I hope people share the positive hits of CSAM and see how widespread the problem is...
DRAMTIC EDIT: the records lemmy_safety_local_storage.py identifies, not the images! @bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone seems to think it "sounds like" I am ACTIVELY encouraging the spreading of child pornography images... NO! I mean audit files, such as timestamps, the account that uploaded, etc. Once you have the timestamp, the nginx logs from a lemmy server should help identify the IP address.
and avoiding link rot
Lemmy seems built to destroy information, rot links. Unlike Reddit has been for 15 years, when a person deletes their account Lemmy removes all posts and comments, creating a black hole.
Not only are the comments disappeared from the person who deleted their account, all the comments made by other users disappear on those posts and comments.
Right now, a single user just deleting one comment results in the entire branch of comment replies to just disappear.
Installing an instance was done pretty quickly... over 1000 new instances went online in June because of the Reddit API change. But once that instance goes offline, all the communities hosted there are orphaned and no cleanup code really exists to salvage any of it - because the whole system was built around deleting comments and posts - and deleting an instance is pretty much a purging of everything they ever created in the minds of the designers.
yha, what do people think the FBI is for... this isn't crazy. They can get access to ISP logs, VPN provider logs, etc.
I can't find it, but a dozen plus years ago I was reading an interview with Phillip K Dick, who was married 5 times, and during the interview one of his- wives was packing things - and he commented to the interviewer to just let them take what they wanted as he has already experienced this multiple times.
Once Elon Musk returns him to Twitter, we will have the "bar and grill of all the world's journalist" for the past 15 years become a black hole of old news story history. The symbolic tactics that are under play are massive. Reality has been rejected on a massive scale via electric media.... Dans un sens, c'est le système entier qui, par sa fragilité interne, prête main-forte à l'action initiale. Plus le système se concentre mondialement, ne constituant à la limite qu'un seul réseau
Trump followers can't even see how the former mayor of NYC has lost his mind. They meet at 4 seasons gardening.
It's a variety of topics I find denial of reality to be increasing. Climate change science, including the history of how long ago people like Carl Sagan made it a widespread topic. Medical science with pandemics, nonsensical views on how vaccines work. Wild views about how windmills work and interact with the environment.
Back then, they seemed to just wear a lot more clothes. It's such an odd stance to think you can't use an umbrella or clothing to block out the sun. I can understand being skeptical about the side-effects of sunscreen being slathered on your body and absorbed... but it's pretty common to see depiction of parasols being used in older times.
Most of these ‘attacks’ are targeted at the database
A major PostgreSQL performance issue, logic mistake, was discovered today in lemmy_server and is an easy fix. Details: https://lemmy.world/post/2008987
Good to see a heavy production server taking on the scaling issues. Thank you! To discuss Lemmy performance issues, there is a dedicated community: !lemmyperformance@lemmy.ml
the comment_like database table in Lemmy also has a timestamp on it, "published" field, that discloses what time you voted. This reveals patterns of your Lemmy usage to other federated servers.
Your home instance will act as a proxy and only they have access to your email and IP address.
Your home image typically doesn't proxy image loading, those are hotlinked to the Lemmy server that the image was uploaded to. So your IP address and browser string are going to other Lemmy servers.
It is not even a mistake, it's some pretty mind-fucked up on part of @bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone to jump to such a conclusion. crap
