That’s a fair idea, I didn’t realize it was an option to share customized KDE setups but that definitely makes sense.

If it interests you, try it. If it doesn’t interest you, don’t install it.

Not all software projects need to be developed by teams of people with published release cycles. There are lots of passion projects out there.

There’s also no accountability for companies and it has been like that for way too long. Look at Starbucks… some stores unionized so they just closed the stores and fired everyone. Completely illegal, but no consequences for the company. They succeeded in scaring the rest of the baristas, though, so mission accomplished.

This is a meme community, so it’s time to get serious!

This happened around 6 or 7 years ago. The company in question only has two work groups that are unionized – Pilots and Dispatchers. Mechanics, Flight Attendants, Ground Service, etc. are not unionized.

Flight Attendants have attempted to unionize many times, but the vote always fails.

The poster included in this post was for Ramp workers – the people who load baggage, marshal the planes into the gate, fill the potable water, etc. That vote ultimately failed, but these posters were only a small reason why. In my opinion, the biggest reason that other work groups don’t want to unionize (they absolutely can, nothing is stopping them) is profit sharing.

Years ago the pilot union negotiated an extremely excellent profit sharing agreement, and it was negotiated for pilots only. Depending on the amount of profit for the year, employees can expect 10%-%20 of their yearly income paid in a lump sum. The company in question is typically very profitable (I can already see the “profit should be illegal” type of comments coming, but please spare me. I’m just trying to explain how it works).

Over time, other work groups started to catch wind of how much profit sharing pilots were getting. Naturally this sparked talk of unionizing in other work groups, so in order to calm things down the company extended the same profit sharing to all workers, not just the pilots.

This sort of reversed the desire to unionize for a lot of people (I disagree with them, but this is their thinking)… Now if the ramp personnel do unionize, they’d have to negotiate their own profit sharing as they would be excluded from the company wide payout. That’s not to say they couldn’t negotiate to keep the profit sharing, but the fear is real and people don’t want to lose the big fat checks that come almost every year.

In summary, the workers aren’t unionized but the company pays a lot of money to them to keep it that way. Would they be better off long term if they unionized? Yes, of course. But this poster, as ridiculous as it is, is not the only reason that work groups aren’t voting in unions.

Here’s a link to the AFA page talking about it a little bit https://deltaafa.org/news/profit-sharing-2025

Good point, I see that in the definition of access=private.

In Google street view there is a sign which to me appears to support access=private. Maybe you can visit in person to confirm. https://maps.app.goo.gl/cPwdin7944UKLykx7

Edit: On the other side of campus, those signs only prohibit cars and motorized vehicles, so maybe there’s no restriction on pedestrians.

I would consider adding the tag access=private (more detail here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access). If you want to dig deeper and set hours for when it might be acceptable to walk through there, you could probably accomplish that with a conditional restriction https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Conditional_restrictions but then the problem is “does CoMaps respect conditional tags”. I don’t know the exact answer to that, but my AI slop answer is that it should respect access=private, but if you make it conditional (add times, etc.) CoMaps won’t respect those limits.

If I’m looking at the place you’re thinking of, the route that goes through the school yard is of the type “driveway”. Since you’re familiar with that area, you could keep it as a driveway or change it to something more accurate.

Keep in mind once you update OSM, CoMaps will only include it during their next cycle which I think corresponds to app updates.

Those are in the .env file. For docker it’s called .env.docker.

When you pull the repo from git, there’s only env.docker.sample and env.sample. Copy env.docker.sample to .env.docker (don’t forget the period) [you’ve likely already done this if using Docker].

The email settings are absent from the docker sample, but you can find them in the env.sample file. Not sure why that is, but I hope that helps!

Oh cool, really?

Edit: oh it’s not a new one. Still gonna look into it though.

This is a really great new feature. It’s the little things!

I always thought the photos of this place were edited to be more vibrant, but in person it’s stunning. Photos do it justice, and I recommend stopping there if you’re nearby.

That’s another side effect of acetaminophen.

I went to maga.place and it’s so edgy! Some 13 year old is having a good laugh at their own jokes.

I know it’s brand new, but as of right now it seems like a waste of time to even talk about it.

Could be a different story a week from now, but until then who cares.

Ah, maybe the max was 20GB for zip. I’d just do the max available for zip.

Do it again, but select 50GB chunks. This will produce fewer files.

Use immich-go to do the importing.

I can only speak for myself, but no. I just recognize an extremist when I see it.

no you

I’ve never had to restore a backup (yet), but to me this is the best feature of Restic.

I used Duplicati for a while (I think it was Duplicati, not Duplicacy) and although the backups seemed to work, I kept reading about people having trouble during the restore process.

Restic is a slight chore to get set up with the environmental variables, figuring out which directories to “–ignore”, etc… but man once it’s set up it’s just great.

I’m not sure I fully grasp what you want, but Restic is excellent. I use a cronjob to back up on a schedule. It’s command line only. I think there’s a tool to make it a GUI but I haven’t tried it. They have a Docker image available but it’s weird, you have to pass commands to it, it runs, then shuts down when it’s done. I love Docker but that didn’t quite work for me.

I use Backblaze B2 for storage, but any S3 will do. Restic supports all sorts of storage targets.

Credentials and things go in an .env file, or you can put everything into the command line every time.

When it’s time to restore things, you can fricken mount the whole backup you want and browse the files, copy and paste what you need, etc. That part is really cool to me.

Backblaze is $5 or $6 USD per TB per month, so 500GB will be about $36USD a year.

I’m on my computer now, so I’ll type out some more detail if you’re interested. To reiterate, I’m just going off memory and it was two weeks ago so I could very well be making stuff up…

The pre-filled input box asked for each blocked instance to go on a new line, so:

lemmy.world  
lemmy.ml  
lemmygrad.ml  
hexbear.net  
lemmy.zip  
piefed.social  
etc...  

I deleted all of the defaults and that was it. I’ll put a screenshot of the settings page that’s available to admins below:
