I wish something like .config would be a thing for storing configuration files in repositories. Instead we have a .vscode, .github, .gitlab, .idea, .vs, etc

The linked message is from 2019, i.e. per-M1 Apple laptops and at a time when arm in datacenter was just starting out.

Tbh, I feel like it’s kinda pointless to discuss a comment made by someone over 4-years ago. Both the environment and the person itself can change a lot in that time.

Convenience for end-users and avoiding link rot is probably one of the reasons.

“X post” kinda also refers to “crosspost”. I’d suggest to instead use “Twitter/X post”. Otherwise, keep up the great work <3

I just really dislike the whole left/right tribalism. Politics is a lot more complex than left/right and just marking someone as either just increases polarisation…

yeah, tunneling into your local network and then calling WoL from there is the way to go.

ngl, I’m annoyed whenever someone creates an application but doesn’t want to publish their code cause it looks bad. Like no one cares that your code is bad and by publishing it, you can get others to help you improve it.

This. And even then there should be procedures in place to essentially make it impossible to send the wrong inputs.

It’s like when an intern accidentally drops the production database. It’s not the interns fault for sending the wrong command. It’s the managements fault for not restricting access in the first place.

Not selfhosted but I think Pocket also falls into that category of service.

Also, you can just download an older version of the toolchain and use that to compile the project. If the project is properly setup it’ll tell you the toolchain version it used. If not you can probably guess by the time of the last commit ^^

This. I hate the whole left/right tribalism.

Like I know that it can be used to get a rough idea of what political motivations someone might have and I know that where my own ideologies would mostly fall in that inaccurate one-dimensional linear spectrum but ultimately it is too inaccurate to use it to classify everyone’s political motivation.

Worse it creates a whole us-vs-them divide. “Oh you aren’t right, when then you must be a commie”. “Oh you aren’t left, then you must be a fascist”. So you might consider yourself in a different position on a political spectrum and just see the differences to someone on the other end of a political spectrum even though you might have more in common then you think. Heck, if you are on complete opposite ends you might even have more in common then you think.

Ultimately, the focus should be less on left/right and more on individual policies. Like should healthcare be public or privatized, should be build another road or another train track here, etc

Why does political debate always have to turn into this tribalistic mud fight instead of proper discussion on how to best address the needs of citizens?

Honestly just switch to a manufacturer that provides security updates for longer periods of time. My iPhone 5S, released nearly 10 years ago and is still getting them. Fairphone is another great example.

Both OSes do pre-caching and for both the standard tools to check usage nowadays ignore pre-cached elements when counting RAM usage.

Definitely my iFixit Pro Tech Toolkit. Cost like 70€ but I’ve repaired dozens of devices with it which otherwise would’ve gone to waste. Based on that it easily saved me more money than it cost :D

However, I don’t fully understand this part:

there should be an easy way to also access that information in the front end to indicate to the user that what they up/down vote is in fact not private.

But it’s true that my brain today doesn’t really want to work. You mean by some kind of API call can reveal these information?

Basically what I meant is some way for the user to see who up/down voted what. Maybe hovering the up/down vote button shows a field you can click on that say votes or something and that then redirects you to a different page that shows who upvoted and downvoted that specific post/comment. The exact details don’t really matter. My point was basically that if something is accessible but only via hidden means that are not obvious to the end-user, they may wrongly assume that information is private. So by making it easily accessible to end-user, you also clearly indicate that that information is publicly accessible ^^

Why would you want to show all information stored on the frontend?

I’m gonna start out by saying that I don’t know how lemmy’s federation code works. So if I host another instance and federate do I only see the upvote count or also who upvoted? Cause if the only person that can see the count is the admin of the instance the user belongs to, then there’s no need to show it in the frontend. If however all you need to do to see upvote count of all lemmy users, is to host your own lemmy instance, then there should be an easy way to also access that information in the front end to indicate to the user that what they up/down vote is in fact not private.

So for me whether up/down voting is private is less of an issue as long as it’s clearly communicated. Again if only the instance admin the user is part of can see the count, then that’s essentially “private” as you are trusting that entity already ^^

It’s been a while since I last checked Vaultwarden (back then it was still called bitwarden-rs). If they added an export feature, then that definitely makes things easier. The export feature in the client isn’t enough IMO. Last time I tried it, it didn’t export attachments. So if you for example have your SSH key saved in Bitwarden, well then good luck if you loose access to the vault :P

While Vaultwarden is great I would not suggest selfhosting your password manager unless you do regular backups. Losing all your password cause your server went down is a great way to ruin your day.

Nextcloud-snap is surprisingly easy to setup. snap install nextcloud is all you need to have a functioning setup. Then run a second command to setup HTTPS and you’re good to go :D

I partially get the reason for hiding NSFW content behind a sign up but at the same because it’s not stated anywhere, for a newcomer it looks like the instance may just be without content.
