@Evil_Shrubbery Haven’t gotten the update yet, but based on the release notes it appears 3.7 introduces an emoji search box, which was much-needed! Really happy to see that.

@OwOarchist @Rhoeri Unlike AI crawlers, search engines generally respect robots.txt and noindex tags, which will tell them not to index or surface those pages in search results. This is how fediverse profiles which have chosen to opt out of internet search indexes do so.
You should still assume things you post in public with no auth required are public of course.

Linux@lemmy.ml•GNOME & Firefox Consider Disabling Middle Click Paste By Default: "An X11'ism...Dumpster Fire"
4·3 months ago@Reisen Among other things, it’s useful in terminals where the standard ctrl-c/ctrl-v send a control signal rather than copy/paste. Most terminals nowadays have some other copy/paste shortcut so it’s less important now, but a lot of us still find it convenient.

World News@beehaw.org•Danish postal service to stop delivering letters after 400 years
1·4 months ago@HubertManne I suspect that dropping the letters at a doorstep isn’t the hard part. Letters require their own sorting infrastructure which can actually be quite complex, so doing this probably lets them streamline behind the scenes.

Food and Cooking@beehaw.org•The Innovation That’s Killing Restaurant Culture: Delivery has turned America into a nation of order-inners.
10·4 months ago@alyaza As someone who’s still very covid-conscious and an agoraohbe, takeout being widely available has been a boon. Still, the commentary on the experience lost resonates with me. I generally tend to favor certain kinds of meals that I know are going to tolerate being in 3 layers of container for half an hour and still be pretty good. I don’t tend to get apps or dessert, since that just prolongs the degradation. It never occurred to me that restaurants would be actively prioritizing menu items that deliver well, but in retrospect it’s obvious, and I think it’s a bit sad to think about. There are so many meals that are much better served fresh and plated nicely in courses rather than slopped into a box.
And before anyone chastises me for being “lazy” or relying on extractive services, I highly favor ordering directly from the restaurant and picking up. The deeply abusive nature of Doordash et al towards both customers and restaurants is not lost on me.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What's if instead of a dead internet we end up with a dark forest internet
19·4 months ago@kossa @dual_sport_dork If you’re using HTTPS, which is by and large the norm nowadays, then every domain is going to be trivially discoverable via certificate transparency logs: https://social.cryptography.dog/@ansuz/115592837662781553
@EldritchFeminity @infinitesunrise I’m not sure if it’s organized, but it does describe a specific school of thought that isn’t just “I don’t personally want to have kids.” Antinatalists generally believe that it’s unethical for anyone to reproduce. The core argument is usually that since you can’t consent to being born, you can’t ethically impose it on someone against their will. It tends to go hand-in-hand with misanthropic ideas such as that humans are destructive to the planet/fundamentally cruel or that life in general just sucks. Ultimately, the thesis is that humans should extinct ourselves. Given the current state of the world, it’s gained some traction amongst groups of people trapped deep in despair right now. (Which, let’s be real - there are a lot of on Lemmy)

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Strawberry Music Player fork from Codeberg have been taken down
9·8 months ago@brickfrog @far_university1990 The dev saying it’s about “information on how to fund the project” is being… misleading. Windows binaries from the project are paywalled, so alternate builds being distributed via Winget presents a pretty clear threat to that funding by being free and more convenient.* They’re well within their right to not distribute their own builds for free, but the misleading way it’s framed here is not endearing… especially given this is a fork of another piece of FOSS software that will happily provide you Windows builds.
* As an aside, it really is so much better to have stuff distributed by a package manager. Who the hell wants to download an installer from Patreon for every new release, honestly. Some devs drive me crazy with their insistence on asinine distribution channels.

Some newer laptops use MIPI cameras which aren’t as consistently supported on Linux yet. The situation has improved a lot in the last couple years, but if you can, check compatibility for the specific laptop and distribution/kernel version you plan to use.
