Xkcd: Earth Temperature Timeline
That's scary. I think everyone should see this one.

It’s official — LCD TVs won’t see any further development.
I'd love to have an OLED tv. I just need a good reason to get one. The tv I have now works just fine (unfortunately).

Is anyone defending the Rebuilders?

Oh, I see. But what do you think of this translation:
"Company Foo makes TVs and is always working to make them better. They give them out for free with the hopes of making money installing them and providing guidance on how to use them, but someone starts Company Bar and installs them for cheaper and starts taking on installation jobs."
Is this wrong? Isn't this just the definition of an open market? Please let me know if I'm missing some kind of context. I hope that we can continue to discuss this respectfully.
I should say that I want any open source project with the motivation to write good software to have all of the funding they need to make that happen. I just don't see how it can be justified in this instance when compared to any other market.

I've never heard of these before. I'll have to check them out. Thanks for the suggestion.

When hosting on my own machine, should I use a virtual machine or not?
I feel like putting it in a VM is probably overkill. I just have everything running in Docker containers and it's pretty good like that.

Are there any gotchyas to running a Lemmy Instance?
These things hurt me while setting up my Lemmy instance on my Raspberry Pi 4 via Docker.

Is anyone defending the Rebuilders?
What's the harm in doing a rebuild? Serious question. I simply don't understand where the harm comes from. I would appreciate any insight. Thanks.

I've already stopped using RIF, ever since the blackout. I'm no longer going to visit Reddit daily as I did before. Lemmy is awesome.

Trolling people sounds interesting. Is there any way to have them auto-navigate to a rickroll upon connecting?

I open sourced my school notes
Reply in thread
Yeah, looking at these notes, they don't appear particularly useful for my purposes either. It's a challenge to find good, ready-to-use material. Thanks for sharing them, though.

I feel like a good name around me would be "FreePublicWifi". Can you get in trouble for naming it something like "[city name]WifiNetwork"?

[SOLVED] Why is my Lemmy instance not finding other instances' communities?
I was having issues searching as well until I added a network to the docker-compose and then adding it to my lemmy image.
networks:
lemmybridge:
services:
lemmy:
networks:
- lemmybridge

I open sourced my school notes
If I wanted to use these notes as direct source material for an open source quiz project, would that be okay? I've been looking for good, free, open source notes, Q&As, and diagrams but it's not easy.

I bet it's compatible and they don't get punished for lying. All they have to say is "Oh, it looks like it IS compatible after all."

Anyone have suggestions for a good Rust template engine?
I've been using tide-jsx, but I'm also using tide (not actix). Everything renders to a String, so it would technically be compatible with any web framework.
I would love to see what other people suggest for Actix since I wanted to use that instead of Tide, but I also didn't know where to find a crate like tide-jsx. https://crates.io/crates/tide-jsx

Looking for 64-bit RPi4 Server OS Distro suggestions
I've only ever used Ubuntu 64-bit on my RaspberryPis without much issue, but honestly, all I ever use them for is hosting docker containers for systems that generally work out-of-the-box. I don't have them clustered in any way (yet). I'm not doing anything fancy (yet).
If you or anyone else has a suggestion for an OS that is super slim and runs Docker, I'd love to hear about it. I don't need the desktop environment whatsoever.
