I’ve thought about doing this myself but my GMail account is so ingrained in everything I don’t think I’d be able to untangle the mess.

Are there any big issues you see coming up with doing this, long standing accounts not letting you change email, etc?

Do you plan on keeping the old account around for a period to catch any services you might have forgotten about?

Be interesting to see a follow-up once you’re done to see what kind of pain it causes.

The difference between screwing around and science is writing it down.

So the main part of a computer that controls everything has a specific set of things it can do. Imagine that each of these things can be triggered by a button on a control panel.

Every company making this part of the computer has their own set of things and layout for the buttons to trigger them and you have to pay them money to learn what the things are and how to press the buttons.

RISC-V offers a set of things and a button layout that the community can freely see and use.

In this example a computer program is just the list of instructions saying which buttons to press in what order.

My wife has lived in the UK for 20 years on an EU passport, she was 12 when she moved here, she is directly impacted by general elections as are all of us who live in the UK. This is the first year she can vote in one of these elections because we finally scrapped the money together to apply for her citizenship.

How does someone who has not lived in the country for 50 years have more of a say than the people living here. It doesn’t make sense.

This is starting to feel like their way of blocking Fallout London from releasing indefinitely.

You have forever changed the way I communicate from this day on.

Niagara launcher

It’s a minimalistic approach, you get one widget at the top of the screen and then a handful of favourite apps.

There’s no app draw instead you scroll an alphabet on either side of the screen to find apps.

Works really well if you have a lot of apps and you want to find them by name.

In the paid version you can have multiple widgets but they stack in the one spot and you have to swipe between them.

It’s perfect if you want an uncluttered launcher.

In addition to features for migrating communities and accounts I think the ability to set up a special type of instance that just archives everything from all the instances it’s federated to would be a huge benefit.

Something along the lines of an instance that doesn’t allow new content to be created, only consumed. This way if an instance were to permanently close we could migrate it’s communities to other instances from the archive.

This could also extend to migration of lost accounts, though ensuring the original account holder is the one making a request could become a nightmare of an overhead. The situation could be improved though if lemmy got some sort of feature for linking accounts across multiple instances.

My wife added ABBA’s Dancing Queen to our driving playlist for our first long trip. Silence into a deafening piano slide half way through the drive was an interesting way to nearly die from shock.

Basically.

I build on my laptop and then add to the repo stored on my NAS.

I’ve also got chaotic-aur set up as they tend to build the bulk of what I need from the AUR so I only have to build the more niche packages I use.

I did something similar with Puppet a while ago, it also runs as root so hot the same problem.

My solution was to set up my own package repo for the AUR packages I needed and just build them periodically. This way I only have to build them once for all the machines.

Used to have a coal fire when I was growing up in the 90s, rural Wales, was able to heat our water too.

Nothing beats a baked potato cooked under a coal fire.

The previous gorilla was called Sourceforge and it’s still cowering in the corner.

We’re just waiting on the next young gorilla to step up and make a challenge.

Honestly with the way the world is at the moment I think they should have moved it forwards again this year.

Things aren’t the same as last year they’re getting worse and that should have been reflected.

They’re them at the glowing bit until it’s dark.
