Looks like Trisquel judging by the logo in the lower left.

I love IDLES, don't know how they didn't make the list. Never Fight a Man with a Perm was playing on my commute.

I honestly wouldn't mind seeing an extension to the IRC spec to bring in reasonable discord-like functionality to some servers. It's time we start moving back to open standards from walled gardens.

I work a day job in IT, have a side business doing IT, work an occasional shift at my buddy's liquor store, and sell furniture on the side.

I'll stop buying apple when I can get a multi-core arm machine that's not made of scrapbin plastic from a traditional PC manufacturer. I have two M1 machines running Asahi Linux and they're excellent computers.

Youtube has put me onto a lot of Australian stuff lately, such as Smoko (The Chats) and Hertz (Amyl and the Sniffers) as well as some more indie stuff like Wet Leg. I might just be old but these bands are all new to me and I love it.

I would be glad to make a reocurring donation somehow. Maybe $15 or 20usd/mo to offset some of the cost of the server as it has to be scaled up.

It's funny they chose that tactic to promote, seeing as walmart corporate will do all but burn the building down whenever there's a successful union drive or anything that looks like it could manifest one. They'll close the store indefinitely for 'cleaning', toss any spoiled inventory, and hire an all new crew. So not quite burning it down, but they'll definitely footgun themselves to prevent any worker choice. Burning it down would do all the work for them.

Literally the two subs are identical in content posted for the last several months

I'd wager this is due to the sheer volume of new users and new content and some of the instances needing to be scaled up to larger servers to handle it. A bit of growing pains, not unlike those experienced by Mastodon back last year.

What there needs to be is concerted development focus on fixing these quality of life issues. Unfortunately, there was not much time allowed for this to happen seeing as it was about a week or two from the announcement to the start of the blackout. These things take time and development time isn't always available.

Bringing the r/place concept here would be cool, perhaps different instances could all do something similar of their own? Federated r/place sounds fun. :^)

I don't think so, but I could be wrong. I guess the "groups" functionality of Facebook could technically qualify it as such, but its primarily aimed at being a social media website. I'm not 100% on it either, because there's a lot of overlap between platforms and their functionality.

It's no longer wednesday, but I've been working on getting my office set up. I've rented some space from a friend in the town I live in to run my IT business out of. It's getting pretty cozy.

So my understanding is Reddit, or specifically u/spez, tried to claim that the Apollo developer was blackmailing them over the entire API pricing debacle. The Apollo developer posted the audio and transcript of the call with Reddit showing they were lying. Now they've claimed his App is poorly developed and making wasteful amounts of API calls- so now he's posted a large swath of code online to disprove that also.
tl;dr reddit CEO caught in a couple lies

Make sense. Deleting a post probably just toggles a 'deleted' flag in the database and doesn't touch the post contents. Writing over the comment, however, would actually change the data. Then you can proceed to delete it.

It's been such a slow decline but the writing has been on the wall for a while. Maybe this is the push everyone needs to take a chance on a new platform.

It's in the name, mostly. It aggregates content. You can post links, text posts, images to specific communities and have them displayed in a feed of your communities of choice. That's what Digg was and Reddit is, and kind of what Lemmy is doing- except on the Fediverse.

iirc they just went ahead and implemented a large swath of the policy changes anyway, and hoped nobody would notice the doublespeak.

I just use the email metaphor and it usually gives people a rough idea how it works. It seems more complicated than it is.

Honestly, a Lorex/Dahua/Hikvision IP camera, or even a no-name amazon IP camera should work. They all support ONVIF and can generally be watched over HTTP. They don't require a NVR or anything and certainly don't require anything more than a network connection. They're not wireless, however.

I was showing off for a girl I was seeing, using my pullup bar. I live in a small cabin so it's over the only doorframe that had clearance for the handles- the one between my kitchen and bathroom. I pull myself up and it strikes me as a good idea to put my feet up on the bar to attempt to hang by the legs.
Naturally, my feet go backwards over my head, feeling like I'm about to rip my rotator cuffs, I just drop. Straight onto a tile floor. Knock the wind out of myself and shockingly I don't hit my head. Hurt my back, shoulders, and pride quite a bit.

I generally use Linux (Debian) or MacOS, since I own a couple apple silicon macs. I do try and use HaikuOS as much as possible, since its POSIX implementation is pretty mature and is seeing a good amount of software ported.

I don't know why but I thought they'd already ended support.
