At the moment, our DATATERM instance is running on a VPS at Hetzner with an ARM CPU.

Depending on the size, it is planned to move the instance to a server with more power at a later date.

Hey chooms,

on our Mastodon instance we added @lucy@corteximplant.com as an auto-mod almost a year ago.

Recently we added a Misskey/Calckey instance next to our Mastodon instance which has a strong increase of Night City inhabitants.

Since the theming on this instance is a cyberpunk bar, we have added @skyeshadowdusk@nightcity.bar who automatically moderates the instance as much as possible and provides you with drinks.

Unfortunately, there are still some small challenges with our Misskey/Calckey instance. We are in the process of fixing them, so please don't be sad if the instance runs very slowly.

I see you are no longer a robot :D

But we need a proof!

[-] revengeday@dataterm.digital 7 points 1 year ago

I don't know how to break it to you gently, but when you became a member here you were turned into a robot so you could become a real cyberpunk! /jk

Please have a look at https://dataterm.digital/settings if "Bot account" has been activated by mistake ;)

It has come to my attention that this platform allows the posting of Loli-Art, which falls under the category of child pornography as per German law.

I understand that this decision may disappoint some of you who enjoy the content available on lemmynsfw.com. However, please note that you still have the option to create your own account on their platform to access their content directly.

Some types of content require a decision to be made without the community. For legal reasons. Since the server is located in Germany, we MUST adhere to the valid jurisdiction. You can find all information here. You are of course free to look for another instance which meets your needs - that's the good thing about the Fediverse:

That was very fast, thanks for informing us about the update!

We will discuss the further procedure internally.

I don’t know if I agree with the characterization that Apollo is a fully direct competitor of Reddit.

Okay, hold on, timeout. You go to the App Store, you type in Reddit, you get two options, right? There’s Apollo. You go to one, it’s my business, and you look at our ads, use our products. That’s 95 percent of our iOS users. The rest go to Apollo, which uses our logo, or something like it, takes our data — for free — and resells it to users making a 100 percent margin. And instead of using our app, they use that app. Is that not competitive?

Whisper, OpenAI's enigmatic speech recognition model, likely honed its skills on ZDF's subtitled videos, a source of knowledge.

Within its code, the cryptic message 'Untertitel im Auftrag des ZDF, 2017' reveals its origins. An echo of silence becomes the very essence of copyright notices.

Oh, the origin of the instance comes from our Mastodon instance https://corteximplant.com which later became other small Fediverse communities like our Pixelfed instance https://cyberpunk.pics and our Misskey instance https://nightcity.bar

The team consists of LGBTQIA+ friendly people, we want to offer a safe community for all who are a little cyberpunky - that can be nerds, geeks, programmers, gamers, creative people, all who swim a little beyond the mainstream.

You can find our team on this page: https://corteximplant.com/about

Maybe we will create a nice page about who is behind all the pages.

Our rules are "actually" quite simple and based on mutual respect and not being an derp-head :D

I have to admit, at first glance it's not really clear if it's a cyberpunk-only community or not, I'll adjust that a bit.

The origin of the Lemmy instance comes from our CORTEX IMPLANT community which is cyberpunk-themed (all kinds of cyberpunk - also friends of technology).

But feel free to create communities here, almost any kind (as long as they follow the rules - our rules are very simple, it shouldn't be anything that offends others) :)

[-] revengeday@dataterm.digital 5 points 1 year ago

Forget what I wrote, there is a setting for it - Sort Type: https://dataterm.digital/settings

[-] revengeday@dataterm.digital 7 points 1 year ago

Not currently, we don't have that many users on our instance here. We already probably very niche! If we find any challenges here, we will of course find a way to overcome them as we did with our Mastodon instance :)

[-] revengeday@dataterm.digital 5 points 1 year ago

A guide sounds good, I'll put it on my to-do list! "Somehow" I have not quite figured it out yet, it is possible even without DATATERM account to still use our Lemmy instance, I'll look again how that works :D What works is to enter the URL of posts e.g. at our Mastodon or Misskey instance into the search to reply to posts.

[-] revengeday@dataterm.digital 7 points 1 year ago

The design is already very ugly that I must admit! But you can help to create a nice design - we can also upload it to this instance :)

Your feedback is needed (dataterm.digital)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by revengeday@dataterm.digital to c/main@dataterm.digital

Folks, I need a little bit of your help. We started this little Lemmy instance without thinking much about it - lol.

So my question to you folks, what information are you missing. As I have noticed, our rules are a bit too hidden on this page. I will try to include them in the sidebar. Currently they are on our Legal page.

Is there any other information you need?

Small hint: Even if it's very cyberpunk'ish here, you are of course allowed to create communities or share posts that have nothing to do with cyberpunk :)

Update:

Link to the rules are now in the sidebar!

Oh cheesus, here we go!

I am done with Reddit and have deleted my account. Even if I don't cause an impact as a single person, I am happy that u/spez has lost a user.

Hey chooms,

I've come up with a crazy idea and maybe you chooms would like to do it.

We have now built a small-large loyal community around CORTEX IMPLANT and experienced many fun things.

What do you think about the idea, if there is merch for the Meatspace besides our thousands of Fediverse websites?

I was thinking about t-shirts and other stuff you can wear.

We already have logos and other images made for our various networks and these could be perfect to use for t-shirts.

Unfortunately there is one small point which could be taken negatively. Since it is very expensive to pre-produce t-shirts I would solve the whole thing via Redbubble.

I am aware that Redbubble is not perfect. But it offers me a cheap option to offer the t-shirts and has the advantage that it is available almost worldwide. If someone knows an alternative, let me know.

Worldwide shipping and print on demand would be important.
