Exploring Lemmy Codebase - Rust for lemmings
We are officially finished with The Book. Now onto something that matters.
Today is an exploratory session to explore the lemmy codebase, see how well it's documented, and make targets for contribution.
If anyone's following along this week is dedicated to familiarizing ourselves with the codebase. Pull it down, set up our dev environment, run the code. After that pick a directory and attempt to explain a few functions to a duck. If a duck is not present find a google search result for the term "duck" will suffice.
As always, a stream will be available at the following link of myself doing this for around 2 hours starting one hour after this post is made. https://www.twitch.tv/deerfromsmoke
I love alot of warhols art and usually hate when people say something along the lines of "I could do that" but come on man, I could do that.
It's so pleasantly shit
It's not a configuration issue Google has blocked nearly all instances with larger usage numbers for piped.
If you're self hosting or using a smaller instance you'll be OK though especially of it's not on the main list
Aight, Glad for the warning. Couldn't care less if they take it out this is on my "no go" list.
Holy shit they're making it again? Fully for it man, third time they create the exact same game it seems and I'm all for it. If that sounds like sarcasm or a complaint it isn't. I'm excited for the third time round
As a mod and creator of this small Lemmy community I'm going to use what little authority I have to confirm this win
October 6th - "Trek"

Nah you're doing it perfectly. Inking is just art made with ink in black and white. may that be a pen or ink brush.
There are certain techniques people have found to be helpful in the medium some of which are present here but use it or not this is inking and welcome in this community.
On the art I really like it. Kinda sad man why do you have to make me feel sad for a coin operated device
I really like this one. It hits me with nostalgia from somewhere I can't explain, like a half remembered book from my childhood.
I know that sounds like I'm over-reacting or overly complimentary but It's what I feel. I very much like this

Day 2 - Discovery - Digital, very quickly made
Yeah I didn't have much time today.
Also, I'm sorry for the content
Day 1: Backpack - Digital
Went a bit better than I thought and I had fun. Very excited for the rest of this month.
Wait, backpacks have two straps. Dangit

Inktober - Daily, or semi-daily, inking event starting oct. 1
This is a place to share your Inktober pieces and to discuss the the prompt, event, or anything related to inking. See this post for more information:
https://sh.itjust.works/post/25621677
Strictly positive as the point is to force ourselves to do this daily with the hope of improving our skills through repetition. Constructive criticism welcome if you can phrase if positively.
Discussion post is live with the intent of talking about how this should be run with my current goals. Feel free to join up and hope into the discussion.

Inktober! New Community Discussion
Why this community?
In 8 days inktober starts. I'd like to have a place were people can see others results and discuss their experience daily. After failing to find a community for this event I've created one myself. I'd love to hear peoples thoughts on how this should run though.
What is inktober?
Inktober is a yearly art event intended to improve your inking skills. Every day, there’s a prompt which everyone will draw with either ink on paper or digital inking. You may also dedicate yourself to a half marathon style Inktober by inking every second day.
To be discussed:
My suggestion is that we have a daily round up thread where yesterdays art is collected in one place and, if wanted, vote on our favorite piece to be included at the end of the month in a "community favorites" meta post.
Any suggestion on how this should be run, anything we can do to make this more fun, or something not listed would be greatly appreciated.
Want to help the community?
I'll admit, I don't have the most time. I'd heavily appreciate it if some of you would be willing to become mods so you can make the daily roundup post, pin it, unpin yesterdays, and update a list of these posts. Of course, enforcing the rules and cleaning up spam would also be kind but I understand we all have time issues
Rust for lemmings reading club stream canceled this week.
I'll be clear, quite embarrassingly I bit my tongue hard last night and haven't been talking right all day. Hurts to talk, hurts to eat, and worst of all hot tea is undrinkable. How will I live. Now I know exactly what it feels like to be soldier wounded in combat.
Will resume next week in full force. In the meantime however please feel free to read ahead. Or, alternatively, try out a few leetcode\advent of code questions. This what I'll be doing tonight.
Coreboot Progress - Update on the AMD board
Saw this a bit ago but didn't think to post about it
To be clear, this doesn't mean coreboot is available now and what is working for devs includes quite a few binary blobs. It's still progress though and good to see.
It's been 5 months but you did ask me to inform you of anything happening @[email protected]
Another link from that article shares more info: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Framework-13-AMD-Coreboot-WIP

Barside ally meet (digital)
Created a while ago from a DnD session where the PC's were stalking a leonin man meeting some friends in a shifty alley, beside a bar using krita along with it's perspective tools. Using Muses brush pack, I'll send a link if requested. Very nice pencil and charcoal brushes.
Rust For Lemmings - Code Together Stream
This acts as a reminder that tomorrow Tuesday the 13th at 6:30 EST will be our second meeting, though you're welcome if it's your first time all the same. We'll be discussing what we've learned since last week, what we're doing this week coming, and reading the next two parts of The Book together. Along with that, we'll talk about a new (secondary and optional) stream possibly on Thursdays at the same time going through advent of code together in order to learn rust through code.
Hope to see you all there tomorrow but as always, the Vod will be available afterwards at the youtube channel listed in our Project Portal here: https://sh.itjust.works/post/14184272
Rust For Lemmings - Code Together Stream
Streamed Code Together
A streamed reading club focused on rust's The Book and becoming reasonably good rust developers through community collaboration. The end goal is to read the lemmy codebase and contribute to the platform we all love. This stream will serve as a club meeting where we read some of the content together, discuss previous topics, and write some code.
Anybody's welcome, whether you want to continue once we get to the code base or not. If you're completely new to rust this is a great place to start and if you already know the language we'd love to have you all the more. At the very least it's a good networking opportunity but you'll likely learn more than you thought.
Post Stream
After the stream, a discussion post will be made to This Community stating what we've gone over and what we're planing to read/code/do before the next stream. This will act as a place to talk about what you've learned, what issues you're having, how your post-stream learning is going, and to help your fellow lemmings. I strongly encourage posting a comment even if everything you've stated has already been said.
Timing
We will meet weekly at 6:30pm EST (New York Time) on Tuesday with a maximum length of two hours.
Hosting
For now, the host will be myself however if you're interested in hosting or co-hosting yourself please feel free to message me about this especially if you can stream at a time where people in a European or Asian timezone can join in.
Missed the stream?
A video will be available on youtube so you can watch at a later point and a discussion post will be posted here weekly which states what we've gone over and what we're going to do before the next stream.
Links
The weekly stream will be hosted on twitch with that site being our main chatroom. Vods will be available on Youtube after the stream along with a mildly edited version for those who couldn't join in but still want to keep up

Rust For Lemmings - Code Together
The concept
A streamed reading club focused on rusts The Book and becoming reasonably good rust developers through community collaboration. If you're interested, please comment so we know this's something you'd like to join in on.
A Begining
To begin, I'll be setting up a twitch stream where we read through the book together and solve some problems together related to the concepts provided. We'll be able to collaborate in chat, and talk about it here after each stream. This way, we'll be able to lean on each other or just hang out while we learn the language Lemmy uses for it's backend. Other hosts will be welcome as the end goal is to create a group of people whose goal is to support our collective growth as developers
Anybodies welcome of any skill set, whether or not they want to continue on once we get to lemmys code base. If you're completely new to rust this is a great place to start and if you already know the language we'd love to have you all the more. At the very least it's a good networking opportunity but you'll likely learn more than you thought.
Timing
Please comment your availability so we can find the best time and day to do this. As a stand-in and default though, 6:30pm EST (New York Time) on tuesday will be the start time. I'd be available on most days myself after 5pm Eastern Time (new york) though so don't hesitate to suggest another time/date.
Where?
For now, I'll be streaming this on a twitch channel I created a bit ago but never used. The link is here: https://www.twitch.tv/deerfromsmoke
Thank you @[email protected] for the idea.
