You can still buy tetraethyllead for classic cars that need it.
IMO the XZ thing shows the strength of open source, some turbo pedant found the backdoor within about an hour of it being released because a program took 0.3 seconds longer to start. That wouldn’t be possible in a closed source app that can’t be debugged properly.
Isn’t it open source?
Yes.
In the upper corner of the flag nearest the flagpole, the wider diagonal white stripe should be above the red diagonal stripe. If the red is above the wider white stripe the flag is upside-down.

Even our own government screws it up though https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2020/03/05/union-flag-has-flying-outside-parliament-upside/
Flying the US flag upside down on ship is apparently a distress signal.
(Flying the UK flag upside down just makes people think you’re an idiot.)
It doesn’t say what license they are going to use, so it may not be open source. The wording is very weaselly.
There are some font sharing groups/pages on VK. They often focus on fonts with Cyrillic support for obvious reasons, which I assume requires a certain level of completeness a web rip doesn’t have.
To be fair namecoin and emerDNS were/are trying to solve the centralised bit of the web, the DNS root.
Web 3.0 > Web3.
(ActivityPub is part of Web 3.0)
doesn’t have to be red or blue, it could be microwave or x ray
Technically those wouldn’t be LASER (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.) but MASER or XASER.
I’m probably the only asshole left that cares about this though.
On Lemmy? Convert them to mp4 and upload it as a video.
I considered setting up a raspberry pi with a 4g hat because of that.
Did this get federated into !lemmy@lemmy.ml from mastodon just because of the @lemmy tag?
That’s pretty cool.
It’s a hookup app, I think it’s optional (I don’t use it myself), but most people are going to want to know that.
Lemmy default UI is worst. It doesn’t even show the link. You have to click it’s title to see the video but it’s visually not a link.
If you click the thumbnail (or the arrow where the thumbnail normally is) it in-lines the video. So it works, it’s just not the most intuitive behaviour.
What exactly is the legal definition of “social media” anyway?
Personally I don’t consider lemmy or reddit to be social media, they’re more like several forums in a trench-coat.
but set them to pull such numbers in for each post/comment mirrored from another instance.
I think the asynchronous way lemmy handles creating a comment/post and then sending it would make this difficult.
Pretty sure I did this accidentally years ago on a macbook that was dual booting windows.
