@dbattistella is this a part of their scanning process or just something they do for silly copyright reasons?

nini fediverse

@kemona_halftau same (but I never really looked much into it)

@kemona_halftau I wish there was a standard way to do it that worked on all wayland compositors (and I think there needs to be one in order for wayland to be an acceptable replacement for X11)

@frogTheSecond with coreboot you wouldn't even need UEFI, you can just have coreboot execute the kernel directly as a payload

@niko @maddy I think it it depends on if GoToSocial sends a delete for the old user on migration. Account deletions are irreversible on Pleroma (and Akkoma) because they do not differentiate between local deletions and remote deletions, but not all software deletes the account on migration (mastodon I think does not)

@yassie_j

@kemona_halftau I liked the docking port, but on the other hand, the advantage of thunderbolt/usb-c docks is that they work with any laptop with a thunderbolt/usb-c port rather than having to have a separate one for each kind of laptop. also there is actually a side docking connector on the newer models that I forgot about (it's just a thunderbolt port next to a proprietary ethernet port), although I've never used it and I can't imagine it's as nice to use as the older docks (you certainly wouldn't be able to just lift the laptop out of it since the connector is on the side)

@hexaheximal are you sure it's working at all?

@hexaheximal mmap! (but even without that, why do you need to load the entire song into a buffer at once?)

@kemona_halftau nini!

@mkljczk that sounds easy to change by just biting yourself

(unrelated but why is the language of this post set to de?)

@kemona_halftau good thing you have the last generation of thinkpad to have a mechanical docking port, and those docks are really cheap now (like £10 or less) because they're not compatible with anything newer

I like expanding abbreviations like "techbro" ("technology brother") and "aibro" ("artificial intelligence brother") fully

@hexaheximal the only thing is, if you're not in SEPA (which is not the same as the EU - I am in SEPA but not the EU), it might be more expensive/difficult to pay your membership fee (but the fee waiver amendment also passed, so that can be waived if you cannot pay (for example due to high bank fees))

@hexaheximal you do not need to live in the EU to be an e.V. member (I am and I do not)
