WARNING: Lemmy Self-Hosters, There Have Been CSAM Attacks taking place against [email protected]

There have been users spamming CSAM content in [email protected] causing it to federate to other instances. If your instance is subscribed to this community, you should take action to rectify it immediately. I recommend performing a hard delete via command line on the server.
I deleted every image from the past 24 hours personally, using the following command:
sudo find /srv/lemmy/example.com/volumes/pictrs/files -type f -ctime -1 -exec shred {} \;Note: Your local jurisdiction may impose a duty to report or other obligations. Check with these, but always prioritize ensuring that the content does not continue to be served.
Has anyone defederated your instance? Introducing Defederation Investigator

I couldn't find any tools to check this, so I built one myself.
This is a little site I built: the Defederation Investigator defed.xyz. With it, you can get a comprehensive view of which instances have blocked yours, as well as which ones you are federated with.
The tool is open source and available on GitHub. Hopefully someone will find it useful, enjoy.
Now that you've said it, I can't unsee it

For short haul flights where a train is preferable, or private iets, absolutely. However airplanes are still the most efficient way to travel long distances. Abolishing airplanes altogether is one of the least thought out takes I've ever heard.
Reiverr: A clean UI for Jellyfin, TMDB, Sonarr and Radarr, as well as a replacement to Overseerr
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/1908082
Hey ya all,
Reiverr is a project of mine that I’ve decided to release to the public today. It’s a self-hosted website similar to the content discovery app Overseerr, with the added features of managing and watching your content library through Sonarr, Radarr and Jellyfin integrations. The motivation behind the project was the lack of a unified modern UI that could be used to discover, manage and watch content in a single place.
Currently, the project is in very early stages of development, but it is mostly usable in its current state. If you want to try it out, you can find the installation instructions in the project’s GitHub page:

Also: For the project to reach its fullest potential, it could use contributions! If you’d like to contribute code, designs (I’m not a UI designer, please help me), docu
India's Defence Ministry to switch from Windows to locally built Ubuntu fork 'Maya' over security concerns
www.thehindu.com India Defence Ministry to replace Microsoft OS with Maya
India’s Defence Ministry has decided to replace Microsoft Operating System with Maya, a new OS based on open-source Ubuntu developed by government agencies
cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/2523551
Due to increasing concerns over cyberattacks and malware, India's Defence Ministry has decided to replace Microsoft's OS with a locally made Ubuntu fork named Maya (meaning 'deception' in Sanskrit). Maya will have an interface similar to Windows to ease the transition, and an end-point detection and protection system called Chakravyuh. The three armed services are also expected to follow suit, with the Navy already having cleared the OS for deployment.
The Indian government has long had a policy to transfer all government systems to open-source software, with the Railways and the Bombay Stock Exchange having switched to Red Hat and educational institutions using distributions such as Debian-based BOSS and Ubuntu-based KITE.

PSA for Lemmy instance admins: in backend v0.18.3 there is a bug that causes your instance to stop federating properly and to stop sending out outgoing messages
cross-posted from: https://yiffit.net/post/868741
This new version introduced a system so that your instance stops sending out content to other instances that are supposedly dead / offline.
Unfortunately for some reason there's false positives. When I checked comparing the results from a curl request vs the information in our Lemmy database I found over 350+ false positives.
In the DB there is a table called "instance" which has a column called "updated". If the date on that column is older than 3 days, your server will stop sending any content to those instances.
For some reason I had entries that were dated as last being alive in July, while actually they were always up. If an entry is incorrect, you can fix it by manually using an update statement and adding today's date. If your instance is not too large you can safely update all entries to today's date and check if everything works as expected from then on any new content created on your instances.

Never thought I'd see the day, someone admitting they were wrong online. Take some imaginary gold.
Saw it last night in IMAX. There were no parts that dragged. It did not feel like 3 hours and was very engaging the whole time. I'm still reflecting on it. Go see it if you can in IMAX
Considering Edge lane roads have reduced crashes by 44% in the US I'd say they fare pretty well with American vehicle ownership. When drivers are sharing the lane with oncoming traffic, it tends to slow their cars down a bit regardless of size. I'd even wager that larger trucks feel the calming effects of this tight road design more than a small car.
Plenty of neighborhoods in the us with parked cars on both sides of a bidirectional travel lane wide enough for one car. Cars go slow and negotiate for space. It's a very similar concept here.
Glad someone made this comment before me. Here's the MLive article the clickbait is based on. You can learn more about edge lane roads here.
Generally these are good for slower speed routes that don't seea lot of traffic. Residential streets are a perfect example. It's basically how drivers instinctively navigate down slow narrow streets. Not too familiar with that area of Kalamazoo to know if it's a good fit for that road but I'm generally in favor of this road layout and think we need more of them in the US so it's not seen as some scary confusing thing by motorists.
The in game music had the exact opposite effect lol
I would say it is poorly managed for the fact that their rules and community standards are not clearly outlined. They ban for reasons not listed in their rules. For a community this large, there needs to be some sort of outlined expectations. It's fairly apparent they are more interested in moderating the subreddit and this Lemmy community is downstream of that in their minds. Expecting us to just magically know the subreddit standards without being listed out is textbook bad management.
Unless that discussion violates mod opinion
The com at the time was dominated by discussion of the Prodigy cancellation, so it was a relevant topic and not being overly critical for the sake of being overly critical. It presented an opinion of the cancelation that wasnt predicting doom and gloom for the franchise like the mod line being pushed at the time.
Even if it isn't substantial, why isn't there a list of blocked domains? Or a rule about it? It could have spurred a discussion in the comments, what makes a community forum like this so special. The point is it didn't violate any community standards. Then when I tried to open a discussion about it to try and refine the rules/community standards moving forward (early days of reddit emigration) I was permabanned for starting drama.
I'm not looking for a com where everyone is super critical. I am looking for one where mods are acting as petty little tyrants banning well meaning contributors because they don't have the exact same opinion on certain things as they do.
The mods are more interested in the reddit community and it shows. It's clear Lemmy is downstream of reddit to them.
The mods on startrek.website are the same ones from reddit and care little about transparency or actually hosting a star trek community that fosters open discussion. They are frequently banning users that voice opinions that don't break any rules except mod opinion.
This has been going on for some time and is the perfect use case for why decentralizing common discussion topics is a feature, not a bug, of the fediverse/lemmy
