Huh. All that work, just for little ol’ me? Gosh, I’m humbled. I didn’t even know that was going on.
I do try to limit thorn to my piefed account. Sometimes habit tricks me to using it on Midwest.Social, but that’s entirely accidental.
Yeah. SimpleX has a similar problem, because it’s basically creating a bunch of 1:1 connections between everyone to preserve anonymity - IIRC (I freely admit I could be misremembering this). As I understood, it’s a decent limit, though - more than the 7-12 friend/family group you’d reasonably trust in a chat group.
I did not consider this a blocker - who’s using encrypted chat for large groups? Large group chats are fundamentally insecure; is the use case about anonymity, not encryption?
This was many years ago, but since I was learning on the fly and asking Germans for translations of English words and was trying to learn words, I’d gotten in the habit of simplifying my requests. So instead of asking how to say “all of” I asked for “whole”. I also may have phrased it differently where “whole” made more sense - this was 20+ years ago, and I don’t remember exactly what was said.
I would still like to understand why Jami is never mentioned in these posts. I’m not aware of any technical or security objections, and the less I hear about Jami, the more concerned I become about using it.
I was living in Germany and was learning Germman on the fly and was with my sister and her girl friends at Octoberfest, and I wanted to ask one what she did with her whole time, so I asked what the word for “whole” was. I ended up asking her what she “did with her hole time.”

What almost impresses me most is the architecture of the Parthenon in Athens. Nothing in it is perpendicular. There’s a rise in the middle of the floor of about 6.5cm over a span of 30 meters that makes the floor bowed and prevents it from looking like it’s sagging in the middle. All of the columns are just slightly tilted inwards. They’re not straight-sided, either, they’re bowed. The whole danged thing is an optical illusion to make it appear perpendicular, because it’s so big that if they didn’t, it wouldn’t.

I can think if plenty of situations where system time is
In fact, if you don’t set up your containers right, the system time is almost always wrong.
Amazon has a non-existent customer support, so you may have limited options.
If they had customer support, I’d suggest contacting them and tell them to either refund, or else you’d give them the ID immediately followed by a GDPR request to purge your data. That might have gotten some movement, because those GDPR requests have the force of law, and are also a fair PITA for Amazon. However, there’s no way to give them a shot across the bow. I think your options are:
The happy news is that you are protected by GDPR. Many of us are not, and don’t even have the option to demand they purge the information.
If that’s the only error mechanism, sure. Exceptions in most languages tend to be relatively expensive, though, and most have a cheaper idiomatic way of returning error codes; you’d want to use those if they’re available, right?
Does Rust use exceptions a lot? I don’t know. V has panic and catch, but you almost never see them. Idiomatic is Option (?) and Return (!) values, which I thought V borrowed from Rust. Go does the (val, error) tuple-ish return thing, and while it too has catchable panics, they’re discouraged in favor of (error) return values.
Depends on the language. “Higher level” is a pretty broad field!
At first it wasn’t an issue: I used Voyager for this account, and Interstellar for the alt. Then I decided I liked Interstellar’s interface more and started using it for both. Both list the account in most places, but Interstellar doesn’t show it when replying.
I started making enough mistakes that I played with the settings and discovered Interstellar links the color theme to the account, and now I can easily tell which I’m using.
I’m certain I’ll continue to make mistakes. Thorn is surprisingly seductive, but the real issue is that auto complete and autocorrect on my phone keyboard has decided that the correct spelling for “the” is “þe”. I could correct it, but I feel bad for it; it’s just trying to he helpful.
Gosh darn it, am I using thorns in this account again?? I didn’t mean to.
I recently learned that only Icelandic does that. Eth was dropped early in old English, and thorn was used in both places. Additionally (as I understand it, now), while thorn was a direct “th” (voiced or unvoiced) sound, even when eth was in use it want orthographically a simple replacement for voiced “th”.
I guess Icelandic kept it, but eth was not in use through most of the old English, medieval period. And then the Normans came, and fucked written English completely up.
OnlyOffice is a Russian company. Some people might care about the latter part.
The connection between OnlyOffice and Russia has caused some controversy. The company has moved headquarters and attempted to hide its Russian ties through shell companies. The company develops its product in Russia and presents itself in the Russian market as a Russian company. For this reason some Ukrainian businesses have moved away from OnlyOffice.
Wikipedia has more info (with references) for the curious.
Second this.
It’s still the best E2E messaging system I’ve found; the only one my mom, wife, and sisters-in-law reliably use.
I just want them to focus on fixing the sketchy DHT that seems to cause every problem.
That’s a lot of bloom for a little guy!
You’ll be absolutely thrilled to hear that I discovered that I can assign different color themes to different accounts in my mobile app, so these sorts of crossover mistakes should be greatly reduced.
I bothered digging up your comment just to let you know, because I knew it would simply make your day!
Toodles!
My recommendation is to put all of the variables in an environment file, and use systemd’s EnvironmentFile (in [] to point to it.
One of my backup service files (I back up to disks and cloud) looks like this:
[Unit]
Description=Backup to MyUsbDrive
Requires=media-MyUsbDrive.mount
After=media-MyUsbDrive.mount
[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/etc/backup/environment
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/restic backup --tag=prefailure-2 --files-from ${FILES} --exclude-file ${EXCLUDES} --one-file-system
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.timer
FILES is a file containing files and directories to be backed up, and is defined in the environment file; so is EXCLUDES, but you could simply point restic at the directory you want to back up instead.
My environment file looks essentially like
RESTIC_REPOSITORY=/mnt/MyUsbDrive/backup
RESTIC_PASSWORD=blahblahblah
KEEP_DAILY=7
KEEP_MONTHLY=3
KEEP_YEARLY=2
EXCLUDES=/etc/backup/excludes
FILES=/etc/backup/files
If you’re having trouble, start by looking at how you’re passing in the password, and whether it’s quoted properly. It’s been a couple of years since I had this issue, but at one point I know I had spaces in a passphrase and had quoted the variable, and the quotes were getting passed in verbatim.
My VPS backups are more complex and get their passwords from a keystore, but for my desktop I keep it simple.
I started using the same client for both by “normal” account (this one) and my toy account (my pþþþt one) but have discovered that now it’s impossible hard to tell which one I’m in once I start replying. And I flip between them often, so now I’m accidentally posting eths and thorns here, and forgetting them more in the other account.
It’s a conundrum. I’m losing sleep over it, really.
I hope this isn’t a step towards replacing the native app with an SPA.
If it was me (@piefed.zip), I didn’t change anything. I used the same character always had - it was the Icelandic thorn, provided by my mobile keyboard. I wasn’t even aware of the replacement feature until those release notes.
I’m curious about why it was appearing that way. Granted, I used Piefed with three different devices around this time: a desktop, where thorn was an X compose character; Android, where it was from the Icelandic character set; and a Linux phone where I modified the keyboard and added thorn from the Unicode character on the Thorn Wikipedia page. I suppose one or more of those could have been from different code point blocks.
I’ve switched over almost entirely to Piefed by now, but piefed.zip being offline at the moment has me back on my non-Thorn Lemmy account.
