Yip, Sublinks.
I’m not sure how far along they are, I don’t think I’ve seen a sublinks instance in the wild. Their demo seems to be running the Lemmy frontend still, if I’m understanding things right. But it’s basically a community project to build lemmy but in java instead of rust and they have a lot more moderation tools. It’s what Beehaw are planning to migrate to, but I think it might not be ready yet.
Kbin is dead, Mbin is good but different to Lemmy. Also see PieFed and Sublinks.
The wonderful thing about federated services is that you can have fun with all the users on Lemmy and see all the content but not have to actually use the Lemmy software. You can even follow Lemmy communities from Mastodon and interact with posts from there (just in a Mastodon way).
If you have an original Framework (from memory, 11th gen intel 13 inch), there were hardware issues that I don’t thing could be resolved via software updates. I believe they worked in them for the intel 12th gen and later.
I run a fedora derivative on an original framework, and I used a command to disable sleep and go to a deeper state (hibernate maybe?) so it doesn’t lose battery while asleep. And if you take out your HDMI, display port, etc cards and just use USB (or none) that resolves another power drain issue.
But basically, it’s usable but not perfect. I’m waiting to see if there’s another gen of AMD card coming then might update my mainboard.
I dunno, I like it as a laptop but I’m also seldom far from a charger.
Multiple Firefox windows? I’m not that civilised, I just have 100+ tabs in the one window.
I like to have a 50GB+ swap file. Though Fedora is a bit weird with swap files as by default it’s stored in RAM (Yes, extra space for RAM is stored in RAM. I… admit I don’t understand the detail).
I use a shit load of RAM on Linux. You guys clearly have amateur numbers when it comes to how many applications you have open at once.
It seems the RSA-155 (512 bit) encryption commonly used in the 90s was broken in 1999, no quantum needed (due to it being based on primes).
Though from what I can search up, reddit users from 10 years ago were confident a 128 bit modern algorithm (e.g. AES) would never be able to be brute forced, even by quantum computers.
I dunno, sometimes I wonder if not everyone on the internet is an expert.
But isn’t the point that we just need to stay ahead of it. Surely encryption used in the 90s could be broken by a quantum computer today?
I get how it’s possible, but this is Google. Surely they have decades of experience at keeping a website up no matter what happens!
But how does this happen? Surely Google has the ability to make highly available systems that are resistant to power going out at one of the three locations (as per the article).
I live in a city with a decent network of busses and trains. The trains are just nicer. The trains aren’t that different in fanciness to the busses, but they are bigger on the inside and I think that makes a big difference.
Ah right, I get you. I wonder if they have considered this. Pretty sure their free/demo tier is 100 searches not confined to a time period so presumably the platform could handle that model.
I’m not gonna subscription my heated car seats but search is a service that costs an ongoing amount to provide. The subscription isn’t significant, it’s $5 a month for 300 searches (or $10 for unlimited).
I know we’ve been conditioned to expect search for free, but if we want to get away from the “the user is the product” model then I think it’s a good thing to have a subscription to a service that has ongoing costs to provide.
You’re not the only one. They have a leaderboard and the top 7 results are various Pinterest domains.
You pay instead of seeing ads, so they need the account. Remembers you, though, so you just login once. Plus they have a solution for incognito/private windows too.
I really like it, has some cool features.
Something something his noodley appendage?
If you follow the source trail it lists Cloudscene as the source, who seem to be some marketplace for buying and selling cloud services. I highly suspect it’s a count of the data centers they have listed by their sellers, which would bias the US and explain why there are so few for China.
If you follow the trail you get Cloudscene as a source: https://cloudscene.com/region/datacenters-in-north-america
They seem to be some cloud services marketplaces, where they link up buyers and sellers. I suspect it only lists the data centers that they have listed that are included in the graphic. That would make a lot of sense, since Chinese data centers used to service people in China are unlikely to be listed, which is why it says in all of China there are only 300 data centers.
I don’t even have gigabit and if I try to download a game from Steam, it seems to eventually catch up to the disk and has to pause while the data is being written to disk. This is to an SSD.
If I was the only person in the house I wouldn’t pay for gigabit, I’d just go for a couple hundred and that would be heaps. 100 would likely be plenty for most people too. But if you do a lot of downloading I probably wouldn’t want less than that if I had the choice.
I don’t think anyone really knows. It’s the single person issue, that Ernest was the only person to have access to do anything. It seems something is personally wrong for him, maybe unwell, maybe something else, but no one hears from him for months. The flagship kbin instance run by Ernest, https://kbin.social/, has had an error and hasn’t worked for months.
To my knowledge, this is the last anyone has heard from him:
That was 5 months ago.
It’s clear something is very wrong, but because Ernest is the only one with access that means no one can help. Mbin forked Kbin and have been actively developing Mbin. Many, if not most of the sites called “kbin” are now running Mbin.
