404s for me. This link works: https://this-week-in-rust.org/blog/2023/11/08/this-week-in-rust-520/
But one of the requirements of eIDAS 2.0 is that browser makers trust government-approved Certificate Authorities (CA) and do not implement security controls beyond those specified by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
State-mandated backdoors seem bad
Edit: Not sure why, but many instances don’t show crossposts out of dbzer0.
In order for a post to show up as a crosspost, it must use the exact same URL, rather than re-uploading it each time. It looks like each crosspost so far has used a separate URL except your !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone crosspost.

I use Nitter Redirect, which redirects any twitter URL I visit to a Nitter equivalent.

So we’re scrapping the 26th amendment, huh?
Our current supreme court considers constitutional amendments to be unconstitutional, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they rule in favor of scrapping it
@Dolores@hexbear.net responding to your comment in an old megathread here, since that mega is locked:
very confused, is this a bug or does that comm have basically no upvotes? i’m seeing the highest at 3? how’d that get on anyone’s feed?
Votes from before federation don’t get federated, so old posts look like they don’t have votes until more people vote on them. It looks like there’s some votes now, though.
The prosthetic goes out way too far. Actual Bernstein:
I tried to find a comparable profile shot from Maestro, but they seem to be avoiding showing his direct profile, I couldn’t find one in the trailer
Threads can only display ads on their app
What is stopping them from adding ads to the website?
if lemmy.world adds ads, people can just not use the lemmy.world website
That’s what I imagine happening, a few people can’t stand it and leave or use uBlock, and the rest of the userbase gets served ads
As far as i know they cant force other apps to show ads
Not unless ads are a footer or something in post or comment content. That’s an intellectual property gray area, I wonder what will happen.
You can avoid that notification by switching to i3
They’re totally going to run ads
However Meta decides to serve ads on Threads or Threads content. Whatever it takes, Threads will definitely do ads, as they are owned by an advertising company, but we don’t really know how LemmyWorld will do ads until those ads are live.
It’s not the vaccine, but while you’re waiting, Covixyl (a nasal spray) is available over-the-counter and reduces viral load/severity for 4 hours
To anyone else waiting until the new vaccine is available in September, consider protecting yourself in the meantime with Covixyl, which is a nasal spray. It doesn’t keep you from getting COVID, but it reduces the viral load for 4 hours, so if you do get COVID, it will be less severe (though you should still get Paxlovid at that point regardless).
[…] it sounds like you’re arguing that the downtime is because of massive user registrations and not from an attack like they said themselves […]
I have no idea where their downtime is from. If it is DOS-related, though, they would protect against it using a DDOS protection service like CloudFlare, which costs $$$
Lemmy.world hasn’t done anything to suggest they would be a significant privacy and security risk to users, at least not yet
They have, though. The LemmyWorld admins doxxed a user who they believed (incorrectly) to be Hexbear admin CARCOSA@hexbear.net. Source: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/1754850
[…], pushing ads to federated servers or collecting and selling user data would absolutely change that I guarantee it.
We’ll see, but the larger they grow, the more permanent they get, and ads only affects that so much.
I didn’t and won’t go as far to accuse the instance owners themselves of being behind the attack but I won’t say it isn’t a user from Hexbear because nether you or I can prove that it isn’t.
Hexbear is not more suspect than other instances, and there is no reason to name-drop Hexbear, alone, in particular. If they’re being DOSed, then whoever is responsible is most likely involved in a community that has a culture of DOSing in general, like a Chan, maybe the same one that has actively been responsible for vandalizing Lemmy instances.
How do they expect to serve ads to people with that abysmal uptime that they have.
The probably see it differently, that their uptime is limited by their funding, and additional revenue would help uptime.
Maybe it will maybe they’ll be financially successful but I bet they’re probably also going to get defederated and therefore not platform successful.
The current logic I’ve seen about why instances continue to federate with LemmyWorld is that they’re “too big to fail”, the same logic applied to Threads, and I don’t see ads changing that. If Threads uses a more PR-friendly way of running ads when they inevitably do, maybe LemmyWorld will copy whatever ad-serving method that is.
[…] and that’s probably just from one person from hexbear who’s pissed at them, […]
You probably saw someone else say this, rather than making it up yourself, but Hexbear does not DOS anyone, please don’t repeat misinformation
They’re not risking legal troubles unless they receive and don’t comply with a DMCA takedown request. Like I said elsewhere, this is about making their site friendly to advertisers.
