Fair enough, I capitulated and I use spotify for podcasts now

Have you used Firefox recently? There are a few chrome only sites but I’ve been daily driving it for a few months and it’s mostly upside

I think this has everything to do with the “Kenya-led intervention” US imperialists are trying to create in Hati

I found this in the wastelands of Google: https://www.howtogeek.com/linux-distributions-to-breathe-new-life-into-old-hardware/

I read the guide and it seems pretty solid.

If it is not x86 is it the Itanium ISA?

ELI5: a database is the “memory” of a program.

Every piece of data that any software uses almost certainly comes from and goes to multiple databases.

Once the data is stored, you can execute “queries” to have powerful access to update many records at a time, read particular records based on their relationship to other records, and so much more.

Your bank balances, your purchase history, your emails, every part of your digital life is almost certainly spread across a constellation of databases.

Bonus Fediverse content:

Lemmy itself uses the Postgres database extensively. Posts, users, comments, votes and more are all individually stored in the database.

Mastodon also uses Postgres. If a post goes up on Lemmy, and a Mastodon server is federated with it, the Lemmy server will send out a HTTP request to the Mastodon server containing the contents of the post. The Mastodon server will use this information to write its own record of the post in its own database.

Regarding your question about VMs: You can run a database inside a VM, or give the VM access to an outside database via queries, or both! You might run SQLlite (a small and excellent embedded database) on the VM to track its local state, while also running queries against a large postgres database to synchronize with other services in the cluster.

It’s pretty standard to send keypresses to the backend before the user hits submit (otherwise search boxes couldn’t do auto completion for example)

You could maybe write an extension that tries to detect the difference between this and a ‘full submit’ (and block those network requests) but I bet it would be very unreliable

I don’t know for sure but I know their moderation is dogshit. I think they don’t want to face down the deluge of Nazis like we have had to here, they’d rather be a clique-y cool kids clubhouse of Twitter brainrot

“Performance talent doesn’t exist, also: Ayn Rand”

Who is “we” and why do they get to decide whether other countries exist?

Be the poster you want to see in the Lemmy

Well probably because:

• Lemmy is explicitly a reddit clone
• The vast majority of lemmy users are recent emigres from Reddit
• Reddit is still much larger and more influential

It’s a reference to 1984

I believe GP is being sarcastic friend

Right!? I believe it has the hallmark repetitive blandness indicating AI wrote it (because oroboros)
