Some instances like lemmy.world values stability over bleeding edge, and 0.19.3 has been stable for them. They do plan to upgrade to something newer eventually, it’s just that every migration carries a risk of something going wrong.

I was dissappinted to see most of the Dems sitting in silence, with tiny protestation signs as if they were at an auction.

C’mon, make some noise, get in trouble, but do something!

It would be underestimating Trump to think he doesn’t understand what tariffs do.

He’s backed by the richest men in the world, and he’s going scorched earth to make them richer.

He’s not stupid; he’s greedy, nefarious and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals of making America’s richest folks even richer at the expense of everything else.

Trump by himself is just a rambling old man. What is scary is the army of like-minded people worshipping him.

Not gonna complain to see investments made into an open platform.

I suggest whoever has old firmware files to upload them to the Internet Archive (if they allow those).

I dream of the day we can communicate over some kind of mesh network like Meshtastic. That’d be nice having a nearly ubiquitous coverage for free.

Canada is doing what every bully victim should do, stand up for themselves. These retaliatory tariffs are a consequence of striking us first.

But yeah, having a semantical image filter could do be a good first line, of course with human oversight.

Can you extract your cookie and pass it to yt-dlp?

AI trends

Yeah that part kinda sucks, but it’s not all bad. For example, there’s the offline translation engine that relies on a trained model that runs entirely locally, which is kinda neat and great privacy-wise.

I think you mostly just need to block incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org

I put the conditioner in my hair, then let it sit a couple of minutes while I wash the rest of my body. When I’m done I rinse it all in one go.

Unlike zombies, they avoid all kind of brain matter.

But there has been zero compassion for anything or anyone in this process

Reap what you sow, that’s your toll to own the libs

That way you can’t work around Microsoft getting a copy of your work no matter what.

Would you say that your game can be played entirely locally of you can’t save your game while offline?

I cannot fathom even using a software that ties a critical feature such as the ability of saving your work to an Internet connection.

At that point, if your software relies on the Internet to accomplish an important task, it doesn’t matter if the app is native or runs some code in your browser if some critical features depends on someone else’s system to work as expected.

Right, I think I found a lot of stuff for v3, but not that much for v4 and almost nothing for v5. I still managed to figure it out and I have a decent template now.

The worst is trying to find which version a post on StackExchange is about…

Just having an example with the most common tasks (ex: creating registry keys, registering DLLs or Fonts, etc) and having some comments in there with the common pitfalls to avoid would really go a long way.

I do appreciate v5 in a way, now that you don’t need a preprocessing step for the file, that you can use a wildcards for a directory, and you can just build a package in a single step is a great improvement. Maybe I was spoiled with Nullsoft and Inno Setup in the past 😬

I had to build a Windows Installer package using WiX Toolset, and v5 came out maybe 3-4 months at that point and the structure compared to v4 is quite different… that was fun trying to build something with lackluster documentation compared to v4. I gave a shot to ChatGPT, etc to help, but all it could spit out was a mess.
