  • Self-hosting my own federated podcast called Linux Prepper

    Jump

  • unsure of how to federate it with Lemmy directly

    I think this will be a struggle.

    In Lemmy terms, everyone here is a 'Person', sending a 'Note' activity for the fediverse@lemmy.world 'Group'.With Castopod, it classes your podcast as a 'Person', and each episode as a 'PodcastEpisode'.

    If Castopod classed your podcast as a Group, the same as PeerTube does for video channels, then integration would be relatively easy. A Group for a podcast would make more sense to me, but FunkWhale have made similar decisions, probably due to the dominance of Mastodon within the Fediverse.

    As mentioned, you could probably tag your episodes with the address of a pre-existing Group (e.g. a community on Lemmy), but that pre-supposes that Lemmy knows what to do with the 'PodcastEpisode' type (a quick look on their GitHub suggests that it currently doesn't)

  • Cross posting best practices?

  • As someone viewing Lemmy posts from outside Lemmy, I hope your PR can get submitted!

  • Karen who did not get leaving card loses UK employment claim

    Jump

  • Apparently, she's appealing the ruling - she wants to speak to the employment tribunal's manager. (not really)

  • Well, you got this post, so I guess so? (the site responds better today, when it was a bit laggy or non-existent previously)

  • feddit.nl fell over yesterday btw, so that's why there was no post yesterday.

  • Let's talk about ClubsAll

    Jump

  • If you query it like a federated platform would, it returns HTML rather than the required JSON, so links like that won't work.

    curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' --location https://clubsall.com/c/ClubsAll

  • Lockpicking Lawyer's size preference

    Jump

  • If an 8-inch wang isn't doing the job for you, it's probably as much about technique as it is about size. (I watched this assuming it was a parody vid, but it's an April's Fool upload from the real channel).

  • Removed

    It appears that Threads is working on a Communities feature called "Loop", which might be similar to subreddits or X Communities.

    Jump

  • In that thread, Gargron (the Mastodon dev) saying that they have groups on the back burner is a bit of an understatement (the code to support Lemmy-style communities has been sat languishing for ages).

  • No time to read? Google’s new AI will turn anything into an NPR segment

    Jump

  • I know all the cool kids hate on AI, but as someone out of the loop, that 'podcast' is really impressive. I guess it speaks to how a influential certain style of podcasting is (from the likes of NPR) that a machine can copy it the same as other humans do.

    As for the embedded link, this works for me (and others on the same site as me), but it might not for others:

  • Pay us, or let us sell your info to 1200 partners

  • I think they're all pushing their luck with it, trying to get away with it until any actual legal repercussions happen. I first saw this a while ago with a French newspaper - apparently the majority of newspapers there do it.

  • Washington's Dream 2 - SNL

    Jump

  • Thanks. Turns out that if it wasn't for Washington, Americans would be free to occasionally measure themselves in 'stones', based on the easy-to-remember system of there being 14 pounds in a stone. Or maybe 12. America's loss, either way.

  • Oh yeah - you're right. Feeling sleepy now though.

  • Washington's Dream 2 - SNL

    Jump

  • I'm guessing "Washington's Dream 1" was for America to have TV shows with sketches that go on for slightly too long, punctuated by incredibly enthusiastic audience noises (in England sketches are mandated to only last 3 minutes max, and are greeted with quiet stares of appreciation).

    Only kidding: this was a fun video.

  • I mean, like, acktually ... 'factoids' are incorrect facts:

    The term was coined in 1973 by American writer Norman Mailer to mean a piece of information that becomes accepted as a fact even though it is not actually true, or an invented fact believed to be true because it appears in print

    Don't care, subbed to !factoid@sh.itjust.works anyways.

  • Just curious: how would you classify Chrome OS? As Community/Linux or Community/Linux/Chrome (to recognise how much heavy lifting the browser is doing). And would you want to call Google's additions 'Community' or something else?

  • Is lemmy.autism.place supported on iOS?

  • Already been said, but works okay if you type it out:

  • The Jedi, like Blockbusters, thought they were going to be around forever, but now their premises are occupied by people indifferent to whatever it is they actually did.

  • Add any RSS feed to any Lemmy community

    Jump

  • Oh, right. I was confused by this before, but I understand it now after reading yours and Otters answers, and seeing https://rss.ponder.cat/c/medicine@lemmy.ca - the bot posts to its local version of a remote community, and it federates out like it it normally does.

    Am I right in assuming that - API wise - the bot only interacts with ponder.cat, and doesn't make calls to the remote instance? (I'm wondering if there's any barriers to it operating with communities that aren't on a Lemmy instance).

    Does the bot resolve the human first, check what they moderate, and then resolve the community if they moderate it, or just always resolve the community, and then compare its moderators with who made the request? If its the latter, this could be a way for bad actors to crowbar a community onto your instance (assuming it doesn't purge it if things don't match up, of course).

    What would have happened if Otter had sent /add https://lemmy.ca/feeds/c/medicine.xml medicine@lemmy.ca ? Would this be like that time when someone put 'google' into google.com, and the Internet blew up?

    Thanks.
