Absolutely. We’re far from relevant so the bot / bad actor influx is probably negligible. Defederation won’t protect anyone, they’ll just use the major few instances and get access to 90% of feeds. Afaik points and account age don’t matter, so bans don’t matter. At this point, Lemmy has no defenses.

Unfettered platforms will be overrun in no time. Hate and bigotry are incredibly easy to create and sell.

We had printer drivers that would show a notification for net send. The broadcast went out to several schools for some reason and it was basically a spell to summon our head of IT.

One time I sent something after it was forbidden and the guy came crashing through the door, demanding who was using a specific laptop. Turns out that laptop was broken and sitting in its receptacle and a friend of mine tried to use it just a minute earlier.

Good times.

JavaScript and PeePee are really going at it, huh.

Of course. Everyone who’s ever used a DB knows it’s BS. As long as the data is structured - which it a) is because he was able to make assertions about it and b) fucking Excel files are enough - it CAN be imported and SQL’d on. Even Excel has built in support for fuck’s sake, not to mention Python and PowerQuery.

The dude is a self-certified moron - he probably struggles with the concept of PKI, too.

I’m sure backups and redundancies are “inefficient” since “everything is in the cloud, anyway”.

“usual whore talk”

We can’t afford to wait at every sop, yeld, or one vay sign!

Good on you to have integrity.

But yeah, that’s what I gather, too, whenever I check. Nothing we do has an impact. I’m hoping the huge renewables push in China over the last few years might finally have an effect, but :(

Are those emission rates per capita or absolute?

No, Georg, stop it!

Getting DNS and DHCP mixed up here.

DNS you set in your DHCP, DHCP you either disable or enable.

Set the PiHole as DNS on your router or disable DHCP on the router altogether and enable it on the Pi. The former is simpler.

Four spiders, numbered 1, 2, 3, and 5. Large enough to be legible of course.

Pretty amazing how much you can milk fragile masculinity. Like actually astounding how badly these people need the vague idea of manliness to survive. It kinda makes me feel bad for them, that’s learned behavior.

Doesn’t teaching involve learning?

Oh, Siemens.

Yeah.
