  • The solution is the same now as it was a year ago: stop participating in .world communities and start contributing your energy to the equivalent communities elsewhere. The entire point of federated threaded discussion boards is to be able to route around damage (or dipshits).

  • ahh okay, I'm already using a newer version, so my acceptance of the Gnomification is "priced in" so to speak.

    I did however put in a calendar event repeating every 6 months to check in on Kaidan and see how they're doing, and once it's far enough along, I'll switch and start contributing bug reports and such.

  • Dino was Gnomed from the very start. Probably not the greatest choice for anyone who dislikes Gnome UX, the problem is there aren't a lot of fully baked alternatives.

  • Oh god dammit. Which version did this happen in?

    Unfortunately for Linux it seems the non-GTK alternatives are either not as far along, or run in the browser.

    Gajim is a daily driver for me, Kaidan isn't far enough along, and Dino is even more Gnomed from the get-go.

  • Also there are some good 5825U boxes out there, but it's still more oomph than you need for seeding.

  • I don't know how to do this on AMD boxes but there are tools out there to adjust CPU power limits without undervolting, it uses the chip's built-in ability to throttle itself. I've had to do the reverse on a Dell which limits itself to 0.8GHz on any non-genuine™ power adapter, but in that case I limited the (Intel) CPU's PL2 (long-term power limit) to 25W rather than its spec 35W to save power. It thus keeps itself throttled below 25W consumption by the CPU.

    I'm sorry I can't be more helpful with names of tools to try, but I just packed up all my gear to head across town, I'll try to come back and drop some URLs later. I have a little 5750GE box so I'm interested in whatever the solution turns out to be.

  • Israeli military drops charges against soldiers accused of sexually assaulting Palestinian detainee

    Jump

  • [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu welcomed the decision, saying that “the state of Israel must pursue its enemies, not its heroic fighters.”

    The now-dismissed indictment against the soldiers accused them of an assault that included dragging a Palestinian prisoner along the floor, stepping on him, tasering him, and sexually assaulting him by stabbing him in the rectum. The Palestinian was taken to an Israeli hospital with fractured ribs and a perforated rectum that required surgery before he was returned to the prison.

    The allegations of abuse at the facility gained steam when, in August 2024, Israeli news broadcast a leaked video of the alleged assault.

  • Israel’s military on Thursday said it was dropping charges against five soldiers accused of beating and sexually abusing a Palestinian detainee in an alleged assault partially caught on camera.

    [...] The now-dismissed indictment against the soldiers accused them of an assault that included dragging a Palestinian prisoner along the floor, stepping on him, tasering him, and sexually assaulting him by stabbing him in the rectum. The Palestinian was taken to an Israeli hospital with fractured ribs and a perforated rectum that required surgery before he was returned to the prison.

    [...] In its Thursday decision dismissing the case, the military’s top legal officers said the charges against the soldiers were being dropped because the video did not show abuse violent enough to merit a criminal conviction and had been improperly leaked to the media.

    And, of course:

    Netanyahu welcomed the decision, saying that “the state of Israel must pursue its enemies, not its heroic fighters.”

  • I think they also have some always-on secret sauce spam filtering similar to whatever Google Voice has, but I don't really remember details and a cursory search didn't turn up much. I originally switched from Voice after reading about it, though.

    But, there's no way to tell how many spam calls it's blocking because there are no logs for that. So I don't know if, on my spammy number, it's blocking 3x the level C calls which actually made it thru, or what.

    I appreciate you taking the time to talk this over with me. Spam filtering is a must-have for me because if I get too many spam calls ringing thru, my brain will assign all calls to the Noise category, at which point the phone becomes much less useful to me.

  • Ahh okay, I saw on some XMPP clients feature grid that Cheogram didn't have those features, good to know that it does.

    No TLS/SRTP for SIP phones is really rough but I understand supporting SIP hardware isn't a primary goal for you guys. Maybe I could have calls also ring my existing provider for when I want to answer them on my hardware device? But then I'd be paying double per-minute rates, and I'm not sure how outbound calling would work.

    As far as spam filtering, not sure what my provider does by default, and some numbers I've had with them have been spammier than others, but with a recent spammy one, I dug around in their control panel and was able to make a rule to direct calls with a STIR/SHAKEN attestation level below X (my choice) straight to voicemail, or do whatever else with it. In that case I dumped all level C calls direct to voicemail and spam calls immediately dropped by about 90%. They also have the ability to do this with caller ID blocked calls, and ones without valid North American caller ID. And they have a "press 1 to connect" feature but I haven't tried that one yet.
