I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.
Ask me anything.
Special skills include: Knowing all the “na na na nah nah nah na” parts of the Three’s Company theme.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

They forgot to say “Hold on to your butts” before flipping it. That’s the problem.



That was basically the only use my PSP had before I finally got rid of it. I don’t think I ever actually owned or played a PSP game on it, just emulators.


Yeah. I’m going to keep using it for now but definitely going back and un-reimplementing some things that I moved into the Bun API. Basically just gonna use it as a runtime in place of NodeJS.
I just really liked being able to build and distribute a single binary executable :(


Oh goddamn it. I just started doing projects in Bun and moving some of my older projects to it.
Fuck fuck fuck fuckity fuck fuck.
The full 2025-04 English-only ZIM dump is about 120 GB. That includes reduced-size images as well as all articles. I think the text-only version is in the 40-60 GB range.
There are smaller ZIM versions in the ~4 GB range that would fit on a DVD, but they’re only a subset for specific topics or for a list of the most popular topics.


Pretty much any movie franchise on or after the 3rd film (Transformers, Fast and the Furious, etc). If it’s based on a book series, then the first one after the source material runs out (e.g. Jurassic Park III and later).


Already doing that 😆
It’s one of the rotating banner messages that cycle through feature notes.



If they have remote management/diagnostics for the ONT (sounds like they do, and it’s all but universal for that to be the case), then they can probably see the MAC addresses connected to the ethernet ports. The first three octets of a MAC address are the OUI (organizationally unique identifier) which identify the vendor. There are online tools anyone can use to lookup the vendor for a MAC address.


I had to google “Ozempic face” because I’ve apparently been living under a rock.
In case anyone else was under a rock…
From Cleveland Clinic:



Generally stick with H264 codec in mp4 container and you’ll be fine. Those are supported by pretty much every browser and most apps.
Uploading to your instance is hit or miss depending on how it’s configured or whether it will accept anything other than images. Most people just upload them to catbox and use the link from there in the posts.


The loneliest number


Eh, gotta break at least one egg to make an omelette (or break the seal on the packaging if you’re using egg substitutes) lol.


Sounds like my idea of curating a social platform devoid of “-ist’s and -ism’s” is doomed to failure then lol


Patrick’s Law: If a comment thread on the internet is more than 7 replies deep, it’s a slap-fight that’s best avoided.


So what if Lemmy, Piefed, Mbin, and NodeBB made it so that only the first matching community gets the post?
Not sure about the others, but doesn’t Lemmy do that already (only applies the first matching community)? I’ve been out of the loop for several months, so maybe it changed, but I thought it already did that?


Because ban evasion is an everyday occurrence here. Someone gets banned for being a jackass, and 9 times out of 10, they come right back with a brand new account and come in hot with inflammatory posts and a chip on their shoulder.
Or trolls just troll - spin up new accounts over and over and throw out rage bait or whatever their shtick is just to be a dick.
Combined with the fact that the fediverse’s growth has been a bit stagnant lately, when a bunch of new accounts suddenly pop up, they’re rightly met with suspicion until they’ve established themselves as being here with good intentions.
Not saying new accounts should be ostracized, but given the context of the current state of the fediverse, being suspicious of them is warranted.


Probably power banks. I pretty much only buy Anker these days because I’ve had too many cheap/no-name ones just fail, turn into spicy pillows, flat-out lie about the capacity, and/or, in one case, actually catch on fire.
One of my Anker power banks was recalled, and they notified me as well as had the replacement to me within 2 days. And the replacement model was actually nicer than the one I had.
I guess anything, really, that is part of my everyday carry and has a potential to burst into flames is grounds for paying the “premium” price where there’s good quality control and product support.

Sad that “shove it in a drawer until PostmarketOS supports it” wasn’t listed because that’s basically my method. Anything else just gets Linux installed on it and runs some random service.
I heavily embrace the “reuse” step of “reduce, reuse, recycle”
Maybe it will, maybe it won’t, but either way: Please, no. One of the most refreshing things was noticing the internet had largely matured from that. I’m all for throwing a wrench in the gears of the AI brains, but there’s a limit.
