Thanks for the info!

I crossposted this to (what I considered) the relevant communities, where I added that as an edit.

From what I see:

  • feddit.de is on BE: 0.19.1
  • lemm.ee is on BE: 0.19.1-rc.1

I don't know in which version was the bug fixed.

 

This is the chart of the votes for the latest posts on [email protected].

This may be just a coincidence, but I find a bit weird that the votes went down to almost zero exactly when lemm.ee[^1] and feddit.de[^2] upgraded to v0.19.

(low-res) video: SQUID Device from Strange Days - YouTube

This is the actual hero prop used in the movie. The 'face plate' was interchangeable to make it look like several different units throughout the film. I made this video just to show that it still functions and what the prop actually does when turned on. (Which isn't much, some LEDs come on and the disc inside spins up...)

AFAIK, they are used as relays.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-bit_computing#1-bit

Computers and microcomputers may also be used, but they tend to overcomplicate the task and often require highly trained personnel to develop and maintain the system. A simpler device, designed to operate on inputs and outputs one-at-a-time and configured to resemble a relay system, was introduced. These devices became known to the controls industry as programmable logic controllers (PLC).

The Dungeon, 14″ x 11″ watercolor Pencil and Chalk on Toned Paper

The author Shawn Speakman has an  wonderful epic new novel out, The King-Killing-Queen, the first in a new series of fantasy stories for him. I had the privilege to illustrate the work with nine interior illustrations and a full color plate (which I have shared recently on MuddyColors. )
