Probably even worse than that.

This has less RAM, but it's the same CPU. You can see it's consistently 3 to 4 times slower than a Raspberry Pi 4! They are not joking about this not being for general use.

A Dev board like this is pretty cool, though. It could help pave the way to a performant board later.

In shock announcement, Trump says U.S. wants to take over Gaza Strip in c/world@lemmy.world

These people can't stop shadowboxing with people who supposedly withheld their votes. It's weird. How many people who otherwise would have voted for Kamala stayed home because of their ongoing support of the genocide in Gaza? Do we even know? And if it was the decisive issue causing the Democratic defeat, what is the political lesson learned?

I can't help but feel this understandable anger is completely misdirected. Or, maybe they support what is going on in Gaza and they're annoyed that a critical part of their voting coalition felt otherwise?

It was always against the rules to do that. Nothing changed, except (from what I heard, I don't use Reddit anymore so correct me if I'm wrong) mods stopped enforcing the rule with regards to Musk, Musk put the spotlight on it, and Reddit (a shitty corporation trying desperately to be profitable) couldn't really do anything but enforce the rule.

It is true that Huffman is an asshole and probably likes the guy, but if it was some other public figure I don't think the outcome would be different.

I guess it could allow multiple funding models. Instance A is ad supported, instance B is a paid service. Not exciting for us self hosters, but there is possibility there.

Let's hope these proposals (and the tariffs) aren't a sham that will be retracted. Otherwise, US hegemony will be over by 2026.

Oops. Turns out they were a sham and have been retracted.

Ghost has been working on adding activitypub support. They just added the ability to "unfollow" in their work in progress implementation, for example.

These were always a terrible value. Just emulate them.

Are there any better mechanical keyboards that don't break the bank? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] bilb@lem.monster 2 points 2 days ago

I have this one and of is surprisingly good for the money. I also have a keychron recommended by many others, and can also vouch for that.

Remote Moderator actions still do not seem to work after upgrading to 0.18.5 (lem.monster)
 

I was made moderator of the /c/TrueAnon on the lemmy.ml instance a while ago, and none of my actions have ever federated to lemmy.ml, so I gave up. Thought I'd try again after this upgrade and still no dice. The response I'm getting back from the API when I try to add my lemmy.ml account to moderator status is "not_a_moderator." Is this a transient federation issue or are there more fixes required for this scenario to work correctly?

The sole moderator hasn't been active for 2 years. I just want to remove/update the sticky post for the most part. And no disrespect for @SmellyFingers62@lemmy.ml, if they come back I'm happy to add them as a moderator once again.
