I second this, just be sure to backup your settings if you upgrade, it likes to forget things on upgrades I’ve noticed.
Just your normal everyday casual software dev. Nothing to see here.

I pick and choose my battles. Online? Sure. In a federal building with 700 other cameras that have already more than easily got my mugshot 20x over as soon as I entered, I’m just going to take the Convenience benefit. It’s not going to change anything.
No, and it helps tremendously, if you leave and enter the country.
Like privacy wise it sucks but, I was the only one in my family that wasn’t stopped for manual check at customs because I was already in the system
as long as they aren’t going to force me into said religion I would be fine with it, if I dated anyway.
I would try to support them and all but, I’m agnostic
I only use lemmy, I left reddit during the mod api fiasco
as for social media, unless you concider YouTube or discord I don’t have any
Which will be absolutely dumb. It’s been proven a few times that removable batteries are possible with waterproof certifications.
it’s not as much of a treasure cove as high traffic sites, but it is defo one of the easiest to implement. Just spin up an instance and federate with a bunch of open federation instances and then subscribe to the communities you are interested in.
I saw this the other day as well when i was looking at filebrowsers github looking into seeing if it had SSO support. It’s a shame really.
My first experience was playing lego inventor on windows XP. it was so fun and would hook me for awhile. I could load the site then disconnect from the internet during play since it loaded the entire game at once, so I wouldn’t need to worry about holding the phone line up. Before that was usenet.
as others have said, generally a privacy issue type deal. Sometimes regarding data being collected then sold.
I don’t agree with the mentality tbh, if you were concerned about that just don’t post. Nothing is stopping the data collectors from collecting it anyway(I’m sure they already have their own instance set to auto sub and ignore deletion requests), the only people who are effected by it are the users who wanted to see the post, and the people who put effort into responding.
Firmly agree. If I notice a trend on posts being deleted after posting, I just block the user so I don’t see the new posts. Nothing is more annoying then putting a bunch of effort responding to someones question, especially tech related, just for them to nuke the post later on so it was all for nothing.
Thankfully though, it’s few and far between on the communities that I usually look at, so I have not noticed it a whole lot.
I remember that. They actually had quite a bit of trouble when they first tried to establish as an officially licensed company because of the fact that their initial user base was sailing the seas.
I don’t doubt it with some of the translations I’ve seen. I think it would be better for them to just release the main content and then release subtitles further on down the road, But I assume there’s probably some sort of accessibility law that forbids them from doing that.
It just gets super annoying watching a show and either having poor quality subtitles or subtitles that blatantly spoil parts of the series.
For example, in one piece
When you first meet Blackbeard, from memory, he doesn’t say who he is. He just stands there as an old drunkard. And you’re meant to expect that he’s just some crazy drunk person that’s interacting with the main party. You don’t actually find out who he is for a good 5-10 episodes. However, if you had subtitles on, they clearly label him as Blackbeard during the first encounter, so it ruins that entire revelation.
I use subtitles because I have ADHD, And as part of that, it makes it so I struggle to keep up with audio versus comprehending it and subtitles give me a short delay of being able to catch up and still be able to read the text to understand what happened. when the subtitles are broken, I end up hard focusing on that. or get lost requiring me to rewind. Super annoying.
I should clarify it depends on your definition of fan. When you’re making a derivative work, there’s two versions. There’s fan which is The person is enthusiastic about the content and then there is the intellectual property variation of it, which is someone who is doing it for non-commercial reasons under fair use(or said countries equivalent). However, once you start requiring money for said process, it removes the protections the creator has shielding it and generally changes the definition to that version.
Additionally, I agree a donation jar would be much better, but even then it’s been shown that that doesn’t resolve all liability because fan projects have been taken down for having a donation button even though the project itself is free, heck projects have been taken down for having advertisements on the projects website despite having nothing to do with said project
Sadly, this can be said about actual streaming services as well. There’s some episodes on Crunchyroll on even big name titles like One Piece is very clear that they took the episode and threw it through some sort of subtitle auto generator because it won’t line up with what they’re saying. And I don’t mean like they don’t align or they’re out of sync. That does happen as well. What I mean is like it will say Fred on the show, but it will say the word bread on the screen.
I don’t get it, because a service that is licensing the shows shouldn’t need to use a service like that, because shouldn’t the original source have that information? It makes me wonder if those big streaming services are still pirating the smaller things, like subtitles.
Not really a fan translation service if they’re requiring payment.
There was a pretty large exodus yea, especially among people who created content and the moderators who were insulted during the event.
Being said, many didn’t have a suitable replacement to go to. Lemmy became the replacement for a chunk of them but, if you can find where the rest went, you have gotten further than I did. I assume they either went to discord like Pinball said, or just stopped posting in general. It’s a big reason that a lot of the more niche subs stopped having posts, and the reason that reddit as a whole is so much more toxic(interaction wise) now.
fair it was basically worthless
Real time ip blocking while keeping the judge requirement? Idk how real time that process is going to be unless they just keep a judge on standby for all events.
Least I assume this system will need judicial review prior to actually sending the block out, otherwise this system is so prime for abuse it isn’t even funny. They don’t state penalties for abuse, they don’t state how they get the data, they don’t state a specific method of how to block.
There’s so much info(or lack of) that is just concerning if there isn’t actually a judicial review and it’s just the IP holders sounding the alarm.
I agree, I set my grandparents doors up on a timer, if its still open at 11 PM it auto closes both doors. I’ve got the ping a few times now saying “emergency door schedule activated” meaning that they were open and had not been closed prior.
