  • In the article the chatter is a woman but it can just as easily be a man. So all those customers are sexting with men half the time, heh.

  • The PieFed web UI has a daily limit you can set, btw. Doesn't work with apps but you can uninstall all the apps and use PieFed as a pwa which is very app-y.

  • I guess if it were effective then Google wouldn't provide it.

    There is an app called App Block which is a bit more hard to get around.

    Perhaps the key is finding things to do that are better. Volunteer work, study, get a dog, etc

  • This may come as a surprise to you so brace yourself.

    I am not stupid.

  • In the settings, isn't there a "digital wellbeing and parental controls" area? I'm pretty sure that's a stock Android thing.

  • No, but there is on PieFed.social. Mods and admins have functionality to check any post or comment for LLM-generated text. There's more stuff too.

    Generally I share my findings with Lemmy admins so they can ban the account.

    I think this is a pretty big threat to the fediverse and social media in general and am taking it very seriously. At the moment the amount of slop is pretty low but we need to be ready for the deluge when it comes.

  • Make sure the ram is upgradable. A lot of them are soldered on these days and you're stuck with that amount forever.

  • It seems as if showing that the air defense systems are not working 100% is being seen as a threat to the government.

  • US to release 172 million barrels of oil from strategic reserve to combat energy price hike

    Jump

  • The world uses 102 million barrels per day.

    https://www.worldometers.info/oil/

    And the article says they'll be releasing it over the course of 120 days. Maybe it'll bring the price down by a few percent, not enough to be noticeable.

    It's just not practical to store enough oil to make any long term difference, we use too much of it and it's too valuable to leave lying around unused.

  • There is a convention of putting a FEDERATION.md file in the root of your project (there is a FEP about it but I can't remember what it is, heh) which lists the FEPs your project implements.

    e.g. https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/FEDERATION.md

    There is no standardised API endpoint for discovering this info so basically you just need to lurk in all the dev spaces you can and watch what they're talking about, stalk each other's codeberg/github issue queues and PRs and just cope with the jank.

  • Yes theoretically you could have any type in there but votes are the biggest inefficiency in the system so I've only implemented it for them.

    There are some nodebb forums that federate with us, which are intended for AP dev discussions - !technical-discussion@activitypub.space for example. Not very active. Also some Matrix channels, again not exactly humming. Everyone is pretty focused on their own projects, really.

  • Maybe.

    I can't find any gavinmooney profiles on any socials... even x dot com.
