It's so rare for me to have to use the modulo operator I'm actually excited when I come across a situation where I can.

Not sure what version you're on, but the "compact" view in Liftoff now (I'm on version 0.10.9) is actually compact:

Just added it to the massive Google graveyard next to Stadia, wave, hangouts, plus, music, etc etc

I am shocked and appalled that Google Reader didn't get called out in this list and is relegated to the "etc" category.

It deserves more than "etc."

We've known about the principle since 1856, and have known about its possible impact since 1896.

I just wished the Lemmy API docs were better lol.

Finnegans Wake makes more sense than Lemmy API docs. Even calling it "documentation" is a stretch.

I literally had to clone the Lemmy git repo and read the source code to find the implementation of an API endpoint and see how it worked for a script that I was writing.

Is this really that useful though?

It's very useful if you don't use a password manager and/or reuse passwords.

The most useful part about it to me is the API. You can tie it in to Active Directory to blacklist all hashes that appear in any breach, plus expire/force a password change if any user on your domain uses a password that has been in a breach. It completely eliminates that vector from threat actors immediately.

So yeah, I would call this intensely useful.

I've been using nothing but Linux at home and work for 20 years and it's news to me that these words are not equal synonyms.

The only people that get upset over it are those whose entire personality are based on superficial bullshit like this because they don't have a personality, or just want to feel superior to someone else, or both.

I've been using Linux professionally for a couple of decades, and using it period since it was hard to install and Slackware came in the mail on ~50 floppy disks. There is not enough "Get off my lawn" in the world for those people.

I'll call the path container whatever I damned well please.

Some places are insanely polluted to the point where you wonder how a whole company could be so braindead and essentially poison themselves.

"That's the future guy's problem, my problem is making money."

No need to wonder. That's how.

Places like that never learn their lesson until The Event™ happens. At my last place, The Event™ was a derecho that knocked out power for a few days, and then when it came back on, the SAN was all kinds of fucked. On top of that, we didn't have backups for everything because they didn't want to pay for more storage. They were losing like $100K+ every hour they were down.

The speed at which they approved all-new hardware inside a colocation facility after The Event™ was absolutely hilarious, I'd never seen anything approved that quickly.

Trust me, they're going to keep putting it off until you have your own version of The Event™, and they'll deny that they ever disregarded the risk of it happening in the first place, even though you have years' worth of emails saying "If we don't do X, Y will occur." And when when Y occurs, they'll scream "Oh my God, Y has occurred, no one could have ever foreseen this!"

It'll happen. Wait and watch.

The first time I ever touched Double Ds was in vim.

The ones that are confirmed have an orange checkmark on them.

This has very strong "I'm not touching you!" energy and I'm all about it.
