perkele@sopuli.xyzto Chat@beehaw.org•What subreddits would you like to see replicated on the Fediverse?English3·2 years agoI’ll mail a 10mm to whoever gets one off the ground
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Programming@beehaw.org•Some people pronounce SQL as "sequel", and some as "squeal"English9·2 years agoI’ve also heard Squirrel
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Technology@beehaw.org•Reddit's backend seems to be entirely down nowEnglish1·2 years agoFrom their statuspage:
“Reddit Failing to Load Identified - We’re aware of problems loading content and are working to resolve the issues as quickly as possible. Jun 12, 2023 - 07:58 PDT”
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•What's the current state of printers on Linux? Are there any decent options?1·2 years agoI love mine, it just works. I have Linux, macOS, and Windows devices printing to mine flawlessly.

perkele@sopuli.xyzto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•I like this significantly better than MastodonEnglish3·2 years agoI don’t think so, but I could be wrong. I guess the “groups” functionality of Facebook could technically qualify it as such, but its primarily aimed at being a social media website. I’m not 100% on it either, because there’s a lot of overlap between platforms and their functionality.
So my understanding is Reddit, or specifically u/spez, tried to claim that the Apollo developer was blackmailing them over the entire API pricing debacle. The Apollo developer posted the audio and transcript of the call with Reddit showing they were lying. Now they’ve claimed his App is poorly developed and making wasteful amounts of API calls- so now he’s posted a large swath of code online to disprove that also.
tl;dr reddit CEO caught in a couple lies
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Technology@lemmy.ml•3rd Party Apps should add a 'delete user history' function before going offlineEnglish2·2 years agoMake sense. Deleting a post probably just toggles a ‘deleted’ flag in the database and doesn’t touch the post contents. Writing over the comment, however, would actually change the data. Then you can proceed to delete it.
perkele@sopuli.xyztoReddit@lemmy.ml•Reddit is claiming that Christian Selig (the Apollo dev) attempted to blackmail them8·2 years agoIt’s been such a slow decline but the writing has been on the wall for a while. Maybe this is the push everyone needs to take a chance on a new platform.
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•I like this significantly better than MastodonEnglish6·2 years agoIt’s in the name, mostly. It aggregates content. You can post links, text posts, images to specific communities and have them displayed in a feed of your communities of choice. That’s what Digg was and Reddit is, and kind of what Lemmy is doing- except on the Fediverse.
I just use the email metaphor and it usually gives people a rough idea how it works. It seems more complicated than it is.
It strongly reminds me of linked IRC servers, I love it.
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Wireless cameras that don't spy on you like Ring?English5·2 years agoHonestly, a Lorex/Dahua/Hikvision IP camera, or even a no-name amazon IP camera should work. They all support ONVIF and can generally be watched over HTTP. They don’t require a NVR or anything and certainly don’t require anything more than a network connection. They’re not wireless, however.
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the stupidest way you've ever injured yourself?5·2 years agoI was showing off for a girl I was seeing, using my pullup bar. I live in a small cabin so it’s over the only doorframe that had clearance for the handles- the one between my kitchen and bathroom. I pull myself up and it strikes me as a good idea to put my feet up on the bar to attempt to hang by the legs.
Naturally, my feet go backwards over my head, feeling like I’m about to rip my rotator cuffs, I just drop. Straight onto a tile floor. Knock the wind out of myself and shockingly I don’t hit my head. Hurt my back, shoulders, and pride quite a bit.
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What niche reddit community do you want to see find a place on the fediverse?2·2 years agoI’m still finding my way around, too. But so far I’m liking it. Love your instance name lmao
perkele@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What niche reddit community do you want to see find a place on the fediverse?4·2 years agoGood news on one of your requests! There seems to already be a piracy community here.
I generally use Linux (Debian) or MacOS, since I own a couple apple silicon macs. I do try and use HaikuOS as much as possible, since its POSIX implementation is pretty mature and is seeing a good amount of software ported.
I’ll stop buying apple when I can get a multi-core arm machine that’s not made of scrapbin plastic from a traditional PC manufacturer. I have two M1 machines running Asahi Linux and they’re excellent computers.
