IIRC Vine and Coub made it mainstream more than 12 years ago, it’s not something new. Gifs are basically a prequel of the format.
If people wouldn’t like it, it wouldn’t survive this long, and wouldn’t be copied by every other company and requested in threads like this. It’s alright if you don’t like them but please let other people have fun. You don’t have to “learn” from everything, it’s just jokes and light entertainment.
But it’s a Friendica post, not from Mastodon. You can’t write such a long posts on mastodon
Since I stopped using mainstream socialmedia I can’t follow musicians I’m interested in. Some have a bandcamp page and rss works there, but they just upload their albums there, nothing else. At least I get notified about new releases. I tried to follow facebook and instagram pages via rss-bridge, but it’s not working for years now. My selfhosted bibliogram sometimes work, but it’s unmaintained so it will die at some point if instagram changes something. (I just found there is a maintained fork, yess) My ip usually gets blocked, so I get all posts once a week only in batch.
So I’m interested, unfortunately none of them enabled fedi integration yet, (afaik it’s a settings for them in threads) so I’m waiting when they will enable it for everyone.
I don’t want to debate about politics or whatever you are afraid of.
There was a vote about it in !meta@lemm.ee : https://lemm.ee/post/851217
I wanted to vote against defederation (edit: i was offline that week or something, I can see I didn’t vote) I liked on this instance that we are treated as adults, and the admin let us decide what we want to see. You can block instances if you want. Defederating with Threads even before we can see how it would work goes against this philosophy.
Afaik there is no way to see anything from threads on lemmy yet, connection with mastodon like services work only, so we are again debating about a not yet existing thing.
If it will work between threads and lemmy I will look for another instance where I can devide what I want to see.
Iphone 4 had a shitty antenna design. This was the first iphone with a metal frame around, on the sides of the phone. If you holded it with your left hand you could easily accidentally short the two parts of the antenna, basically cutting all signals.
This was definetily a design fault, there was even class action lawsuit against Apple. When they asked Steve Jobs about this, he replied:
“You are holding it wrong.”
Antennagate happened 14 years ago. A lot users are too young to remember that
How this photo related to the fediverse? c/lostlemmings?
It’s true what you write, but it’s not related to Wayland/X11.
But this is the reason CAD software can’t use multiple cpu cores for geometry calculations. The next calculation needs the result of the previous one, it can’t be parallelized.
Buy a better case for the mobo. I modded once an mITX motherboard to an ancient HP Proliant microserver case, it’s not that hard. Mobos like this doesn’t have standard screw distances, but you don’t have to secure all screws in a ghetto server. 2 screws and some padding is enough, with 3 screws you are overengineering.
It’s a Fujitsu W26361 There isn’t a lot of info about it on the net, all the links are rotten.
You have a sata port. You have to use an external power supply for that. Or maybe one of the pins next to it can supply the required voltage, you can use a multimeter to figure it out if you are brave. I guess the white one labeled PWR should be supply some volts. To be safe you can split the power of the other sata ssd or buy something like this:
You also have 2 an mPCIe or mSATA port. It’s impossible to tell the difference from a photo, because they use the same connector.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#Mini-SATA_(mSATA)_variant
Without any more knowledge I would guess at least one of them is an mPCIe. Having 2 sata ports and an 2 mSATA next to it would be strange, they could use the mPCIe for a 3G modem or wifi, it would make more sense in a thin client like this.
If it’s an mPCIe you can buy a sata expansion there and even connect up to 4 sata drives. Looks like something like this:
You can convert it to normal PCIe or m.2, the possibilities are endless:
If it’s not mPCIe but mSATA, you can buy mSATA SSD there, they are really rare nowadays. Or you can buy an mSATA to SATA adapter:
I’m not familiar with linux mint, why?
Also they can switch to debian base relatively easily
I just read the article and they say exactly what I guessed:
“This approach would guarantee stability on the appointed release day, but was proving unpopular with consumers looking to adopt the latest features and hardware support as well as silicon vendors looking […] to align their Ubuntu support,” Canonical’s Brett Grandbois explains.
But to “provide users with the absolute latest in features and hardware support, Ubuntu will now ship the absolute latest available version of the upstream Linux kernel at the specified Ubuntu release freeze date, even if upstream is still in Release Candidate (RC) status.”
Maybe stability is not a frequent issue nowadays, and they need the new kernel to support new hardware more quickly?
E.g. I can imagine a new linux friendly laptop can’t be sold with ubuntu preinstalled because the old kernel is not supporting some parts yet, but it’s already merged upstream. Or something like that.
I thought for a second it’s !badrealestate@feddit.uk
Search for “vfio single gpu”, It’s possible, but it has drawbacks. Iirc you have to run everything as root or something like that.
Another recommended way is to run a headless linux as host, and passthrough the gpu to a linux guest next to a windows guest, than you just switch between the guests
Yes that is another option. I know 7zip works there, win11 is mostly the same as win7 under the hood, but I would install a supported frontend instead of fiddling with the registry, tweaks like that can break after updates
I don’t use windows personally, just set it up for others. I don’t care enough to tweak the registry for them, if there are more convenient solutions
File explorer’s built in archiver is still lagging behind, while it’s mostly usable, last time I tried to open a password protected rar, and it didn’t show a pw dialog just failed silently. 7zip opened it correctly
7zip doesn’t support the new win11 rightclick menu (yet), nanazip is a fork with full win11 support:
Other free services I had good experiences with:

Twitter was financially in a bad shape for a long time, the first year they generated some profit was 2018. Source Vine existed 2012-2017, I think they couldn’t figure out how to monetize it. Twitter was a text based platform, tiktok was designed for video from conception.
But I still don’t know why they didn’t try to sell it instead of shutting it down.
Coub was also nearly shut down in 2022, it seems like it’s hard to profitably maintain a short video service.
One more thing could have an important impact was music rights. Tiktok has special deals with record labels for background music, Coub was Russian, so they could just pirate music. Streaming wasn’t big back than, only spotify existed, labels couldn’t figure yet out how to milk internet users, so I guess Vine couldn’t get as good deals as it would now. Too early, too legal.
