@kcarr2015@mstdn.social Haha, true that. Only the those two clones we’re cool with it.

Hmm… that’s scary too if they all see “the wife” and decide to have her. ^^;;

@cm0002@lemmy.world Wow. That’s including the books they archived? Or, just the websites?

O_O I didn’t hear about the user data issue.

Hmm… I wonder how long it has been going on. It took a couple of weeks before I got a reply from them that an admin unintentionally deleted my account, now that you mentioned it, my account probably got squeezed between spam accounts or something. (I was just advised to create a new account, and sadly only lists can be restored. T_T )

@Varyk@sh.itjust.works Yep, it’s challenging and sad. Even Wikipedia use it as a resource and backup of sources.

And there are also those using it to archive copyright infringement, or as a record of a work’s license at the time (specially since some loves to change the license when they originally released it in Creative Commons or the Public Domain).

It’s crazy though that there was no service as close to the features archive.org has. The only one I’m aware of available publicly is archive.ph / archive.md but they don’t offer the archiving of links found, and it’s pretty much very static only (TiddlyWiki sites don’t work correctly).

It’s not “Firefox-only” per se, it’s CSS. Firefox is fast when it comes to implementing updates that benefits multilingual and Asian support, and Chromium is either slow, implements a small part only, or just ignores it completely.

(aside: Another good example is Ruby annotation. Firefox’s implementation of Ruby is up-to-date while Chromium’s stuck in 2010.

And this is very very annoying, you have to design for Chromium when it comes to Ruby annotations; or use JavaScript to serve different Ruby codes per browser. Chromium is practically the “modern IE6”.)

It’s the same with :lang().

In Chromium, you still have to do it like this:

:lang(en-GB), :lang(en-US), :lang(en-AU), :lang(en-NZ), :lang(en-PH) { }  

In Firefox you can do it this way:

:lang(en-GB, en-US, en-AU, en-NZ, en-PH) { }  

or

:lang("en-GB", "en-US", "en-AU", "en-NZ", "en-PH") { }  

Another example, in Chromium:

:lang(ceb-Tglg), :lang(pam-Tglg), :lang(fil-Tglg) { }

:lang(ceb-Hano), :lang(pam-Hano), :lang(fil-Hano) { }  

In Firefox:

:lang(\*-Tglg) { }  
:lang(\*-Hano) { }  

or

:lang("*-Tglg) { }  
:lang("*-Hano) { }

@vk6flab@lemmy.radio That’s a very good question! Sadly, I haven’t received the update on Android yet. T_T

Good thing you mentioned it, I’ll pay attention to that once I get the latest beta update from our region.

@nanoUFO

> Sooner rather than later

Because there must be bugs. It’s a feature. ^_~

@BrikoX

> The ability to opt-out of quote posts is also currently planned, which makes it that Mastodon’s implementation will not be compatible with other fediverse implementations of quote posting.

Not surprising. Even before ActivityPub was announced, when the #fediverse was still powered by #OStatus, Mastodon was already breaking compatibility. There were countless of heated debates about almost every Mastodon-only “feature” they implemented that all other Fediverse devs were _forced_ to implement.

And here we are with yet another.

I wonder what will supporters of opt-out or anti-quotepost camp will do if the other Fediverse devs ignore this Mastodon-only “feature”, and just continue with the common implementation of quote posts? Are we going to see a new reason for “fediblock”, and finally fragment the Fediverse network?

@slazer2au Apologies! In any case, updated and moved the inline tags down.

@vasus It is!

And apologies, hashtags are important in the fediverse. ^_

Hmm… what I can do next time is to not use inline hashtags, and just have it in a separate line. Thank you for the feedback!

But, that itself is ironic. Koreans are coming to the #Philippines to study, and get away from the very toxic Korean education system. So, in the end, why invite foreign institutions to open a branch in the country, or to own existing ones?

What we should do, like what the West is doing, is go to Korea to observe, participate, and learn from them. Bring that home ourselves, adapt it to our existing #education system and #culture.

If they do want foreign ownership/branches here, then we should invite the Korean institutions. Why? Even Western universities are coming to Korea to learn from their educational system.

It would be foolish to invite Western institutions who themselves are learning from the Korean #education system. We should go directly to the source if we’re going to invite foreign schools.

@trashgirlfriend I remembered, #Walkr, a space gamification fitness app, have an option to “boost” steps when you’re about to go on a long walk/run/jumping rope session. You can use it once every 24 hours only (and only lasts for 2 hours IIRC).

I think, now that you suggested it, that was maybe their solution to keeping the sensitivity fixed for their game, but giving users a chance to earn more if they’re about to engage in a long session.

🤔

@trashgirlfriend Ooh. I like that! It could be a widget too for easy access.

@hornedfiend @schamppu I think the game is set to medium sensitivity, or Low. There are some fitness apps with a sensitivity setting, and if you place it high, it is more accurate. The problem arises if you’re just moving your phone, since it’s high sensitivity, it counts those as steps. So, most apps have it at medium or Low. That’s my guess at least.

@commander_la_freak @emeralddawn45

That’s a new way to explain it, “frame rate”.

Most #scifi that touches on #ParallelWorlds and #TimeTravel use some sort of vibration or frequency. Even in the 90s Japanese #anime entitled #SerialExperimentsLain, it used the Schumann resonance to explain its plot. And of course in #Marvel and #DC they do the same.

But, yeah, I’m not sure either about it. Is there a way to find out which author/writer first thought of this idea? Or, was it based on a real-life theory that scifi authors picked-up independently? Or, was it Star Trek that created this approach?

(And again, that frame rate approach is great. ^_)

@dwbrown@mastodon.world Wow! Thank you! Going to get it. ^_

@anime@chirp.social @anime@a.gup.pe

@sub_ Yep, I’m using #Exult. I find it easier than regular #DOSBox. I used the files installed by GOG for Exult Linux. And true, I like the QoL features they added!

@Lunar Ahh! Fable, Fallout, and Witcher! I miss those too. Hmm, I think they’re on winter sale, I might be able to grab them as well. ^_;;

@Lunar You too! ^_

@RookieNerd @fediverse

Hmm… There is a misconception on what the #Fediverse is and what is the goal, which unfortunately is what the press are telling people.

1. The Fediverse is about bringing down the walls (silos / walled-garden).

2. It never had the goal or objective or vision to replace Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram, Flickr, Blogspot.

The Fediverse software available today are the materialised ideas of developers who believe in a federated SocialWeb, which by the way, is the original #Web3 (not crypto). It goes all the way back to 2005 (probably earlier, I don’t have my notes).

The goal was to get existing silos to open up and federate.

It just that, there are more developers who are excited about it, so we started to see serious projects related to the Fediverse. If I remember correctly, Misskey was not a Fediverse project when it first started. So, one would say Misskey was the first non-federation project that joined the fediverse network.

If these silos don’t federate, it’s fine too, because there are existing software and instances available.

And it has always been about choice.

If users want to stay with silo #SNS by all means. The fediverse is not here to replace them, the fediverse is here as an option and as a solution to the issues plaguing silo networks (like ads, privacy, content license, to mention a few).

That’s what the fediverse is about and always have been to this day. It is never about replacing this and that, or recruiting people to switch over and encourage them to delete their silo SNS accounts. These other things were simply the passion and convictions of the users who migrated and some of the developers who developed fediverse software, it’s not part of the fediverse itself.

It’s just a protocol. Again, I’ll use email here. If you have a server, you can choose to install your own email software. The protocol is there. Various email software are there. OR, you can just use Yandex or Gmail or Zoho and use the custom domain feature (or use their email hosting services).

If Twitter and Facebook implement the protocol, hooray! Mission accomplished. If they don’t, that’s fine either.

So, yeah, people are hating that Instagram will implement the #ActivityPub protocol and join the #Fediverse network. They have valid reasons and it is understandable. However, the fediverse started to be a #WebStandard protocol to allow federation and bring back the #SocialWeb as it was intended to be.

For us who were there in 2005 already, and when the first Fediverse software and instance came online in 2008, that is still our vision and goal, to bring down the walls of silo SNS.
