Why they would do it when this hurts their own business is beyond me.

Welp, I guess I won’t be donating next year.

While LOLA is great, I’d really love an established handshake mechanism for having two accounts on two bespoke services represent the same user.

For example, I want to have a pixel fed and mastodon presence that can be authored between the two. However, you currently can’t make two accounts that are effectively linked to each other. I feel like this linking is important for further decentralizing the fediverse (by effectively decentralizing the user itself)

Exactly. This is really just hedging their bets. They know the carpet is being pulled and now they’re in the bargaining phase. (This plus Jensen asking people to be nicer about AI shlock.)

Alternative Advice: Buy up old used mini-pcs if hardware is too expensive. Don’t buy AWS unless you actually need cloud services (i.e. you’re hosting a website).

I won’t say VPSs don’t have their utility, but anyone framing it as an alternative to owning a PC is completely DeLuLu and need their head examined.

Perhaps it’s just me, but I find the inability to add custom metadata to git commit really confusing considering this was always going to happen without it. Especially when you consider large organizations that might not have a single bug tracker or one that’s connected directly to the git repo.

I don’t have many complaints about git, but this has always confused me. Surely he must have known this was the inevitable side effect?

Mind prison once again. It will make you reflect on whether cave molly deserved to exist or not.

Ah true, I generally avoid all until I’m out of subscribed content or just looking for new communities

Active is basically like old forum logic, where new comments will bump it up back to the top. Scaled is my go to view first as it does a pretty good job balancing out communities of widely different sizes, so smaller communities that you’re subbed to have a chance of having their post be seen if it’s new and larger in upvoter count.

Hot take: the biggest issue is actually ever entering a community and seeing zero comments. Most reddit addiction stems from wanting to read comments, so I think people should add a comment to something if they’re upvoting and they see that the thread has zero comments.

Nothing eliminates enthusiasm like seeing 0 comments on every post in a community, especially if that community is driven by bots.

Yes, I would agree. Don’t get me wrong, bsky is kind of not my thing in general lol

This has been this way forever iirc. My only reason for making a bsky is to be able to search for users who are too ignorant to make a mastodon account or don’t realize bridgeyfed is a thing.

Will the AI still flame me if I ask the wrong question?

Is nothing sacred anymore?

Real talk though, it is concerning when it feels like 3/5 times you ask AI something, you’ll get a completely hair brained answer back. SO will probably need to clamp down non-logged in browsing and enforce API limits to make sure that AI trainers are paying for the data they need.

No worries that makes sense. I’ll make an account over there mostly to test out piefed, purely out of curiosity.

Thanks for the help!

Q: Would it be possible to migrate an account from lemmy.zip to piefed.zip?

Obviously this might require the software support first for general account migration, but I’d like to know whether or not I should make a new account or not if it’s possible to try migration.

Right,

But just because it was a standard doesn’t mean it made sense as a standard. So when 99% of applications don’t care to adopt the standard, it really only makes sense to let the application space decide what to do with middle click and to fall back on the user’s system configuration if it’s unspecified (which can still be paste if you want it to be imo)

As someone who likes the middle-click to do mouse relative scrolling, I would be OK with this being configurable on a per-application level.

I don’t think it really makes sense as a “standard”. Blender will never use middle click as paste, for example.

I’m not trying to say that we should be making use of it.

But man, it makes a lot of their dick-ripping whenever biden sneezes a bit silly in retrospect, right?

checks notes, sighs…

Copycat infringement

To be fair, that’s basically how any deed to a piece of land works too. But at least when you buy land, you can live on it while the government is still solvent (which will be most of us’ entire lives.)

I get it, though it doesn’t mean that it isn’t worth trying to do things legitimately. Impeach him anyway, even if it doesn’t matter.
