In addition to what the other commenter said, Mozilla doesn’t have the will to improve Firefox into a market contender.
They get a lot of free money from their competitors to prevent legislations from attacking chromium for market monopoly which makes them prioritize making Google happy more than their users.
They also have very controversial opinions regarding actual useful features such as progressive web apps (where support was given exclusively on Android but after a lot of complains). You can’t make your browser into a market contender if you act like Safari on PC.
10 years ago when we had a 3 way market, Mozilla actually cared about making a good product.
Nowadays, they are just Google’s shell company to keep Chrome’s dominance away from the anti-competivity law suits.
In addition, Facebook already had support for XMPP at some point in time but killed it.
Why? Because they couldn’t dry users off other platforms after Google closed their own support for XMPP.
Even if Meta “play nice”, we already know their aim. Siphon users off mastodon and then remove activityPub support when most servers are on life support from loss of users.
Show them this video and tell them this is what happens when you neglect your teeths. https://libreddit.domain.glass/r/popping/comments/py6qlw/teeth_cleaning_i_feel_this_was_the_most/
Nearly nobody will get a mouth that bad if they at least care to look at their teeths from time to time and have a basic hygiene, both dietary and oral.
But to at least get them interested, this video does the work really well.
(The video shows removal of a massive plaque of tartar. So I don’t recommend anyone uncomfortable, with looking at the inside of mouths and with seeing some bleeding, to watch this video)
It’s more that UBI is just not financially possible for any country.
I live in a country with the highest tax rate on the continent and with just 20% of our population as pensioners, the situation is just getting worse and worse even though 49% of the population has a tax rate between 25 and 50% (+13% from welfare taxes). Just with this small percentage, we are spending 20% of our budget in pensions. More than any other area by at least 5% of our national budget.
If the state now had to pay an UBI to 69% of our population on top of this, the very minimum to pay off the UBI without going bankrupt would be to sell off the free healthcare and public transport in their entirety. And I’m assuming a small UBI of 500€/month (Not even enough to rent a 1 room appartement with utilities in some areas).
UBI would destroy any country’s budget for what? Landlord increasing rent to match the UBI, corporations increasing prices to match the inflation and people wasting that money when it could have been put to use to increase renewable energy production, improve education, …
UBI is only a good idea in paper and you only need to look at the public expenses of most European countries + have a basic understanding of capitalist greed to see it.
It’s really good. There are some issues here and there like some games not launching when using upscaling or some non default settings.
But otherwise, most games run on it and better than on PS3 with recent CPUs.
This feels like a very bad joke.
You could buy one of those embedded CPU/RAM motherboard, 3d print a tablet like case for it + design a screen for that case, install linux with a GUI supporting touchscreen and you created a much better product for the fraction of the cost.
How do they even find customers to buy this thing?
Not just posts. Any message you are sending to anyone is unencrypted and can easily be looked at by instance owners.
Unextended ActivityPub makes it so that everything is shared without privacy, any operation is “best-effort” and also depends on the goodwill of the target (ie: a server could refuse all delete on purpose or refuse to deliver messages/posts without any hints)
Oracle Linux is 100% the cause of this change.
Imagine supporting 2 other distros to make your own enterprise linux that is your only source of money through optional subscriptions to it.
Then some other big unethical corporation (much like your own parent company) comes in, use the GPL license to clone it and slap an “Oracle db certified” sticker on it. Finally, they decide to use the same subscription model as you except they get insane margins since you did 99% of the work for them.
But looking at what Rocky Linux is saying publicly. It’s not impossible that Red Hat won’t levy their right to remove access to the sources to non-commercial forks of RHEL.
Even if you own an instance, the tools are non-existent.
Some basics things that should be present but aren’t:
The API is also lacking in a way that some of those things are not possible without deploying your own API talking directly with the postgress database.
For example, if you wanted to see upvote/downvotes for each individual users, the data to calcultate it is in the database but the Lemmy API doesn’t provide that functionality.
While Lemmy is great as a platform, the management side of is glueing everything together just enough to not let it implode.
/api/v3/site returns an object with the property “my_user” which itself has a property “follows”.
For more details on the objects structure. The api documentation on join-lemmy should suffice.
The issue is that it could still be abused against small instances.
For example, I had a bit less than 10 bots trying to signup to my instance today (I had registration with approval on) and those account are reported as instance users even though I refused their registration.
So even if you don’t allow spam accounts to get into your instance, you can easily get blacklisted from that list because creating a few dozen thousands account registration requests isn’t that hard even against an instance protected by captcha.
Thanks for the correction. In that case going to be interesting how this issue progress.
This is also the vulnerability that made many people delete Keepass 2 for XC many months ago so it is very strange that they make an article that sounds like it’s a new vulnerability.
Meta aka Facebook plans to create a new product compatible with ActivityPub (What allows the feddiverse to federate).
No one wants to allow cancer to spread so this list came to exist.
It is fine. But for your personal growth and some more peace of mind, you should migrate the repository to one of the git services of your organization.
Personal growth because you will be able to use feature like branch policies, CICD pipelines or an integrated work item board.
Peace of mind because that network share is less likely to be recoverable than a self hosted gitlab instance for example.
The migration process also only take less than 5 min so there are more advabtages than disadvantages to do so.
For development, I have a single image per project tagged “dev” running locally in WSL that I overwrite over and over again.
For real builds, I use pipelines on my Azure DevOps server to build the image on an agent using a remote buildkit container and push it in my internal repository. All 3 components hosted in the same kubernetes cluster.
