Seems like your USB drive is formatted with a filesystem that doesn’t support large files like FAT32, if you are able to, try formatting into exFAT in Linux with:

sudo mkfs.exfat -n LABEL /dev/YOURUSB

or in Windows by right clicking on the USB and clicking format.

I’ve filed a report to GitHub on this guy, I assume you did the same but ugh, people suck.

uBlock Origin has cookie/popups filters that you can enable in its settings that work pretty well

You cannot leave me because I’m leaving you, well that situation solved itself. That said I am concerned about 196.

Thanks! For anyone that wants something that will block posts and comments do the following in uBlock Settings -> My Filters:

your.instance##.post-listing:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@blockedinstance\.domain/))
your.instance##.comment:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@blockedinstance\.domain/))

In this case from blahaj to hexbear:

lemmy.blahaj.zone##.post-listing:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@hexbear\.net/))
lemmy.blahaj.zone##.comment:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@hexbear\.net/))

Edit to add this will also make sure it doesn’t remove posts that just have the instance in the title, just posts from the instance.

If you want my honest opinion, tolerating tankies is not worth whatever kind of project you want to build. I think we should unite forces with trans people on trans issues sure, but giving a platform to tankies ain’t it. They’ll poison discussions, as they already have, name-call and take-over whatever thread they do not like. They like to put on a nice face to avoid being deferated, but I doubt it’ll last.

That is a fair point, though, as a Catalan anarchist, as much as I believe in the unity of the left, I cannot and will not collaborate or tolerate tankies, history knows we tried that in times of need and it did not work out.

If I may ask, how do you do so with uBlock? Haven’t found any info on filtering instances as a user

I have seen people use Google Drive during a jam, as a team, I was flabbergasted! I was in charge of the git repo and quality control of our code in one of my biggest projects and I cannot begin to praise git enough. Git blame, feature branches and rollbacks have saved our team’s bacon a bunch of times. 10/10 advice, do make sure to start using it yesterday.

This x1000.

Re. Scoping, this is a really useful skill to nurture, that and accurately predicting how much time tasks are going to take you, which really go hand in hand.

Try to set up realistic goals/milestones for all your projects, not only gamejams, the bronze/silver/gold approach (which I’m borrowing if you don’t mind) is a really good start, specially for jams, for longer projects you might want to take those and divide them in smaller goals!

Analyze when finishing each task how realistic your time/effort expectations were and eventually you’ll nail your estimations more, you’ll finish way more games when they don’t creep in scope, ask me how I know!
