I will migrate myself directly into a new company. Byeeeeeee

I’ve found out the hard way: Running the script during startup, and running it using the proper user authorization, are two different things.

Oh, for piss sake! People just code all sorts of stuff, don’t they? Lol

Bluesky is supposed to decentralized, though it doesn’t seem to be. Threads being blocked doesn’t change the fact that it is technically part of the verse, although a red herring. Maybe both poor examples, but they’re alternatives to the verse, which was my point. Maybe adding a public mastodon instance as an alternative would have been a better example, but the main point stands: a uni isn’t likely going to host their own instance, due to the inherent risk associated with it.

Honorable goal. But it won’t work. From a business’s perspective, hosting such a server adds inherent risk. They won’t do it. You may be able to convince them to use the fediverse through threads or bluesky, but they won’t host their own instance, even if the CTO/CIO/CISO agrees with your love for the verse. I’m not saying you shouldn’t try. I’m saying you should provide alternatives to twitter and to self-hosted mastodon; alternatives that don’t require self hosting anything.

This was ONE GUY??? What a legend! I hope his family knows the giant positive impact he’s had on so many people, and is able to find some sort of comfort knowing he will be missed by so many strangers. A true tragedy.

That is true. That has been, and (for some dumb reason) continues to be, a real problem.

If we all had big passwords, this may not have been an issue to begin with lol

RISC-V is where ARM was a few years ago. It’ll be a ship shaker, too, if it keeps developing at this rate. But, for now at least, we have ARM and clunky old (solid) x86 as the major players.

This means we must band together and wholeheartedly support the architecture. Clearly, it is a ship shaker, and industries don’t like ship shakers (even if it would result is a better industry or is better for the consumer, maybe especially if it was better for the consumer).

ARM is shaking the ship, so we must shake it too.

Personally, I would use a simple spreadsheet for this.

But if you have your heart set on a db, you can use Access or LibreOffice Base for ease of initial setup.

Maybe SQL (or PRQL, if you’re feeling cutting edge) with some dbms (SSMS Community I think is still free, or maybe Heidi SQL) but this will require you maintain a server as well. PostgreSQL is what I generally use if I want to spin up something quickly. I do like SQL quite a bit, but it seems overkill for this task.

Sweet! I’ll give it a try on my next install. Thanks!

So, solas isn’t based on debian or some other core base? It’s its own thing? Did I understand correctly?

I’m sure I’m missing something, but what is unique about this distro?

I added it as an edit to the original. It didn’t work. “Could not fetch” was the error. That’s fine. I am using the rss anyway : )

So it works with Lemmy handles? Sweet! I’m trying now.

Edit: Doesn’t work. “Could not fetch”. That’s ok, I’ll use the rss for now : )

Right, but what would me my handle? My Lemmy handle?

Edit: I downloaded FeedFlow just to add the rss lol.

Not sure, but when you find out, post here. I’ll join!

I tried, but it tells me to provide a handle, which I don’t have on podcast.james.network. Maybe I misunderstood?

Security <> privacy. And this is where they slice the difference. Although, they’re not secure, either lol

Most of these are not squares. They’re rectangles.

Also, c-squared would have been an amazing name based on a math pun. Lol

Also, this looks awesome and I love it.
