You can follow them from your already existing Mastodon (and maybe kbin?) account.

From my account on mastodon.online I just followed https://social.overheid.nl/@beheerder as a test, and I've already been following https://social.network.europa.eu/@EU_Commission

For some reason my server couldn't find users from the social.bund.de when I pasted the follow-link (like https://social.bund.de/@Zoll )

By the way Mastodon has a very nice interface to subscribe to other instances. Like now when using when following the link in OPs post and opening a web browser, then clicking on a user and clicking follow, it gives the option to sign in to subscribe OR copy a link to subscribe from another instance . Then I just paste that link in the search field in my Mastodon app (logged in to mastodon.online). Hopefully Lemmy will implement that "button to copy link to subscribe from other instance" soon

Turns out the real protest was the Fedifriends we made along the way

The point isn't to save power, the point is that the laptop is completely off. You can even take out the battery if needed

May the phantom forces not be with you

Well that aged like fine wine (talking about Embrace Extended Extinguish and how Google abandoned XMPP):

In theory, a company like Meta could run that playbook here. It could launch Fedigram or Fedbook or whatever, gain a lot of users, and then slowly shut out the broader ecosystem.

Have you tried hackernews?

Space Engineers with ALL the PCU (No build limit)

I had one the other day too, playing Heavenly Bodies. Ran the game on my Kubuntu laptop (Nvidia GPU) , using steam in-house game streaming to my (old underpowered) Ubuntu desktop connected to the Big screen TV, and with 2 wireless Xbox360 controllers connected to the Ubuntu desktop

It Just Worked.

Gaming on Linux has gone from being a pipedream, to a niche, to being viable, and now to even being good

Gaming on Linux and even general use on Linux has come a LONG way the last few years. The number of "it just works" scenarios go up, and cases requiring some tinkering are getting fewer and fewer. All without license keys, ads in the start menu, forced updates at inopportune moments, and general enshitification

That said, I wouldn't say gaming is "better" in Linux, but in many cases it's on par with Windows. Probably the two most notably weak points are VR support, and certain AAA games anti-cheat not allowing Linux/Proton (even though it's technically capable of running)

Genuine question: Is that good or bad? What kind of farmers? Food or tulips? Humans gotta eat, and I thought Netherlands produces a lot of Europe's agricultural output

Well that sounds like good news
