Let's see... Just today, in their presentation for the next patch, a child character got a new outfit, and a teaser that the next archon (god) is a kid - again. xD

I sometimes wonder wtf they're doing, ngl...

arm64 image for 0.17.4 missing (drachennetz.com)
 

I just wanted to update to the latest version, and noticed that there does not seem to be a tag for 0.17.4.

Any particular reason or should I use a specific tag in my docker-compose.yml instead?

Thanks!

This is quite neat. Been using DaddyLive to watch Bundesliga with Kodi, wrapped in some random extension... Rising Tides, I think it was?

No, just the way the Fediverse works. :)

...and, to go on a bit of a tangent, how the internet "used to" work. You still see the remnant with E-Mails; they can go between servers. Most other services have become locked and centralized now. There was a short bit of time where MSN, AIM and YIM were practically compatible with one another due to sharing many of the same XMPP protos.

Personally I am happy to see this again, been too long ^^

Thoughts on Nostr? in c/fediverse@lemmy.ml
[–] ingwiephoenix@drachennetz.com 1 points 1 year ago

Here's a brief: Instead of tweeting to one server, you tweet to many. When you and another person share the same server, they see you. Those servers (relays) can also be broadcasting your messages to other relays, so you might end up indirectly sharing servers as well. Because there are so many servers that potentially sync data, it is supposed to be "uncensorable". Each user is identified by a public key, and signs their message with a private key.

As for the SN aspect; you follow people. Hence the Twitter comparison.

Now what I did not mention on purpose: You can do microtransactions in bitcoins. And if you read that and thought "oh god no" - then yeah, exactly. xD

So, how do I buy a cola? (drachennetz.com)
 

I have spent a good amount of time gawking at Nostr and the posts going on there - with all the zapping and whatnot. Think they just hit a millionth zap or something?

Anyway. Whenever I hear people talk about crypto, I just walk away. Because so far, whenever I read an article about the usecases of Bitcoin or anyothercoin, it is filled with "[could] be used for". But "could" is not "can".

So, I would like to ask here: How do I buy a Cola with bitcoin?

Imagine that all I have is an Android phone, a few Euros in my bank and an absolute thirst - right now. What do I do to pay with Bitcoin to buy me that Cola?

(I know the described situation is a little extreme. Basically, I want to know the fastest, most "convenient" way it is done. Not could - but can.)

OK mateys, let's talk about direct links. in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Was thinking the same - this looks like a prime usecase for IPFS, honestly.

Thoughts on Nostr? (drachennetz.com)
 

The past few days, I have been heavily experimenting with Nostr as another alternative to centralized services. And, I am honestly impressed by just how good it is. The protocol is quite simple and works very fast.

However, the almost constant bugging of the integration with idontcarecoins is a little annoying. Easy to ignore, but still always there.

What do you think about Nostr? Have you tried it?

What if we tried designing C a second time? in c/programmerhumor@lemmy.ml

C: What if you used emojis for pointer (*) and deref (&) signs?

Good call! That said, I am still going to have to copy-paste a lot of community handles... Oh well, it works for now, I guess.

Thanks for the idea!

When I add [!privacy@lemmy.ml](/c/privacy@lemmy.ml) into my search field, it doesn't show anything - in fact, it ends up telling me that there are no results. I have to then go into the Communities tab again, and hope it shows up there.

I can see it doing work as I watch the logs. But this is really a little weird/frustrating. I hope this sees improvement eventually! =)
