ooo, that does sound handy!

Looks like OBS is the goto. Thanks.

Which app do you use for screen recording? That’s the only thing keeping me on X11.

The article claims it’s source is Euro-Med Monitor but https://euromedmonitor.org makes no mention of organ harvesting. No press release, blog post or anything.

Lots of other ghastly stuff though, holy shit.

As long as a deleted post is no longer visible in the publicly-accessible parts of the site, that would be enough verification for me.

I don’t know how the GDPR authorities verify compliance with mainstream proprietary closed source apps, do you?

Yes, although the server will not ignore the deletion activity if that server is running Lemmy. We’re talking about Lemmy here, not the fediverse as a whole. OP singled out Lemmy in the post title and said “lemmy devs are not concerned with…”

I’m sure there is more to be done in this area. It’d be great to know for sure which software treats deletion activities properly (I’m really unsure about Kbin, I think it does not) and which does not so instance admins can make informed decisions about who they federate with. Perhaps this information could be made available right within the UI that Lemmy admins use to control their instance, rather than an obscure documentation page somewhere…

IMO having deletes federate should be part of a minimum standard all fediverse software has to meet (plus mod tools, spam control, csam filters, etc) before it is allowed to federate but obviously we’re nowhere near having that sort of social organisation.

OP is simply incorrect.

I’m coding a Lemmy alternative right now and have been testing this functionality out extensively. Deletes of posts and comments certainly federate, I’ve seen the AP traffic to make it happen. Also, the docs: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/05-federation.html#delete-post-or-comment

I haven’t tested what happens when the ‘delete account’ button is clicked… Mastodon solves this by sending a ‘delete this user’ Activity to every fediverse instance so there’s nothing about ActivityPub that makes removing an account and all it’s posts in one go impossible.

I got it to 47 KB after resizing it to 850px by 239px, heh

I’m a web developer.

Lemmy does not use the entire screen width. The way it has been embedded in the page means that image takes up only 850 pixels of horizontal space so it could be 5x smaller and no one would be able to see the difference.

Lemmy really should be automatically resizing the images (on the server) when they are uploaded, not every single time the community is viewed (in the browser).

Have you checked your C:\windows\temp folder lately?

Whenever another fixture of the 20th century leaves us, I spend a few minutes watching their clips, listening to their songs, reading their writing, or whatever they did. Gonna do that now.

RIP

That wouldn’t be cool. At all.

I’d prefer to go in the other direction (i.e. away from permissive) and add a ‘no fascists or tankies or genocide’ clause to AGPL, actually. ChatGPT assures me that would be bad and possibly illegal (?!) tho, so I might just end up putting stuff in the code of conduct which achieves the same ends.

My first instinct is to go for AGPL but the whole licensing debate isn’t something I’ve ever really engaged with so I’m not really making an informed decision about that.

What’s the advantages of a more permissive license?

I’m building a Lemmy/Kbin clone, using Python (Flask framework). I’m about 3 months in so the basics are there but it’s definitely still half-baked…

A whole bunch of 8kun / 4chan garbage. If that’s not against the rules, it should be.

You have it backwards - we don’t find a cool project we want to contribute to and then try to learn the technology needed. Instead, we already know the language/tech/tool from our work or education and then seek cool projects to contribute to that use that language/tech/tool.

As a beginner you can’t expect to rock up to a github project and be productive or even understand what is going on. Usually open source projects are not extensively documented and no one will have time to show you around. That is no way to learn.

No one can be productive in more than a handful of languages/tools. Once you have more experience you will become specialised in certain languages and can seek projects that use those languages.

For now, try to find a situation where there are people around who will invest time in helping you to build your skills. A supportive employer, or tertiary education.

The initial enthusiasm is wearing off.

Check out these graphs (scroll down) https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy. They don’t show October yet, but there are some downward trends visible.

My guess is specialized hardware. Similar to how mining crypto moved from CPU -> GPU -> ASIC, we’ll see LLM hardware that optimizes the currently-cpu-intensive pieces.

Code does not exist in isolation from the community of developers that produced it. Who we collaborate with defines us, to some degree.
