  • Idea: Threadiverse Vibrancy Challenge

    Jump

  • I really like this idea and think it's awesome!

  • What's something cool you've made?

    Jump

  • Thanks, I'll see what can be done about that!

  • Does Mastodon bring anything of value to a Lemmy user?

    Jump

  • When your instance upgrades you'll be able to follow Mastodon accounts in Piefed and see their posts in your home feed.

  • Never lose faith in humanity.

    Jump

  • Yes, good goal.

    However if Lemmy is flooded with posts made by a small handful of people it just looks like another bot farm. Try to post like a human - space things out a bit. If your Lemmy client app doesn't support post scheduling, consider using a different app.

  • What are the tools for your self-hosted lemmy experience?

    Jump

  • PieFed includes RSS posting functionality out of the box, btw.

  • Wayland Found To Be "Intrinsically Faster Than X11, But Not Necessarily More Efficient"

    Jump

  • haha openbox wins all

  • What it something a parent did that damaged your relationship with them forever with no recovery.

    Jump

  • Mine posted a hangman's noose on Facebook with reference to my old place of work. Basically calling for the lynching of everyone inside and all people like us.

    There was a lot of other stuff besides but that was when I knew for sure the person I used to know was gone.

  • Best laptop hardware?

    Jump

  • Yes. There is no "best laptop for compiling Rust", with a reasonable price tag.

    All laptop CPUs are extremely weak versions of desktop CPUs and rust is famously heavy on CPU during compilation.

    The winning move here is to not use a laptop.

  • Slop Debt

    Jump

  • Yep.

    I expect that in small codebases the effect will be manageable but anything beyond that... It's just a matter of time.

  • Aaron Swartz was prosecuted for scraping, while Meta does it without consequence

    Jump

  • I'm not pretending there isn't a class war. That would be silly of me.

    When people start acting like the class war is happening right here between their fellow fedi citizens, that's when it becomes a bit unhinged.

  • The August 17 outage, and the work ahead

    Jump

  • Since April, monthly commits have grown from 1.4 billion to 2.9 billion.

    Slopcoders are flooding it.

  • Orange 🧡

    Jump

  • Aaron Swartz was prosecuted for scraping, while Meta does it without consequence

    Jump

  • Take it easy. artyom might just be mistaken you don't need to turn it into a class war.

  • An amazing directory: /proc

    Jump

  • Thank you!

  • Don't paste the AI.

    Jump

  • The next billion dollar company will be a wrapper around Claude that strips out the em dashes.

  • Don't paste the AI.

    Jump

  • I got an email from a client last week asking me to install an AI-generated list of containers onto a server. The key container, the database at the center of the whole system, has commits from Claude in it's git repository. Great start guys.

    They outsouced the software architect job to a chatbot and then had a veteran of the industry who has been around since the internet equivalent of the big bang install a handful of docker containers. Reverse centaur to the max.

    It's going to hurt in 12 months time if they realise the reason why everything sucks is because they built on sand. But they probably won't even realise why the project failed because their chatbot won't be able to tell them why.

  • French civil servant drugged us to make us urinate on ourselves, say accusers

    Jump

  • The Asian Trump is in a prison cell in The Hague. Hopefully they manage to convict him before USA Trump finishes his rugpull of the ICC.

  • fail2ban behind reverse proxy (nom)

    Jump

  • I did not, it seemed complicated and rabbit-hole-y.

    In the end I just added an Anubis-like feature into PieFed. It works great.

  • I don't enjoy the Internet any more

    Jump

  • It really makes a big difference.

    I've greatly reduced my Mastodon usage because of the daily "oh shit this link goes to AI slop again, sigh, close tab" experience. It's such a drag.
