  • Dude is incredibly stupid, because he’s been ordering under-cooked burgers without any conception of what he’s requesting for “Bob”-know-how-long.

    He might like medium-cooked burgers, but he has no idea what that even means. The food at the hotel isn’t less-safe than other places. They just didn’t assume he read the fine-print at the bottom of the menu and were the first to inform him that it’s not safe.

    Yeah, they delivered the waiver at the wrong time, but dude should’ve already known what he was ordering wasn’t safe. I order over-easy, soft-boiled, and sometimes sunny-side-up eggs. I know the risks, and I accept them.

    Unless you put an a ton of effort into it, ground beef is only safe well-done. To get safe under-cooked ground beef, you need to discuss your intentions with your butcher and grind the beef yourself. Even with grinding a single, quality cut of beef, you’re still gambling.

    Also, fuck you, I’m not your friend guy, here’s a rocket ship ().():::::::::::::::::D~~~~~~~



  • Yeah, this is one of those constant annoyances that you kinda just live with. It doesn’t matter that much, because compound words were at some point not one word, and there may be separate words that you use today that will join together during your career. Electronic mail became e-mail became email. As long as the casing doesn’t hide the meaning, you’re doing it right. Also be consistent. Don’t recreate such monstrosities as XMLHttpRequest.







  • Thank you! Here’s the actual PDF doc of their clarifications and here’s the original DSA

    The specific language for number of users is:

    average monthly active recipients of their service in the Union, calculated as an average over the period of the past six months

    And the definition of active recipient:

    (p) ‘active recipient of an online platform’ means a recipient of the service that has engaged with an online platform by either requesting the online platform to host information or being exposed to information hosted by the online platform and disseminated through its online interface;

    So you just need 45 million EU citizens looking at a platform to qualify as a VLOP. Amazon probably qualifies, but it would be easy for them to prove they were unfairly discriminated against as well.

    Thats interesting that ALL insrances are automatically federated.

    If nobody on an instance is subscribed to any communities on another instance, they don’t actively talk to each other. This means that if you’re the first to subscribe to a community, you may not be able to see stuff from before you subscribed from your local instance. Once you subscribe, your local instance will start copying stuff from the other instance to its local database.


  • I think on Lemmy the default is everything is federated, so unless lemmy.sdf.org has specifically blocked the instance, you can subscribe to its communities. You can check the Instances page to see any instances we’re blocking (none at the moment). Don’t worry if the instance isn’t in the list, once you subscribe to a community on it, the instance will be added to the list.

    To subscribe to a community, you need to search for it from the lemmy.sdf.org instance. For example, if you wanted to subscribe to the Rust community on programming.dev, search for !rust@programming.dev on the search page. You will probably have to search multiple times and wait up to 10s for the community result to “pop” in, and sometimes it’ll say no results before the community shows up.






  • As a software dev, so much this.

    PWAs are super fucking cool, but current web browsers are a SuperFund disaster site, so they make PWAs suck, and PWAs are partially to blame as Google and Apple keep adding features to browsers to mirror their phones’ native features. Every PWA is going to be slower than a native app for the foreseeable future, regrettably, and they’ll always be nothing more than a browser with the decorations hidden.

    I hate this reality with a passion, but native apps are faster because it’s an app on your phone and not an app in a browser on your phone.

    PWAs are great, because Apple and Google have no say in whether or not you can use them, and they get no cut if you spend money through them (scumbags at Apple taking 30%).


  • Hello peeps! I’m delial (/dɛlaɪəl/). I heard about SDF from a random comment on HN about 5 years ago, and I immediately fell in love. I tend to be a lurker, but I hang out on Mastodon and post occasionally.

    I’m a professional software dev, and I sling code all day. C# for pay; Rust, Bash, Python, and recently Awk for fun. I have my own little homelab that I’ve been exploring Linux network administration with. Besides that, I watch a lot of horror movies and collect books and comics.
