He really did buy it just to delete it.

Defederating lemmy.world is a temporary measure as better mod tools are made. It isn’t worth handwringing over. Defederation should not be the norm for dealing with a few trolls, or objectionable communities.

That’s irrelevant. This proposal only gets bad if enough browsers support it that site owners can tell everybody who doesn’t use it to leave. At that point the open web is dead.

Oof

I just want big tech social media to fail. It gives too much power to Musk, Zuck, Spez, et al.

According to notebookcheck, rx7600s is already 20% faster than 4050 mobile. And this is rx7700s.

If you end up needing insurance to get help from an AI doctor bot, we have failed as a civilization.

Don’t update the firmware. In 2022 they released firmware that blocks non genuine toner.

Ditching am5 in 2026 would be disappointing. Especially with how expensive am5 boards are. I bet there won’t even be any technical reason for it like we had with a new ddr version.

They said they are replacing it with something else. I believe more money will be directly involved.

Federation/Fediverse should mean a user of any instance should be able to use any community. Gated communities shouldn’t be the expected norm. So, I would agree with the lemmy.world people who are upset at being broadly blocked from a Fediverse community. But it doesn’t matter because beehaw says it is temporary.

The key word to be searching for is “ungrab” mouse. here is a stackexchange on this.. On some systems ctrl-alt-/(on keypad) might work, but that is often disabled for security.

It really feels like Elon Musk said WOLOLO to spez and took control of his mind.

I completely forgot about info.

“Hey Bob, we need you to make an icon so ugly, people will pay to use something else.”

Two separate issues are prompting “defederation”. Blocking users from posting to your local community and blocking remote communities from being mirrored on your server. Those should be handled differently. Beehaw didn’t want trolls posting mean things and blocked every user on a server. Your concern about illegal content would be more a complaint about specific communities that feature that content.

Either way you shouldn’t blame an entire server for a few users or communities you don’t want. Expecting everyone on a instance to be like minded isn’t going to work.

Why do you think entire instances will be devoted to that? You will have to block every instance that has open registration, since any open instance cannot guarantee one of the people you mentioned will not come in. I guess the issue I have is that I see moderation as something between users and communities. Not that the overall instance should be doing the moderation.

lemmygrad.ml might actually be China. But each instance gives a list of the instances it federates with, so it should be easy for China to block them all. Lemmy has no features specifically for evading state censorship.

Cue “what you are calling Linux is actually” copypasta

I have no experience with this, but did some googling. The AMD ROCm installer instructions for Ubuntu are here. You need ROCm for HIP. That installs the entire SDK not just the runtime.

The Arch Wiki says you just need the package hip-runtime-amd. But I can’t find that package for Ubuntu.

There are also HIP installation instructions for PopOS. That’s similar to Ubuntu.

echo $(($(rdmsr -c 0xc0011029) & (1<<9) )) 

Should return 512. You might need a ‘sudo’ before the rdmsr (any permission errors in any of this means it didn’t work). Unfortunately, this needs to be done every time you reboot. The next security update for linux will do this automatically.

I wonder if he knows about the game Xcom

UTF-32 is completely fair.

This one is the best community finder that I’ve seen. Advice about shoes may be too small of an interest at this point. Lemmy (jerboa) is just starting to attract users to talk to.

Too bad we can’t short a private company.

This is a much bigger demand than the usbc charging. I wonder if they can actually pull it off. I’d be happy with simply the right to be able to use a fully independent 3rd party to replace a battery.

Can anti trust regulators please wake up!

Just ignore it, you’re not missing any functionality. Just some kind of bug.

Yeah, if you have a smart tv, you’re being spied on.

in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail

Umm, you really should have launched this before shutting down the current tools mods use.

You’re right, except I don’t see businesses moving from RHEL to Debian. Businesses are trying to buy support contracts, which Debian doesn’t have. But RedHat is trying to get vendor lock-in so businesses can’t switch to another RHEL compatible platform, even if support is offered. And for sure, RedHat “support” will be pushing solutions that only work on RHEL, not generic Linux.

That’s because passwd doesn’t store the password hashes. Just user names.

We sure, I can understand Defederation from “skinheads.social”. I’m more concerned with large instances like lemmy.world who just are rather wide-open. I wonder if large open instances are just bad.

Reddit is going to let RedReader still work. They need it for accessibility. Also the dev is thinking of letting you access lemmy with RedReader.

Yes, caching. When you ask for a remote community it doesn’t go fetch it right then. In fact, it doesn’t fetch at all. The remote community pushes when there is new data.

It might be cool to have a good news only instance. But they’d have to defederate everyone.

In the UK they had separate taps for hot and cold because the cold was safe to drink and the hot was not.

Shame they didn’t reveal what he ordered.

Completely understandable. I am not opposed to moderation or keeping people safe from harassment.

How many of those are suicides?
