Have to say, I wasn't expecting this in my feed. It is a bit novel of a concept, but if you think about what it takes to build and ship a product, a lot of this makes sense, and modern languages are starting to follow the batteries included mentality (golang, rust).

There's even an ironic naming ecosystem that just lends itself to this personification: flatpak and containers.

Also, ML is just statistics and calculus.

It's also worth noting the statistics are only for what you consumed. My profile at beehaw shows very different numbers than yours

Love the jazz influences here.

Yep, but its only the Metadata[1]. I can't log in to your instance, but because your instance has consumed content from beehaw from my account I'm listed.

See https://lemmy.ninja/u/rknuu@beehaw.org

  1. at least I haven't been able to share logins between instances yet.

While the breach is unfortunate, I always enjoy these kind of posts where a seemingly innocent exploration on what a site is doing and "what if" questioning becomes a chain of "holy crap, what did we just find". Just shows that your data can be just one curl statement away from being lost.

Microsoft says the early June disruptions to its Microsoft’s flagship office suite — including the Outlook email apps — were denial-of-service attacks by a shadowy new hacktivist group. In a blog post published Friday evening after The Associated Press sought clarification on the sporadic but serious outages, Microsoft confirmed that that they were DDoS attacks by a group calling itself Anonymous Sudan, which some security researchers believe is Russia-affiliated. The software giant offered few details on the attack. It did not comment on how many customers were affected.

Hey people, we're trying to keep things tidy at beehaws technology community for reddit content and will be delisting this thread.

If you'd like to continue the conversation, feel free to join the megathread at https://beehaw.org/post/576904

Hey Beeple, since there's a common trend on the topics on (de)federation, we made a post to clarify what this means.

You can see the conversation over here: https://beehaw.org/post/615042

Unfortunately, the inconvenience is something of a catch 22. Do we allow everything through for the sake of convenience? What happens when extreme content that is NSFL gets posted? What happens when illegal content is federated, or hate speech that indicates action will be taken is made? What happens when you observe a pattern of this behavior from a common source? Content must be moderated for things to be "safe" and the rate that unsafe, nonaligned content was coming in wasn't sustainable.

Choosing to defederate wasn't taken lightly and it was done reluctantly. It was discussed for two days after observing systemic effects from those instances and after reaching out to the instance admins for alternatives.

I see you're posting not from a beehaw account, which means you likely haven't seen @Gaywallet@beehaw.org 's post on what it is to be a community and the framework to get there. This posts may help you understand this instances stance on things and what our instances users are hoping for is to build.

All in all, sorry you're not happy, but we're being careful for our community.

Unfortunately, defederating means the cord has been cut. This means we still have what was previously been posted, but all future content is bidirectionally blocked.

[–] rknuu@beehaw.org 19 points 1 year ago (3 children)

This is true, except for one element:

Fediverse should mean a user of any instance should be able to use any community the instance elects to federate with. Lemmy is open by design, but instances can just as easily switch that feature off and go to a allowlist method.

A commonly missed element with federation is that you federate with who you trust since you essentially mirror their content. It's less apparent with the lemmy migration, but mastodon used to caution its users to "join an instance that aligns with your preferences" for this reason.

Federation is really a philosophy about mutual trust, just like how email providers can block messages by user, instance, or domain.

Trust me, there's likely more gating present than you're aware of. Maybe not at lemmy.world (which as of this post is only blocking one site for reasons I won't mention), but this can get dark pretty quick if you leave things completely open.

Also on gitlab instances

Really takes the complications out of hosting if you can build things as a JAM style site.

Hey beeple, we're trying to keep the discussion on reddit centralized on beehaw in the thread: https://beehaw.org/post/576904

Let's move over to there

 

Here's a beat to pump you up today.

[–] rknuu@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Hey folks, with the surge of posts on reddit in recent days, we've been centralizing the discussion in our megathread.

Feel free to continue the chat over here:

A new video from Nick at The Linux Experiment. I'm also sharing the PeerTube version for the sake of trying to expand my use of PeerTube and try to expand my video platform use beyond just YouTube.

Origa - DIVA (music.youtube.com)
 

One of my first international songs I listened to; has such a haunting melody.

 

Chiptune theme of the day for me :)

I've noticed several community announcement threads being created in !music@beehaw.org and thought that it might be best to centralize the advertisements in a single thread to help with discoverability and longevity. I'll attempt to keep this post up-to-date as folks add comments for new communities.

Also, this isn't a replacement for https://browse.feddit.de/.

The directlink sends you directly to the owning instance's content (useful if your instance hasn't indexed the community yet, as the second link might come back with a 404 until it has been indexed). The second link is "universal" and will keep you local to your own instance (useful when trying to subscribe).

So, without further ado, here's the list:

Music Styles

Artist Specific

Music Focused Instances

Communities and Music Discussion
