This is the most stupidest idea (yes, double superlative, that's how bad it is) I've heard posted on the Fediverse since... well, the last time I heard the most stupidest idea, and that was also here on the Fediverse. So, congratulations on that front.

There's like 123456 bad things with this idea, starting with the obvious of blockchain and cryptocurrency, and continuing with the fact that "quality of instances" is equated to "consumption of content". Popularity and connectivity are not indicators of quality.

At least it's not like Russia, where it's “plz don’t fall to your death, if you do it’s our fault”...

Some of the best stuff in the world looks like it's 20 years past a prime that isn't, because they're truly good eternal.

This definitively was not in my 2024 Bingo card:

IDK how easy it still is these days.

Hell, trolls could go around and recreate accounts on the top 100 instances with the same username users have on other instances to prevent them from reusing the same username elsewhere, just that is a weird concept to explain

Yes but that doesn't mean you should get automatic dibs on a name everywhere. It's just a name. If you are Joe Bill at lemm.ee, that does not give you any rights over the name Joe Bill all across the world. Statistically speaking, there's at least 18 thousand other Joe Bills around at this very moment.

Like, this is something that is already solved by the instance's moderators.

Well, what’s stopping someone else from adopting TomHanks@Lemm.ee?

There's over 1400 people solely in the US named Tom Hanks. Tom Hanks The Celebrity does not get patent rights or trademarks or copyrights on the name.

Wanna know which is the Tom Hanks The Celebrity? Check if their profile is authenticated against their personal website, à-la-Mastodon.

Considering the executors of the estate were not doing it, I'd say someone has to do it.

A toot is literally the sound of a birb. It's got more comfy than "tweet" does.

Yeah definitively sounds like even more support for Rust and/or Python in this sense.

True, but mindful: one data (well, one datum, to compare with one anecdote) does not statistics make.

 

RFC 3339, the "alternative" to ISO 8061, was extended to RFC 9957, which also allows adding interpretative tags.

Sounds like unnecessary complexification to me. What is wrong if anything with "2024-04-26"?

 

Today in our newest take on "older technology is better": why NAT rules!

 

Hey everyone I was wondering how do you spice up your cursors, icons, themes, etc., In particular for desktop environments such as XFCE, Mate. Are there any good repositories to use?

I've taken a look at a number of apparently cloned sites like "xfce-look.org", "kde-look.org", "gnome-look.org", but while they seem to show a wide offering of themes, it seems downloading from them is blocked via uBO since it reports a "fp2" fingerprinting script without which apparently downloads are not enabled. Are those sites trustworthy? They seem to be associated to a "OpenDesktop" initiative of which the only reputation I can find is that they were added to EasyList Privacy blocklist.

If there are other alternative hubs or repos from which to theme a distro (as agnostically as posisble) that'd be welcome info.

Cheers. Thanks. Et cetera.

  • ISO 8601 is paywalled
  • RFC allows a space instead of a T (e.g. 2020-12-09 16:09:...) which is nicer to read.
 

I've seen the Wikipedia article on year 9 doesn't mention anything of relevance happening during November. Closest thing seems to be September. Since people around have spent a few years making lots of ruckus about how the date with "9, 11" has some sort of importance as a date, I was wondering if I'm missing something here.

 

Basically title. 2019 edition of the Standard denotes the "T" prefix to time as mandatory (except in "unambiguous contexts"):

01:29:59 is now actually T01:29:59, with the former form now designated as an alternative

But date does not have a "D" prefix, not even in "ambiguous contexts".

1973-09-11 never needs to be something like eg.: D1973-09-11

Anyone know the reasoning behind this change and what is the intended use? The only time-only format with separators that I can think would be undecidable in ambiguous contexts would be hh:mm which I guess could be mistaken for bible verses?

 

I mean, it's the obvious choice. So why not? Maybe we can do with the zoom on the cat if there is a better version.
