I learned to play the guitar growing up as a young rapscallion in Mississippi. But things didn’t really take off until I moved to Memphis. There I met the Colonel and the hits just kept coming. Unfortunately, the fame went to my head, I gained a lot of weight, started wearing a white jumpsuit, and ate tranquilizers like they were trail mix. Then, in 1977, I died on the toilet.
Or did I?
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks





I used to, but I try to do better. Lately, I’ve had “blind voting” turned on in my app, so I can only see the score after I’ve voted one way or the other. Basically forces me to read and vote on the submission without being influenced by the current score.


Worked at a local pizza place my junior and senior years of high school.


Dept. of Highways be like:



Cool, thanks. I’ll give that a read and see if I can make it work cleanly. At this point, it’s just an experiment, but I’ve wanted to have some mechanism for a standardized machine-readable community rules for a long time, specifically to put into the report and moderation workflows. If I can make it work cleanly, and if it’s not something already planned for Lemmy 1.0, I’m absolutely willing to make that a Tesseract feature.

What’s the significance of this syntax with regard to it not rendering?
[//]: # (r1: Posts must be ...)
[//]: # (r3: Posts must not be ...)
[//]: # (r2: Posts must be ...)
I’ve long wanted a somewhat standardized way to define community rules so I could do exactly what you were describing in your issue, but I’m not clear on how/why that syntax doesn’t render.
I tried it in Tesseract, which admittedly use a different markdown renderer than other apps, and the first line shows but the second and third don’t.
If other apps can get on board with that, then I may need to understand what’s happening in that syntax to make sure it doesn’t render.


Lol, yeah


The Fediverse is just full of Carols (on the right/brown coat):



In a sane world, this would be a “You’ve won a free boat! Claim your prize at the police station” trap, but such is not the world we’re living in.


What do you want to practice? Just general sysadmin stuff? Networking? Clustering? Horizontal scaling? All of the above?
Old PCs are just Debian servers waiting to happen. Depending on their specs, you may be able to do VMs or you can utilize container frameworks like Podman, Docker, or LXC to deploy individual applications or application stacks. Or you can just bare metal install anything you want.
Years ago, I bought a batch of 16 Wyse thin clients on eBay for about $15/each. These had 4GB SSDs and 2 GB RAM, so I upgraded about half of them with 64-120GB SSDs (whatever I had lying around) and 8 GB RAM. Thin clients can usually be found pretty inexpensively and are pretty power efficient, but they’re not performant workhorses. They’re great for practicing networking, VLANs, system orchestration (e.g. Ansible, Cockpit) application clustering and horizontal scaling, diskless workstations, setting up a demo office server and workstations, and even VMs if you’re just practicing; they’re a little underpowered to run a lot of VMs, but you can certainly run a few small ones just to practice managing them.
My dog and I hunt them when we’re outside. They love to nest in my porch roof, so when they’re buzzing around I swat them with a broom, the dog will pin them and keep them from getting back up while I go in for the squish.
I tried setting up a carpenter bee trap, but the bitches ate right through it.


than to carry something like an evaporative cooler
Evaporative coolers don’t really work in high humidity. If you live in an area that’s a dry hot, they work great. Summers in my area, though, are very muggy. Other than ice pack based products, the only passive coolers I’ve found work in humid environments are these sweat bands that have either desiccant beads in them or that stuff that’s in diapers. They pull the sweat away keeping it out of your eyes and give a little evaporative cooling at the same time.


I’m probably as environmentally conscious as I am today because of him and Captain Planet. RIP


And I responded to that. This is a SC case, so there is no parliamentary procedure shenanigans they can pull and nothing to filibuster.


Exploit every parliamentary procedural, deny unanimous consent, ACTUALLY FILIBUSTER, etc
What would they exploit or filibuster when this is a Supreme Court ruling?


Name one thing they can do with minorities in both chambers of Congress besides send a letter. One thing that is within their constitutional power to do. One thing that the political savants on Lemmy will deem sufficient.
I’ll wait.


It just boggles my mind how people can be here 1 - 3 years or more and not bother to read the rules even once.


Remember when we “couldn’t” help Puerto Rico after Maria because Puerto Rico is an island, surrounded by big water, ocean water?
Trump on Friday said the disaster relief effort in Puerto Rico is complicated because it is “surrounded by water.” “This is an island, surrounded by water. Big water. Ocean water,” the president said during a speech in Washington on his tax plan.
