The comments are worth a giggle but the AI voice ruins it. Also horrible choice of music.

Politicians decide things, but to actually make stuff happen, the government needs to collect taxes to pay for services that are then provided to the public. I think the idea here is to take out the middleman. You won’t solve the problem country wide, but you’ll help some people, and that’s still worth it. Work together without like-minded people locally, be an inspiration, and show that it works. I’ve only been very briefly part of an activist group (specialized in food saving), so probably best to look elsewhere for good advice on how to do this well.

Then you should also override Equals(object), GetHashCode, and implement IEquatable<T>.

Thankfully a lot of the usual boilerplate code can be avoided using a record class or struct:

public record Person(string Name, uint Age);

I was editing my comment as you were responding. Check the issue on GitHub I linked in the edit, and maybe thumbs it up for visibility. One of the commenters mentions using a third-party tool but I’m not sure the one they linked to can grab posts. In theory another one might exist to dump your post data.

Which service? Mastodon has a built-in export functionality in preferences.

I can’t find such an option on Lemmy, but you should be able to do a GDPR request for your information as a last resort.

edit: Non-post data / user settings can be exported (and imported!) but posts are a separate issue. See this open issue.

Is this not what the “active” sorting does?

The lenses don’t have to both be at the same distance to be fair.

A lot of contributors of FOSS projects make small changes that aren’t copyrightable.

Indeed, it’s a neat way to visualize gravity, but that’s it. It lacks any sort of explanation of why masses appear to be pulled towards one another. (I will point to the other person in this thread saying it “explains gravity with gravity”.) This is why I think the metaphor you mentioned detracts from the original video.

I think that explains the “how” more than the “why”.

Actually this is pretty easy. First of all you got to get a stack of exactly 1 TNT and place it down where you want it to explode. Be careful not to put anything else in the slot the TNT was in because that’s now shadow-linked with the TNT you placed. You need to somehow get a redstone signal to activate in the same tick as you punch the TNT block. It’ll take a bunch of tries. Be careful not to pick up the dropped TNT item, or it’ll go into the shadowed slot. That part is pretty random. Next open up the chat and type “BOOOM!” or similar. It helps if you copied the text beforehand so you only have to paste it in. Log out of the server and never come back because you’re a bad person.

Could you please provide some sources for that? I’d like to know more.

First of all though, there is no such thing as a “hostile fork”. Being able to fork a project, for any reason, is the entire point of open source. And to be fair, not wanting to continue working for a for-profit company for free is a very good reason.

And yeah, when you suddenly turn a FOSS project that’s been developed with the help of a bunch of contributors, into a for-profit company, without making a big fuss about it beforehand and allow the contributors and community to weigh in, then yeah, that’s a hostile takeover of sorts, at least in my opinion. Developers gotta make money, but they could’ve done that by creating a new brand instead of taking over that of a previously completely FOSS project. Forgejo is preventing that exact thing from happening by joining Codeberg (a non-profit).

There’s been a hostile takeover at Gitea and it’s now run / owned by a for-profit company. The developers forked the project under the name Forgejo and are continuing the work under a non-profit. See also: Their introduction post and a page comparing the two projects. Feel free to look up more, since I haven’t familiarized myself with the incident all that much myself. Either way though, maybe consider using Forgejo instead of Gitea.

I don’t know how many years it’s been, but I also have been driving Arch for a while. I might not recommend it to absolute beginners, because you do need some patience and experience (such as how to effectively google), but honestly besides some mostly self-inflicted issues, I felt like I had it all around easier than users of other distros (and Windows, of course).

When you say “trans woman” you affirm that they are women, and trans is just an adjective. When you say “transwoman” it can imply that they are something different altogether, and TERFs have certainly used it as such. Like, I dunno, a carpark isn’t a park? That’s the first example that came to mind, anyway.

What I’m saying is that Microsoft is, in fact, being hostile by limiting OSS builds such as Codium in the ways I’ve mentioned above. I guess that’s how they try to get people to keep using their proprietary build instead.

except for visual studio code

But also:

• Telemetry everywhere
• Not permitted to use the official marketplace with OSS builds
• Not able to use certain extensions (like C# debugger) with OSS builds

Though I’ve been very happy about the direction .NET and C# have been going, especially the licensing.

1. There is the --download-sections option. Looking at it, you might want to use --download-sections "*0:00-1:00".
2. I briefly checked with --list-thumbnails and it doesn’t look like YouTube offers any square ones, so I would look into using ImageMagick to edit the image with a command. I doubt yt-dlp allows you to do any sort of image manipulation out of the box.

Not to be pedantic but I think the headline is fine.

If you simulated a fire in a building for training purposes and upon activating the fire alarm, it got broadcast to emergency services when it shouldn’t, you did accidentally broadcast the fire alarm, simulated or not.

The “accidentally” already implies it was done in error, suggesting it was not an emergency. On the other hand, if it was a real emergency, and just wasn’t meant to be publicly broadcasted, I feel like the headline would’ve looked different.
