Self-hosting isn’t only just about owning the metal, but it’s also the freedom to configure things the way you want, and to be sovereign of your data.

I paid Plex Pass Lifetime for peanuts (maybe $50 or $75) a decade ago, not using it would mean wasting that so yeah…

Never heard “half bath”, and I always called those washrooms.

Congrats on the successful upgrade 🎉

Hopefully this will improve the sync/federation process between LW and other instances, especially those further away geographically :)

The grocery store I often go to had these barcode scanners you could borrow at the entrance and scan your stuff as you go, along with scales on which you could print a barcode sticker for the stuff you pay by weight.

Once you were done, you’d scan a QR card at the self-service checkout to upload all the stuff you scanned, then pay.

It was awesome, you could just pack as you go. Unfortunately they scrapped the project once they found out that the amount of theft was significantly higher with this system. So yeah, we can’t have nice things 😒

update private_message set deleted = true from person where person.id = private_message.creator_id and person.actor_id in ('https://lemmy.cafe/u/nicole');

EDIT: lmao cope harder, spammer. Makes it easier to find your alts.

Can you extract your cookie and pass it to yt-dlp?

Personally I stick to relatively legal IPTV playlists, such as https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv

Straight and to the point, no bullshit.

The only place where I struggle is finding the perfect player. On PC I use iptvnator and on Android I use IPTV Pro. They work well enough, but I wish I had a universal app that could carry the configuration between devices.

I mean if you specify GMT, one could assume that you need to apply DST during summer, while UTC is garanteed to be static.

To be fair, there’s a slight difference between GMT and UTC: GMT becomes BST (in the UK) during summer, while UTC doesn’t follow Daylight Saving Time and is tied specifically to the atomic clock.

There’s CryptPad that has a form feature which you could use for surveys.

Stored in blue barrels.

The greatest deception of all: make them think it was their idea all along.

If you don’t enjoy it, leave? Nobody forces you to be here, and there are other social platforms.

Same, even my young kids if I ask them a yes/no question while they’re eating to avoid talking with their mouth full.

There’s also Tuta if you’re looking for an alternative.

Mirror? I think the listing has been removed…

We’re going to allow some “flat earth” comments. We’re going to force some moderators to accept some “flat earth” comments.

In general I would agree, but if the community moderators decides to set some ground truths (aka an echo chamber), I don’t think the admins should be involved.

Allowing these posts and comment despite these agreed upon ground truths (ex: the earth is round, vaccine works, eating animals is unethical, etc) is only going to generate noise by having to refute these again and again instead of fostering productive discussions.

I say let the communities handle their own affairs, and the admins should only intervene in severe cases.

Syncthing is also a nice alternative.
