Madison on why she quit
  • This seems like a weird interpretation, at least based on the paraphrasing above. There's no implicit anti union sentiment, it's just acknowledging he has an obligation to be a good steward for his employees?

  • What law or rule exists because of you? What happened?
  • No nested SQL queries allowed.

    Edit: it was for a built in query language to populate dashboards (think Jira JQL meets Domo).

    I had some inefficient SQL queries that meant we had to put some guardrails around user input so others didn't take down prod like I did

  • Linux for Microsoft Surface devices. It is reality!
  • I've had nothing but issues with Microsoft hardware... Even excluding Xbox stuff, my SP4 had major issues with video corruption and hard freezes. Multiple RMA attempts came back defective or damaged, even the first party folio keyboard went bad. These were widespread defects and once warranty was up I was sol.

    The only thing that somewhat extended its life before it went full spicy pillow was putting Linux Mint on it with some kernel patches.

    Thank God this community exists, but I'll never buy another surface product as long as I live.

  • What's the point of buying new phones every years?
  • Absolutely this. I'm cheap AF and continued to do this, but Samsung has stopped these incentives so now I'm "stuck" on my s21 ultra.

    I use quotes because it's an awesome phone and 2 years later it's still crushing everything I throw at it so I have no qualms with hanging onto it.

  • With the recent hack, there is now irrefutable proof of malicious actors trying to break Lemmy and steal user accounts. Please be careful about entering your password into random Lemmy apps!
  • The difference is that when you buy a vps you aren't handing over all your access creds to random developers.

    And "harming lemmy" may be an intent that sparks a DDoS but there are other intentions that should make users wary. Harvesting creds of people who reuse passwords across accounts is an easy example that could have more serious implications to the individual user.

  • [feature request] settings per account

    I know this is probably a large lift but it'd be great to have different themes, views, etc configured at the account level.

    Themes would let me immediately see which account I'm posting as. Some accounts on different instances are more for discussion, others for consuming media, so different layouts are better.

    How to argue reasonably
  • This pyramid is mostly bad argumentative techniques, i.e. arguing in bad faith.

    It does very little to explain the structure of good faith arguments, lumping them in together at the top...

  • Let's see your themes!

    I have no ability to color coordinate but would love to get some inspiration, especially from anyone using the AMOLED theme.

    Who's got a slick colorway to share??

    [bug report] after posting, back button closes app

    It seems like whatever intent is spawned after creating a thread doesn't respect the back button behavior. When I click Android's back button, it just closes the app rather than taking me back to the community or even prompting me to confirm I wish to exit.

    [feature request] opening image marks post as read

    It'd be great if we had an option where opening an image or link marks a thread as being read.

    As it stands, I have to open comments and many posts I just want to see the meme and move on.

    [feature request] incognito keyboard?

    This would be a nice setting so my keyboard doesn't learn the names of certain communities.

    I know Sync did it for reddit when not signed into a profile, any way to have it configurable?

    feature request: Settings per account

    Is there any way that we could treat accounts as separate profiles so to speak? I think with Lemmy, a lot of us may have multiple accounts on different instances. That is sort of necessitated because of federation. It would be good if those different accounts, which may be intended to consume different types of content, could have different preferences for styles and layouts and such

    Starting a seedbox

    With everything happening with Netflix and Max it's time to cut bait.

    I was looking at renting a seedbox for torrents. I have a pretty old Synology I use for local streaming but it's too old to run Plex or even vpn properly without mucking about at the os layer.

    How do people get stuff off their seedbox? Do they just manually download stuff when it's done downloading? Do they stream directly, as some appear to support jellyfin and Plex? Do they use rsync or something to automate transfers?

    Redundant communities across instances

    As a new reddit exile, I may be misunderstanding this.

    In theory something like a !gaming community could crop up on multiple large instances, especially during the mass exodus while instances are getting hammered with spikes in volume.

    If that's the case, we'll have fragmented communities across instances. Is there any way besides subscribing to each of them to combine them into a sort of multi-reddit type aggregation? Or is this considered a temporary (albeit important to adoption) problem during the crazy stages?
