I loved this show. It was so needlessly well produced. Probably one of the darkest comedies I have seen in some time.

The manga is great as well.

Still lots of things to do :)

Lemmy has been at it for years at this point while piefed only started up a bit over a year ago I think? In any case, I have only been a contributor for maybe a couple weeks, so lots of catching up to do!

Relevant issue: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/issues/665

tl;dr - it’s an issue with the pillow image library in python. It’s on our radar though. I got posts working, but you have to click through, the thumbnail still isn’t animated.

IIRC it is intentional that world isn’t there to help spread out users to other instances.

Excellent use of post flair!

Well, it can federate with lemmy instances and there are way, way more lemmy users/communities than there are piefed user/communities. If you want to see the local communities on a piefed instances, it would be at /communities/local. This is the page for piefed.social.

This is exactly why. Some numbers:

• Polycarbonate thermal expansion coefficient - 65 * 10^-6 per degree C (source)
• Glass thermal expansion coefficient - 9 * 10^-6 per degree C (source)

Most amateur telescopes are used shortly after dusk when the temperature is changing more rapidly than deep in the night when the temperature might be more stable. Also, the coatings are not as resistant to more dramatic expansion cycles (remember that you need those mirrors to stay very smooth). Given the high price and low volume of the goods, it doesn’t make sense to cheap out on a critical component like this and give yourself a bad reputation among a very small but dedicated community.

I kind of feel like this was a missed opportunity to have Ponko replace Yachiyo in the OP.

I am traveling right now, so I am going to keep it short. I wasn’t really feeling this episode for a while. Yachiyo going through a rebellious phase (no matter how hilarious or well animated it was) felt a bit out of character to me. However, they brought me back around with the emotional exchange between the two. I am going to miss this show when it is over.

This show is taking its time with the later parts of this story despite going a bit faster early on and I think it is paying off. Honestly, despite the obvious lack of budget/production available for this show, they have done a fantastic job with the adaptation. They have changed up the order and pacing to better suit the medium, leading to some great moments.

I’m traveling, so I am going to keep this short. This episode was probably the best produced episode all season. I have absolutely loved this show. Even having read the manga, this show has elevated the source to such a high level it has been a joy. I will miss this when it ends.

This episode was certifiably nuts. The production on this show has been phenomenal when it has no need to be. It’s been something special all season.

I just looked at the first PR out of curiosity, and wow…

this isn’t integrated with tests

That’s the part that surprised me the most. It failed the existing automation. Even after prompted to fix the failing tests, it proudly added a commit “fixing” it (it still didn’t pass…something that copilot should really be able to check). Then the dev had to step in and say why the test was failing and how to fix the code to make it pass. With this much handholding all of this could have been done much faster and cleaner without any AI involvement at all.

Most of my plex users stream via Playstation, an area where Jellyfin has essentially been locked out. I let my users know how they can access my Jellyfin for the upcoming loss of remote play, but almost all of them opted to just pay the $2/mo to keep using their Playstation client.

I have a PhD in physics, primarily working on fluids and now I work in industry on fluid dynamics. Having just read the abstract, I can already tell that this paper is one of those that borders philosophical about the author’s view of their field. Nothing wrong with that though as we physicists tend to wax poetic from time to time.

The question about when we can consider turbulence solved is an interesting one. I still work in the field and for most useful applications of fluid dynamics, I would consider it a solved problem. Not to say that the NS equation is solved analytically, but rather that the field has built up a toolbox of phenomenological models and CFD systems that are more than good enough for the range of scales that we typically work with. The bigger problem for CFD in this space is optimization, an issue where GPUs have proven to be invaluable. Only in the past couple years have the major CFD software packages started supporting GPU computation, speeding things up 2-10x depending on the specifics.

I think that turbulence is an issue really at the extremes of scales at this point (very tiny, very large, small dt, hypersonic, etc.). Also, I think that it would be difficult in a system with complex forces acting on your fluid, like in a plasma where E&M forces are so significant. So, good luck all you folks working on fusion reactors!

You have clearly never driven on 93 through Boston where the person you replied to said they are from (aka the Big Dig). It is basically an entire highway that is underneath the city. There are many on and off ramps, lanes suddenly become exit only, complex multi-lane exits that branch…it’s intimidating. As somebody that has lived in the Boston area for 15 years now, I still mess things up.

Official response from Greg Bernhardt

It’s years since I last used PhysicsForums, but found it immensely useful in the old days while going through my undergrad physics degree (it was less useful for PhD courses). I am not morally opposed to providing AI attempts at an answer in threads where nobody else chimes in. However, using real accounts that belong to other users is wildly over the line. I was surprised to see this wasn’t really called out in the official response thread by the existing users as that is the part of all this that is the most egregious to me.

IIRC, piefed’s private votes are disabled for “trusted” instances. You can see which instances are trusted here.

I have a PhD in and am a practicing physicist in the field of rheology. I think this is an interesting way to explain viscoelastic materials to people. My go-to example is usually Silly Putty, but cats are something that just about everybody has some experience with.

Also, this is neither here nor there, but I have been trying out piefed lately and it’s pretty cool. Thanks to the devs over there, the anime community should be a lot more compatible with piefed going forward thanks to squashing a couple bugs I found from our use cases. Specifically, piefed users should now enjoy:

• Images on episode discussion threads don’t disappear when I edit in a screenshot submitted by a user (relevant issue)
• Clips submitted to the community will no longer break the UI in Tile or Wide Tile view (relevant issue)
