There are no current plans to build an app or to make an API that Lemmy apps could use. At the moment I'm focused on getting the web-based experience as good as it can get.

For now, try the PWA, it's pretty nice.

how to install the 'app'

kglitch,

...aaand this is why chatgpt is no substitute for expertise.

It's "generative" AI, in that it generates lists of words that fit together. But it has no actual understanding of anything so the stuff it generates is totally surface, middle-of-the-road whatever-you-want-to-hear.

kglitch,

I apologise for my dismissive tone earlier. Thanks for putting your idea out there 🙂

kglitch,

Which app do you use for screen recording? That's the only thing keeping me on X11.

kglitch,

ooo, that does sound handy!

Looks like OBS is the goto. Thanks.

kglitch,

With some ways of looking at things, the world as a whole is getting better, rather than worse.

I'm pretty sure long covid and climate chaos will put a stop to that soon enough but we'll see. For now, some stuff is getting worse and some stuff is getting better.

kglitch,

If going vegan is too much for you, just stop eating beef and switch to soy milk.

The emissions per calorie from beef are way way higher than any other form of meat.

kglitch,

On my Lenovo Yoga 530, OpenSuse KDE (X11), touchscreen sucks so bad that I just use it as a regular laptop. Disappointing, but I'm not going to distro hop to solve it.

kglitch,

Ok.

Now go to youtube and search for 'china 1-nanometer chip'. Those videos exist.

The IPCC report must be agreed upon by representatives from every country. Including Saudi Arabia, and USA. So you can imagine how "conservative" it is compared to reality. Anything slightly uncomfortable gets negotiated down to the point where the oil-producing countries are fine with it.

The 195 member countries of the IPCC sign off on different parts of the report. The summaries for policymakers are “approved,” meaning that “the material has been subject to detailed, line-by-line discussion” between the member countries and the authors. The synthesis reports are “adopted,” which implies “a section-by-section discussion.” And the full report, which this year runs nearly 4,000 pages long, is “accepted,” which means both parties agree that “the technical summary and chapters of the underlying report present a comprehensive, objective, and balanced view of the subject matter.”

If people find the IPCC reports alarming as they are, imagine how alarming the draft from the scientists is before the Saudis, Russians and Americans get out the black markers.

kglitch,

The article claims it's source is Euro-Med Monitor but https://euromedmonitor.org makes no mention of organ harvesting. No press release, blog post or anything.

Lots of other ghastly stuff though, holy shit.

OP is simply incorrect.

I'm coding a Lemmy alternative right now and have been testing this functionality out extensively. Deletes of posts and comments certainly federate, I've seen the AP traffic to make it happen. Also, the docs: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/05-federation.html#delete-post-or-comment

I haven't tested what happens when the 'delete account' button is clicked... Mastodon solves this by sending a 'delete this user' Activity to every fediverse instance so there's nothing about ActivityPub that makes removing an account and all it's posts in one go impossible.

edit: What I said above is correct if you or a moderator deletes individual pieces of content. However Lemmy does not federate account deletions. If you delete your account, all your posts and comments are deleted on your server only. Disappointing. PieFed will do better than this.

kglitch, (edited )

Yes, although the server will not ignore the deletion activity if that server is running Lemmy. We're talking about Lemmy here, not the fediverse as a whole. OP singled out Lemmy in the post title and said "lemmy devs are not concerned with..."

I'm sure there is more to be done in this area. It'd be great to know for sure which software treats deletion activities properly (I'm really unsure about Kbin, I think it does not) and which does not so instance admins can make informed decisions about who they federate with. Perhaps this information could be made available right within the UI that Lemmy admins use to control their instance, rather than an obscure documentation page somewhere...

IMO having deletes federate should be part of a minimum standard all fediverse software has to meet (plus mod tools, spam control, csam filters, etc) before it is allowed to federate but obviously we're nowhere near having that sort of social organisation.

kglitch,

As long as a deleted post is no longer visible in the publicly-accessible parts of the site, that would be enough verification for me.

I don't know how the GDPR authorities verify compliance with mainstream proprietary closed source apps, do you?

kglitch,

Near Ho Chi Minh city there are some tunnels like this which they let tourists go into and crawl along for a few hundred meters before coming up somewhere else. They were very very skinny, some of the tourists could not fit. Utterly terrifying places, when you think about the context they were used in.

Afterwards I paid $50 to fire a few shots from an AK-47. Surprisingly loud. Hard to imagine coping with several of them going off all around.
