Jesus fuck thank you, it’s so hard seeing a bunch of doomer shit in threads like this

You’re thinking of BD-R: BD-RE can be rewritten/erased hundreds of times

As a Bay area native, I’ve never encountered worse drivers than the entire state of Maryland.

An API token is more secure than a password by virtue of it not needing to be typed in by a human. Phishing, writing down passwords, and the fact that API tokens can have restricted scopes all make them more secure.

Expiration on its own doesn’t make it more secure, but it can if it’s in the context of loading the token onto a system that you might lose track of/not have access to in the future.

Individual API tokens can also be revoked without revoking all of them, unlike a password where changing it means you have to re-login everywhere.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Lmk if you have questions, though.

Hey, I maintain a highly popular (if niche) FOSS library. Where the fuck is my big tech paycheck where they bribe me into integrating with their product?

/s Silly take IMO, relies on cherry-picking popular FOSS projects where you can see “the influence” of big tech, AND then No True Scotsman your way into saying that they’re not allowed to participate in the development/influence of FOSS because… checks notes they’re the ones funding the project/putting money in front of otherwise unpaid volunteers?

If you end up coming up with a better scheme for things that has the actual practical effect of compensating devs appropriately (yes, that means at current market rates or better) for their work, then please let us know so we can switch to doing that immediately. I will literally do anything you suggest if it would achieve that end.

So others have already talked about how great Star Trek is. I agree with them, but I think that literally everyone has missed the point of your question:

It’s its own lemmy instance. It was spawned from the migration away from reddit, and it’s stayed alive since. So combine an active former-reddit community with lemmy and a good reason to all rally around, and finally the final ingredient of federation, and the Star Trek related rooms will always be on every server, and they’ll always be populated.

Speaking for myself, I greatly appreciate the fact that it was moved to Github because 99% of all open source projects I’ve ever wanted to contribute to in the past have all been on Github. Kbin (and alexapy, on gitlab) have been the only exceptions.

And that’s not even mentioning my work also uses Github for our internal repos.

Speaking purely selfishly, it’s simply more convenient to be able to manage and track my time and contributions all in a single place, and I can’t imagine I’m alone. I’m looking forward to seeing Codeberg’s long-term goals of federation see fruit, but for right now it was simply an obnoxious extra hurdle.

Ernest has some big life stuff going on right now (you can check out his posts if you really need to know), and hasn’t been able to review/merge in PRs for kbin lately. Furthermore, kbin.social doesn’t even have the latest changes that are merged in, so the community fork mbin was made by @melroy, one of the most prolific contributors to kbin.

I feel the other commenters here are missing the mark. This isn’t about fixing them, or learning to “accept them as they are”: bigots should never be tolerated.

Which is to say, your reasons for being “bigoted” towards the bigots isn’t a matter of prejudice: you’ve extrapolated a pattern.

But you don’t want to apply this pattern unfairly to people you haven’t met, because that’d make you bigoted as well.

Well, I have good news for you: you aren’t at any risk for that. Real bigots don’t think they’re bigots. People with prejudices don’t consider their judgement unsound. They think they’re the most unbiased, reasonable people in the world, and often try to push their opinions on others with violence, whether it’s verbal, social, or physical.

By simply acknowledging internally that you have thoughts that you consider unideal, and unfair, you’ve done a thousand times more self-reflecting, and have more capacity for self-correcting, than someone like my parents would.

Don’t try to beat the bad thoughts out of yourself. Acknowledge them, and pledge to act better than they’d have you.

Everything post 9/11 is modern to some people…

M8, this ain’t Stack Overflow…

It’s apparently a great way to become single, soon.

@kevincox does anyone other than me even still have motherboard speakers?

@Coldus12 I got wireguard hosted on my openwrt router. Straightforward and no fuss.

@sneezy Yeah this is entirely reliant on the idea that you’re only streaming from torrents that have enough seeders that you won’t kill the network.

Classic tragedy of the commons, and definitely a shitty thing to do.

@boo_ Definitely fascinating to me: I’ve been using EndeavorOS with BTRFS and steam and haven’t had any problems beyond issues that related to my games that were on my Windows NTFS disk. Glad you got yourself sorted though!

@chandz05 I’d totally add in Organizr to create a single page solution to access all of your various services. Beats bookmarks any day of the week
