- since the actual threads prior to today were manually created by other people, it's impossible to incorporate those threads into the bot's database.
• Episode polls currently have an anti-brigading feature using Reddit authentication. That's obviously kind of a non-sensical thing to do here since 1) this isn't Reddit & 2) nobody's brigaded us yet. We plan to fix this soon!
• Anime subreddits currently show up in each thread's "Show information" list, but there's currently no such support for plugging the equivalent Lemmy communities. Eventually, we'll need to get that set up and upstream it, too. 😉

Who's the bot?

The episode discussion bot is named @shinobu@ani.social!

Why's the bot hosted on ani.social?

Let's break this into three parts:

• Why not lemmy.ml? Because new user registrations are closed for lemmy.ml 🤷
• Why not lemmy.world? Because lemmy.world is defederated by beehaw.org. In addition, smaller instances (like my own) sometimes temporarily defederate lemmy.world during heavy traffic. Obviously, we don't want visitors missing out on episode threads just because of federation drama or a recent traffic surge!
• Why ani.social specifically? Because they're on-topic, small enough to generally dodge defederation threats, and serious about their infrastructure.

Why "Shinobu"?

Before /r/anime's bot was running under /u/AutoLovepon, it ran on an account named Holo. Clearly the bot's creator was a fan of Spice & Wolf. I named the bot Shinobu because I'm a 🤮 bakemonogatari 🤮 fan. No further questions -- this interview is over. I will never apologize!

Would love to have a bot like this for current manga chapters, what do you think @yourfavoritenpc@feddit.de ?

Hey everyone!

I recently finished my partscaster made from an old RG421 body and 90s Harper neck. What do you think? Painted it black with a pearl golden finish.

There was quite some work to be done, but just to name a few things I did: Fixed the trussrod, complete fret job, fixed body damage, chizeled new pickup cavities, modified neck shape, installed fluorescent side dots, complete new paint job and so on..

It certainly has some flaws like the scratches on the front that doesn’t seem to polish out and a few nicks here and there, but I‘m absolutely satisfied with the overall result!

I Learned quite a thing or two throughout the process and already began working on another guitar, but this time with a body built from scratch. Hopefully this time without messing up the paint job, lol.

Hope you like it!

Es ist Mitternacht und passend zum Monatswechsel habe ich alle meine Kommentare editiert, gelöscht und meinen Account entfernt. Nun war es nicht ganz so dramatisch, da ich meinen Hauptaccount bereits vor einem Jahr gelöscht hatte. Dennoch fühlt es sich so an, als ließe man etwas zurück.

Wie schaut es bei euch aus?
