Tailscale is also ridiculously easy to use for this purpose. The serve and Funnel features make secure self hosting really easy from your tailnet (one can easily provision certificates for nodes using Let's Encrypt from the CLI: https://tailscale.com/blog/reintroducing-serve-funnel
As others have said, one's view of Lemmy is highly dependent upon the instances and communities that one frequents. As someone who isn't a habitué of politics, news, sport or meme communities, I've found my fellow lemmings to be pleasant, but I also believe that that is due to trying to be helpful and polite myself and being willing to apologize when warranted.
Same here! My mind struggled to align the image of kebab production with the concept of artificial spiritual guidance...
I hadn't noticed that until now. Thanks!
This would be a great Kagi lens (https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/lenses.html ), perhaps for the Fediverse generally, rather than just for Lemmy. They already have one for Reddit, as well as a 'small web' one focused on small sites and non-commercial material.
character.ai does not actually delete any accounts. If you try to do it, you lose the access to the account, but the account is still stored in the site
In the absence of a US federal privacy law akin to the GPDR, many states have enacted laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) which grant varying rights to state residents, including the right to data deletion in some cases. Bloomberg Law has a helpful primer: https://pro.bloomberglaw.com/insights/privacy/state-privacy-legislation-tracker/#states-with-comprehensive-data-privacy-laws
Well put. Since we've co-opted this comment section with meta-commentary, I'll also say that since LLMs came on the scene, I feel as if my sixth sense for AI text slop has become very refined; I can usually identify generative text within a few sentences, and stop reading.
Wow, how does that work? Does the font selector program generate a custom font file which gets deployed on each system? How does this work with printers?
I am at risk of becoming Lemmy's resident curmudgeon with my protestations against clickbait headlines, and now a distaste for lazy and unappealing generative AI images in articles, which disincentivize reading the material. Not the poster's fault, of course.
$11 million. Thanks, clickbait headline writer.
One of my very favorite albums.
Thank you! Even if this is harmless, the handling doesn't seem to be very elegant, so I'll have a go at filing a bug report. I've changed the notification type to "persistent" for messages going forward, so if this happens again I'll be able to capture the phone number of the message.
Disappearing message notification / message app freeze
cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/33588339
I received a text notification from an unknown number earlier today. I'm usually suspicious of such things, but clicked the notification. The messages app loaded, but displayed a blank white screen until I closed the app. After doing so, there was no evidence of the message notification or the message itself, in any of the message categories (known, unknown, all, deleted messages, etc).
This is on an iPhone 14 Pro Max using a fully up to date device running iOS 18.3.1 .
Has anyone else experienced this? I am hoping that the group might be able to offer insight into whether this is a bug worth reporting to Apple, or an attack of some sort? I am aware that at least one zero-click messaging bug was recently patched in iOS. I rebooted my device, and I'm waiting for the security delay to expire so I can reset my iCloud password. I have 2FA and stolen device protection switched on.

Accurate. Are you a summarization bot?
Perhaps it's time to bring back the amenity that Singapore Airlines devised to handle this situation on their ultra-long-haul flights in the Airbus 340-500 -- the corpse cupboard: https://simpleflying.com/singapore-airlines-airbus-a340-500-corpse-cupboards-history/
Thank you for saving me a click. Undersea data center operation and seawater cooling is not new; Microsoft has been pursuing such efforts for a decade or so now, under the auspices of Project Natick: https://natick.research.microsoft.com/
Kagi user chiming in here. Have been incredibly happy with the service in terms of search quality and overall usefulness since subscribing. Feels like Google in the early, early days (I was there) before they lost their soul. Their changelog page is instructive; -- https://kagi.com/changelog
There is also a reputed new cat-to/from-human transmission vector for H5N1, which was briefly noted in a CDC report last week before being redacted: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/06/health/cdc-bird-flu-cats-people.html . NYT article may be paywalled, but details can be found in other media sources as well.
