I've been using this music player for the past few years, it has been fantastic, I usually keep it collapsed while I work. Until today, it was showing a useless folder name, but I've changed it so it prints the song playing instead.

If you coat the JTAG probe in chocolate it goes down easier.

@lmgenealogy I've had my own experiences and yes it takes a long time. But people very slowly change.

What I have found is that when folks see that they can do things in the FLOSS world that they can't do in the proprietary software world, they're more likely to switch.

My spouse made the switch to Linux this past year on their personal laptop with the Win10 end of life. They had a perfectly functional 4th gen i7 with 16 GB RAM. M$ would have them trash this machine.

Tonight on Star Trek
Mr. Scott talks with Spock's brain however finds the ship overrun with holodeck characters!

Sharing of ideas and code is a core tenant of FOSS. PyLova literally started as a copy of Piefed. Why shouldn’t the ideas and features flow both ways?

Multiple images in posts and in-line comment editing are basic features coppied from Reddit (and, like, every social media site), which probably coppied them from somewhere else. Let’s not pretend like PyLova is breaking new ground here, lmao.

Do you have any context/source for “Rimu’s hostile history”? Because I’ve tried looking into that a few times but I’ve only ever found this Piefed devlog post which makes Piefed sound reasonable but obviously has every incentive to be biased.

The best car chase of all time is probably the entire run time of Mad Max: Fury Road

where's the oom killer when you need it

I use both, starting another flamewar doesn’t seem positive for either project.

"Public Citizen painstakingly calculated the likely cost to regular investors: $4.7 billion, including $3.2 billion from the meme coin and another billion from the $WLFI token."

Never felt more seen than the columnist's use of "painstakingly" here.

I mean, it makes running a smaller instance a lot easier. Maybe read what it actually does and think about why it would potentially be problematic.

Presumably people running small instances would make us of this drawing on moderation efforts from a bigger instance that they trust. It’ll benefit people on smaller or single use instances, but shouldn’t affect the majority of users. Just makes decentralization more painless.

I agree some other name such as “filtered banlist federation” or something could seem less scary as a label than “auto-ban”.

Yay totp

Yes blocking whole instances is pretty efficient.

This feature might not end up getting used much. That happens a lot but until we try it we won’t know. But it’s a pretty big thing on a lot of platforms, like Bluesky, so I think it’s worth a try.

I don't feel that strongly about it. I think I just blocked Lemmy.ml and dbzero or whatever the hell it's called.

Yes I expect it will be a mixed bag. But we all know how much blocking new people need to do to make this place livable so hopefully this will help people get to that state quicker.

I think it’s way healthier than the uninvited community mixing that comes from automated post merging. There’s already a pretty significant ideological bent against moderating communities on the threadiverse; this is just an opt-in tool to counter the entitlement to an audience.
