Avatar is a lemming in bed because this account wasn’t intended to be used except for creating communities… and then my instance announced it was closing.

In the interests of Linux commands generally being short abbreviations, I suggest “pls”.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Newish to Fediverse - do I use one account across all services?English
1·5 days agoI don’t know if it uses that system, but NeoDB lets you sign in with a Mastodon account too. It’s also fully Mastodon compatible, so you can add it to a client and use it as a basic Mastodon/microblog account if you want. It uses (a modified version of?) Takahē on the backend, a project which sadly appears to have been abandoned.

4·6 days agoIn addition, you can interact with other services from one account, but not necessarily use them fully.
So as above ^^^ at least one account per service is advisable.

Movies@lemmy.world•I'm interested in movies that disappear immediately...English
1·6 days agoI did read it. Everybody’s scared of Trump’s regime. I get it. Bit it wasn’t “disappeared”, merely kept under the radar. If it had been “disappeared” there’d be no trace of it and you wouldn’t be able to stream it.

1·7 days agoSo, no, then. Just not promoted heavily probably to avoid it “being disappeared”.

4·7 days agoThere are a lot of films at the cinema which only seem to be on for a week at most. Blink and you’ll miss them. I don’t think anybody’s intentionally “disappearing” anything; they just aren’t considered a big enough draw to show for any longer.
+1 for NetSurf, I wrote the Amiga GUI for that.

8·9 days agoHe might “only” narrate them now, but he used to go out and film them as well as being a big advocate for conservation.

cats@lemmy.world•In pictures: Larry the Downing Street cat's 15 years at No 10English
5·14 days agoBut have there been any mice investigations? I think not!
{Insert joke about vermin in government here}
Keel did their “mini motsu” range with hearts a few years back (suspect they do it every year). They have dragons!

Oh, this is similar to 3218.

Daily Bunnies@lemmings.world•Daily bunny no.3227 shouldn't have left the window openEnglish
3·17 days agoThat is not what I was expecting to have come in through the window.
I worked for a company that did mainframe software (although I’m not sure if it actually was mainframe or just some sort of UNIX on the backend). A large part of my job involved using it, as obviously we used it in house too.
Anyway, that had PF keys, and if I remember correctly, it involved pressing Ctrl-F followed by the number, so it wasn’t the same as actual Function keys.

Daily Bunnies@lemmings.world•Daily bunny no.99 (somewhere in here is a joke about artist's block)English
1·17 days agoMissed a trick there - the blocks should have the letters B, U, N, N and Y on them.

Casual Conversation@piefed.social•What did you think about bad bunny's performance at the superpower?English
12·19 days agoDidn’t see it, but the bunny pissed off Trump so I’m guessing it was amazing.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's with companies naming things "MyNoun"?English
1·22 days agoIt doesn’t anymore. I think they dropped the My with Vista? Certainly it was gone by Windows 7.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Vibe Coding Is Killing Open Source Software, Researchers ArgueEnglish
51·23 days agoI don’t EVER want to have to maintain or extend Claude generated code.
I think this is the crux of it. I’ve experimented with getting AI to fix things, create code blocks. It’s really impressive what it can do.
Except, yeah, the code is an utter mess. On the surface it looks good, but when you dig into it it’s totally unmaintainable.
I got it to write some Grok patterns for some logging software, mostly because there were so many variants on logs from some piece of software that it would have been a nightmare to do it all manually without missing something (and I’m lazy and wanted to see if it could be used for this).
It did it and they work (after a few revisions). However it has created a separate pattern for every little variation. If I’d done it by hand I would have used more complex patterns, but less of them. As a result, any tiny little problem requires changing about four different patterns.

I only like the old style earphones that sit in the ear. Those bottom ones look way too bulky to be comfortable or not fall out, and the silicone tip ones - sod stuffing something like that in my ear.
I currently own the Sennheiser MX365 (looks like the MX375 is the updated and still available version) and they are great!
