[…] Boost is totally screwing up the references display

Yeah, I've heard report of that bug in Boost before [1] [2].

Out of curiosity, what does it look like for you?

It’s not off-topic when the person in question is involved. […]

As stated in the title, the topic is concerning the AI bots that are spamming GitHub repos ^[1]^, not anything to do with nutomic. I personally encountered the bot in nutomic's repo ^[2]^, so I simply used it as a generic example. Given this, your comment feels off-topic, imo.

[…] Who’s that […]?

I presume they are referring to @nutomic@lemmy.ml ^[1]^; nutomic is one of the main Lemmy developers ^[1.1]^.

Context? […] what does he have to do with this post?

If they are indeed referring to @nutomic@lemmy.ml, I presume they are mentioning nutomic because the example GitHub repository that I cited ^[3]^ is owned by nutomic ^[2]^; that being said, specifically regarding their claim itself that nutomic is transphobic ^[4]^ and is a genocide denier ^[4]^, it is entirely off topic, imo.

I will make no comment on the veracity of the claim itself without evidence. I do not wish to speak for nutomic — I will let them speak for themself here should they wish.

These were found in Cascadia in mid-November. What are they? (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) by Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works to c/mycology@mander.xyz

They were found in mid-november in the Salish Coast region of Cascadia. They were growing out of woodchips composed of a mixture of western hemlock (majority), and western red cedar.

Side view of one full mature specimen:

A group with a sample of the substrate (the cap appears to be umbonate):

A closeup side view, and internal view of the stem (it appears to be hollow):

Cross section of the gills — they appear to be adnate, or sub-decurrent:

Underside of view of the gills:

Spore print (first on white background (the split is due to two halves), second on a black background):

Examples specimens once dried:

Examples of the colony, and the location/substrate in which it was growing:

My initial thought was that they were Psilocybe cyanescens, but that's pretty much completely been confirmed as incorrect [1][2][3][4][5]. The current running theory is that they are Hypholoma dispersum[2][3]. What do you think they are?

    [...] I’m sorry to disappoint you, but even though they look similar to P. cyanescens, they aren’t.

    Cyans have white-ish stems, dark gills, a purple-black spore print and bruise blue almost instantly when touching them. [...]

    Sorry to disappoint but looks like hypholoma dispersum to me.

    • there’s no blueing on the stems or margin in any of your photos, the ones you picked should have had stained blue anywhere you touched them
    • The margin isn’t translucent striate

    If the cap cuticle is peelable you could make a case that it’s not Hypholoma but without any blueing it’s gonna be Deconica not Psilocybe.

    That’s consistent with Hypholoma, maybe next time.

    the spore print is also brown here, but should be purple-ish black if it were Psilocybe spp., also the stipe looks wrong for that ID - I would say definitely not Psilocybe cyanescens (not just because they’re not bruising blue / purple / black).

How do relay servers handle abandoned messages? (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works to c/simplex@lemmy.ml
0 comments fedilink
 

As far as I understand it, the relay servers only hold the messages until they are delivered, but what happens if they can never get delivered? Does the server just endlessly accumulate these messages in limbo, and never purge them, or are they on a timer? Even if they are on a timer, if a group chat with one abandoned user has a large enough volume of messages, they could theoretically overwhelm the server's storage.

Update

I have received an official response on this from the SimpleX Chat team:

the servers hold the messages for 21 days if they are not received
