I mean in fairness to the first one, on most systems it is possible to turn wifi back on without turning off airplane mode (there is in-flight wifi after all)

Here’s the official birthday post: https://lemmy.zip/post/17065877
There’s also an overview of the first year at https://yearone.lemmy.zip/
lemmy.zip’s birthday is tomorrow!
Hey wait a minute, this isn’t !theowlhouse@lemmy.world!
The TLD TL;DR is basically that domains don’t come out of nowhere. Just like how you need a lemmy.zip domain to be able to have the subdomains next.lemmy.zip or old.lemmy.zip, in order to have the domain lemmy.zip you must first have someone to run the .zip top-level domain (in this case, Google)
Like Forester mentioned in the other comment, you can have any combination of letters you want as a TLD, you just have to set up and manage all the infra for it (or find somebody else to do it for you)
Easier to just round up lol
And then you get a call from a Swedish Wikipedia editor and they say:
February 30 was a day that happened in Sweden, 1712.[4] This occurred because, instead of changing from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar by omitting a block of consecutive days, as had been done in other countries, the Swedish Empire planned to change gradually by omitting all leap days from 1700 to 1740, inclusive. Although the leap day was omitted in February 1700, the Great Northern War began later that year, diverting the attention of the Swedes from their calendar so that they did not omit leap days on the next two occasions; 1704 and 1708 remained leap years.[5]
To avoid confusion and further mistakes, the Julian calendar was restored in 1712 by adding an extra leap day, thus giving that year the only known actual use of February 30 in a calendar. That day corresponded to February 29 in the Julian calendar and to March 11 in the Gregorian calendar.[5][6] The Swedish conversion to the Gregorian calendar was finally accomplished in 1753, when February 17 was followed by March 1.[5]

I did not include any //es with the https:, but I put just the one usual pair with the ttps:. Oh. Hmm. Yes, it appears I have indeed Brainfucked the link
(try now)

Haven’t had any interactions with ST.W personally, but I feel tempted to share the testimony of someone who begs to differ (@Stamets@lemmy.world of !tenforward@lemmy.world): https://lemmy.zip/post/9940581
There’s always a relevant xkcd:
(actually quite a few in this case…)
Huh. I know Masto doesn’t do Markdown formatting, but I think that would’ve worked here. I guess escaping that does make more sense though
The three -verse terms I’ve heard in use are:
Isn’t the literal cannon fire of 1812 Overture only 𝆑𝆑𝆑𝆑? I think a true 24-𝆑 would make a shockwave strong enough to level a city block!
I hope you’re making this the last song of the concert, because as a percussionist I am punching a hole through the drum if you give me fortissississississississississississississississississimo like that
We can do this the easy way, of the hard way: Either you ask nicely and I give you money, or you try to mug me, get beaten up, and then I give you money anyway.
So what’ll it be?
old.lemmy.zip as well
Tldr this isn’t really anything new for Mastodon. If you link to a website in your profile, you could verify you own that website (or are a representative of it, ie writer for news or a blog) by having that site link back to your profile with a special rel="me"
attribute. The new thing is that Threads now also supports these links, so linking your Threads account on your Mastodon account can show you have verified that you own that Threads account. This also works with any other site that supports rel=me links for verification.
I agree with all y’all that Threads is EEE, but I think this particular feature is a really good thing and I’d love to see more sites implement this as a really simple way to cross-verify (ownership of) accounts
This isn’t entirely true. Verification on Mastodon isn’t verifying your account for a shiny badge, it’s verifying ownership of sites that you link on your profile. If you add a link to a website, and that website links back to your profile, Mastodon will show that one link as verified. But that link needs a special rel="me"
attribute to count for verification, which is what Threads now supports.
I am absolutely sure Threads is an attempt at EEE, but this specific feature is a good thing imo. I’d love to see more sites support rel=me links for simple cross-platform account (ownership) verification
Finally, a use for my 1-bit bloom filter!
