I was very excited until I read this line
Python calculations run in the Microsoft Cloud, with the results returned into an Excel worksheet.
That’s an instant non starter for me.
Not to mention this integration seems very much focused around the graphing libraries of python and not using it for data processing. It’s not the ‘excel powered by python’ I dreamed of.
I mostly agree with you, the internet must change, and it’s changing for the good with these non-profit decentralized networks like Lemmy.
These companies abused the internet too much and it’s hit a breaking point. People are taking the power back. I look forward to a user-owned internet again where the content I see is not entirely controlled by corporate interests.
I think these websites will genuinely die within the next decade. There’s just never been decentralized social media(of this kind) to compete with them before.
Yeah, I saw this coming at least 5 years ago.
It’s the way Linus talks and acts, how their whole business revolves around a parasocial relationship with the viewers.
He actually became what he hated about NCIX so much.
Public key auth, and fail2ban on an extremely strict mode with scaling bantime works well enough for me to leave 22 open.
Fail2ban will ban people for even checking if the port is open.
Before people get worried about this, this is how literally any online service works. If you have an account anywhere, you trusted that service to not record your password.
Only exception is oauth, which actually might be a good idea for Lemmy.
That is a lot of words to say ‘they can’t see your password, but they can try to guess it. Make a secure password and you won’t have any problems’
Canadian problems :( and probably Australia too.
So many sports clips straight up not available here.
A ‘no take, only throw’ mentality.
You want descriptive answers? Make a descriptive question.
It can be as simple as ‘what is “x” and why?’
If you are logged in they still have access to your activity and usage statistics which they can sell to third parties.
So it’s true that you are not ‘directly’ generating profit for them in an easily measurable way, and they would consider you among the ‘freeloaders’ that they called all third party app users.
However, you still indirectly benefit them just by using the platform. Especially if you leave comments or post content. If you just use it, lurk at most and come to lemmy for the discussions.
I always use milliliters and grams for cooking, unless it’s measuring volume of something solid.
I also use time for long distances.
Edit: whoops I read the question backwards
Embedded media and media hosting in general.
I’m not sure what our solution is for this. A good CDN is tough to make. It’s one of the few things I’m pretty sure are better off being centralized.
Politics aside, yeah I would consider that a $500k ‘shack.’ The value clearly comes from the location.
Maybe that’s the point though? You were able to type it into a comment and have it pop up on our screen identically to the actual logo.
He wants people to type the symbol instead of ‘X’
You’re not just inconveniencing them, you’re literally causing hundreds of dollars in damage.
Damaging their car isn’t helping anyone, except for making yourself feel better, it’s such an immature way to respond.
It’s like punching someone for using racial slurs and derogatory terms. You’re not in the right to punch them.
An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind.
As shitty as people can be, it’s never appropriate to respond to non-damaging inconvenience with vandalism. That’s you stooping even lower than their level.
Username does not check out.
I kept my account purely to post the occasional comment telling people to move to Lemmy.
I mostly get downvoted because it turns out people don’t give a shit that Reddit controls everything they see and do.
His argument is essentially that people are not toxic enough in online meetings to innovate.
