  • Isn't people shifting their schedule by an hour and then back the entire reason the time change sucks? Who cares about "sun-noon connection" or the clocks "lying" to them?

  • What do you like about the fediverse and why?

    Jump

  • I think the W3C SocialWeb Working Group is working on Federated Identity right now to incorporate into ActivityPub.

  • What do you like about the fediverse and why?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I think people often assume that "good" federation means even user distribution. But the power of federation is that you can leave if you want to and no one can weaponize your social graph.

  • Pete Hegseth Is Trying to Resegregate the Military

  • Doesn't do what archive.today does, unfortunately. This article wouldn't be available in wayback.

  • Not good, for sure. Sucks that there's no working alternative. It's trivial to not participate in the DDoS at least. uBO blocks it by default.

  • That doesn't mention any Russian narrative. They altered a page as part of their personal grudge with that blogger. The same blog targeted in the DDoS attack.

  • Mastodon is testing easier ways to get you started in the fediverse

  • Scroll down. Archive.today can archive things other services can't. That's why Wikipedia was in a panic about the verifiability crisis removing their 700 000 links would cause. Most can't be replaced.

    Okay, I'm just gonna explain where I'm at with this right now and why.

    This isn't a huge issue for this community but for our hard news discussion communities, abandoning archive.today would instantly make a large amount of news inaccessible (probably 1/3 or more, but that's just a guess) to the vast majority. It could limit being fully informed to those with means. That would suck. It's a real harm.

    We're in agreement that archive.today is problematic. We really need a working alternative. The ddos attack is shitty and immature. It's a betrayal of trust. However, the victim stated in the Ars article you linked to that this hasn't really had any discernible impact on them. So for now it's a theoretical harm (and an abhorrent practice) vs a real harm.

    For me, as it stands now, I'll use alternatives where I can and use archive.today where I can't because I care a lot about that harm. I'll be ecstatic when a real alternative emerges. Like Wikipedia fell into different camps, we're probably similar. I respect that you come down on this differently, but that's where I'm at with this.

  • You know that's not a real alternative. I wish it was -- it'd make all of this a hell of a lot easier to navigate. But it just isn't.

    Jump

  • I'd take an alternative if you've got one. Otherwise, unless there's a serious change for the worse, I'm probably going to keep posting them. Sorry!

  • The craziest thing, that isn't actually mentioned in the article, is that not a single person out of 23 voted to indict. Not one.

  • [QUESTION] What is the best way to learn to cook and improve?

    Jump

  • Soups are really forgiving. You just need a stock pot. When I'd worry about a soup I was making, a chef friend of mine used to say, "it's a soup- you could put your butt in it and it would turn out fine!" I wouldn't take that as advice though.

    Just buy stock/broth. Some benefits are:

    • super nutritious
    • very easy to make a lot to eat over time
    • you don't need to do a ton of fine knife work
    • water limits your cooking temp to 100C, so it's much harder to mess it up through overcooking/burning
    • easy to start simple and add complexity as you level up. It'll still be super tasty at every stage.
