I have a racknerd KVM VPS running a socks5 proxy and a mastodon instance. It's been great!

Watching every platform ruin itself to become a facsimile of every other platform is deeply infuriating and exhausting

Thank goodness I had to say the pledge every day in school or I might have forgotten that we actually have liberty and justice for all while reading this

I would argue that it's not even modernized. It's just the same argument.

On lemmy, you could literally just start the same community on another server. If other people agree with you about space, the new community will become the "default" one. don't really think anybody even has the ability to become "too powerful" because they are neutered the instant the base url changes.

Federation is important but not a mandatory strength of Lemmy (toad.work)
 

I just think it's important to remember that, while federation and interoperability are HUGE HUGE features (and, ultimately, the purpose) of Lemmy but I do believe that it's important to remember that there is still incredible value in a Lemmy instance that is siloed to a particular group of people and/or whitelist federated with specific other servers.

There is power in being able to create a private community with this functionality and use-cases for organizations, private groups, and whoever else to have siloed instances like this.

You could have a Lemmy server on-prem at work just for relevant work things with coworkers. You could make one for your neighborhood. You could make servers dedicated to mutual aid that federate with only eachother to further your cause and reach.

This is probably what the internet was supposed to be.

This is pretty fucking banana sandwich. Very impressive and may even help you understand compsci a bit better.

Here's an AI generated summary of the video:

In the video "I Made a 32-bit Computer Inside Terraria," the creator shares their remarkable accomplishment of constructing a fully functional 32-bit computer simulation within the popular game Terraria. They utilized the game's wiring mechanics to create complex circuits and successfully developed a computer capable of executing instructions and storing data. The video mentions future plans to create a simplified version of Terraria within the game as the next milestone. The project is open-source and can be found on GitHub for further exploration.

Just redacted 13 years of interaction and helping people on Reddit (toad.work)

It honestly feels good. I have been mentally divorced from reddit since they doubled down on their API fuckery. I enjoyed my time there but, at this point, I don't have the energy to move anywhere but forward. I'm glad to have stripped Reddit of my content.

Here's to starting another life. I hope we can make it a good one.

(URGENT) Lemmy has an XSS vulnerability in the sidebar (toad.work)
 

cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/923025

lemmy.world is a victim of an XSS attack right now and the hacker simply injected a JavaScript redirection into the sidebar.

It appears the Lemmy backend does not escape HTML in the main sidebar. Not sure if this is also true for community sidebars.
