Am also layman, but my understanding is that “dark matter” is just kind of a placeholder for some unaccounted for mass that’s detectable by inference. i.e. we can’t see anything that would produce that gravity, but we can detect that something out there has mass.

with black holes still an option for the behaviors we are seeing accounted to ‘dark matter’ why are we bothering with another, seemingly ephemeral type of ‘matter’?

That’s actually a theory that’s gaining traction again. Primordial black holes left over from the Big Bang are one contender for “dark matter”:

I set that up and put in the necessary bypass in Authelia for that route, but it seems to have borked my library in Calibre web and only like 10 of my books show up there now. The library seems fine in calibre desktops though.

Haven’t had time to dive in further though. I just used Calibre desktop to sync them over USB for the time being.

Main phone:

I finally found the source file for that. I posted a screenshot of my phone months ago and people were asking for it, but I had no idea where it was. A little late, but I guess I finally delivered lol.

Backup phone:

I always thought he looks like a lump of mashed potatoes that rolled into a pile of assorted barber hair

Interesting. I’ve only ever had success with cellular PPP when using #777 for carrier based DUN back before mobile broadband was a thing.

👏

This is also a test to see how well .gifv files work on Lemmy

Not sure what it looks like in other clients, but Tesseract rendered the embed_video_url as an mp4 video. It plays fine.

Not saying drugs haven’t ruined lives, but the war on drugs has ruined far more.

Yeah. Part of that is the same kind of nostalgic for me, but also I guess I miss the feeling of the internet being somewhere you go, deliberately, rather than always-on, always-connected, pinging me with attention-sucking notifications constantly.

Like when you sign into AOL messenger in the dial-up days. That was an indication you wanted to chat and had set aside time for it; it was like flipping the sign from “closed” to “open”. Now, you’re just always expected to respond.

Tesseract works like your option 1: Require typing the instance before credentials, and they’re on separate pages (though they wouldn’t strictly have to be). It then populates the sidebar/banner from the instance entered. The impostor / typo-squatting instance would have to match the site details, logo, banner, and spoof the activity stats (though the user would be expected to check what’s displayed is correct for the instance they’re logging into).

In a new manifesto, OpenAI’s Sam Altman…

LOL. I jokingly asked a few days ago if well-adjusted people ever write manifestos, and the answer is still “no”.

Lol I didn’t either.

I loved my OG Droid. Would love a modern phone in that same form factor.

Yeah, the whole thing is horseshit. Especially where they sped up the process while he was trying to work with them.

My area has a similar program for dilapidated properties, but there’s a whole process where they have to first get in touch with the owner (or barring that, prove they’ve tried and failed to contact them), and there are some additional barriers as well. They don’t just show up with demo equipment.

I get that there is a need to address dangerous properties/structures for safety reasons, but what they’re doing in Macon is beyond redemption and should be scrapped and taken back to the drawing board.

I’ll see your “WTF” and raise you a “JFC”

Rich bankrupt isn’t nearly as bad as regular people bankrupt.

Jones should get a court-ordered ankle bracelet, and every time someone loads that website, it sends out a shock. Each shock should act as a reminder to all the misery he’s inflicted on so many people.

I’m all but assuming the domain name will be pointing to a Russian IP address soon after it’s sold at auction.

MythTV?
