  • I Replaced My Entire Work Setup with European Software – Is It Possible?

    Jump

  • It's pretty easy if you have an e-mail job, but it's hard to avoid American software with stuff like CAD.

  • As a library, we're not here to judge, we're here to help

  • Trying to decide which anxiety DDC to look at first would give me anxiety lol.

    I had to look it up:

    152.4 Psychology > Perception, movement, emotions, drives > Emotions and feelings

    155.5 Psychology > Perception, movement, emotions, drives > Psychology of young adults

    616.8 Medical sciences and medicine > Diseases > Diseases of the nervous system and mental disorders

  • Malware is harder to find when written in obscure languages

  • BRB, writing a virus in COBOL.

  • Does it make sense to host your own instance of lemmy for one user?

    Jump

  • There are domains you can register privately, if that's a concern.

    The main advantage is not having an admin block you from talking to certain people by defederating the instance they use.

  • If you could move anywhere to minimize the impact on you of the worldwide rise of fascism...

  • Somewhere I won't be bothered, like Tristan da Cunha or the Pitcairn Islands

  • The fediverse has a bullying problem

  • This guy is being reasonable, get the pitchforks!

    Jump

  • Nothing is private on the fediverse, and Mastodon's bodge only gives the illusion of privacy. There should be zero expectation that any fediverse software will follow their non-standard extensions.

  • Papers strewn on Newcastle street feared to be sensitive army documents

    Jump

  • Trust the MOD to be old fashioned, even when shit gets leaked.

  • After 50 million miles, Waymos crash a lot less than human drivers

    Jump

  • That doesn't solve the last mile problem, or transport for all the people who live outside of a few dense cities.

  • Organic Maps successfully migrates to Forgejo after GitHub blocks them

    Jump

  • What happened? Why did github block them?

  • After 50 million miles, Waymos crash a lot less than human drivers

    Jump

  • That's what happens when you have a reasonable sensor suite with LIDAR, instead of trying to rely entirely on cameras like Tesla does.

  • Buy British - Feddit UK

    Jump

  • Pixelfed leaks private posts from other Fediverse instances - fiona fokus

    Jump

  • It demonstrates that nothing on the fediverse is private, and bad hacks that pretend otherwise are a terrible idea.

    Jump

  • There's easily over a thousand fediverse instances at this point, having to whitelist them all would be impractical.

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • Yeah, I did mine like 15 years ago around when they first started accepting international orders (At the time they didn't even have labs in the UK and they paid to TNT overnight ship my spit to America)

  • Outdoor gear 🏔️🥾 (we have so many brands)

    Jump

  • Decathlon is French I think?

  • What word looks weirder and weirder the more you look at it?

    Jump

  • Hyperbole

  • Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.

    Jump

  • Some forum software is starting to support activitypub with plugins. If they add the plugin then you can follow and interact with the forum from Lemmy. The best option for everyone is to start pestering forum admins to add those plugins so they get users and Lemmy gets more content.

    Long term creating migration scripts for popular forum software like phpBB, so content, users, etc, can be moved to a custom Lemmy instance would be an option.

  • (Actually Useful) Decentralized Infrastructure/Distributed Computing Projects?

    Jump

  • Helium was interesting, but they locked it down so you can only use their proprietary hardware for access points, it seems kinda scammy.

    IPFS is used by several archive projects like Anna's archive and libgen.

    Meshtastic is a distributed local mesh network for text messaging.
