• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Microslop' is heading for Edge – major browser redesign is inspired by Copilot, and it's already seriously unpopular⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There was an idea mooted over on Mastodon, that Flight Sim will be renamed Copilot Copilot. Rolls off the tongue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wondering if running a single user Lemmy is an overkill⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m hosting the Decronym bot on a single-user instance, and it’s a real pain. The bot’s been down for weeks, actually, because an upgrade failed with some obscure error around the database schema…

  I’ve ended up just today, wiping the whole thing and starting over, losing all data and having to refederate the bot. So yeah, I wouldn’t recommend.

  [Acronyms to help the bot re-establish: LVM, HASS, k8s]

  We somehow get the Pogues more than both, which annoys me mostly because it’s only tangentially Christmassy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Beginners Guide To Selfhosting Part 1⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Right, I self-host email and have done for ten years or more, but I don’t do it out of a server at home. Does my Postfix not count as selfhosting any more?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You gotta rizz 'em⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks like the tide is turning on the use of slop imagery. Comments calling out generated images are getting downvoted here, and over on Mastodon AI images are getting faved/boosted more than previously.

  Is the neo-Luddite battle lost? Did convenience win out over environmental concerns?

  Sounds like HowToBasic (or Basics?), from memory.

  Whenever I come across ASCII art in the comments, it’s a good day. Here’s one from the day job:

  ASCII art of a fist, with the headline “DO NOT ADD TO THIS LIST UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING OR YOU WILL BE PUNCHED.”

  There’s a short story (more of a novella) by Stephen Baxter on this exact topic, for what it’s worth. Touching Centauri: e-reading.mobi/…/stephen-baxter-phase-space.html

  Would you happen to be willing to throw work to random out-of-work devs who aren’t in your city? I may know a couple over here in England…
