In like exactly the same place I fucked my hand all way up with an arborist saw. Since the saw thing happened like a month ago, it hasn't stopped hurting. Now, I seem to have pulled some Fred Flinstone personality-switching bullshit with the billhook because it doesn't hurt anymore.

I just think it's important to remember that, while federation and interoperability are HUGE HUGE features (and, ultimately, the purpose) of Lemmy but I do believe that it's important to remember that there is still incredible value in a Lemmy instance that is siloed to a particular group of people and/or whitelist federated with specific other servers.

There is power in being able to create a private community with this functionality and use-cases for organizations, private groups, and whoever else to have siloed instances like this.

You could have a Lemmy server on-prem at work just for relevant work things with coworkers. You could make one for your neighborhood. You could make servers dedicated to mutual aid that federate with only eachother to further your cause and reach.

This is probably what the internet was supposed to be.

This is pretty fucking banana sandwich. Very impressive and may even help you understand compsci a bit better.

Here's an AI generated summary of the video:

In the video "I Made a 32-bit Computer Inside Terraria," the creator shares their remarkable accomplishment of constructing a fully functional 32-bit computer simulation within the popular game Terraria. They utilized the game's wiring mechanics to create complex circuits and successfully developed a computer capable of executing instructions and storing data. The video mentions future plans to create a simplified version of Terraria within the game as the next milestone. The project is open-source and can be found on GitHub for further exploration.

It honestly feels good. I have been mentally divorced from reddit since they doubled down on their API fuckery. I enjoyed my time there but, at this point, I don't have the energy to move anywhere but forward. I'm glad to have stripped Reddit of my content.

Here's to starting another life. I hope we can make it a good one.

It appears to work well. And from my lychee instance, to boot! Nice

We got our copy today and my kids LOVE it and I figured it was worth sharing

lemmy.world is a victim of an XSS attack right now and the hacker simply injected a JavaScript redirection into the sidebar.

It appears the Lemmy backend does not escape HTML in the main sidebar. Not sure if this is also true for community sidebars.

I've seen a lot of comments suggesting Threads should be pre-emptively defederated by Lemmy/kbin instances if it tries to join us. I'm a bit confused what the problem would be. When Meta does its usual corporate bullshit over at Threads, how would that hurt a user or community based on Lemmy.world? If anything, wouldn't it give the fediverse a boost if Threads users start discovering communities outside of Meta's control?

I presume I'm missing something, as you can probably tell I don't fully understand how Lemmy, Threads or federation all work.

Got the suggestion from a comment yesterday (I'll link when I find it) and I'd been using FreshRSS on it's own for a long time. Morss is a godsend for feeds that like to give you only the headline. It's also especially awesome for the Hackernews and Lobsters feeds because it will expand the posted links for you which I appreciate a great deal. Hosting it takes like 3 seconds and it's so worth it.

There are a lot of reasons not to give them your money. They're assholes to the maker community and they openly talk shit on a lot of their customer base. That's beside the point, though, really.

It's just not a spectacular option for hosting. In order to get a Rpi competitive with even the shittiest laptop from 7 years ago, you're going to end up spending more than you would spend on a decent laptop from 7 years ago.

If it is a computer that turns on, it will likely function orders of magnitude better than an Rpi and won't bind you to ARM architecture. My entire hosting setup was pulled out of a recycling pile for free. Install ubuntu/ubuntu server and enjoy yourself.

If you intend on spending any amount of money on this hobby, I cannot express enough how much I recommend against any of that money going toward a Raspberry Pi.

EDIT: A lot of you seem to be reading this as "Raspberry Pis are all nonfunctional" and getting mad about it. Don't do that.

Edit 2: Good to see that all
