Maybe we have some bias on this topic, but I had the same thought. Maven is such a well known tool in IT, that I'm surprised they just created a social network with the same name. Until they get a bit famous this won't be good for SEO.

He also seems to make a video almost every day. That really doesn't help with the quality of the video's. I doubt there is a lot of time to do additional research on the topic, so often it seems to just stick to the basic information from some kind of article and comments (and maybe a few related articles). And is often just related to the drama of the day.

Although he does sometimes have video's that do require more research, but a lot of people won't see those as they assume low quality because of many other video's.

Sometimes I do like his videos, but this one was positioned so bad. The video does go over the changes in Plasma 6.1 and they are good, but this is not a huge change that would change anybodies live.

I know he is probably inspired by channels like Linus Tech Tips, but even they don't got that far anymore. I think he probably intended this in a comedic way, as most of his audience knows that he makes his videos like this, but it really makes the videos worse.

Thanks for the update :) I was already wondering why the server was down.

Let's hope the Local Only Communities won't be abused (and only used for the intended purpose) so that we don't have to start creating accounts on multiple instances.

Ah it makes more sense that way, I didn't read the title as if they were talking about all the extensions that they found summed together. This does make it really clear that you should always check extensions when installing them, and not just install extensions with a low install base from an unknown author.

That headline is quite misleading ... the malicious extension only had a few hundred installs, not millions. They just copied an existing extension that does have 7 millions installs. They did went quite far by registering a URL. Of course it is bad that stuff like this manages to get on the store, but as long as you check what you are installing, you should be fine.

I also started using Lemmy during the Reddit fallout, and stayed for a few weeks. After that I started seeing less posts that interested me, and I took a break from Lemmy for a while. And finally returned a week ago.

Even on Reddit I see less interesting posts now. Especially the amount of discussion posts also seems to be lower there now. The official Reddit app is also a lot better for reading than for writing.

This sounds like a difficult problem if he wants to continue browsing the Reddit community for pathfinder. I have seen these kind of people on D&D subreddits too, and it also put me a bit off trying pathfinder during the OGL drama.

Maybe there are other communities outside of Reddit that are able to provide the answers to questions, but I doubt you will escape this hate on the larger TTRPG subreddits.

Although this feature sounds helpful, it really looks like they went too far with this. They should probably look for a way to sell these Copilot+ pc’s in another way if they can’t get this secure enough and probably keep it disabled for companies…

I’m surprised they didn’t make sure that the part that should help you hide sensitive information worked well before letting the first testers get their hands on the feature. All this bad news about the future doesn’t help convince people to turn it on.

There is indeed quite a shift towards just posting articles. A lot of people don’t regularly post (at least it was like that on Reddit), and for those people, the articles are great.

It is hard to keep conversations active in smaller communities. As people will quickly stop posting new chats and questions if there are no replies.

It would be nice if Jagex would confirm that it is fine to use this laucher. As far as I know we have no more information than this tweet from Mod Ash: https://x.com/kaelygon/status/1763667578315042847 Bolt does work the same as the official launcher, so it should not be a problem…

Ik had ze zelf nog niet eerder gezien. Lokaal valt er waarschijnlijk meer te behalen ja. Er zijn dan veel minder kiezers nodig en soms worden kleine partijen juist uitgelicht. En alleen al meer andacht is misschien al genoeg om de publieke opinie een beetje te beïnvloeden.

 

Bij de Europese verkiezingen aanstaande donderdag doet een Nederlandse partij mee die gesteund wordt door organisaties die zijn verbonden aan de Chinese Communistische Partij. Dat melden RTL Nieuws en Follow The Money (FTM) op basis van eigen onderzoek.

 

htmx is a very different way of developing your web application. You can define a lot of behaviour inside your HTML with the new attributed added by htmx. This allows you to build an interactive website without using any JavaScript. You do need a REST API that returns HTML though.

For more information about HTMX you can read the htmx docs.

 

The results of this year Stack Overflow survey have been published: https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/ There is a lot to go through, so if you prefer it in a video format, these kinds of videos can help and also provide some comments on the raw data that you see.

 

Ik zag dat ze bij Beehaw nu één stijl aan icoontjes aan houden. Dat ziet er erg leuk en herkenbaar uit. Natuurlijk is het ook goed dat je gewoon een community kan oprichten zonder dat je je daar super druk over hoeft te maken.

Ik vond het zelf alleen wel leuk om iets van een gezamenlijke stijl aan te houden voor de icoontjes die ik maakte, daarom koos ik voor de stijl van onze nu al meestgebruikte community !nieuws@feddit.nl. Wil je ook net zoals !nieuws en !tech@feddit.nl deze stijl aanhouden, dan kan je het SVG-bestand van de Tech community gebruiken als basis: https://gist.github.com/Fireblade75/005f4d398eb67c970bbd2e3f5d77b24f

 

Theo, a former Twitch employee, that now is one of the larger tech streamers on Twitch, made a video where he quickly goes over both react-email and Resend. Resend is a new service hat makes it easy to set up email for your website, and it is very affordable for small projects. It even comes with a free tier.

 

Met een inkoopprijs van 23 euro per megawattuur (MWh) op 1 juni leek de gascrisis voorbij, maar nu blijkt hoe grillig de gasprijzen zijn. De prijs van gas sloot gisteren op ruim 40 euro per MWh en naderde eerder op de dag zelfs even de 50 euro per MWh. Oorzaken: de stijgende vraag naar gas in China en minder aanbod uit Noorwegen.

 

De koninklijke trein gaat met pensioen. Na bijna 160 jaar zullen het koningshuis en buitenlandse staatshoofden niet meer met het rijtuig reizen. Het vervoersmiddel is aan het einde van zijn levensduur, meldt de NS. In de toekomst reist de koninklijke familie met reguliere treinen.

 

June 19th Jagex will add the Woodcutters' Grove to Fort Forinthry. With this update, they will also rebalance the woodcutting skill and even add the new Imcando Hatchet. This will make cutting logs from slow trees like magic trees a lot faster and more in line with the current state of the game.
