Tumblr’s move to WordPress and fediverse integration is ‘on hold’

Jump

  • Yeah their plans have been on and off for years now. Just ignore anything they say.

    • Britons could soon install balcony solar panels in flats and rental homes

    Jump

  • Yes, its kinda complicated and there are lots of reasons. The solar advocacy groups fought a lot to make it so that you dont even have to ask/notify your landlord or energy provider for these <800W installations

    • Feeding in a lot of power (and especially quickly switching it on and off) can create grid instability (because the electricity grid is stupid and designed for large centralized powerplants)
    • At some point (really big commercial installations) you are even required to install a remote disconnect system that the provider can use to turn off your installation if the grid is overloaded
    • You dont get the same amount of money for selling energy then buying it, which means with high power installations the provider loses money if they dont install a smart meter (meter that keeps track of how much flows out and into the grid)
    • With <800W installations the provider can still install a smart meter if they want, but you dont have to notify them of your installation

    I hope i didnt mix something up here. Obviously read about your local laws if you install anything.

  • It has been insanely successful in Germany. Around this time last year the total number of these private mini setups reached 500.000. They are typically 800W peak power (because thats the legal limit for an unregistered installation) so that gives you 400MW of total installed capacity. Pretty dope imo.

    • The AI Company Zuckerberg Just Poured $14 Billion Into Is Reportedly a Clown Show of Ludicrous Incompetence

    Jump

  • That has always been what Zuck does, so its not surprising.

    • Why does Firefox have unblockable ads on the NTP?

    Jump

  • Pretty sure you can disable those by click on the settings wheel visible in the bottom right. Or just use librewolf :)

    • Over a third of people on sinking Tuvalu seek Australia's climate visas

    Jump

  • Is the .tv TLD gonna disappear when Tuvalu completely goes under?

    • A kitty nest

    Jump

  • Yeah this is a deathtrap for birds. Horrible design.

    • Trump says he’ll withhold money from New York if Mamdani becomes mayor

    Jump

  • I hope Mamdani has a high quality security detail or he wont live long.

    • Xiaomi naming convention

    Jump

  • Western ones are also shitty tho. AMD and nvidia constantly changing up their naming schemes. Adding random X and T letters.

    • Xiaomi naming convention

    Jump

  • Bought an orange pi recently and had a similiarily confusing experience with naming schemes.

    • Reevaluating my password management

    Jump

  • Yup this is the way. The resulting .kdbx database file is encrypted so you can even synchronize it over an untrusted provider. Otherwise you can use something like syncthing to keep it strictly peer to peer.

    • Budapest Pride goes ahead, defying Orban threat of 'legal consequences'

    Jump

  • Man i would not wanna be on that bridge. They didnt set up any buffer zones on the sides of the bridge in case of panic. If there is one then people are gonna get crushed or have to jump into the water.

    • Fedora-based Minerals

    Jump

  • Thank you for extending this chain of tomfoolery :) I was thinking that Mint would make a good setup for a continuation.

    • Typical Friday night

    Jump

  • Those are the best hangout spots tho.

    • What's the difference between ICE breaking in to people's houses and disappearing them and IDF doing the same in Gaza?

    Jump

  • Its bad yes, but its just laughable to equate a literal genocide with hundreds of thousands of deaths, to people stuck in a cell for a few days, where one ended up dying. Its an insult to the Palestinian people.

    • What's the difference between ICE breaking in to people's houses and disappearing them and IDF doing the same in Gaza?

    Jump

  • You have a decent chance

    Thats what i meant by that. The number of times it has happened with ICE is nothing by comparison to the IDF.

    • Fedora-based Minerals

    Jump

  • Mint is an operating system based on Debian, while Ubuntu describes a set of closely related Bantu African-origin value systems that emphasize the interconnectedness of individuals with their surrounding societal and physical worlds.

    • What's the difference between ICE breaking in to people's houses and disappearing them and IDF doing the same in Gaza?

    Jump

  • You have a decent chance to survive somewhat unscathed if abducted by ICE. If you get abducted by the IDF you are basically guaranteed to be tortured, raped, killed or all of the above.

    The US is in a bad place, but i don't think you truly understand how bad things are in Gaza.

    • If government hackers can infiltrate big companies, why not hack normal people?

    Jump

  • Yeah this is like asking "Why rob a bank when you could just rob a random person on the street"

    Yeah sure you can do that, but the comparably tiny amount of money you get is not really worth the effort and risk.

    • Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic improvement.

    Jump

  • The concentration heatmaps are nice and im really happy how Paris has been able to get rid of cars, but this image comparison is just bullshit. That is not smog that is fog.
