    It's important to note that Revolut is not a bank. Had it been a bank provable fraud would be protected up to 85k under FCA regulations.

    What kind of ***** runs a business out of a "e-money" company.

  • adam adam 3w ago 100%

    Hugo can be as simple as installing it, configuring a site with some yaml that points at a really available theme and writing your markdown content.

    It gets admittedly more complex if you're wanting to write your own theme though.

    But I think this realistically applies to most all static site generators.

    Black & White (2001) open source game engine sees a first release
  • adam adam 1mo ago 100%

    I wonder if they'll replicate the feature where a strange voice whispers your name (amongst other odd sounds) if you're playing in the early hours.

    Scared the crap out of me when that happened.

    Edit. Evidence https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6529 to show I'm not mad.

  • Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say
  • adam adam 2mo ago 100%

    How about you assume less? I spent 40+ minutes looking for this here, here, here and here and I'm already fairly familiar having done work on two other ActivityPub based projects.

    In addition public-addressing (or the lack of use thereof) in no way claims to achieve what you've stated - which is probably why it's not the answer to my query.

    Ahh, didn't even know there was a flag for that. I don't suppose you could link to the relevant w3c or FEP for it?

  • Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say
  • adam adam 2mo ago 100%

    All votes are public, they're literally broadcast to the Fediverse writ large. You vote on something on your server, your server then tells the server owning the thing you voted on and that server then tells anyone who is interested (subscribers on other servers). That way everyone knows that this comment was voted on, but that information is indelibly tied to you - an entity on the Fediverse.

    Lemmy devs just chose not to a) show that information in a UI (plenty of other software out there does) and b) not inform people that was the case. Which leads to the whole point of the thread, hiding this from users merely gives a false sense of security.

  • Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say
  • adam adam 2mo ago 88%

    You say that, but you simply have to be using something that isn't Lemmy and that information is there (doubly so if you're an admin on any of these systems)

  • Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say
  • adam adam 2mo ago 100%

    Except, if you're using anything other than Lemmy at this point that information is already about. The Likes/Dislikes are considered public information by the protocol. Lemmy devs probably just didn't get around to building out the UI for that before the Reddit APIcolypse.

    Space Marine 2 feels even more explosively, grimly, and hilariously authentic to the Warhammer 40,000 universe than the first game
  • adam adam 2mo ago 100%

    but humanity is evil too

    Emphasis on this. We humans have become Xenophobic Christofascists* turned up to 11. All aliens are bad** and anything against established doctrine is heresy of the highest order. Human labour is essentially free vs the gross expense of materiel so the leadership will think nothing of having entire generations of a planet mine out some toxic substance that kills before you age much past the ability to outbreed it.

    In short, anyone who claims humans are the good guys, is misguided at best.

    *EmperorFascists as the ruler is the Immortal God Emperor.

    ** Officially, but there exists means and people who can deal a little more diplomatically than with a gun.

  • This app makes your music sound way better when you lower the volume [Giveaway] - Android Authority

    I've used Wavelet for years, it really is excellent.

    The AutoEq improves things across the board for all the various headphones I use (Bose QC35s, 700s and my Nothing Ears), lots of clarity, much less boomy etc.

    This new feature is really nice. Being able to lower the volume and still audibly retain the sound profile is great.

    Lemmy Administration adam 12mo ago 100%
    New server (new admin), couple of questions

    Why, when I search for a community my instance is not yet aware of, does it sometimes not bring back any posts in that community? This community is in example of that. Most new additions will redline the CPU but then come back with a populated page for the community. Sometimes that doesn't happen and no amount of purging and retrying will cause it to. I'm currently unable to subscribe to anything on Beehaw. I just get subscription pending and there is no content sent my way. Statistically they're also more likely to encounter no. 1 above. Can I fix this?

    I’m getting some stutter/jank when scrolling my feed. I’m using compact mode if that helps. Not sure what else to add. I’m using version 0.2.4 which appears to contain (according to github) some related performance fixes but I’m still seeing it. https://imgur.com/0EN3TUQ This is a 60fps video slowed to 30fps and you can see it happening quite clearly. I don’t see this type of juddering on Voyager. But the MaterialU interface on Thunder is just ❤️

    I've just set up a new personal instance (this account is on it) but I'm apparently not able to subscribe to beehaw communities. When I click the subscribe button all I get is "Subscription Pending" no matter how much I refresh the page. Additionally, unlike communities on other servers the search for a beehaw one doesn't appear to bring down any posts. Is that normal?
