  • Fairly sure that this is never going to happen, nor do I think it should, unless you’re describing duplicate content sent to the same community on the same instance within a certain period.

    The fediverse is decentralized and by design each instance is independent. Data is shared between instances depending on subscribers. There isn’t a central database for every post or comment.

    A person posting the same content on two instances would each automatically distribute that to other instances. At some point there’d be overlap when the duplicate content arrived at the same instance.

    At that point, which one is duplicate and which one is original? Do you delete the duplicate? What about the other instances that already have the content?

    Do you want to introduce a definitive source of truth that tracks which post was first? Doing so creates a single point of censorship and failure.

    So, I’m going with, no, that’s not something I think can, or should ever happen.

    I have no idea what Bazzite is.

    The error says that there’s a missing file. If it used to work, but after you updated, upgraded, compiled, installed or something to get a new kernel, it broke.

    I’m guessing that you installed the wrong kernel or didn’t update the initial ramdisk correctly.

    You might be able to boot using the previous kernel, but I’d start with trying to figure out what you did to get here.

    You should be able to boot from the installation media in rescue mode to fix this, but that won’t happen until you know what’s broken.

















  • JavaScript is often used in modern websites to actually render content, as-in, generate what you see on the page. Blocking access is possible if you don’t have JavaScript enabled, but it’s rare. More likely it’s just not showing content because it’s not there.

    Disabling JavaScript in and of itself is not something I understand as a viable way to interact with the internet.

    You are better off anonymizing your browser. You can do this by launching separate instances without any profile in incognito mode and only use it on one site before closing it down.

    You can also automatically “crawl” websites using tools like headess Chrome and Puppeteer. No doubt there are websites that will do this for you, for a fee.

    Ultimately, JavaScript is a programming language, nothing more, nothing less.
