The botsin.space Mastodon server shutting down is sad news, it’s a pretty important server and if you didn’t like bots it was handy that you could just block one server and block loads of them at once.

I just woke up and this confused me

The Indian guy one is brilliant.

leaving Mastodon out to try

While it’s clear what’s meant from the context, I’ve never heard this idiom. Do you mean “hanging Mastodon out to dry”?

Drop in the bucket sounds weird to me too, but a quick check shows that it’s the US version of drop in the ocean.

This is some weird throwback. Back when Lemmy was using web sockets (before Reddit blocked third-party apps) there was a bug where a page would update with different content, but replies would go to the original post (iirc), but it was fixed ages ago.

I love that track, thanks for sharing this analysis.

This could have been a really interesting question if OP hadn’t been so vague. As is, there’s too many interpretations to answer. Do they mean the physical connections? The protocols and services like IP, DNS and BGP? The world wide web, with its sites, links and search engines?

Does OP consider the Dark Web its own internet? Or a large corporate network its own internet? What about self-hosting a huge number of services in your own home?

So is this a human doing a great Attenborough impression, AI doing it, or the man himself*?

Their app and website are both atrocious. I’ve got a rant somewhere on Lemmy about once time it made me scream with impotent rage over the UX experience, and I’m someone comfortable with editing the DOM/scripting to fix the worst of it.

I can see it from the three medium/small instances I just tried.

Also, is typigraphy a typo (typi?) or its own thing?

It took me way too long to remember about tails.

I think that because you’re attributing those views to “the citizenry”. I can only go on the words you’ve used, and you’ve used a word that describes the whole country’s population, not a small minority.

It’s a small minority from the far right rioting, with massive counter-protests. You’re trying to say the whole population is rotten based on a few negative examples, which ironically is just what the racists are doing themselves.

Rats definitely can (also for TB), and you can sponsor them to do so: https://apopo.org/

Magawa was a famous example: https://time.com/6138994/magawa-dies-landmines-cambodia/

I’ve raged at the incompetent UX design so many times, like recently when I was trying to add videos to the currently playlist in a certain order, since you can’t reorder yourself. The mini player blocked the controls I needed for the last item on the page, but closing the player wiped out the playlist. Cue scream of rage and a few choice words at volume.

I can’t find a suitable word in English, but I’m shocked and dismayed that German doesn’t have anything we could steal.

There’s a lot of smaller communities that are only kept going by one dedicated poster, or never got the critical mass to keep going, which is a shame.

Hang on, if you’re using CrowdStrike but not getting the updates, then why are you using it at all?

It’s just riding off the coat tails of the OG 1+1=2

Yeah, the surprise ending was amazing the first time I saw it, and it’s still satisfying now after all these years.
