Fair enough - I got it working recently but it was the hardest self-hosting install I’ve done. No way most people would succeed. Email is 50(?) years of questionable design decisions piled on top of each other so it’s become a whole world of weird stuff. Doing email should be it’s own tech specialty, like ‘devops’ or ‘db admin’ is. There’s enough depth to it.

There are a ton of email providers who are not Google, though. e.g. https://proton.me/mail. You don’t need to run it on your own hardware.

Recently AI was weaponized against the fediverse when someone intentionally published a big AI generated security report about a popular fedi platform. Not a PR that might be useful, just a huge pile of allegations. The author is a professional developer so they knew what they were doing and how much urgent work that would create.

Bit of a dick move.

Then they had the gall to opine at length about what AI means for open source and how foss projects will need to change their ways.

Such a douche.

Guess how many sharks Australians kill each year.

AI can’t even run an office vending machine so I can’t see it running a company.

!minecraft@lemmy.world is the only non-dead one.

The study was done in Feb 2025 and they probably wrote the research proposal months before then, waited for approval / funding, etc. I don’t know the process of how academia works but I imagine it to be very slow and bureaucratic.

The numbers are the bottom of this graph are the hour, in UTC. So 3 = 3 AM.

Looks like the quietest time is about half as active as the peak.

So good to finally have a label for what went wrong with Drupal!

Stranded major

It’s funny how they’re concerned about the optics of the size of the audience members when the optics of holding a UFC event on the whitehouse lawn at all are already absolutely terrible.

Haha that’s awesome

The homeless people living in RVs are the responsible and organized ones who saw a bad situation coming and invested in a solution that would keep them from living in a tent.

If that solution is taken off the table it’ll just lead to more people living in tents and all the problems that come from that.

If I were blind I’d prefer it if the app just hid all image posts from me. The alt text, when it exists, is going to be trash most of the time anyway.

This is getting complicated.

The only large mainstream competitor, which would probably benefit from github’s troubles: “We saw github breaking itself regularly because of it’s own slop coding AND flooded with trash vibe coded projects and thought - that’s where we wanna be!”

Maybe they’ve blocked you.

“Impressions” is the amount of time a piece of content was viewed. This is a key metric in advertising-based situations because you want to know the ratio of clicks on the thing vs how many impressions it has to judge how effective a bait it is.

If they want to click 3000 buttons, yes. These buttons are not new functionality, it’s been like that since the beginning.

Easier just to empty the relevant database table! It’s called ‘domain’ if anyone in the future finds this.
