A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I'm from the 90s and early 2000s Windows days when most of my time was spent figuring things out and getting things to run
STILL don't understand what I'm supposed to do with the stuff on GitHub lmao 😂
Usually just go to the “releases” section in the right, click the latest release, and download the built executable for your system from there.
I don't think this one has an executable, but it doesn't require compilation either. And instructions are quite simple.

Nah it's just a python script.
Best you are going to get is a docker-compose.yml normally.
All I know about python is that blender uses it so maybe it can be placed in there
There's actually a Dockerfile
https://github.com/sherlock-project/sherlock/blob/master/Dockerfile
It's code,
git clonethen build. If there is a standardmakefileit's super easy. If it's some modern age hispter trash build system you're in for some pain.or download from the releases?
This is the answer for non-developer people (most people out there, actually).
not all shithub users bother with that
It's simply a Pyhton script, you can run it directly or build a Docker image.

Meson + ninja is pretty nice. Builds a lot faster than autotools as well.
You know, with so many frameworks with the weirdest names, I honestly don't know if people are just joking or not...
"Yeah! just use turtle and chubby" "Oh! I prefer tuktuk and lollipop"
Funny bit: I totally made those up, then went to GitHub, and found out there are real projects called like that. Lol!
Unless the build step is going to do something super custom I shouldn't be required to build it myself.
"Build a Docker image." Not "build the application".
Or, you know, don't use the free thing.
Use the code to build a time machine, go back to the 1960s and learn to program using only text... /s
Now, seriously: normally, if it's an app, look for the "Releses" on the right. If there's a binary (compiled app) to download, it will be there. If the developers are cool, they'll include a download link directly on the Read Me file you see when you arrive at the repository.
In the 60s they was coding with holes, not words.
That was the “hard disk” XD
