it’s a case where he knows a guy just like Ronald but he’s not naming him, so he’s just talking about “Ronald”

I have one of the affected CPUs 😒

I often quote light switch rave 😁

because the thing on the screen doesn’t really exist, so when it appears to really exist it feels like magic

looks really pretty. has it recently been repotted?

3-2-1 is for backup, RAID is also for availability, eg your domain server not going down in case of drive failure. good point though.

falling behind? QUICK, everyone waste two hours of every day commuting to the fucking office so people can endlessly distract you from making it!

yeah I’ve really noticed it’s hard to find info and therefore use any project that does this.

and it must suck because anyone new, instead of finding the answer to their question in a forum archive from when it was first asked, has to log in and ask it again.

whenever I have dumb noob questions on setup and I see a discord link I give up a little.

back in the 90s I was in a very famous teeeeveeeee showww

well if you can say something funnier, I’ll post a screenshot of that

only one way to find out!

that’s the magic of science 🌈🏏🤖

but you need to hit it with a hockey stick otherwise the science doesn’t happen

urghhhhh but firefox just doesn’t perform as well. i tried, i really did. i found a 15 year old (!!) bug affecting svg drawing performance that was fucking up a page i was working on, i’m not imagining it.

I’m not sure if it’s the same one but i just found a similar bug with a five year old comment saying i guess we’re not fixing it anytime soon… https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483868

I do have it installed and check in occasionally but it feels like a downgrade when i try to use it as a daily driver.

is there any way to get a functional de-googled chromium build with settings sync across devices?

that’s kind of exciting

Asthma puffer - they are cheap, and if someone has an asthma attack (and you can have one if you don’t have a history) it saves a person’s life. I have one in my backpack, just in case. This was a tip from a first aid course I did years ago.

ohhhhhhhhhhhh i wondered why there were a lot of .ml domains for lemmy

Ya if it’s not federated already, I’m thinking the link will just remain as-is?

yeah that seems entirely reasonable. it’ll still be a big improvement in most cases. also even if it only happens as it federates initially it’ll probably still catch many cases. is it possible to do a follow-up check only for links that weren’t updated the first time? if you could store a cool-off and maximum number of tries that would probably keep it light and as functional as possible.

when serving posts with un-processed links that haven’t been updated, and it hasn’t been checked in the last 3 hours, re-check for a federated article and update. do this for up to 24 hours after the comment is posted, after that just give up? that gives it a few opportunities but doesn’t continue to waste resources if it’s unlikely the link will be resolved.

I’m not sure if it’s easy to add columns to track those attempts though.

oh that’s awesome! yeah i can see it being an issue especially if that post isn’t already federated. would be a great quality of life improvement though.

ok sounds like it’s not a feature - the link format i suggested includes both the instance ID and the instance url, so it would be possible for your home server to use that to preprocess to a useable link. I wonder if there’s a suggestions box 🙂

I think my home instance blocks porn-only instances, which is fine with me. I can open an account on the porn instance if I want, it’s not the same kind of browsing.
