SSH keys stolen by stream of malicious PyPI and npm packages

  • Do you prefer digital or physical books?
  • For the books I love and want to read over and over, physical. For the books I want to read once and maybe reference from time to time, digital all the way. My e-reader makes digital books a breeze to read, and I'm actually at the point where it's 5GB of storage isn't enough for my library.

    Looking for shared storage with access without loging in
  • I think your best bet in this case is google drive. Most people have a google account, and if they don't, I believe it's possible to set it up in a way that it will let them upload anyway. I don't think you're getting out of the account requirement, outside of you setting up an anonymous ftp server in a vps or something.

    Beavers are self replicating terraformers. Its time to leave them alone in Wisconsin.

    Google says AI systems should be able to mine publishers’ work unless companies opt out, turning copyright law on its head
  • Except, what it produces is very similar or identical to some copyrighted works, licensed under the LGPL, like in this case. You don't have to copy a whole program to plagiarize someone

  • Google says AI systems should be able to mine publishers’ work unless companies opt out, turning copyright law on its head
  • I think this largely boils down to the time scales required. A person copying your work has a minimum amount of time it takes them to do that, even when it's just copy and paste. An LLM can copy thousands of different developer's code, for instance, and completely launder the license. That's not ok. Why would we allow machines to commit fraud when we don't allow people to?

We’ve made it clear that these bills are terrible ideas, but Congress is now considering packaging them together—po...

    Lemmy Instance Not Syncing Correctly

  • As a webmaster myself, I've noticed a small number of users with repeating seemingly generated names, all with the same or similar answer to the registration screening question. I'd be curious if you could release the database of usernames and screening question answers. I'd bet other Lemmy admins would benefit from any analysis done on that database. TTP.

    Linked Privacy Policy available on all pages to comply with GDPR · Issue #1347 · LemmyNet/lemmy-ui

    Hey, just went through a few different checklists, and discovered that Lemmy does not meet GDPR requirements for notifying users for how servers handle the data. I've brought up this request on github, and I hope to get it fixed soon, but in the meantime I've compiled a list of EU address blocks and intend to add them to my firewall. Just thought you all should know.

    PSA: Your hostnames in config.hjson need to be the names of your docker containers

    This doesn't seem to be included in the documentation, but when configuring the hostnames of your containers for pictrs, email, and database, you need to set those hostnames to the hostnames of your docker containers. Note that the line below should remain unchanged.

    hostname: "{{ domain }}"
