Totally agree. Like most “rules”, it just needs treating with nuance and context.
I can totally see how it could be read like that!
Five-a-side is a specific format of football (soccer), aimed at more casual play with a much lower bar to skill level. Outside of five-a-side leagues (which do exist), it’s rarely played with fixed teams and often ran in a more “pick up group” fashion.
Five-a-side football (soccer). I’m not a sporty person, but started going with a local group a few years ago and have reaped the benefits of doing some intensive team exercise once per week. I go with a bunch of guys way older than I am, and it’s amazing how fit and healthy they are compared to the average person I meet of their age. I certainly plan to keep this up so long an injury doesn’t prevent me.
Nice. I’ve not seen any of your other videos yet, but I can say that for this one, I really loved that you just jumped straight in to the action and kept the video tight, without missing important details.
I really admire her after seeing this. She is so dialled in to what’s going on in her working area, and she doesn’t get flustered when probed with follow-up questions. Regardless of party, we could do with more people like her running and being elected as MPs - but I imagine she wouldn’t even consider it.
You know, I wish I could enjoy IRC - or chatrooms in general. But I just struggle with them. Forums and their ilk, I get. I check in on them and see what’s been posted since I last visited, and reply to anything that motivates me to do so. Perhaps I’ll even throw a post up myself once in a while.
But with IRC, Matrix, Discord, etc, I just feel like I only ever enter in the middle of an existing conversation. It’s fine on very small rooms where it’s almost analagous to a forum because there’s little enough conversation going on that it remains mostly asynchronous. But larger chatrooms are just a wall of flowing conversation that I struggle to keep up with, or find an entry point.
Anyway - to answer the actual question, I use something called “The Lounge” which I host on my VPS. I like it because it remains online even when I am not, so I can atleast view some of the history of any conversation I do stumble across when I go on IRC. I typically just use the web client that comes with it.
For Lemmy, it is the latter. Federated content is stored locally on each instance.
I really like Nushell. I would not run it as a daily driver currently, as it mostly doesn’t win me over from Fish, feature-wise, but I love having it available for anything CLI date pipeline work I need to do.
I think that is really in the spirit of Lemmy and the Fediverse. Pick an instance that aligns with your interests / identity / geography / etc, and use that as an entry point to the rest. It doesn’t work so well if that entry point has overzealous gatekeeping.
We have not blocked anything proactively.
For us, it was a priority to get some open communication out on this issue, due to any uncertainty caused my Lemmy.world’s actions.
Unfortunately, there are some cases of direct linking occurring. Fortunately, it’s mostly caught by moderators and admins and removed. Defederating is certainly an extreme case, and it’s absolutely not something we’re intending to do. It would be an absolutely extreme scenario for that to occur in this case.
Shouldn’t we defederate .world?
There is no appetite to defederate from lemmy.world. I know their some of their decisions have been unpopular with some users, but they are by far the largest Lemmy instance, and that puts a target on them. Like us, they are a bunch of volunteers trying their best to run a large community and that will sometimes mean making decisions they probably aren’t keen of themselves.
Yes, my personal stance would also be against blocking. The general preference is to avoid blocking wherever possible.
Love this. Always interesting to see novel ways of querying data in the terminal, and I agree that jq’s syntax is difficult to remember.
I actually prefer nu(shell) for this though. On the lobste.rs thread for this blog, a user shared this:
| get license.key -i
| uniq --count
| rename license
This outputs the following:
╭───┬──────────────┬───────╮
│ # │ license │ count │
├───┼──────────────┼───────┤
│ 0 │ bsd-3-clause │ 23 │
│ 1 │ apache-2.0 │ 5 │
│ 2 │ │ 2 │
╰───┴──────────────┴───────╯
the piracy community isn’t on this instance, so it’d be a surprise if there’s any legal basis to charge PD with anything related to it.
This is not so clear-cut. The nature of federation means that any posts you see through via this instance are hosted here too. How liable we are for that content is certainly an important question.
Thanks for your feedback.
Thanks. I didn’t know about these advanced libraries, and had not heard of C++ modules either. Appreciate the explanation.
I don’t code in C++ (although I’m somewhat familiar with the syntax). My understanding is the header files should only contain prototypes / signatures, not actual implementations. But that doesn’t seem to be the case here. Have I misunderstood, or is that part of the joke?
Yes, I can see cases where this might be valid. For example, if you wanted to be some kind of SAP administrator / programmer (a paid-only enterprise management software), nobody would hire you for such a role without having some experience with that product. Same for something like Salesforce.
I agree. The content is reasonably sound, but from a design and UX perspective, it’s awful.
She was 89 and no doubt lead a truly fulfilling life, and so I think objectively it’s not a sad passing - she had a truly remarkable life and long life.
That said, she was a significant part of my childhood, and always on the television in the various households I’ve lived in for one show or another. It feels like losing a beloved grandmother, and I’m devastated. RIP Maggie.
