Outbound federation seems to be broken again. (Seems to be issue of Lemmy 0.19.0) in c/sdfpubnix

lemmy.ml is also on RC, by the way.

Sure, but that is the instance specifically run by the Lemmy developers.

Linus does not fuck around in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

You said that wrong. I think that what you meant to say was:

One does not simply... break userspace.

And even being understaffed and underfunded would at least be understandable, but some of these problems have been caused by the completely unnecessary upgrade of Lemmy to a non-stable branch.

MLMYM (old.lemmy.sdf.org) not allowing posting, commenting, or any interaction in c/sdfpubnix

Yeah, I used to donate to support this instance but I just canceled that.

Is PopOs a good option if i don't want to tinker much with the OS and do some basic tasks as web browsing etc? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Yeah, this is a really nice feature; on the couple of rare occasions where an update completely borked things I was able to go from unbootable to everything back up and running in half an hour.

Scryer Prolog Meetup 2023 Notes in c/prolog
[–] bitcrafter 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hi! To be honest, I occasionally take a peek at Scryer Prolog, but it seems to have a lot of grand ambitions without showing a lot of progress towards meeting them; it's hard to see why I should care about it compared to a very mature and full-featured system like SWI prolog.

Since you say you are involved in this project, please take this opportunity to change my mind! :-)

The slow decline isn't slow anymore in c/memes@lemmy.ml

I don't know, I thought it was kind of fun that they mixed things up for a change and had the protagonist be the villain and the central plot be about his triumph over the antagonists who are the heroes; the movie ending with him relaxing and enjoying the sunset now that his great work was over and so he could retire and put down his burdens was a really nice touch.

Given their choice of logo, I am advocating for everyone to start referring to it as Twitter/X11.

It's not just about facts: Democrats and Republicans have sharply different attitudes about removing misinformation from social media in c/technology@lemmy.world

Teaching critical thinking has absolutely nothing to do with presupposing the existence of objective truth in political matters.

But there are % signs after all the numbers...

Which language you wish would really grow and reach mainstream adoption? in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] bitcrafter 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'd be interested in hearing what it is about the language that has gotten you so excited about it.

One year after being bought for $44 billion, X is worth $19 billion in c/technology@lemmy.world

Pretty soon he’ll have so much control over his platform that he can practically cron kings and manipulate outcomes to fit his personal political agenda.

Huh.... do kings normally consist of commands that need to be run on a regular basis at scheduled times?

Revived Official DCSS Forum (tavern.dcss.io)
 

In case you haven't been to /r/dcss recently, the devs have announced that they are moving forward with a revived official forum, which this Lemmy post links directly to.

Would me self-hosting a personal instance make things worse for everyone else? (self.selfhosted)
 

I have a domain name that I own but am not making use of and was thinking of setting up my own personal Lemmy instance, partly so I can have a Lemmy id and instance that I can completely control, partly so that I can contribute directly to my hosting cost, and partly because it might be fun to tinker with (or it might just end up being a pain; I'm still trying to figure out which is the case).

However, from this comment it sounds like, rather than contributing to horizontal scaling and easing the load on other servers, I might actually end up increasing the load on other servers by adding yet another server that the other servers have to talk to in order to keep my server updated on the latest comments and posts to which I am subscribed.

So given this, would self-hosting a personal instance actually make things worse for everyone else and thus be an irresponsible action at this time and/or for the foreseeable future? Because the last thing that I want to do is to inadvertently add a burden to the fediverse!
