You could use apache to create a webdav share. I bet there’s a pre built container for it.

Webdav is really underrated, imo.

Really old CPUs (486 or earlier) lack the computing power to do SSL at any decent speed. So you’re limited to serving http, gopher, nntp, or telnet. Maybe IRC.

You could have a modern computer handle the SSL connection and proxy requests through to the antique but some of the purity of the thing is lost by doing that.

To clarify - we’ve had that setting for a long time and it won’t be automatically changed on existing instances unless an admin chooses to. I’ve just changed the default of it for new instances (of which there are much less, lately).

It’s the easiest way to stop scrapers, way easier than getting Anubis or fail2ban working properly. Unfortunately it comes at the cost of walling off an instance but most instances are for individual / small group use so it’s an ok default to have.

Scrapers are not federating.

Activitypub could be used to harvest content on a ongoing basis but to get all the historical data, which is the stuff they want, they can’t use activitypub. Lemmy only has the last 50 posts in each community’s outbox.

In the latest version, PieFed defaults to a mode which requires a login to browse. An admin needs to tick a box to expose themselves to scrapers.

If Lemmy automatically generated a list of related communities then mods wouldn’t need to manually maintain a list.

Very nice!

Yuu might want to move Pixelfed down into the Photos clump.

I think so. He meant the capitalists, who are his customers, want to own their means of production. Not rent it from their competitors or suppliers.

First time I’ve seen that phrase used that way but it works.

Have a Quake 3 Arena tournament.

Here’s the segment:

He seemed pretty coherent to me. At times clearly thinking faster than his mouth can keep up but really no big deal.

Pretty interesting how he’s fully accepted that there will be “a wealth tax” as a result of a backlash against AI. And how the CEOs he knows are “livid” about how totally useless AI is even after they jumped in boots and all, lol

If the ms office apps don’t run on Linux you might be able to use them through a browser, just like Google docs.

I played this in the arcade a lot!

Man, some of those ports are rough. The Atari ST was pretty amazing for an 8-bit computer, though.

It depends on your company.

If you are running public-facing code, security is going to become a huge deal in coming months. So use AI to find all the security holes in your stuff before the hackers do.

If you have lots of databases and APIs for internal use, create a MCP server so agents can do anything with your data and APIs.

If your data is even a little sensitive and you don’t want to send it all to the USA (read up on the CLOUD act), look into running models locally and the hardware investments you’ll need to make.

If Bluesky’s throttling you can stop your entire app from running, it’s not decentralized.

‘Successful’ in the very narrow sense that it would be legal to do so. But not successful in actually changing anyone’s politics or the material conditions that give rise to the AfD.

The other day I made a machine learning model that classifies images as either ‘a certain type of undesirable image’ (no, not porn) or ‘any other image’. It is 96.4% accurate and takes 14 ms to classify one image (using CPU only - with a GPU it could be 5x - 10x faster).

I plan to offer this as an API service that social media networks can use to filter posts.

I’m rollicking through Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Die Nazis, die.

$5 on steam, works on Linux.

I’d hook up https://easydmarc.com/ for a couple of months to monitor deliverability, just while you’re bedding it in.
