  • Who do you hope is secretly funding your favorite streamer?

    Jump

  • For youtubers, I'd be absolutely giddy if Technology Connections was secretly paid off by grocery stores to sell discount dishwasher detergent. (And they'd be right)

    For streamers, well I've always liked the thought of Sasha Grey being paid for by a large church. Either the LDS or like Methodists or something.

  • Yes it is possible and it is required. The cou microcode is patented and licensed. It's why arm is such a unique and cool thing, arm is open and does not require a license. However converting enetirr architectures to arm is no small task.

  • You're right, and it bugs me when people say things like "Or seattle", my hometown, or any city. US cities get a very bad rap because our conservatives push "cities bad and scary" to small town/suburban residents, who are now terrified to go into cities. Furthermore they convince them that if you build transit or do anything for the city that the "problems" that are in the city will leak into their suburbs.

    It boils down to one thing for me. These problems are real, but being able to say "City scary" allows people to shift blame to the city. Them being afraid that it could leak out to their areas proves that. It's not the city's fault. It's society's fault, and most people don't like to be reminded that problems actually exist and our society we've built has real casualties. By having a homeless problem "in Seattle" or "in Dublin" it allows them to feel superior, like their town wouldn't be the exact same if it suddenly 20x'd in size. They don't need to think about homeless because it's that city's problem. Seeing homeless makes them feel things, and they don't like that. It's callous, it's selfish, and it reeks of putting heads in sand as far as I'm concerned.

    As for city dwellers, we're surrounded by it every day. We empathize, we donate to our food banks, we do what we can - but most of all we don't have the luxury of pretending the problems don't exist. So when I see a post like this I roll my eyes. Keep your eyes down, don't make eye contact, let them move on, and then think about donating to your local food bank or detox center. In fact, I think I'll go donate to mine now.

    Do you know any tricks to disenshittify a work computer?

    Jump

  • Probably trying to help OP too. In the case of YouTube, I've know management who want to know how long people use work computers for YouTube, so it blocks it. Take the hint op. Do personal things on personal devices. Work computer is for work

  • Can federating be modified so it's not dependent domain names?

    Jump

  • I think even then that's a solvable problem though. A unique hash of your server so if you move and start refederating the same process could happen. It'd require more work on the individual instance admin, but could be done

  • GitHub - minio/minio: "This repository was archived by the owner on Apr 25, 2026. It is now read-only."

    Jump

  • They've been anti-open source for a while, they clearly don't see a profit motive without killing off their open source side. Anyone selfhosting or into open source should consider MinIO dead, and migrate. Hopefully someone forks it.

  • Can federating be modified so it's not dependent domain names?

    Jump

  • I think this could be solved with a migration window though, and a proper migration path in code. You spin up a new instance, clone your data. Then on old instance it sends a .well-known redirect message, or 301s for everything. Then receiving servers whenthey get that know to update all of their references. You keep it up for however long you think you should for all of the other severs to update.

  • Not a good sign

    Jump

  • It's very interesting that the nukes dropped will be mentioned, but the real death toll of the century was plain simple greed and selfishness. Those two working together have and will kill countless more in the upcoming century

  • Introducing Threadirator - A Threadiverse Community Federator

    Jump

  • That makes sense to me then. My worry as a tiny instance owner, is that I'm worried I'll get flooded with requests, that's a lot of traffic I'd be signing up for. Larger DBs, more ingress, any thoughts on that?

  • Introducing Threadirator - A Threadiverse Community Federator

    Jump

  • It could use a bit more explanation on what I'm registering for in the signup. Am I signing up for your instance? Do you need credentials for a bot account on my instance? If so, what exactly will it be doing?

  • Trump slammed as "a wolf in sheep clothing" (IMHO, the "sheep clothing" looks pretty wolfy)

    Jump

  • “I feel betrayed, like he was a wolf in sheep’s clothing,” Bright, who has several disabling medical conditions, said. “It’s like high school class president: ‘I’m gonna promise we are going to get pizza every single day,’” Bright said. “Then as soon as they get elected, they are like, ‘Oh, I lied.’”

    You're forgetting the parts where everyone was telling you how it was impossible, asking how he would pay for all of the pizza, and then you screaming back "fuck you nerds".

    Oh and the fact that we're not in high school and your adult level critical thinking skills should have seen right through the obvious lies

  • At what point does a person become an "adult"?

    Jump

  • Was about to say something similar. There's no real moment. It's not turning a certain agem it's when you realize you are a sum of everything you've done, your faults and your wins. When you realize how silly you were as a teenager and are glad you've moved on. No date, but you'll know when you already are.

    Should we ban porn?

    Jump

  • Surprisingly this is the safest time to be in porn. OnlyFans and others allow sex workers to set their own prices and control what they will and won't do.

  • Hey Jerkface :)

    Completely get where you're coming from. I'll admit I like the occasional saucy spicy comic. I'd suggest we start with the allow tagged NSFW, and then see what happens. If it gets to be too much a new community could be spun off.

    I moderate a few, and I've seen people too eagerly try to spin off new communities like reddit, but here it takes a long time for any traction to happen. So while I'm for more communities, spinoffs should be once there is a critical mass, like a ton of NSFW comics.
