User level blocking Vs. moderation?
Is there a plan to prevent the issue that a moderator has individually blocked a user, but then is unable to see the posts of that user and moderate them should that become necessary? Maybe there could be a toggle to temporarily disable user blocks for communities one has to moderate?

[The reverse is also available](https://git.mastodont.cat/spla/replicator), but who would want that?

That would be probably result in an instance ban as it would federate a lot of old posts at once.

I wonder what the license of the models is and what possible copyright implication might be when using a generated voice based on game voice actor 🤔

For Manjaro. Waydroid is a wrapper to run Android apps on Linux Phones.

Actual personal budget app is now open source
Seems quite nice, especially that the device sync is e2ee.

If you connect to a bouncer probably no need to change. This is anyways an early alpha so you might prefer RevolutionIRC. But just try and see 😆


At least you are not sockpuppeting other accounts to vote for yourself ;)


I did, this works way better on mobile connections and also supports more IRCv3 stuff like chat history.



An earlier plan actually said that they could pay it off on Mars, but people started pointing out that that sounds a lot like indentured servitude if you are stuck on Mars then, although H1-B visa workers for the FAANG in the US can probably tell a story about that as well…

Even a totally transparent social credit system necessarily results in social chilling and internalized self-censorship. There are different opinions on that and some people consider this the only way to have a harmonious society, but I hope we will find a better solution at some point.


I don’t think so. He is the guy that wants to plant a lot of trees.


You mean racism of other Ethiopians towards Tigrayans? Yes, probably.


Hmm, so like a social credit score for the fediverse? Trolling a bit of course, but that seems like it could have a lot of unintended consequences that are rather bad.


I am less optimistic about that. I theory yes, but looking at the way people in the Mastodon federation go about defederating entire instances and any instance that still federates with said instance because they don’t like some specific person’s opinion…

Moderation isn’t really solved by federation, it just makes it harder to get enraged about this single face-less entity that does all the “censorship”. But that doesn’t mean instance moderators are not subject of plenty of accusations of “censorship” and “political bias”.


Likely relevant with the increasing size of the Lemmy federation.

He is also not really well informed about the current logistical issues.

ICRC is trying to scale up and is currently bringing in about 20 trucks per week (and also airlifting stuff). But there is no fuel in Tigray to transport and distribute the items further and most commercial truck drivers refuse to enter the area.

Ethiopia is also currently experiencing an economic crisis with high inflation and lack of foreign currency which makes it hard to import the needed relief items in high quantities. There is also a lot of local militia still making overland transport a risky endeavor.

But all in all the needs are huge and there is definitely a funding gap to provide the aid needed.


A historic source with some issues but also some good ideas, similar to Marx.


Unlikely but it seems it was sold with an optional 128gb SATA SSD. But even then it might make sense to upgrade to a bigger and somewhat faster SSD, but of course the SATA interface limits that a bit.


While you are at it also replace the hard-drive with a SSD, as that will have a much bigger effect on speed than the RAM upgrade.


No, 2x8GB is the best, or open up the laptop and check the existing 4 GB stick (might even be 2x2GB though) and try to find the same online for 2x4GB setup, as 8GB is basically enough if you don’t run bloatware like Windows.


You can switch to device ID for the drive identifier. That has several advantages and also makes it easier to identify the actual drive.


Yes they both use ActivityPub and are (mostly) compatible.


A custom smiley set might be cool. The icon defininitly would work for that.


I don’t really see the point of having another circlejerk instance. There is already raddle.me if you are looking for something like that. Otherwise slrpnk.net seems like a nice initiative.


Note that I said “looks stupid”, so yeah maybe I am just too stupid myself to understand the glorious logic of the typical lemmygrad user 🤷


Always check if a post that looks extremely stupid comes from a lemmygrad.ml user, if so don’t bother trying to explain 😓


Hmm looks like we have our first Lemmy DDOS event 🤣

It was working when I posted it 🤷‍♂️



The democratically elected parliament made a non-confidence vote and this was even confirmed as legal by the highest constitutional court.

Maybe there were some shady backdoor deals involved (as usual in Pakistan), but this wasn’t a “coup”.

Works even with Windows and has all sorts of nice features including sending files between the devices. You need to have both devices connected to the same wifi though.


Actually the opposite, among the best ones are cartoon characters from TV shows, see https://fakeyou.com/ for example, and that is probably still far from what can be done with a bit more effort.

There are also specific ML models for audio that sound pretty convincing in replicating a specific person’s voice.


You still don’t understand the concept of being on a federated website it seems. What you said makes as much sense as “XYZ on a communist email”.

This post was made by a user from mander.xyz (AFAIK not communist), to a community on lemmy.ml (not openly communist either) and you accessed it from lemmygrad.ml (a Stalinist instance that isn’t communist either, but lets not have a discussion on that ;) ).


The Ethiopian government did their best to suppress international press coverage other than highly speculative and biased “reports” by people from the Tigrayan diaspora (which the article above also falls under).

There is just too little reliable information about the situation in Tigray right now, so this isn’t just a “black lives don’t matter” situation when it comes to press coverage.

P.S.: Ethiopians are pretty “white” by African standards /s


Nice to know that this also works!



Mostly articles by usually well informed journalists on asiatimes.com and some background info I picked up when I worked in Pakistan a few years ago.


Then try to install LinageOS on it. I am on a phone from 2016 with LinageOS and I can’t complain about speed.


No, but you can probably install a different rom. The Fairphone 3+ is also still good and a bit cheaper.


Basically look for a phone on the LinageOS supported list: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/


You are not up to date on Afghan or Pakistan politics at all it seems. And foreign envoys meeting with party representative happens all the time in the US, that is basically their job. In a healthy democracy that is also not really a problem.

During the time of the Taliban takeover, the Chinese negotiated with a moderate faction of the Taliban and it looked for a while like they succeeded in pushing them into position of power. But then the Pakistani ISI intervened and supported the hard liner Taliban faction from the Haqqani network. The Chinese were furious about this and forced the head of the ISI to resign a few weeks later through their influence into the top leadership of the Pakistani military.


As usual the answer is ZFS ;)

If you put your data storage on a ZFS volume you can easily and efficiently back it up on another remote ZFS volume.


Everyone with some common sense knew this was going to happen the moment the Ukrainians started handing out weapons to civilians. Even if these civilians were not actual combatants, the Russian soldiers would have to always treat them as potential ones as a matter of self preservation.

Note I am not at all trying to justifying killing of civilians or excusing the Russian side here, but simply stating the facts of how such things happen in insurgency situations.
