Get it done now so you don’t have to worry about it later.

This is completely illegal in the United States, and may also be in other countries.

If you live in the US and a collector comes after you for your parents’ debt, tell them to bite rocks (or if you can afford to, rake them over the coals in court).

“California bigger, Oregon doesnt matter!”

-Chewget, 2025

Its been critical for us Oregonians with our massive fires the last two years.

I find it odd that it’s only a headline when it affects California.

Oh hey, it’s literally requiring the government agencies to do the exact same thing we have been doing in the corporate space these past several years.

WhatsApp uses XMPP under the hood, but doesn’t federate with anyone.

Bluesky follows a model they’re more familiar and therefore more comfortable with, even if its the same model that got them where they are in the first place. Bluesky’s federation protocol doesnt matter so much as the fact that Bluesky is a singular silo that all Bluesky users can see all content and other users in does. Bluesky self-hosted sites will be a ‘nice addition’ that most users won’t have to care or think about.

I love lemmy and fediverse stuff, but even I am stressed out at the idea of having to make sure I have some kind of replication across different instances, having to keep track of who federates (or doesn’t) with who, and always wondering if my home instance is “the right one.”

Must be your region, all of the McDonalds here in my state and the two I travel to next to me seem to be able to get it right, actually talk to me, the screens almost always work (almost), and the orders are almost always right (almost). I’ve never had raw fries, those are usually the best part of the meal. I don’t usually eat it unless I am roadtripping, but that’s been happening a lot recently.

None of this is to invalidate your experience, mind you. What region are you in, so we know where not to get McDonalds at?

Please stop using UserBenchmark, they are dishonest to the point where they started throwing Intel CPU models scores out of whack negatively just to skew AMD results.

Why does Lemmy not prevent duplicate links, at least within a time window?

Just your average NieR boss fight.

Zero-party state let’s gooo

How’d they taste?

Oh yea definitely, I know this pain very well

File headers, magic bits, all sorts of stuff. Plus you can (and they do) try to load common file types, so if a PNG isn’t loading correctly, it fails the test.
