If you put a direct link to a gif or video as the “link” of your post, I think it embeds automatically. But Lemmy right now does not support uploading videos directly.

I am not super knowledgeable about this side of thing - but it seems like the teams’ argument is that the Flyers signed DeAngelo a year ago and not the Canes, so this clause technically shouldn’t apply. Letter of the law vs the spirit of it.

We’ll see what the league says. I would imagine that if the trade is put on hold, plans would change after the free agent market opens, and this doesn’t end up happening.

Pictrs removes Exif data, yes. Most likely it removed the rotation data as well.

Not all “fun driving” is reckless driving. Endangering other people is never right of course. But the majority of people with car hobbies are very safe drivers.

If driving is not really your interest, that’s totally fine. I don’t personally see much appeal to it either. But that doesn’t mean you should yuck other people’s yum.

If the goal is to completely phase out ICE vehicles, shouldn’t we be welcoming technology like this? Some people are eager to embrace electric vehicles, which is great. Other people are more hesitant for many reasons.

If someone doesn’t want to buy an electric car because they’d have to give up a manual transmission (which many people prefer), this technology might change their mind. More people would buy electric cars.

And if you don’t really care about having a manual transmission in your car, then you can just ignore this technology altogether and buy a regular EV. Which is exactly why this article comes across so strangely - the author is complaining about tech that doesn’t really affect them whatsoever.

The author of this article just seems to fundamentally misunderstand (or deliberately ignore) why people like to drive. Just a lot of, “I don’t like it so nobody should.”

The backend is rust! The frontend is typescript with a react-type framework. So feel free to pitch in on the frontend if you are familiar with TS!

I am going to be honest, i don’t really know either, I just included it in my example because I know it’s federated

I think it’s a P2P YouTube alternative?

Kbin, Mastodon, Peertube, anything in the Fediverse adheres to ActivityPub standard, which is the protocol that all of these sites use to communicate.

This infographic can explain better than I can:

Not a stupid question at all!

Right now, lemmy.ml is the biggest Lemmy instance and the “flagship” site. There are several other Lemmy instances across the internet. They are all connected with each other - or “federated” - meaning each instance can see all of the posts of any instance it’s federated with. Since every instance is federated with each other, you will get the same content no matter where your account is. So even though you are on lemmy.world, you can see everything that is posted to lemmy.ml.

E.g. even though I’m from lemm.ee, i still saw your post!!

Holy hell

Or: ✅ are you a parent who gives their child permission to access this site?

This reminds me of those website ads that’d tell you to ask your parents first.

I pretty much completely cut news out months ago and my mental health has improved immensely. I totally get the importance staying knowledgeable and up to date on world news, but it was just too much for me.

This doesn’t auto archive your image. It’s only if you click on one of those archive links that it’s archived.

Chipping away at GTNH. I know it’s memed to death but it’s legit a great pack! The progression is tuned so well.

In terms of server load (CPU) Lemmy uses a separate service for uploading / storing images (pictrs). It runs on the same server but in the grand scheme of things it’s never a bottleneck. Typically static image uploads are cached so it’s not much effort for the server.

However uploading images direct to Lemmy does have a storage impact. I know my home instance (lemm.ee) has a 100kb size limit for uploads, others may do that too.

If you’re concerned about that aspect, you can use a separate image hosting service too. As long as the link in your post points directly to an image, it’ll embed fine.

From what I’ve heard this is (at least somewhat) fixed in the upcoming 0.18 release, which should be coming in the next several days

This is all hearsay though so don’t quote me

Hurricanes! (Does the c/anes thing work or is it cheesy?)

It does, so does ‘New’. But it makes all of the other posts jump around when you try to click on stuff. Not advised
