I mean tbh they're free to do as they wish as long as they're abiding by our TOS and guidelines

While adding a CC license on a comment is questionable on the aspect of viability, it doesn't violate any of our community rules

Please do not gatekeep unless you see justification for the prevention of something

recursive_recursion , 5 days ago (edited 5 days ago)

Please do not make personal attacks,

• as they will not help progress your case in adding CC licenses to your post/comments

recursive_recursion , 5 days ago

hmm

realistically what would happen for those reports is that warnings would be given,

• after that it would mainly depend on the reported user in question

---

I have a suggestion for addressing the sources of harassment
I'd like to point out a couple of main concerns:

• you might want to [figure out/explain to the public]:
  • how and why adding the CC license would protect your comments/posts from LLM data collection
• when being harassed or intimidated, try not to engage/reciprocate with rage or hate [MadMax_That's_bait.gif],
  • if you do it'll make you less trustworthy to outsiders peering in,
    • this I learned painfully from experience
• try to ask questions as it can help you learn truths of every situation,
  • and typically the path to truth can help you figure out solutions to problems

as one of the instance mod/admin's I'd say that evidence would help expedite the report process but it's totally optional

depending on what the thing being reported is sometimes evidence isn't needed

• for anything that's blatantly negative/unpleasant, evidence isn't typically needed when reporting a post/comment

• for anything else that someone might find subtly "off", 2 pieces of evidence could help us figure out what's wrong

  • as a systems analyst having as much information to determine what happened and how things got to this way can help others and myself determine what the best way forward could be
  • for example some users might just need a warning/clarification based on my own interactions

yes deleting files wouldn't violate GPL-3.0 to the best of my knowledge as those files would still be under the GPL license,

• it's just that you wouldn't be using them

if anyone wanted to use a file licensed under any of GPL licenses the user would be required to license any modified or redistibuted files under the same license ("or later") as to not violate the copyleft terms

recursive_recursion , 15 days ago

that is correct👍

recursive_recursion , 15 days ago (edited 15 days ago)

for the "or later" clause I'm assuming that there is clarification in the license to state that the license must be validated by the GNU organization or states that it must be a later/newer "GNU" based license

• this is my assumption, I would have to reread (once I'm back home) the license to confirm for sure

The main difference between GPL-2.0 and 3.0 (if I remember correctly) is closure/addressing the Tivoization loophole that exists in GPL-2.0

Licensing is still confusing, even after more than a decade.

- totally fair, unless you're a lawyer or someone with OCD like me, no person would want to spend time reading all of the licensing terms/clauses

By chance the fediverse might've developed a resilient antibody and regeneration system:

due to allowing federated communities with transparent moderation logging it means that users are free to choose from a plethora of instances to set up camp and create

back on reddit it wasn't possible as there was only one without connections so it acted like a walled garden but now with the spread of Activitypub, it might be difficult for a singular company to have full control unless they're able to offer better services than what's currently available

just a guess but I'd reckon that at minimum 51% of users that care about privacy and security would choose a FOSS instance rather than a closed-source proprietary one

and as time passes I'd imagine that capitalistic instances would decay over time due to insufficient funding and/or user retention as their primary goal would be to squeeze their users which isn't a sustainable model

recursive_recursion , 1 month ago

amusingly much like here and elsewhere on the fediverse, reminding people they have to engage/talk to others to get any engagement.

eww, do people really do that here on lemmy?

• I really hope not as engagement should be natural and not forced onto people🌻

wouldn't that open up additional vulnerabilities?

As someone who recently wrote a security bulletin on the xz Utility for my class assignment this was another interesting, much less horrifying but still important read than the xz util's forum discussion which gave me tech existentialism/Y2K and Guilty Gear vibes.

Pretty sure steampunk fans might be a bit upset but I REALLY don't think humanity is ready to jump on the amish bandwagon

Just a heads up but your codeberg link returns a 404 not found

• Edit: huh it's just the embeded link that does that, strange

besides that I really like your project, it hits all the right spots for me in terms of languages used, features being implemented, and in addition the interface also looks nice!✨

hm

this tells either one of two situations:

1. Mozilla is knowingly partnering with Onerep (an unreputable company).

or

2. An insufficient background check was performed before partnering with Onerep.

either way it might be prudent to not use Mozilla Monitor until further information/details are disclosed.

mm I'll try to give Moonpie's your guide a go in a VM

• Edit: oh lol/derp I somehow missed that moonpie is you😂, having a real brainfart it seems

reading their your guide I saw on the bottom

"Arch’s PKGBUILD, makepkg, and patch tools to patch the grub_efi_get_secureboot function of sb.c "

so I took a look at the repo and found: grub-install on EFI if forced #141 which was merged on Nov 13, 2023.

• not sure if this is relevant but thought I'd share what I've found

anyways thanks for your comment and I also appreciate the helpful links

thank you!🤗

There's a couple things I've noticed while using Lemmy and Mastodon:

Admins and moderators have a sort of distributed power as it's somewhat no longer consolidated to a single instance like Reddit anymore,

• and so there's more incentive to making good decisions for not only for oneself but for the collective (reason being long-term instance sustainability)
  • therefore this system is likely to incentivize admins and moderators to make better long-term decisions rather than chasing short-term goals.
  • anytime I see systems that encourages people to make better long term decisions that makes me happy :D

additionally the fediverse gives more leeway to user choice as you're no longer locked down to an instance

• (this of course changes based on the instance federation/defederation situation which stems from the instance admin's/admins' past and current actions.)
• this allows users to participate on multiple communities using one account instead of having to create multiple accs

the emergent complexity of the systems that builds the fediverse seems like it's currently on a good path for building sustainable homely communities, so I'm cautiously optimistic

so far there's areas I can see that could use some QOL improvement for online discussions boards/forums and Lemmy's current systems seems like a good point to branch out from

my method for running Android apps on my distro is to run an Android 9.0-r2 VM on QEMU/KVM via virt-manager

maybe this might work for you?

here’s a guide I found for setting up Virt-manager on Ubuntu

and here’s a vid for setting up Android x86 on Virt-manager

• not sure if this is the exact same vid I used but it should suffice

hope this works/fits your use case!

That's pretty neat! I didn't know about Waydroid till now

however you need to mess with ARM emulation.

not sure about Arch as I'm on NixOS now and the implementation seems to be straightforward but I'll keep an eye on your note if I do encounter issues

thanks!🤗

As swap is recommended just in case all RAM is maxed it’s better to have a swap partition as swap files have certain limitations when in combined use with BTRFS:

• "subvolume - cannot be snapshotted if it contains any active swapfiles"
• has a chance to fragment
• has issues with hibernation (that I’ve personally encountered multiple times)

here’s the link for more info: man.archlinux.org/man/btrfs.5#SWAPFILE_SUPPORT

after switching to a swap partition with BTRFS I’ve experienced no issues for a user configuration

recursive_recursion , 4 months ago (edited 4 months ago)

Make a subvolume only for the swapfile.

doesn’t this kinda defeat the purpose/benefits of using a swapfile?

This is true for all files. Is it a bigger problem for swap?

specificly swapfiles yes, for swap partitions nope

How long ago did you have these issues?

Dec 2022, was still using and testing with swapfiles then and said fuck it as it caused too much problems.

I can’t rule out user error till I retest and strictly “follow the guide to the T” as I made modifications while following the same Arch guide for swapfile with BTRFS

edit:
also for clarification, I’m still not sure which one is optimal/best as I initially thought that using swapfile was forward thinking for the future, I’m using and recommending swap partitions as it seems to be the easiest to implement once and use continuously without any problems atm.

recursive_recursion , 4 months ago

From the BTRFS manual:

“Nodatacow implies nodatasum, and disables compression.”

“Datasum implies datacow”

Based on these notes I’d assume that since swapfile disables COW that it also disables checksumming which is where the risk of fragmentation occurs

I could be wrong tho

Thank you for the detailed reply!🤗

it doesn’t suffer from the raid write hole like BTRFS

if so, then that’s pretty awesome🎉
