EST is UTC-5, so tell your friend that it’ll be between 14:00-14:30 EST on the 22nd of February.

Clearly he’s actually the BBEG lich in disguise. Time for a phylactery hunt! ;)

Have you also enabled Bot Fight Mode? (There’s a setting to “Block AI bots” that seems useful in your situation)

There was some kind of incident between the artist and a camera woman. The exact details aren’t public, AFAIK.

In a rather large part of the world (the solid green parts of that map).

It’s nice in theory, but I’ve had very little luck using it for the last few days.

I wouldn’t be surprised if whatever instances it picks to send people to are soon afterwards rate limited because demand is too high relative to supply.

There may not have been much to tell until it actually started, which was one day before the start of this month (modulo time zones, it was held in UTC+04).

It’s an annual thing apparently (except during the height of the pandemic) and this was the 28th time, hence the “28” in the name. Presumably they’ll hold COP29 next year, and now you’ve heard of that one about a year beforehand! 😛

We did build stuff on ActivityPub: Lemmy, Kbin, Mastodon etc. are all based on that underlying protocol.

Because you need a way to be reachable over HTTPS for other instances to be able to securely send you updates (new posts/comments/votes etc.), so you need a trusted certificate. While HTTPS does not strictly require a domain name¹ it vastly simplifies the process.

¹: It’s possible to get a trusted certificate for an IP address, but not nearly as easy as getting one for a domain. And it’s probably also more expensive than just getting a domain and using Let’s Encrypt to get a certificate.

You can only federate via tor or i2p if both sides support those protocols, because for federation to work between two nodes both nodes need to be able to initiate connections to the other. That means one-way bridges like tor exit nodes are not sufficient.

I’d guess most Fediverse servers don’t support either of those protocols, so any new server trying to federate solely through them would have an extremely limited view of the Fediverse.

Though I suppose theoretically nothing is really preventing a motivated group of server admins from setting up a parallel “dark Fediverse” containing only onion sites.

It was the third time. Rutte I, III, and IV all fell, but Rutte II served its entire term (though there were still some interim changes in its composition due to a few resignations of individual ministers).

Ah, so that’s the reason for the regular dips in the memory graph I assume? They do indeed seem to be spaced every 30 minutes.

No, it means it’s got the physical machine all to itself. It’s a rented server located in a Hetzner data center.

It probably just didn’t mark that memory as “used” in the task manager.

Tasks - My life would be a mess without this or something very similar.
Firefox - Ad blocking, dark mode, bookmarks etc. synced to my laptop.
My bank app.

If you’re the first person to look it up on your instance (lemmy.world in this case) you may have to paste that URL into the lemmy.world search bar for it to show up there.

In any case, it works on lemmy.world now.

I do have some good news on the dotted letters being friends though: ij is considered a single letter in Dutch. Go ahead, try selecting just one of them there.

The same is of course true for the upper-case variant IJ, but that form unfortunately leaves out the dots.

Nice!

I’m not going to claim it hasn’t been a major topic in the selfhosted community lately, but that’s just because it’s a new service people have just discovered and are interested in selfhosting. But the selfhosted community is for people hosting servers of all kinds themselves. Not just enthusiasts either – on /r/selfhosted I’ve seen people hosting servers at their workplaces as well.

As to whether to leave the post, I’ll leave that up to the moderators.

!selfhosted@lemmy.world is on lemmy.world (and according to the search I posted it’s also the largest community of its kind) so that seems to be a more logical place for this post.
