.ml as usual trying to justify anything they dislike as bigotry or sexism. Should probably also post about this on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works
It is. I mean yes it'll be replaced by others just as bad or worse, and maybe might come back again anyway, but it's still a huge win for now.
That actually seems really scary, I'm thankful that the only people I know who were affiliated with 4chan are people I only know online or don't live anywhere near me.
Does ffmpeg handle DVD decryption through libdvdcss? I don't think it does, it's a tool mainly meant for file conversion and encoding of mpeg files. I could be wrong though.
At least it got leaked at all. Hopefully we'll get another leak in the future.
It's scary just how real this sounds. Just goes to show how messed up our current reality is.
That's true, they outright lied, it's not one of those technically true situations they outright lied and said unlimited and ban people for going over an arbitrary data limit, not even temporarily cutting off connection, outright suspending their accounts.
It doesn't show in the modlog but in case anyone is wondering, it was gore/animal violence spam. If you didn't see it consider yourselves lucky.
That makes sense, best to try and give them a chance before going the ugly route. I do try and point this out since there are a lot of people who believe you should never EVER do a chargeback since companies, especially the sleazy ones claim it's not allowed or broadly illegal (likely because if people were more inclined to do it, they'd be in big trouble).
It's not "a bit misleading" for them to call it unlimited and then ban people for using too much data, it's extremely misleading, almost bordering on scammy. If I were OP I would've done a chargeback and switched VPNs instead of begging them for an unban. They deserve it for lying and trying to deceive customers. Vote with your wallet (and chargebacks) if you want companies to stop doing shitty shady like this.
Hopefully when it does drop out of Beta and they start charging people for activation people will be willing to crack it and use it for free.

Yeah April fools day has much darker history and connotations than most people realize.
Just wanted to share for people who moderate communities that Tesseract lets you see who voted on a post or comment. This means that as moderators you finally have the ability to take action against users who downvote every post in your community or who vote with multiple accounts, or similar situations.
This might not be a new thing but it's something no one is talking about and I just wanted to let you all know its a thing.
It works on this instance: https://t.lemmy.dbzer0.com/
Or at the main Tesseract Frontent: https://tesseract.dubvee.org/
I've been playing Journey recently and was inspired to make this meme.

Reported less than five of this dipshit's posts and he ended up banning me from all of his communities. Doesn't really surprise me. I've known that reports on Lemmy are faulty and Admin only reports, or more control of who receives them has been suggested but Lemmy's devs never listen.
My advice is to just send messages directly to your Admins as well as his admins, then he can't intercept them.
Really thought the old one was much cooler, does anyone else agree?
I mean it is what it is ultimately but I always thought the older one looked much cooler. While the new one looks very flat and plain.
What do you guys think though?

This behavior is very concerning, especially since it's not a one-off, their other replies on that account aren't much better.

I’ve had the ActivityPub plugin active on this blog for a while now and it’s been happily federating to mastodon for just as long. However it never worked on lemmy, and I always assumed it was just not set for it and was primarily focused on microblogging since lemmy was not even mentioned in the supported software.
This was until one of the lemmy developers contacted me, having been informed by a member of our lemmy instance that dbzer0.com was not properly configured for lemmy. I was perplexed of course because I didn’t really do any customization on the wordpress plugin whatsoever. I just used whatever defaults it came with.
Through some back and forth between the developers and me, I eventually started experimenting with the plugin settings, trying to see if any of them would make it behave in a way that lemmy could understand, until one of the options finally did the trick.
As a result, this WordPress blog is now happily existing as a lemmy community !dbzer0.com@dbzer0.com
’tis a bit of a silly community name, but it works.
Unfortunately the previous posts on this blog are not retrieved automatically, so you won’t be able to see them or their comments in the community, but one can search for a blog url in lemmy and it will discover it and open it for comments. Any comments posted there should also appear as comments under the posts here which is pretty neat!
So if you’re on lemmy or piefed, just visit its community from your own instance and subscribe to it, and new blogposts will appear directly in your lemmy feed. I love apub!
Many thanks to both pferfferle (the apub plugin developer) and the lemmy developers who looked into this!
leave a comment (from lemmy?) to let me know what you think.
I agree, really wish lemmy had a native warning function built-in that sent a message to the modlog and an anonymous mod message to the user they can't reply to which warned them of their action. Mastodon has a warning function natively, why doesn't Lemmy?
