Off topic, by why in god do people refer to the democrats as the DNC as if it's the acronym for the democratic party?

It's a bit like someone calling every piece in chess a "pawn". It's not right technically, and it sounds dumb.

Not saying it's your "fault" but not voting means you're ok with the republicans being in power. That's all I'm saying.

If you don't vote, you are part of the problem.

It's literally crazy to say something like this on Lemmy of all places.

Don't like moderators? Fine, try to host your own instance and your own communities. You'll find quickly that it turns to shit because it's actually pretty hard to do well.

I just meant that it last a lot longer than the few months it was a real problem. Like, I feel like we all talked about it for years and it affected their business.

I somehow expect that won't happen here considering how popular McD is worldwide, that's all I mean.

I mean, I think a lot of us aren't pissed off about it but think it looks stupid as fuck. And like, that's just my opinion man.

The Elon Musk method: Buy some shit for no reason with only the attempt to ruin it because, idk, oligarchy or some shit.

sigh You're right.

Having said that, if they happen to fix Warcraft 3 Reforged, they might get on my good books. I'm not that hopeful for it, but I want a version of the game from 20 years ago that isn't busted and can be played online again lol.

This is a double-whammy PR nightmare.

Are we going to do what happened with Jack in the Box in the naughts and start associating E Coli with McDonalds? I remember hearing that FUD so much back then and now that the shoe is on the other foot, I wonder what will happen. 🤔 Not to engage in the fast food wars or anything, but also fuck McDonalds for helping this fat ass at all.

Calling the Scarlett Johansson lawsuit "Manufactured Drama" is certainly a take. A bad one, that is.

Just like the lifting of a famous actress voice, one has to wonder how much LLMs are siphoning the intellectual property of the little-people of the open source world and willfully tossing the license and attribution clauses down the toilet. If they were willing to do it to a multi-million dollar actress, what makes people think that the intellectual property theft doesn't go much further?

Anyway, I think for this reason it's actually really important to note that Junior Devs are much less likely to cause this type of issue for large companies. The question is whether the lawsuits from improper licensing cost more to settle than it costs to hire Junior devs, which brings us roughly to where the international outsourcing phenomenon brought us. At least, IMO.

 

Wasn't sure whether this is/isn't against the rules of discussion threads. I noticed this review in my RSS feeds and saw it was surprisingly positive, so I figured I'd share. Also, RIP Toriyama.

In general, are reviews by publications OK to share? Or should we share them in discussion threads?

It's a new show directed by Shinichiro Watanabe, known for directing Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo.

Would love for you to describe exactly how it’s more complicated.

"More" is relative, ofc, so YMMV on whether you agree with me or not on this.

But the problem with pass key is that it has all of the downsides of 2FA still -- you need to use a mobile device such as a cell phone, that cell phone must be connected to the internet and you often can't register a single account to multiple devices (as in, there's only ever 1 device that has passkey authorization.)

This isn't an issue with ssh keys, which is a superior design despite it not being native to the web browsing experience. SSH keys can be added or removed to an account for any number of devices as long as you have some kind of login access. You can generally use SSH keys on any device regardless of network connection. There's no security flaws to SSH keys because the public key is all that is held by 3rd parties, and it's up to the user in question to ensure they keep good control over their keys.

Keys can be assigned to a password and don't require you to use biometrics as the only authentication system.

I feel like there's probably more here, but all of this adds up to a more complicated experience IMO. But again, it's all relative. If you only ever use password + 2fa, I will give them that it's simpler than this (even though, from the backend side of things, it's MUCH more complicated from what I hear.)

 

How will this change US/NA distribution of films? Will it affect licensing of content in the future?

 

I often see people mention the Portainer project and how it's useful, but I never hear any reason to use it other than as a more user friendly front end to service management.

So is there any particular feature or reason to use portainer over docker's CLI? Or is it simply a method of convenience?

This isn't only strictly for self hosting, but I figure people here would know better.

Hi there self-hosted community.

I hope it's not out of line to cross post this type of question, but I thought that people here might also have some unique advice on this topic. I'm not sure if cross posting immediately after the first post is against lemmy-ediquet or not.

I was curious if anyone has any advice on the following:

I have a home server that is always accessed by my main computer for various reasons. I would love to make it so that my locally hosted Gitea could run actions to build local forks of certain applications, and then, on success, trigger Flatpak to build my local fork(s) of certain programs once a month and host those applications (for local use only) on my home server for other computers on my home network to install. I'm thinking mostly like development branches of certain applications, experimental applications, and miscellaneous GUI applications that I've made but infrequently update and want a runnable instance available in case I redo it.

Anybody have any advice or ideas on how to achieve this? Is there a way to make a flatpak repository via a docker image that tries to build certain flatpak repositories on request via a local network? Additionally, if that isn't a known thing, does anyone have any experience hosting flatpak repositories on a local-network server? Or is there a good reason to not do this?
