Well, digital piracy.

But ye olde Black Beard and the modern Somalian type is very much theft.

Great recipe! I didn’t have any cheese so I substituted for peanut butter, and thought some jelly might go good with it too so I added that in as well. My oven only goes to 1500 so I put it in the freezer instead.

It’s a lot easier to shovel a foot of snow thrice than it is to shovel 3 feet of snow that’s compacted, melted down a bit, formed a freezing layer on top and ice on the bottom, and now your shovel is broke because you were trying to pry up that ice with 60lb of snow on top of it.

But at that point you say fuck it and just pay a guy to swing by with his plow and throw out some salt.

I appreciate the sentiment though.

They have a name. They are called communities. A user subscribes to communities.

Giving Nazis a platform is fucking cringe.

If you’re not familiar with it, windows now has native support to run Linux via the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2). It can integrate pretty well into your environment as well, like pushing vscode applications to run in the Subsystem. It apparently supports gui as well although I haven’t tried setting that up myself.

“I want someone else to pay for hosting and maintaining an instance for me, to admin it and moderate its communities, but when they make a choice I disagree with that’s not okay.”

Well, good thing there’s a way for you to stand up your own instance that you can federate or defederate whatever instances you want.

Yes, it is very much a terrible idea. If you aren’t prepared to properly operate an instance, outside of making one for solely your own use, don’t.

IPv4 is the old standard of Internet Protocol addresses that you’re probably familiar with (something like 192.168.1.10, although the 192.168.x.x range is actually only private addresses). It’s still used on most devices today but it only supports up to ~4.3 billion addresses and as you can imagine, those addresses have basically run out with all of the various devices and servers and whatever else is connected to the internet. IPv4 is in the process of being replaced by the new (10 27* year old) IPv6, but there are still a lot of old devices and a need to support the old protocol. Making IPv6 available for this server will mean any devices connected to the internet should be able to communicate with the server on this new protocol.

As for DNSSEC, when you go to resolve a a hostname, like lemmy.world, your computer will make a request to a DNS server to figure out what IP address it needs to navigate to in order to access the server. In theory, someone could intercept your DNS request and tell you an address for the server that isn’t actually the address for the server, but rather a malicious host. DNSSEC basically acts as a layer of security to help confirm that information you’re getting on your DNS request is good and true.

How does Redact handle the current API rate limits on Reddit? I’ve been using Power Suite Delete the past few days to purge my footprint and help incentive myself to move on, but every pass consistently has comments that aren’t overwritten because it’s hitting limits and moving on instead of queueing actions.

Also, I’ve noticed apparently not all of my account’s content is listed consistently which is why I’ve been running it for a few days now. Every couple hours a few new posts or comments are shown that were just nowhere to be found before.
