@Seraph According to https://status.lemm.ee the federation is not receiving data on real time from any kbin or mbin instance. I am following kbinmeta there and the most recent post is from three days ago. Fedia and kbin.run (both mbin) looks like two weeks ago is the earliest.
Edit: Looks like ot took about 21 hours for a kbin post to hit lemm.ee. No comments
..just post. So a 21 one hour delay so far.

@stopthatgirl7 Same. I poked around beehaw a bit, but I am not sure its is good fit for me. Think I will check out lemmy.world, they seem to be really communicative on mastodon during their upgrade process.
But that's all I know about it. I am looking into mbin,too...but I really don't much about it.
I have been spending most of my social media time on mastodon lately.

@stopthatgirl7 Agreed. I have been using Beehaw more and more as a "test". But I am not sure where I will land in the end though.

@HarkMahlberg I did the same thing since I am not sure of the longevity of kbin.

@roguetrick I really like kbin and want it to succeed, but between the outages, spam, and errors it is really difficult to use.
I have accounts on beehaw, mastodon, and pixelfed. I am open to other suggestions, but once I find a "home" (on kbin or otherwise) I will delete the others.

No matter which October vibes you’re here for — the cozy ones or the creepy ones — we’ve got plenty of new manga picks for you!
While investigating a site at the southern edge of the Nefud desert in Saudia Arabia, archaeologists discovered remarkable ancient life-sized engravings of extinct camel species.
Quantum physicists at Trinity, working alongside IBM Dublin, have successfully simulated super diffusion in a system of interacting quantum particles on a quantum computer. This is the first step in doing highly challenging quantum transport calculations on quantum hardware and, as the hardware
A bombshell government report also found that a CBP official used the data to track coworkers with no investigative purpose.
A vividly painted tomb dating to the 4th century B.C. has been unearthed in an ancient necropolis in Pontecagnano, near Salerno in the Campania region of southwest Italy.
Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) has warned around 6,800 current and former employees that their personal data was accessed via a data breach.
Scientists are puzzled by 5,000-year-old bear bones found on the Unalaska and Amaknak Islands in the Aleutians, Alaska. The ancient bones have been a decades-old mystery due to the fact that bears have never lived on those islands.
Untruths spouted by chatbots ended up on the web—and Microsoft's Bing search engine served them up as facts. Generative AI could make search harder to trust.
The International Space Station is abuzz with the return of one of NASA’s Astrobee smart robots. The yellow Honey Astrobee, one of three free-flying robots,
Russia's communications watchdog plans to block Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) from March 1 next year, a Russian senator for the ruling United Russia party said on Tuesday.
In 1973, Egyptian soldiers hoisted their flag over Sinai, smashing the myth of Israeli invincibility. Fifty years on, who claims the victory?
The world’s wildlife are facing a barrage of threats caused by climate change, from the loss of suitable habitat to dwindling food supplies. As a result, endangered species across the U.S. are edging closer to extinction at alarming rates—and if they disappear, critical genetic information could vanish with them.
The discovery shows the popularity of the ancient ruler hundreds of years after his death.
Agriculture in Syria started with a bang 12,800 years ago as a fragmented comet slammed into the Earth's atmosphere. The explosion and subsequent environmental changes forced hunter-gatherers in the prehistoric settlement of Abu Hureyra to adopt agricultural practices to boost their chances for survival.
Who knows what future discoveries we will ultimately have to credit to a machine?
To produce plant-based cheeses that feel and taste like dairy cheese, scientists have their sights set on fermentation. In a new research result, University of Copenhagen scientists demonstrate the potential of fermentation for producing climate-friendly cheeses that people want to eat.
Archaeologists in Norway unearthed dozens of tiny gold-foil figures at a former pagan temple.
In 2009 a giant star 25 times more massive than the sun simply vanished. OK, it wasn't quite that simple. It underwent a period of brightening, increasing in luminosity to a million suns, just as if it was ready to explode into a supernova. But then it faded rather than exploding. And when astronomers tried to see the star using the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT), Hubble and the Spitzer space telescope, they couldn't see anything.

@Gordon_Freeman As of 2019:
Well, all went a bit quiet. Partly because the Montreal-based company leading the way, Nexia Biotechnologies, a company spun out of McGill University, swiftly went bust and sold its two GM goats — Sugar and Spice — to the Canada Agriculture Museum in Ottawa, which in 2013 removed its genetically-engineered goats from display amid public pressure.
Quiet momentum continues, however, under Dr Randy Lewis of Utah State University and his team. Though he is unaware of the whereabouts of Sugar and Spice today, his lab looks after over twenty goats capable of producing silky milk.

@EdenRester I try to set a reading schedule. Nothing prolific, just some time where I can sit down uninterrupted and read. It is usually later in the evening, after the day has calmed down a bit. Sometimes in that time box, I knock out several chapters of a book. Other times, I can barely get through a few pages.

@Arotrios Interestingly enough, I can see my kbin posts in Mastodon as https://mastodon.social/@readbeanicecream@kbin.social, but it seems that those posts do not appear in my Mastodon timeline under the hashtags that I follow. For example, if I post something that includes #nasa, I do not see that post in Mastodon under #nasa. However, I do see it as a post under https://mastodon.social/@readbeanicecream@kbin.social.
I guess I am still just learning how it all works.
