Freaky to read your account. I switched to ubuntu desktop like 3 weeks ago, bought a gpu, installed steam (ok, I had to reinstall from apr since snap didn’t work well), 2 days ago I installed cyberpunk and it runs at 80 fps mostly high-ultra settings without one crash so far, no special boot parameters. (I had to edit the exe today so it wouldn’t force controller config though)

It’s insane how far linux has come in the last 5 yrs. I hope it goes on like this. In opposition to amd, linux actually is our friend. :)

As a mod on reddit (who only reacts to pings these days) I would like to post an undramatic message „here‘s what happened, if you‘re interested to join our lemmy mirror, here‘s the link.“

Anyone got something I could use which will not set off reddit stans or get me replaced and the message deleted?

Back when I used facebook, not the boomers sent me the worst stupidity evidence but people who were severely undereducated and isolated from others. Those incidentally were also the most likely to fall for alt right propaganda or other conspiracy theories.

Not saying thats the rule, just some anecdotal evidence.

Who wants to bet that all companies will open up instances once they get wind of it?

Maybe I‘ll mod my ps3 to make it emulate games. I heard that works pretty good.

I obviously would like to get tons of old games and since they’re not sold anywhere for a fair price, I deem it morally sound to find them.

I heard of „handheld retro gaming consoles“ which also have found games on them. Does anyone have experience with those?

Btw: Since the graphics are pretty low res, that could be a better alternative than the ps3 since the 55“ tv its hooked up to might make it look worse.

It’s just an idea at this point so I‘m happy for any direction. I figured c/retrogaming might be wrong since talking about finding unlicensed games might be against their rules. Feel free to advise me otherwise.

P.S.: Forgive the ignorance. I know my way around commandline and some medium advanced programming but I‘m not pro at sailing the high seas at all.

The problem seems to be that the constitution does not say what free speech is and now everyone thinks they are experts on it.

'Coercing' someone to not spread lies and half truths is exactly their job. These judges seem to be either incompetent or crooked. Possibly both.

Hi folks! I moderate a community but the app I use while on the go (memmy) does not seem to have any mod tools. I can’t find a way to delete posts on the community I mod. Maybe its my mistake.

Does anyone know of a solution for this? Except maybe using the web interface I assume.

Thanks in advance.

I hope they all get fucked. This law should have been brought to light like 10 yrs earlier. So much market consolidation could have been prevented and so much capital extraction would not have happened. I hope this works.

TL;DR: I want to pull emails from 5 accounts on to my homeserver to anti spam them and have my clients pull from there

I currently have like 5 major email accounts on different providers which I use for 100s of accounts on many platforms.

Some of these accounts are very old and come with the added bonus of no spam filter on the free tier.

Now, if you use outlook, you can define anti spam rules there, I know. But since I‘m using many different devices and different mail clients, I can’t be bothered to make anti spam rules for all of them.

So I thought it should be doable to pull all the emails from all my accounts and have them go through anti spam on my home server. Sidenote: I have anti spam on some email providers but I can’t redirect the one address to there as to use that accounts anti spam.

One solution would be to just get rid of this one account but I‘m a little anxious about the consequences since it is my oldest account with unthinkable amounts of accounts linked to it.

Does anyone have a similar scenario or an idea for a solution?

Isn’t this like the second time the ceo said something like that? I think he probably needs to be unseated from his position.

The interesting part are those who still don’t write letters to their congressmen and still vote for climate deniers. I just can’t.

It would be insanely easy to solve: Not one of the billionaires out there would recognize if they only had 999 mil left and neither would anybody else. That‘s a cool 10 trillion to pay towards climate change. You‘re welcome.

That money was earned using earth, so to saving earth it goes back (because no earth, no money and our billionaire overlords suprisingly havent saved us yet.)

I don’t know if it is the „correct“ way but I do it the other way around. I have a server and a backup server. Server user can‘t even see backup server but packs a backup, backup server pulls the data with read only access, main server deletes backup, done.

No, actually you are kissing googles but every day.

And big plus for google: it can be extended very well. The site sees any extension installed, if the browser is headless. So only google can use bots in the future and can rake in all the ai training profits and sell all the searchengine ads.

Wei is a lot more than ad block control.

I know I could google it but I prefer to discuss it here:

There are many interesting discussions about antitrust, companies being jerks and corporats making the world worse.

I think it would be cool to have a couple „rogue“ lawyers band together and start making class action law suits against corporations and states for using/enabling anti consumer/anti competitive practices.

I have never been asked to participate in such lawsuits so I assume its not being optimally presented online so far.

Feel free to correct my impression here.

TL;DR: I think we need more ways to fight against anti consumer/privacy stuff in courts all over the world.

I fully agree that if mods become a problem, there are ways to handle it.

But I strongly disagree that its reddits biggest problem. Most of the moderators there are trying their best to be fair and conductive.

You wouldn’t believe the amount of shit they have to deal with on a daily basis ans the bigotry they’re confronted with.

Anyway, I think there need to be mods here as well and they will make unpopular decisions. Try becoming one yourself and leading by example.

Working subreddit migrator? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hi there! I moderate a couple subreddits and would like to bring at least a copy of them to lemmy (so I can move them entirely if I decide/am forced to).

I have searched on google and github extensively but since I‘m quite new to python, frankensteining a working script is out of reach just now.

Since the pushshift api has stopped working afaik, most scripts I find will not work. I tried a couple, all with the same outcome so far.

I‘m in contact with a couple coder friends to find someone able to make this work and have at least some seed content (100 posts, all if possible) for these subreddits.

Does anyone here have a working script? And why are we not seeing massive copies of subreddit emerge? Has it just become impossible? (It should at least be possible to use a headless browser to copy the data by „manually“ sifting through subs.

Hope to find someone who can help. Have a good one! :)
