Will it reach the other server?

[-] Kierunkowy74@kbin.social 26 points 7 months ago

Socialhome with its tiled display of posts
Bonfire, which is modular, and will be available in many flavours (for Open Science, organisations or simply a social network)
Mobilizon - events and groups.
Gancio - events, published anonymously. Instance can be followed from Fediverse as an account.
Bookwyrm for books
Postmarks - a federated bookmarking website
Funkwhale - for uploading and listening to music
Castopod - Wordpress but for podcasting?
Misskey and its forks - more than Twitter emulation - includes emoji reactions and animated text!

You could peek at two opposing views on the same article, for example.

Post-truth as a service.

Wikipedia is not a Big Tech nor a commercial enterprise prone to enshittification nor it profits from surveillance capitalism. We don't need another, competing, universal source of enclopedical information. Wikipedia, on contrary to X, Reddit, Facebook, etc. is not going anywhere. Any self-styled Wikipedia alternative ended up dead, thematic, or biased by design.

However there are many thematical and fan wikis hosted on Fandom, which itself is a commercial company and there were already some contoversies concerning it. Wikis on Fandom are very resource-intensive compared to Wikipedia or independent thematical wikis.

Ability to edit at several wikis from the same account without being tied to Fandom could be one of things that Ibis offers and could benefit independent wiki sites.

And of course, MediaWiki is free software and federation could be added as a functionality.

Its federation. Even to that point, than I can reply to you when not using Lemmy at all. I am writing this from /kbin.

For example, Threads supports audio posts, a feature not currently supported within ActivityPub(...)

@sjvn : In 1984, a $2.5k computer - with a 9-inch black-and-white display, 128KB RAM, 400 KB floppy drive, and built-in networking - changed everything. Until it didn't. Then these two things saved the Mac.

@livus, you probably want to add another hashtag to this mag: #NowWatching

I'm using #MXLinux on #LiveUSB and tried to rollback it to previous remaster. However, I had updated the kernel to newer version before.
In effect, the OS "didn't finish up booting", or, rather threw (as I saw after Alt-F1) an (uncritical) error about new kernel unavailable and booted up to CLI. To recover from this, I used the same live-kernel-updater, but rolled back the kernel version instead of updating. This recovered the system.

This should be helpful also for #Antix users as both distros share their LiveUSB utilities.

Authorised Fetch existed long before Instagram Threads. When it is turned on, an instance will require any other server to sign their request to fetch any post. This prevents "leaking" of posts via ActivityPub to blocked instances.

This setting is turned off by default, because some software are incompatible with it (like /kbin, Pixelfed before June 2023, maybe Lemmy too), because it makes server load higher, and it may make some replies missing (at least on microblogging side).

This is not an exhaustive list. For example, Instagram Threads profiles are available from kbin.social, which is not listed here, though.

PHP 8.3 is a major update of the PHP language. It contains many new features, such as explicit typing of class constants, deep-cloning of readonly properties and additions to the randomness functionality. As always it also includes performance improvements, bug fixes, and general cleanup.

What chmod step?

When I clicked on new app image, the OS told me, that program /name of app/ will be launched, I clicked "Continue" and it runs! No meddling with "chmod" or anything like that.

Aardman differs from most other major animation studio because of its use of Lewis Newsplast to mould its characters.

This is a plasticine-like substance which is easy to mould but also keeps its shape under hot studio lights.

However, it was only made by one factory, and the Torquay-based manufacturer closed earlier this year.
