Im on the fedi doin fedi things.
This style of posting lends itself to having “hot takes” get upvoted and actual discussions have middling success.
At least with us, you can chose the tech and put it up yourself. Like right now you are using slrpnk.net and im using piefed.social on a lemmy.world server. Without any issues. We (the collective WE) made this happen without huge billionaires having a strangle hold on the way we interact. Its not perfect, but its better than a LOT of the alternatives.
Fantastic series, thanks for introducing me!
The screenshot really should have a cat photo on it.
Looks great! GL!
Cant know until we try!
I wish meshtastic did any of that. Its more like a worse pager. Fun hobby to get into but its not all that great at reliable packets.
I have some friends that are thinking of investing into some HiLow systems and making our own intranet. Or a meshnet. Seems like a fun project.
And no random bot scans, no agencies, no nothing but our own sites.
Windows has better accessability features than linux does. Itsn ot talked about much but ive been in meetings with people with disabilities, survivors of accidents, etc… and Windows is the only real option. If you are blind there are standard programs that they use.
Its the one area i think linux could use real work. A couple of places ive put in pull requests to help out from time to time.
Otherwise linux is generally better ;)
Its automatic in piefed and peertube. Its part of the cross post feature.
Yep the thing is to learn at least one, then its VERY easy to jump into another (usually). The simple things such as loops, functions, classes, etc…etc… are all about the same nowadays. Its more about what you are trying to do rather than the language you find yourself using.
If I had to do it again, I would try out either python (for a on computer solution), javascript for web stuff, or C/C++ if you want to go crazy and learn low level stuff. Go/Rust is fine too. Any language is ok really. Just try it out and see what you like!
My entire career is mostly 90% SQL and CRUD. To each their own!
I wonder if someone is trying out an AI or something and seeing the results. Then deleting. More evidence will pop up eventually.
It sticks around in other software just FYI. Maybe lemmy should have something that admins can do? Maybe something super admins can re-instate if a mod states should be un-deleted? I dunno.
I was in the medical insurance industry for a number of years. Its such a cold calculation. glad I am out. Also glad im in an area where all this is covered if God forbid I get it.
If one finds themselves in that situation: you can get life insurance and cash out if you get Cancer. “accelerated death benefit”
Its over 100F this week. Woo.
Ha! You have been to the central valley thats for sure.
Bakersfield is special sort of place.
We have west nile and many others. Its very bad. Theres a metric ton of them bugs here.
Source: i live here.
This reminds me of bitcoin so much. At first there was a rush for cpu then gpu then specific miners. Then specialty hardware. We are here now. So silly.
Ive seen this many MANY times. But I think people forget that most open source are passion projects.
You are owed nothing at all when someone publishes their code on the internet. Thats what it is, its just an instruction manual to do a thing. Unless you pay something for the privilege of support, complaints will do next to nothing. Even now on lemmy/piefed/fedi.
Same, i enjoy it here!
