I remember seeing Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter and the first avengers on the same week and much preferring the first one

Does that really scale though? The load on a server is not dependent on the number of users, but on the number of communities from other server that the sum of user is subscribing to.

Which means if you have a server for 100 users, you still need to pay for the 1000s giant communities that those users are subscribing to, as they are being copied over in your server.

So if you have a few mega server like Lemmy.world, they each pay say 10000£ in hosting a month (number taken out of my hat), which is fine because they have as many users that can contribute to it financially ( via donations, ads etc.). But small servers won’t be able to support that load and will ultimately close.

That sounds like a design flaw if you ask me but i did not see anyone mentioning it so maybe i’m misunderstanding.

I got a 403 the first time I visited it, then when I went to the source, and back to the image it works. I suspect they have a cookie or something to detect that you’re a valid user.

Because this is a different domain the cookie would not come with the image request.

Just a wild guess

Actually I found a way to make it work, bit hacky, but you can add #.jpg at the end of your URL. For example, here is your osaka picture as an image post pointing directly to twitter

https://lemmy.world/post/341872

I’ve used

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Foojf9RaEAA1GM-?format=png&name=small#.jpg

As the URL to force image detection

(if you’re not a dev, I assume this is your face right now, sorry about this:

I’m not a lemmy dev, I just took a look at their repository

I believe it’s the regex that detects if something is an image

A reddit image URL is :

https://i.redd.it/2obhjz2wb37b1.jpg
or
https://preview.redd.it/7s1p7mal707b1.jpg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=f741210c6c54fed7c3ed06aaabdb1f0a49fd46cb

in both cases it has “.jpg” (with the dot) in it so it passes the regex. It does not need to finish with it.

Whereas the image your provided does not have that in it.

You can instead download the image and post it like this, or similarly take a screenshot.

I believe that sort of website does this on purpose to make sure they don’t waste server resources on other website that do not drive any ad revenue to them.

I planned on exporting a web version as well and I was testing there first hence the issue.

How would this allow any website to impersonate you though? The login is made via a jwt which would not be accessible if you go in another website. If I login on mysuperlemmyclient.com and then visit maliciouswebsite.com, how can maliciouswebsite access the jwt that is stored likely in a cookie of mysuperlemmyclient.com?

/remind me 1 year

More seriously though, only time will tell

I’ll go against all the comment here and say yes. It looks like apple is delivering a fantastic piece of hardware, and some basic solid features software wise. But the price point also means the user base will be more likely to buy expensive applications, compared to say the Quest. Some predictions

• Next iPhone will come with dual camera that allow to take 3D scenery, that can only fully be appreciated in the headset.
• The developer ecosystem will be super active. We know that’s going to be a line of product for at least 10 years, and being the first on the market in your segment can be critical.
• The price point is of course really high, but a year or so after they’ll announce the Apple Vision (not pro). This will remove some of the decorative feature, such as the outward facing screen that shows your eyes etc. and reduce the price point to maybe 2K. Again, possibly more expensive that people would be ready to pay, but don’t under estimate monthly payment plan elongated over 3 years. In between FOMO, social proof and the actual usefulness it will find its user base.

And at some point, Samsung, Google, and possibly maybe chinese constructers etc. will come up with their android based alternative. Starting as cheaper / not as good, and slowly catching up and building new features. “Samsung vision, gaming oriented with tracked controllers included”, “Pixel Vision, that integrates with your full suit of google products and give you great quality for less price” etc.

Wrong community, there is nothing mild about this

It’s not a weekday lunch for sure, but thinking a bit ahead of time it’s not too bad. Also it helps to limit yourself to one type of sushi / fish. I used to do makis + nigiris + tamagoyaki or something and that’s always a pain and a half

the way I did it 6pm - wash the rice and let it soak for at least half an hour. I use to think that was unnecessary but in reality the end result for the rice is massively different 6:30pm - put the rice to cook in the rice cooker, take the fish out of the fridge and out of its package to let it breathe.

when the rice is cooked (~7pm), take it out and spread it as thin as possible on a big platter. The finner it is, the faster it will cool down. Then add the seasoning (4 big spoons of vinegar, 1 spoon of sugar, half a spoon of salt, mixed up in a heated pot) and spread it evenly over the rice. Leave the rice next to an open window or next to a fan depending on the weather.

whilst the rice cools down, you can start preparing the fish. I’ve got to say having a proper sashimi knife I bought in Japan (despite my wife “you don’t need any more knives”) made it much easier. Also, buying a half back of salmon (like the one on the picture) yields much better salmon than smaller packs in the super market.

Anyway, start by removing the skin, that’s like a minute of work, and then cut up slices after slices, perpendicular to the “grain” of the fish (I don’t know the terminology, sorry). I takes maybe 20 minutes, and by the time you’re done, the rice should be at room temperature.

It’s now 7:30pm and you can start assembling your nigiris, doing only a few at a time helping with people appreciating them and not being overwhelmed with the preparation. (I added some proper wasabi in there as well). Having a bowl of water available to make your hands wet really helps.

So to answer the question, that’s an hour passive (soaking + rice cooking + fish breathing time), and then maybe 40 minutes of active time (slicing the fish, then assembling it).

For me, who enjoys the process, that’s fairly manageable. You can add some frozen gyozas and instant miso soup as well for some variety, and use some of the fish as sashimi as well.

Thanks, I’ll have a look over all that over the weekend.

Oh nice, I had a seedbox some years ago but at the time it was fairly manual still. Stopped it the day I accidentally run a rm -rf / instead of rm -rf ./ (yeah that happens in real life!). I’ll have a look to see if I can find a hand free option or at the very least add the combination of Sonarr and nzb360 myself, thanks
