I agree. I'd like to see them host their own Mastodon and leave a forwarding address on 'X'.

Move to an instance that won't.

Why won’t you show me the street name

This is by far my greatest frustration with it.

From what I've seen, there's no real performance difference with a gaming distro. What they tend to offer is an out of box experience that is more tailored towards gaming than a regular distro (think 'game mode', Steam, Proton, and maybe Lutris pre-installed, Nvidia drivers if you need them).

Cool. How about leaving it there?

The tiny, plastic, fish-shaped soy sauce bottles you get with takeaway sushi.

It's also second only to .com in terms of query volume in ICANN's Magnitude statistics with 980 mil vs .internal's 60 mil. Not sure if that makes it a de facto standard, but it's close.

Not surprised it's a Melbourne university researching this.

Uh, yes?

There are myriad reasons not to federate with Threads.

I'm the admin. Why? Because I enjoy doing, it's in the spirit of decentralisation, and I didn't want to risk being part of an instance that defederates from leftist instances like Lemmygrad or Hexbear.

I'm the admin of mine. Why? Because I enjoy doing, it's in the spirit of decentralisation, and I didn't want to risk being part of an instance that defederates from leftist instances like Lemmygrad or Hexbear. I only intend to proactively defederate from fascist and troll instances, and NSFW to reduce legal drama.

Heat pumps...

As someone who has used Last.fm for 19 years but lately looking for better music discovery options, I'll give this a go.

In my experience, street names, especially on major roads, often don't appear until you zoom right in - usually to the point of the road width basically filling the screen.

Thanks for releasing this. After doing a --dry_run can the flagged files then be removed without re-analysing all images?

Hey, I get where you're coming from, but I don't see this as being a 'free speech' issue. This isn't a public service that anyone is obliged to use - it's social media that I'm spending my time and money administering, and I don't want that effort to in any way spread right wing discourse, because I see it as harmful.

Similarly, even if it was a public service that we're talking about, say a national broadcaster, I don't buy into the notion that they should carry 'both sides of the story' out of a sense of 'balance', or upholding 'free speech', if the other side are nutters.

Had the same reaction to this email today!

I also use Navidrome + Symfonium. It's a great combo.

I moved my instance to object storage because the pictrs storage got out of hand pretty quickly! It's not really sustainable at block storage prices.

I self host speedtest-tracker for this.

Lemmy can certainly be used like an old school forum with federation disabled in the settings. The developers even made a phpBB-like front-end for it: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmyBB

I really enjoy Glen and Friends Cooking. It's a good mix of historical recipes, everyday recipes and methods, and cocktails. His aviation channel is great, too.

I do love Uptime Kuma - using it for my own instance services at status.leminal.space

Are you checking with a simple ping, https request?

I have no skin in this game as I run my own instance, but well said. I couldn't agree more with your counter points. This move, taken with the delay in defederating from fascist instances, has to be a big concern for the leftist community on LW.

Just rewatched it yesterday. He really was great in that.

nvidia-container-cli: initialization error: load library failed: libnvidia-ml.so.1: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory: unknown.

I was getting this error with docker-desktop installed, but it worked after purging and installing docker-ce instead, and running with the --gpus all command.

Not OP, but I also use Navidrome, hosted as a docker container on Synology NAS with reverse proxy for streaming outside the house. Have found the Symfonium app (paid) to be a great replacement for Spotify.

That's a big reason why I'm giving it a go! Currently importing page 1200 of 1800.

Not BBC but tangentially related, I enjoy the rolling stream of old crime and mystery radio plays that Audio Noir does. Worth checking out.

I'm running Pop! OS on a Surface Pro 5 and it works pretty much flawlessly with the Linux Surface kernel installed. That said, 99% of the time I'm using it with the keyboard attached so I haven't done much testing of it in 'tablet mode', nor with a stylus.

Yeah, all of those are blocked. You can see the current list here

Yes, has been for maybe 48 hours now and I have seeded their popular communities.

Nice, but I have questions: what is the cat top-right; why is it 100%; and what is happening in 65 years?

RGB on 'retro' devices 🤦

Mediterranean chickpea salad, like this one. I usually have it as a side but it's really filling on its own. I like to sub one can of chickpeas for beans sometimes.

Aside from the VPS and object storage for housing Leminal Space, just Proton Mail. And The Anfield Wrap if we're counting podcasts.
