  • The Beauty Of Having A Pi-hole · Den Delimarsky

    Jump

  • Can confirm. I have 10 year old pi2 that is dedicated to pi hole and even that is not utilizing all of its 1gb of memory

  • Microsoft rolls Windows Recall out to the public nearly a year after announcing it

    Jump

  • I'm going to grad school soon for cs and they require windows 11. This is gonna be a fun test in locking down my machine and only doing updates with intention

  • What subreddit are you trying to replace on Lemmy that needs pumping up?

    Jump

  • I miss the random passion of /r/CFB. It was great because all of the toxicity normally in sports was gone, and everyone was just enjoying the game and news about their teams. In the off-season people would concoct the most convoluted, elaborate shitpost for why their team is the best. I think my favorite essay was once about how the Alabama Crimson Tide's greatest enemy wasn't any other team, but the full moon, and went into a heavy statistical data dive to demonstrate how the teams few losses (they were seriously on an unprecedented run for over a decade) all came on or around the full moon. That and the team are the Tide, so of course it's the moon.

    That type of energy focuses on college football is lacking in Lemmy, and I haven't found something similar here yet

  • Does Lemmy have an ghost community problem?

    Jump

  • Pardon my reddit jargon, but there is a Lemmy equivalent to a sub for "would anyone be interested in X topic?" That might be a good way to help. It also makes another community for people to adopt and use, though, which is the problem you're describing

  • Leaking the email of any YouTube user for $10,000

    Jump

  • I was just thinking "maybe I can just give them my email..." but of course it isn't that simple

  • Is there a way to have a less depressing Lemmy experience?

    Jump

  • I do think it's important to keep up to date. Even discounting the things I can't control getting through my filters, there have been things that have directly affected my family and their jobs because of things Trump has done and I did not know about until after the fact. There is a line somewhere that you should be aware of, or else you may just be burying your head in the sand.

    Separately, I use boost for Lemmy on android. Thank you for telling me about tesseract. I haven't been as successful with any keyword filters in browser

  • Is there a way to have a less depressing Lemmy experience?

    Jump

  • I've taken a bit of a different approach. I've been using a keyword filter to remove posts that contain any words I don't care to read about. So no posts about trump, Elon, RFK, cyber trucks, etc.

    I am not here to get that kind of news, I do that separately with the news sources I can trust and verify. Otherwise any tabloid or sensational opinion piece can potentially try to ruin my day all in the name of getting clicks

  • Decentralized Instagram alternative Pixelfed launches mobile apps

  • My guess, as a cloud developer, there may be a bottleneck at their authentication, or session management. Your web browser has probably been signed in for a while. I'm guessing your app hasn't been able to get past that point, and is stuck in the bottleneck

  • Those who live outside of the US, what's something Americans aren't ready to hear?

    Jump

  • As an American. Hard agree. I long for a first past the post voting system reform

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • As a software engineer, I would think to call this a patch or a hotfix. I agree that recall for this type of situation is a bit too dramatic, but I'd also say that patch or hotfix are too casual sounding

  • Despite our differences in social upbringing, nationality, language, religion, etc... We all agree in 1 thing, that Die Hard is a Christmas Movie, right?

    Jump

  • It's about a man at a Christmas party that has gone incredibly wrong. It's a Christmas movie

  • I want to learn how to code

    Jump

  • I always recommend https://automatetheboringstuff.com/ as it helps teach you python basics, as well as learning some coding fundamentals. Its free at the website, while offering a book version you can purchase. I have been coding in python professionally for 5 years, but I started with these tutorials (after doing a non-python coding bootcamp that focused on full stack web development)

  • are there any Lemmy clients in Android that allow for filtering out posts based on key words?

    Jump

  • I just downloaded it! So far it's easy to pick up

  • What food did you hate in the past, but enjoy now?

    Jump

  • I hated strawberries growing up. I would do anything and everything to not eat them. As an as adult I finally tried them again and loved them. It turns out I just hated low quality or not ripe strawberries

  • What is S3 storage?

    Jump

  • I have been exposed as a fraud and I will take my punishment! j/k, but worth noting

  • What is S3 storage?

    Jump

  • As part of AWS? S3 stands for "simple storage solution" and it is used for storing data in the cloud. A typical s3 setup has a "bucket" which would act like a folder directory on your computer. At that point it can be pretty much however you want to set it up. In theory it can store anything, as long as it can be converted into a binary string, I believe. I havent worked in AWS in a few years, but I recall it being easy enough to use for storing files when handling file transfers with other microservices like Lambdas. You just need to configure a few things, like the bucket name, the "file name" (I say it that way, because you dont necessarily have to store files - and anything stored in s3 has to be converted to that binary string), and the

    It can be even more than just simple storage when used with other microservices, the possibilities can be endless
