Seems he’s revealing that he is either Bruce Wayne or Bane. As they’re the only two to ever escape from the pit; historically speaking.

Probably not exactly what you’re looking for, but for my personal use I just set up a repo in my git forge (gitea in my case) with a bunch of markdown files in various folders and a Hugo theme.

Every time I want to update a document I can click the link at the bottom of the “Wiki” page and edit it in Gitea’s WYSIWYG editor. Similar process if I want to make a new document. When I save the changes I have a CI job (native to Gitea/Github) that uses Hugo to build the markdown docs into a full website and sync it to a folder on one of my servers where it’s picked up by a web server.

Sounds complicated when I type it all out, but the only thing that I can reasonably expect to be a deal breaker is the Hugo software, of which there are archived versions, and even if there wasn’t Hugo’s input is just markdown, so I can repurpose however I see fit.

You could probably do something similar with other SSG’s or even use Github’s pages feature, though that does add a failure point if/when they decide to sunset or monetize the feature.

Just this one https://wallhaven.cc/w/2y2wg6

Have it hard-coded in my config so I’m less likely to faff around with my wallpaper instead of doing something productive. Less cognitive load IMO

Just another option. If you know already or are willing to learn how to write documents in markdown format (like how lemmy supports), and learn some of infrastructure set-up and it can be between free and very cheap to have a blog on something like netlify.app, github pages or others. There are plenty of static site generators out there that can be both relatively easy and very powerful.

I currently have a private blog set up on a cloud provider that just takes markdown documents and builds those along with some templates and webpage code to create a site like this. Although I have mine hosted on a VPS with my own domain, it’s completely possible to use something like github pages, netlify.app, etc. for that. They’re both free afaik to host on, but if you want to pay for a dedicated service they are usually between 2 and 5 USD per month.

Edit: The option above isn’t activitypub software, sorry for not realizing that immediately, but it is federated in a way I suppose.

Raft by Stephen Baxter. Part of the Xeelee sequence series.

Currently on book 2: Timelike Infinity and I’m liking it quite a bit.

Agree completely. In the grand scheme of things the damage that appears to have happened here is small potatoes, but it brought attention to the vulnerability so it was patched quickly. Going forward now, the authors and contributors to the project might be a bit more focused on hardening the software against these types of vulnerabilities. Pen testing is invaluable on wide user-base internet accessible platforms like this because it makes better, more secure software. Unfortunately this breech wasn’t under the “ethical pen testing” umbrella but it sure as hell brought the vulnerability to the mindshare of everyone with a stake in it, so I view it as a net win.

Never go into business with Oracle when anything of value is on the line

Truer words have not been spoken.

That’s not even considering that you’re not going to be able to talk to a rep about it, or appeal that claw back in any way. Hell they’ll even terminate your whole account without warning, not just the VM. If I found out the admin of the Lemmy instance I’m using was hosting it on Oracle I would delete my profile immediately without a second thought.

There’s always a catch. Oracle has and will claw back that free allowance unless you meet specific criteria or move to a pay-as-you-go tier with a cc on file with a $100 authorization charge, and even then they may. Ask me how I know lol

Oh I’m well aware lol. I’m a sh.itjust.works user as well and have been seeing the controversy that sub brought about the last few days.

Assuming they’re generally on the same instance ::cough EH cough:: others can just defederate if they want. Those that are harassing and spreading hate speech on mixed servers can be blocked, banned from communities, or the instance in question if egregious enough.

Edit: Am I resurrecting a 3 year old post rn?

I was a bit late one the social media train, isn’t that where the “Eternal September” thing came from?

This has to be bait, right?

Rust > PHP

There is. See here. IDK how good the API documentation is (haven’t checked), but it should be linked in that page.

I’m of two minds about it. On one hand it would give Lemmy users more content to interact with which is good, on the other you’re directing to where we just came from and increasing engagement there which is bad. So I’m on the fence. If someone wants to do it it’s worth the experiment IMO, but I’m largely not going to be clicking that Reddit link unless its compelling. If it’s linked to an external site aside from reddit I’m all for it though, so long as it doesn’t get out of hand.

That’s co cool! Please consider posting updates when you get your controller built, I’m sure many would love to see it!

Oh shit, that’s awesome! Are you planning to go with the actual arcade buttons?

I played through that once back in the day. I remember really enjoying it too; I guess that’ll be going on my replay list. Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up. Just forked the project and hopefully it should be relatively simple to change the API key and rebuild the app. That being said, keeping up to date with the upstream changes might prove more difficult

Damn that’s sad, I knew of the joy-con drift issue but the shoulder button issue is new to me. Wish there was some alternative I could think of to help besides new joy-cons which IIRC are pretty expensive. Sorry!. Steam deck hardware is awesome for what it’s worth, very repairable, relatively cheap replacement parts, good performance for the price, and you can go very far down the rabbit-hole with software if you are into that sort of thing. Limited exclusively to switch emulation I wouldn’t recommend it right now at least, but if you’re looking for a more general handheld gaming platform it can’t be beat IMO.
