Not sure if this is a productive solution.
You’d just end up with the exact same posts, but now coming from accounts that are x days/weeks/months old.
Don’t get me wrong, spam and low effort are absolutely an issue, but I’m not sure how this would fix it.
Your restrictions on excluding the fediverse are nonsensical.
Well, unless it came back in the last 25 minutes, it’s working fine in Western Australia.
Talk to the building owner.
If you get this wrong you’ll likely cause havoc across the whole building.
Interesting.
My native phone app also supports call recording, but it needs to be manually activated each time.
When I did events, I’d wear two pairs of socks, thin pair against my feet, then thick pair over the top of that.
I’ve also used moulded sole inserts from time to time.
On a positive note, a Dev responded to that post indicating that the behaviour of the platform is being reviewed.
Between the clickbait, YouTube “enhancements”, exploding AI slop videos and the atrocious search facility, the platform is rapidly becoming completely unusable for finding relevant information when you’re looking for answers.
As an entertainment platform it’s forcing creators to make long form content and making viewers sit through more and more low quality content.
It’s evolving, but I’m pretty sure it’s heading towards extinction, rather than greatness.
How would you suggest I respond in the future?
We have a person, claiming that CUPS doesn’t work and they now uninstall it on every installation.
There is no context, no data, no information that suggests what the issue is, what they tried, when this occurred, on which platform, under which conditions.
In other words, the user was essentially saying “CUPS sux”.
Having used Linux as my main system for over 25 years, that sentiment did not match my own experience, does not help anyone, not me, not the user and not the OP who was trying to solve a problem, let alone anyone else reading along.
I responded accordingly.
This has not been my experience … at … all.
Perhaps it would be helpful to discover what exactly doesn’t work for you and fix that, rather than remove CUPS because one time it didn’t work for you seven years ago.
You could print to CUPS from the other devices and potentially bypass all those shenanigans.
Also, CUPS has a PDF printer which saves you from even heating up your printer at all … I haven’t had a printer in my life for over 25 years.
It uses a security feature of Linux called cgroups or control groups to limit access to resources at a kernel level.
It’s used all over the place, including as the basis of Docker.
There’s a common but persistent misconception that Docker is like running a virtual machine. This is understandable but incorrect.
A better way to think of it is as a security wrapper around an untrusted process.
If you look at your running processes whilst a container is running, you’ll see the processes inside the container running on your “host” machine - remember, it’s not a host - guest situation.
There is no relationship between the user inside the container, unless you start mapping the UID and GID.
The only exception to this is the root user which shares the UID/GID with the actual root user.
See: https://www.howtogeek.com/devops/why-processes-in-docker-containers-shouldnt-run-as-root/
Edit: I suspect, but don’t know for sure, that the root user inside the container is actually the same user as the one running the Docker process, which is typically the root user on the “host”.

And we’re still stuck with its aftermath in that search engines require quotes rather than a + for requiring words, which they now ignore whenever the mood strikes.
Why?
Because some fuckwit at Google decided that the + was reserved for Google+ search results.

Pointer Acceleration Profile and Sensitivity should be able to be adjusted to suit your requirements.
That makes no sense.
You can create a Lemmy or Mastodon account in moments with nothing more than a web browser.
Is that the entire fediverse, no.
Is Facebook one thing, also no.
