I don’t have any idea of who they are, but I don’t get it: we’re not preemptively defederating from Meta because it would be closed minded to do so (as per your admin decision), while Meta bad behavior is well documented (they’ve been fined by EU several times already), and we want to preemptively defederate from these people without even knowing how they will actually behave? Why? Shouldn’t they be “innocent until proven guilty”?
Sorry for those
It’s not your fault :) We know you admins are working really hard to keep the server as stable as possible.
Good job!
I work for a big enterprise, we have RHEL on all our Linux servers save for a few that are SuSe for SAP.
Microsoft Teams is the official communication tool for business where I work, no need to use whatsapp tho a few colleagues use it for fluff, as for personal/family, some of my family use whatsapp but I don’t (I use Discord), if we want to talk to each other we use “good old-fashioned” phone calls :D
Thank you for the amazing job, as always! Cloudflare is a solid solution :)
Haha this is amazing :D
Oh didn’t know that, thanks!
I agree those arguments have no legal ground, but I don’t believe emulators are made with the primary purpose of circumventing protections, it’s just naive to think people wouldn’t use them for that purpose IMO.
Haha :D English is not my first language, if the wording is not correct or there’s a better way of saying it, I welcome any correction :)
Valve then forwarded us the statement from Nintendo’s lawyers, and told us that we had to come to an agreement with Nintendo in order to release on Steam.
We all know Nintendo is a bitch and there’s nothing illegal in emulators, but Valve’s stance looks reasonable to me, it would be serious damage to Steam if they were involved in legal litigation.
The concept of having to compile something yourself is basically foreign to me
There’s no need to, what software do you need that you can’t find on Mint repositories?
having to basically rely on a built-in app database/store to easily install apps… Kinda stinks to me, and not being able to simply download an installer from a website and having the program, whatever program, up and running reliably within a minute, the concept seems ridiculous
Having an app repository is way more secure than downloading software from random websites, it’s also way faster.
But it’s fine if you don’t like it, each person has its own preferences.
Opensource yes, original impossible.
WoW server emulators have been in development for over a decade, they’re public projects on GitHub and released under opensource licenses, all private servers use those emulators, none of them has original code, it’s never been stolen.
You can compile them for Linux (as well as Windows), how well they work depends on the version, up to WoTLK they’re fine, from Cata on they’re quite bad.
You will need the original clients that are Windows only but they work flawlessly with WINE.
Most popular projects:
That’s only beehaw tho, it’s quite an unique community, it’s not representative of the “average” lemmy server.
I know of beehaw defederating from a lot of instances, that doesn’t make them isolated tho, there are still a lot of instances they’re federated with.
Servers are not isolated from each other, people participate in communities regardless of the server they have their account on, that’s how the federation works.
Tho if by “server” you actually mean “community” then yes, each community can have its own “culture” like different subs on reddit did.
I hate how lemmy users are like Redditors and downvote any information contrary to what they want to see
I was thinking the same. There’s one person being honest about why they use Twitter - in a thread asking about why it’s still used - and the only thing people can do here is downvoting him? It’s sad.
I used it a lot years ago, I can confirm it’s extremely easy, both using it an customizing it, I haven’t seen another editor making it so straightforward and easy to setup your own color coding for example (I used that a lot for dokuwiki pages), but I thought that project was abandoned at some point so I switched to codium.
I see by your post that it’s still being actively developed, I’ll give it another shot, thanks for sharing.
I fully agree with you, karma “whoring” is a serious problem on reddit, awards could lead to the same behavior here if implemented.
Donations are the best way to support the platform, if you want to be “visible” as donator, opencollective allows you to post a message about it, there’s also a sort of top donators page, that’s more than enough in my opinion.
I use the XFCE version, it’s around 400 MB idle, fluxbox should be even less I think.
