The other fun one is that the continental US (AKA everything except Alaska) is just about the same size as Australia. Then when you consider that there’s 49 states versus Australia’s 7, you can see how the numbers come about.

Ex NSW premier John Barilaro was an executive director of a western Sydney property development company. That development company is closely tied to organised and gang crime - murders etc. - and so far its kingpins has evaded any serious prosecution. The video insinuates that this is a result of corruption of the NSW government.
I wonder whether they are aware of the ForgeFed project?
Thought that’s already supported? e.g. https://gitlab.com/diasporg/diaspora.atom
Oh wow thanks! :) One program syncs my home Mastodon timeline, with all replies, to a Maildir. Dovecot serves that over IMAP. Sending involves a custom SMTP server which reads the mail message and creates a post from it.
For Mastodon it was all about converting statuses (toots? Posts?) into RFC 5322 messages. Using the status’ ID as Message-Id
in the message header is handy. Mail clients do the heavy lifting of rendering threads thankfully!
Ha good eyes! :) I have basic receive-only working with Lemmy using a virtual file system interface I wrote (https://pkg.go.dev/olowe.co/lemmy). Just realised we actually spoke about this a while ago haha (https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/1035382 )
But synchronising to disk is super inefficient: too many API calls. Should subscribe using ActivityPub proper and store updates received as RFC 5322 messages.
From there we could serve the messages via NNTP. Then, finally, we could use nntpfs(4)
so the server and bandwidth will be the cheapest tier possible and the app developed by the lowest bidder
But billed at the rate of the most expensive tier of infrastructure and charged at the highest bidder’s price but outsourced to the lowest bidder, of course!
This made me realise that the article is not about the quote or any sociology; it’s about politics and John Howard. I dislike articles like this just like the ones about Elon Musk. Political nonsense to get people riled up.
I think I’m missing something. Don’t the police or whoever check the license number, name etc. against a central record? Is this just about the convenience of not carrying around a plastic card? I feel like there’s more to it but I don’t know what.
Devil’s advocate: what about the posts and comments I’ve made via Lemmy? They could be presented as files (like email). I could read, write and remove them. I could edit my comments with Microsoft Word or ed
. I could run some machine learning processing on all my comments in a Docker container using just a bind mount like you mentioned. I could back them up to Backblaze B2 or a USB drive with the same tools.
But I can’t. They’re in a PostgreSQL database (which I can’t query), accessible via a HTTP API. I’ve actually written a Lemmy API client, then used that to make a read-only file system interface to Lemmy (https://pkg.go.dev/olowe.co/lemmy). Using that file system I’ve written an app to access Lemmy from a weird text editing environment I use (developed at least 30 years before Lemmy was even written!): https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/1035382
More ideas if you’re interested at https://upspin.io
They even have a term for this — local-first software — and point to apps like Obsidian as proof that it can work.
This touches on something that I’ve been struggling to put into words. I feel like some of the ideas that led to the separation of files and applications to manipulate them have been forgotten.
There’s also a common misunderstanding that files only exist in blocks on physical devices. But files are more of an interface to data than an actual “thing”. I want to present my files - wherever they may be - to all sorts of different applications which let me interact with them in different ways.
Only some self-hosted software grants us this portability.
What products are the sides really wanting to trade? Are they after our dirt?
Seems so. I found this article from DFAT much more informative: https://www.dfat.gov.au/trade/agreements/negotiations/aeufta/australia-european-union-fta-fact-sheet
pearl clutching
Ha! Can’t believe I haven’t heard this one before. I’m gonna use it all week to keep my usual long whinge-y “society is fucked” rants nice and short. My girlfriend will be very pleased.
This was the provider I went with after self-hosting my mail for 7+ years on an OpenBSD VPS. I feel like Migadu is an honest and good-value service.
Each time your browser makes a request (such as updating the graphs), it’s submitting a new DNS query each time.
That would be surprising; most HTTP clients reuse network connections and connections are deliberately kept open to reduce the overhead of reopening a connection (including latency in doing a DNS lookup).
Then again, I’ve seen worse ;)
Slightly off-topic: I’m not too familiar with FreeBSD (I use OpenBSD), but others may be interested to know you may be able to configure wireguard interfaces without installing any packages.
It probably just involves running some ifconfig
commands at boot via some entries in /etc/rc.conf
. See https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/network/
Yeah I’ve always found that AllowedIPs
name a little bit misleading. It is mentioned in the manpage:
A comma-separated list of IP (v4 or v6) addresses with CIDR masks from which incoming traffic for this peer is allowed and to which outgoing traffic for this peer is directed.
But I think it’s a little funny how setting AllowedIPs
also configures how packets are routed. I dunno.
You could start troubleshooting by manually executing DNS queries from mainDesktop.lan
, and watching the DNS server logs.
Not sure what OS the desktop is running, but assuming Windows you could run:
nslookup -type=A pihole.example.duckdns.org.
On macOS/Linux/etc.:
dig -t A pihole.example.duckdns.org.
This could rule out behaviour from the proxy or applications.
Nice digging. Someone savvy may be able to extract the ANZ Shield APK using apktool, then maybe some decompilation from there to find any Symantec VIP libraries…
Depends how you look at it! Here’s me accessing Mastodon and the fediverse via email: https://lemmy.world/post/11020167 I’ve written a a couple more prototypes to connect one to the other. If anyone is interested I could write up more about how it works or do a more public demo
