Also @shrugal@lemmy.world.
Completely disagree!
Afaik most of them hate being treated differently like that, and others tiptoeing around them in fear of saying the wrong thing. If I know someone is sensitive about it or tells me that they don’t like a certain phrase then sure. But imo a good general rule is to treat them like the regular people they are, not delicate flowers not to be disturbed.
Can’t hide my gaming history 😅
Afaik it’s pretty common to call twinks “halfs”, conjoined or not. I’m a twin, and I’ve been asked about “my other half” my whole life. Same thing with couples, or any two people who are perceived as belonging together for some reason.
I’d say nobody. Not putting innocent people in jail is more important than punishing criminals imo. But idk what to do with the guilty half instead.
I just set up a Vouch-Proxy for this yesterday. It uses the nginx auth_request directive to authenticate users with an SSO server, and then stores the token in a domain-wide cookie, so you’re logged in across all subdomains. Works pretty well so far, you don’t even notice it when you’re logged in to your SSO provider.
But you do have to tell the proxy where you want to redirect a request somehow, either by subdomain (illegal.yourdomain.com) or port (yourdomain.com:8787) or path (yourdomain.com/illegal). I’m not sure if it works with raw IPs as hosts, but you can add additional restrictions like only allowing local client IPs.
In my special case I’m using the local Synology SSO server, and I have to spin up an additional nginx server because the built-in one doesn’t support auth_request.
It’s not. They tricked some MEV-Boost bots into doing bad trades.
Here is a more detailed explanation of the exploit.
The Pepaire-Bueno brothers exploited a bug in MEV-boost’s code that allowed them to preview the content of blocks before they were officially delivered to validators, according to the indictment.
The brothers created 16 Ethereum validators and targeted three specific traders who operated MEV bots, the indictment said. They used bait transactions to figure out how those bots traded, lured the bots to one of their validators which was validating a new block and basically tricked these bots into proposing certain transactions. […]
So hardly an attack on any core system of cryptocurrencies.
I hope at that point we have enough capable alternatives. Like, hopefully around the time they add ads is also the time when open-source models and apps have caught up again.
It’s a group therapy called !linux@lemmy.ml
This is pretty impressive and hella creepy!
Yea, it’s pretty easy if you already have a server. All you need to do is run a docker container, and change the identity.sync.tokenserver.uri
setting in about:config
. On mobile you have to enable the debug mode by going to “Settings > About Firefox” and tapping the Firefox logo a few times, then go to the new “Sync Debug” settings entry.
The container above only runs the sync-server though, you still have to log into a Mozilla account to use it. There is a replacement that includes the whole stack, but I haven’t tried that one yet.
Yep. It’s e2e encrypted, and you can even self-host the sync server, if you don’t want to rely on an external service. Pretty much a no-brainer.
If you’re curious, here are the numbers added up for all Lemmy instances with 10+ users:
blocked/fedipact
federated
I’ve been running Gluetun for a few months now, and just the other day discovered that you can use it to seamlessly proxy Twitch streams (using it as http proxy for ttv lol pro), so they load via countries that Twitch doesn’t show ads for. Setting it up was ridiculously easy, and now I have neither ads nor endless loading anymore. The whole thing was a really nice surprise!
Yes. It makes it much harder to build a profile about you though, because you’re not logged in and they don’t know if those views come from you or someone else using your server. Even if you’re the only one, the website doesn’t know that.
I think the ban was a little too harsh, but removing that comment was the right decision.
I also see a few problems with your “your highness” comparison:
“Your highness” is an official title, not a personal designation. Its proper usage depends heavily on the context, e.g. the perceived social rank and status, how well people know each other, if it’s a formal or informal conversation, and so on. Pronouns have none of that, you just use the one people identify as and that’s it.
It implies that people just pick whatever term they can come up with to mess with others or to mock them. People don’t choose a pronoun lightly, they usually think about it a lot and it’s an important personal decision. They also usually pick one of the common pronouns, so it’s really not hard to just use it.
Making quick logical comparisons regarding social norms is a very tricky thing in my experience. There are many things going on that we aren’t fully aware of all of the time, and getting it wrong can hurt people badly.
Downvote it to oblivion then, but disagreeing or not being interested is no reason to remove a post.
Edit: Saw the post. I think the removal was valid, but the ban was a little harsh. And not being interested had nothing to do with it.
There’s almost no difference to a good Matrix client if you already selfhost the server and bridges. Most of the Beeper client’s value is making it very easy to manage the bridges they host for you.
I’m transcoding everything to 320kbps MP3s. It’s much much smaller than flac, and I can’t hear the difference even if I try.
