They should've stuck to v0.X versioning until it's ready. Makes no sense to up to v1 if it's still in alpha/beta

Bro would probably be more than 70 years old in 2050, good that he's off the streets

I like it for sports like footy because it captures its chaotic nature

Fucking hell got so confused by the title, was wondering what the fuck do these guys have to do with cricket.

baatliwala ,

Nobody needs to consider that because it's not a strange question at all.

Not OP but I've accidentally fingered another key a split second before hitting enter a few times. It's not implausible.

Kabaddi is a thing in India. It's not the same but similar-ish enough.

It was a great feature, would allow you to follow people with similar interests and create your own custom categorised circles.

How tf Americans don't have a holiday on voting day 😭

I mean ours in India are decently spread out by disctrict and they're all holidays in that area.

Both will probably use this as a point in a future anti competitive case against them. "See?! We can totally be friends with each other! We're definitely not going to use power to benefit only ourselves whenever we get the fucking chance to!"

This sounds basic enough that you'd almost certainly be able to do this with Tasker. It's not FOSS though.

Obsidian is one of those applications I sooo want to install because everyone loves it, but to me if I'm going through the pain of selfhosting I want to go FOSS only. Argh!

baatliwala ,

Only watch sports (footy/cricket/tennis) on TV and nothing else.

In very basic terms - GPL means that any modifications you make to a code base and distribute to public, you need to keep the license as GPL and open source all your modifications.

Once cloud started becoming a thing, the cloud vendors went "Well ackchyually🤓, the code changes we're making are hosted on OUR server so we're not technically distributing them to the public. So fuck you we have no obligation to make them open source".

Which is why AGPL exists so even server side code needs to be public. Since the application in question here is a backend service, it'll always be used server side and so any forks need to be open source.

TIL about Sublinks, a Java-based alternative to Lemmy's backend ( github.com )

Today I learned about Sublinks (here), an open-source project that aims to be a drop-in replacement for the backend of Lemmy, a federated link aggregator and microblogging platform. Sublinks is designed to be initially API-compatible with Lemmy, allowing existing Lemmy clients, such as Lemmy-UI, to integrate seamlessly....

Normally a breaking change means after you apply the change it's not easy/straightforward to rollback to the older version if you want to do that for whatever reason.

For example, a new version is released and underlying database table or structure changes. You upgrade properly, and find the new version has some bugs (or you simply don't like it). If you want to use the older version again until the newer one is fixed it's not a matter of simply point to old version.

As the database structure has fundamentally changed underneath in the new version, when you put back the old version it simply doesn't understand the new structure and might stop working. You need ways to be able to make the DB structure compatible with the older application.

If the application is stable the devs might provide ways to do this. But since this is an alpha... You're on your own.

TL;DR it means the older and newer version of the application aren't strictly compatible with each other

Barely 2 years ago I noticed that people were posting porn on Insta, and it was publicly visible just because they tagged as . I don't think this is possible now, but basically corporations are dumb and people posting disallowed content can be creative as hell.

Does it? I moved to Boost because I can't load past one page in Jerboa when viewing a community.
