If you add support for kbin, you’ll probably going to add support for kbin’s microblogging feature. If you added support for kbin’s microblogging, might as well add mastodon support. Heck, might as well add pixelfed support to the mix, why not? Voila, now you have a super federated app.

It’s not 3rd party app developers fault that kbin didn’t have any stable api yet. Now that they fast track the api development, I think we can expect more 3rd party apps coming soon.

Revolt!? That dog is fucking embrace it!

I haven’t noticed any performance issue so far. I think they use wasm which help with speed. Too bad it’s not open source, but the fact it’s developed by a single guy working on it full time is actually very interesting, considering the webapp is actually work better than some apps developed by bigger teams. It can even edit PDF and gif!

photopea.com is actually pretty great, much easier to use than gimp with similar (or even better) feature set.

Storing time series data in ram so you can instantly generate pretty graph of various metrics is all the rage right now. The longer you want to keep the the data, the bigger the ram requirements. You might be wondering, why not storing the data on SSD? The answer is the bosses love pretty charts that loads INSTANTLY. The fact the the metrics database uses 200GB of RAM is not their concern.

Looks like they won’t publish a timelapse video after it’s all over like last year.

They did blur the screenshots though, but yeah, pretty much flexing that they can browse anything without restriction in their office, lmao.

It’s Indonesia btw. That reminds me, I do have a concern about Lemmy instances that use .id TLD (e.g. lemdro.id). It’s Indonesian TLD, so it might subject to Indonesian law, so they’ll might run into trouble if they federate with porns communities. Might be a similar situation where websites with .ly TLD got into trouble with Libyan government back then.

Back in the day, we tried to get Reddit unblocked in our country, which blocks porn websites. No amount of arguments can convince the government agency in charge of the block list that Reddit is not a porn site. They probably got tired of us pestering them and send back a whole bunch of screenshots of porns in Reddit to justify the block.

I guess Reddit is a porn site.

Could be because they have more users slowing down the repo servers, especially for debian as it’s used by a huge proportion of docker images, which tends to pull a bunch of packages during the build process eating tons of bandwidth.

Nvidia cards are mostly working fine these days as long as you’re not using Wayland. If you’re using Wayland, be prepared to encounter lots of minor annoyances, and perhaps some bugs that completely break your workflow depending what you’re using Linux for (e g. on server you don’t have to deal with sleep issues, but in desktop it’s an annoyance while on laptop it might be a deal breaker).

Meanwhile me using my own instance and don’t see any commies or nsfw posts except for the occasional spam…

You’ can try installing yt-dlp. That one is still actively maintained. YouTube also actively trying to broke it, so the one available in debian repo might be out of date.

Who need GUI apps when you can do these things on CLI:

• view image: imcat my-image.png
• watch video, even YouTube: mpv --vo=tct "https://youtube.com/watch?v=BBJa32lCaaY"
• browse the web using modern Firefox engine: browsh
• listen to your Spotify playlists: spt play --name "Your Playlist" --playlist --random

and perhaps many more I’m not currently aware of…

You can re-enable it in about:config

It’s true. I ended up creating an ssh tunnel using autossh to a bastion server to escape the awfulness, but don’t tell the IT department I did that.

Microsoft is probably considering to release an enterprise Linux product right now. Perhaps called Windows Subsystem for Enterprise Linux.

This particular type of interrupt exists because it would feel really bad if you were typing, and the text didn’t show up until several seconds later when the CPU felt like processing the (hopefully) buffered input.

Meanwhile me enjoying multiple seconds latency when typing some commands in ssh using putty inside a windows VM using RDP accessed via a shitty corporate VPN from the other side of the world, while using another VPN because corporate blocked all traffics from other countries…

Those Unicode people really thought of everything, right? They even anticipated some resurrected mummies would want to sent text to each other, so they added Egyptian hieroglyphs and have all phones and computer in the planet to support it.

This is just a matter of personal preference, but I can’t stand libreoffice UI. It has more features but I don’t open office documents much, mostly just some basic spreadsheets, so I can get away with using a document editor with less feature but easier to the eye.
