mlmym
I’m not familiar with what this is
mlmym is the old-reddit-like frontend discussed in this thread.
If you open https://old.lemmy.zip/, there is a “show images” button next to the nav links for the different sort orders. Unfortunately, it doesn’t actually work there because lemmy.zip has the image proxy enabled, which the old version of mlmym they’re running does not support.
In listings? mlmym already has that. I see the button also exists on comment pages on reddit, but that’d be less useful on lemmy where inline images are already expanded by default.
Keep in mind that rystaf/mlmym has been last updated years ago. old.lemmy.world uses the FHF’s fork, which has had a few fixes made to it.
I actually have a fork of that fork at mschae23/mlmym which is significantly different (in terms of new features and bugfixes) from the others by now. In fact, this is what’s deployed by your instance at old.lemmy.today :)
Though it unfortunately seems to be having issues with rate limits at the moment.
edit: This should be fixed now!
PACTs will let websites “with strong knowledge of ‘personhood’” issue anonymous tokens that browser users and designated bots can present at other websites, […]
This sounds like another attempt at what google already tried with “web environment integrity”.
In the settings, you can set your “discussion languages”. Any posts and comments in languages you didn’t select here won’t be shown to you.
GDPR wasn’t what introduced cookie banners, that was the ePrivacy directive which came before the GDPR. Either way, I’d argue cookie banners are an act of malicious compliance with both of these, as I’m pretty sure they were intended to reduce usage of tracking / analytics / other non-required cookies altogether. The annoying banners are, in my opinion, an effort to make people angry at the EU instead of the ad companies.
As far as I know (and I’m not 100 % sure), no. You don’t even need to inform users that you use functional cookies. Most likely because these work for the person using your website, not against them (persisting the session, settings, and so on).
I was just being pedantic and corrected what is meant by the term “free software”, not actually arguing for or against what you were saying :)
Yes, of course, a project being paid will mean that a lot fewer people will actually use it. I wouldn’t say nobody, though. As an example, there’s the DeArrow browser addon which is free, but costs $1 once (with easy ways to circumvent that payment). Yet many people have paid for it anyway.
As for curl, the article says that the 23 sponsors you mentioned are only corporate sponsors. There are hundreds of people donating to the curl project, which is probably still unreasonably low, but not as dire as “only 23” would suggest. Obviously each of these donates a much lower amount, so it may still not amount to much (but I don’t know enough to say that).
But in the end, as I said, you’re probably mostly right, there would be very few users of free software if it was paid. Although there are also lots of users of proprietary paid software, so who knows.
The GPL licenses were all written by the free software foundation for the GNU project. But that doesn’t make it less worthwhile to contribute to this cause, too :)
Could use subdomains to specify it further, like v4.bysa.cc for all CC BY-SA 4.0 works
What makes you say that? As far as I can tell, the only actual downside of it is having to type longer addresses sometimes, but one should really just use the DNS for that. And a bigger address space was needed. Everything else seems better or at least simpler. Autoconfiguration (SLAAC), only one loopback address (which is shorter than any of IPv4’s loopback addresses), subnetting, no need for NAT, proper support for multiple addresses per interface…
In practice, most problems with IPv6 probably just come from bad support for it in software. That means they should be improved, not that IPv6 was a failure. Also check that you’re not blocking ICMP6 traffic in a firewall or similar (or at least allow the things SLAAC and neighbor discovery need).
Oh, they switched to Source 2? I thought P2:CE was based on the CS:GO branch of the engine, which would still be Source 1. But I haven’t kept up to date with what they were doing, so maybe I’m wrong here.
That’s one of YouTube’s anti-adblocking measures. As far as I know, it only happens on a “cold” load (like when opening a YouTube video by going to its URI directly). You can avoid it by navigating to it from within the YT interface.
Funnily enough, the time you have to wait is still shorter than the ad you would’ve had to watch.
We do, AI companies just don’t respect it.
“Nah”? You seem to be agreeing
Can’t be too sure about that: https://sh.itjust.works/post/57524423
The whole patent system should just be abolished. And if we can’t achieve that, at least software patents.
Exactly. The NoSuchMethodError and codec stuff is actually a bit of a red herring here. The actual problem is that the user loaded the mod in an unsuppported Minecraft version.
class_5699.method_65313 resolves to Codecs.listOrSingle. Would that really have been any more useful?
They are, I believe the commission has also been investigating apple for this. But it might also be considered a different situation since, as far as I understood, google was fined for pressuring other manufacturers into pre-installing google search and chrome on their devices.
Well, WebKit, not safari (you could say safari is apple’s WebKit skin, I guess), but you’re right. The DMA was supposed to fix this and force them to allow other browser engines, but I don’t think much has changed in this regard. I’m not aware of any browsers not using WebKit on iOS so far, at least.
