It’s a trap and not worth it. I’m currently 72TB deep and the rabbit hole does not stop. You buy one drive and the next thing you know you’re trying to convince your wife to keep a server rack in the living room. One 4TB drive is a slippery slope my friend. Send help.

Thank God I’m not the only one, I have not been able to access archive.is in a long time. I get stuck in a loop on their captcha. Disabled AdGuard, disabled Ublock, nothing.

I think the man is asking for a DBAN 7 pass

Pretty common in tech layoffs altogether. Been through several waves over the years and typically the CEO goes “we don’t need this team, what do they do anyways?” before firing them and finding out exactly what that team did. I’ve always told coworkers to tell them hell no.

It’s the best way to think about it because if you’re always doing the calculation in your head you still always think in Fahrenheit first. Just get the feeling for Celcius instead of trying to shoehorn a worse system in (as a user of said worse system myself).

It’s admittedly not a very difficult project, it was done pretty quick for an April Fools event in 2017. Honestly it could be a good coding challenge because the basics themselves are easy, it’s just how you build it at scale. So you just need someone to make a new Lemmy community, a new website, and have a lot of people get hyped about it so that it becomes the ‘one’ for Lemmy. Ludwig hired one dude to write a clone for his stream, so there just has to be someone who has the time, energy, and care to make one for this community.

On Google Images in your search you can click “Tools”, “Color”, then select “Transparent” to automatically filter these 😉

I think more than anything, this has shown the insecurity of ActivityPub for me. The whole point of federation is to get everyone on a decentralized platform that is aimed at ‘copying’ data. But there’s no reason that data needs to be unencrypted in plaintext. We should theoretically be very open to wanting to federate with a large new community, but the issue lies with ActivityPub. Because we can’t trust ActivityPub, we can’t trust Meta. So are we implying that we imperially trust the services we currently use? I think this should be opening a conversation about ActivityPub security, not ‘how quickly can we defederate from Meta to avoid the security issues’, we should be looking at options for resolving those security issues. End to end encryption is in absolute must. We should want to add and federate more users into the ecosystem without fear of where they’re data is coming from and where our is going to. So I’m not ‘for’ federation of Threads, I’m against defederation for ‘security purposes’ when everything is already so insecure. Fix the root problem, not these work around solutions.
