Ok but if it allows anubis to judge the soul of my bytes as being worthy of reaching a certain site I'm trying to access, then the program is not making any calculations that I don't want it to.

Would the FSF prefer the challenge page wait for user interaction before starting that proof of work? Along with giving them user a "don't ask again" checkbox for future challenges?

It's a bit clearer in french; "weed" is "mauvaise herbe" which literally translates to "bad herb/grass".

To my knowledge, there is 1 feature that forgejo has that gitea doesn't: it can generate a new ssh key for you at the click of a button that can be used to push repo changes to another git forge.

I have several personal repos on my forgejo instance that are each setup so that they mirror themselves onto my Codeberg account at noon every day.

I also have a gitea instance on a raspi on my local network that itself will push out changes on certain repos to the (public-facing) forgejo instance.

I can push and/or pull to any of the three origins as needed, but usually I just push to the gitea when I'm at home and the forgejo when I'm not, and let the mirroring take care of propagating changes to Codeberg.

Part of the problem is also that, while an acre of land can feed a family of 4, there's no way to generate enough surplus from that single acre to be able to afford a tractor in the first place. So the tractor creates the need for much larger farm plots being owned by a single person, which way up all the supposed extra free time the automation/mechanized tool was supposed to bring.

In the end, less people can work the land to sustain themselves and the only people better off are those who already had more than enough to go buy.

Very cool to see, now if only those comments could show up here in Lemmy...

I see the tumblr culture is already present, congrats! Although I never personally used tumblr, my understanding is that more than features or functionality it was very much the culture that its users cultivated that made that site special.

I wonder if they just want some more data they can then sell off to others.

New Pride Flag for the irradiated wastelands just stopped!

From 1 internet stranger to another, thank you. It really means a lot to me that people are doing what they can at their own level like you. I know how demotivating and isolating it can feel to be the only one doing the necessary work.

Also, wasn't Trump the reason the largest non-nuclear bomb in the USA arsenal was first used in combat? The bomb that had never been deployed in the almost 15 years since it's creation specifically because the US military thought it would create too many civilian casualties?

The same Trump that allegedly wanted to nuke hurricanes to disrupt them before they hit the US's coast?

The dude just wants to play with the shiny toys and see things go "boom". He has literally stated to his own biographer that

I suppose it suits him just fine that Israel is now flirting with open warfare with their neighbors.

I have gotten cynical to the point of assuming the "endgame" here is properly kicking off WW3, so that Trump gets an excuse to drop a nuke or two on an adversary.

"The last time we had a world war, we won it! We were the best - and we won it with our nukes, our big beautiful nukes - it's really a shame we haven't used them since, don't you think? We ended the war by dropping 2 on Japan, and now Japan is our best friend. Why don't we drop some nukes on Iran? Don't we want them to be our friend?"

If this turns out to be a measurable and reproducible effect for most humans, online gambling and video game loot boxes just became a while lot scarier in my mind.

More seriously, I'm pleased to see I'm not the only person who views this as a terrible loss.

I came across https://defed.xyz/ the other day, but it doesn't seem to fully report everything.

I suspect there is wisdom to be learned from forest management, specifically how regular, small controlled burns are how you avoid huge, unmanageable forest fires.

It's probably not what you're imagining, but there is the lemmynsfw instance which is a Lemmy instance that is more or less explicitly for porn.

But there is one other, probably even more important advantage: Prolog is a programmer's and software engineer's dream. It is compact, highly readable, and arguably the "most structured" language of them all. Not only has it done away with virtually all control flow statements, but even explicit variable assignment too! These virtues are certainly reason enough to base not only systems but textbooks on this language.

The 90s certainly were a different time...

Yeah, that's closer to the truth. Also, state education makes sure that we are at least aware of a certain few parts of our history, from executing our King and subsequently fighting off most of Europe to preserve the republic, to armed resistance when the Nazis occupied and the state capitulated, and finally De Gaul's staunch non-alignment (as far as Western former empires go). Not to mention that the biggest improvement in the collective safety net for our society was obtained thanks to an ostensibly leftist coalition in the 1930s.

So it's very much in our collective consciousness that we can protest, and that it's a pretty normal thing to do, all things considered.

More to your point, I don't know how many people here in France still expect protests to meaningfully obtain anything nowadays.

The magazine coming with a free operating system is something that will probably never happen again. Wild to think about.
