I hate this so much. Literally stopped using Perl and switched to PHP to get away from the "Look, ma! I can condense 6 comprehensible lines to one complete gibberish line that still works!" crowd.
I'm not saying I won't use shorthand if/else format on very rare occasions where you have to do a bunch of different if else's within your HTML for some reason, but in general, I try to avoid it.
Huh. I actually did do a search first, but apparently not well enough. Welp, that explains it, lol!
I mean… while I defend the right of Israel to defend themselves from attacks, they're basically committing genocide in the name of "defense" by not discerning between innocent Palestinians and Hamas. And thus, they have become the bad guys through their bad actions and are getting a lot of hate over it.
COP has been 110% co-opted and hamstrung.
Yes, but I remember numerous people being like "Well he could never win against Trump, so I'm voting for Biden."
Just checking in to say I got it working here. I have a bog standard lemmy.ml account and it was just repeatedly giving me incorrect login errors until I removed the account and re-added it. Once I re-added it everything suddenly started working as expected again. So if anyone is still unable to log into lemmy.ml after updating, that seems to be the path forward. Just remember, Remove is sliding left on your account name. Not the same as Account Deletion!
(BTW, the Remove vs Delete UI is pretty obscure and very terrifying. Hiding the option to Remove behind a slide feature and leaving the nuclear option out in the open is… not ideal IMHO. I personally think you should have 2 buttons visible if you’re even going to implement permanent account deletion from an instance at all. Did not check whether there are multiple “are you sures” on the Account Deletion one, but I sure hope so!)
Slightly OT, but this is also why we absolutely need ranked voting ASAP. How much better would a candidate like Sanders do if people knew that voting for him as first choice and Biden as second was possible?
It's Americanized Mexican, at best. Personally, I cannot stand the taste though, so I'm also not the best judge probably.
They do have a "Don't show this again" button, so at most this will enrage the people it does enrage only once.
Eugen seems pretty savvy about making a quality product that works well out of the box. Mostly when things fail on Mastodon it's because the goals for the feature were different that what a lot of new users coming over from Twitter assume they would be. (And sometimes those goals were good and sometimes they were kind of nonsensical, like the by-design feature of not being able to quote-post.)
I mean it’s pretty much the same as Twitter? All your posts are public* and anyone can follow you unless you activate the follower approval option. It’s the first thing I did when I created my Mastodon account. (And the first thing I did on Twitter as well.)
Really? I rarely get spam at my Yahoo account that gets past the filter. 🤔
Image-based AI doesn’t bother me nearly as much although I strongly believe it should be required to have digitally embedded markers to tag it as AI-generated.
Also, it is somewhat hilarious to me that all those people who willingly gave their content to Meta are now reaping what they sowed.
Text-based AI is the real danger though as it pollutes the Internet at large with AI-generated misinformation and is much harder to tag as AI-generated.
