why can't we have federated identity ?
  • But do we need some kind of SSO layer with DID verification? All I need to prove my identity anywhere, technically, is my private+public keypair. As long as I hold on to this keypair, distribute it between apps/computers, back it up, I could log in anywhere on a federated platform and use it.

    I hope we're going to see key-based decentralized identity on ActivityPub at some point... Having accounts tied to instances is just not very robust or scalable.

  • What guitar picks do you use, and why?

    I have been playing (just for fun) for about 15 years. During which I have tried countless different types of guitar picks.

    Recently I'm gravitating towards really thick picks, like the well-known Jazz III or Big Stubby 3.0mm. I've noticed I can play fast alternate picking and triplets much easier with these.

    What types of picks do you use, and why?

    My „Partinez“ - some kind of partscaster
  • Ah you're right, I had assumed since it was a humbucker the two rows would be aligned straight, but now I see the coils are in line with the strings as they should be. Fascinating guitar OP. Nice work.

    The 80's and 90's are long gone, you need to treat the Switch with some respect

    Nintendo must be thinking: <in Japanese> Yall are still doing this?

    My „Partinez“ - some kind of partscaster
  • I'm curious why you went with the (reversed?) angle on the bridge humbucker pickup? I've never seen anything like it.

    Ah I just noticed it's a lefty. But yeah, why the angled humbucker?

    YSK: One of Bowser's Koopa Kids is named Lemmy
  • Most of the Koopa kids were named after musicians

    • Wendy O. Williams from the Plasmatics
    • Iggy Pop from Iggy Pop & The Stooges
    • Roy Orbison, the songwriter and rock & roll legend
    • Lemmy Kilmister from Motörhead
    • Ludwig van Beethoven, obviously
  • Yunohost/Lemmy
  • YunoHost "packages" are just scripts. In the case of Lemmy, Lemmy_ynh's install script actually fetches the Lemmy Docker image and extracts the files (including pre-built binaries) from it. And then it writes the config files to use the system Psql instance instead of a containerized version.

    FWIW I don't care how YunoHost installs the apps. Whether it's fetching and running containers, or building from source, or grabbing binaries. As long as the apps work and the reverse proxy gets wrangled it's fine with me. Just in this case refusing to run the Docker images directly is, at least momentarily, a problem for updating the app.

  • Yunohost/Lemmy
  • Well it is "working" for me. I'm using a YunoHost Lemmy 0.16.7 to type this comment :). But I agree there should be some kind of warning on the project that it's only really partially working, and very outdated (thanks to the recent flurry in activity and changes).

    Mainly though I wish YunoHost would just support Docker idiomatically and install Lemmy "as intended". Yeah Docker can be a bit of a pain and it uses more resources, but it also has many real advantages like siloing the apps from the host system..

  • Yunohost/Lemmy
  • Were you able to migrate your database from an outdated YunoHost installation to a v18 Lemmy running in Docker? I like YunoHost but I'm considering the same move, as this old Lemmy version has a lot of incompatibilities and other issues.

  • Yunohost/Lemmy
  • The main blocker, at least so far, was Lemmy is designed mainly to use use Docker containers to version itself and its main dependencies like Postgresql, while YunoHost runs on the bare system. And since YunoHost is still on Debian 11 it only has access to Postgresql 13 while Lemmy now wants 15. This unfortunately is hard to resolve. YunoHost doesn't want to introduce Docker, and upgrading the entire platform to Debian 12 is slowly happening but it's a lot of work.

  • Megathread for Reddit News & App Shutdowns
  • If they really do shut off API access I'll go into partial link aggregator withdrawal. My Lemmy instance still isn't upgraded to the latest versions which are compatible with apps, so I don't browse on my phone.
