It’s a by-election, i.e. voting in their replacement. The next election they’d have to fight for their seat as usual.

As soon as I saw the logo the theme song played in my head.

Wow, the quality of those “drawings” is amazing. I’m guessing these don’t get published five times a week.

I’m glad they asked, because now the answer is here for all of us without each having to research the answer.

What a cute little Firefox

I was on a site that did that and was confused why my text search wasn’t finding much. Thanks devs for breaking basic browser features.

This is great composition, and a cool photo

Or (B)ritain? Once I even found (T)he UK, which I only discovered by searching the page source.

Ok, so Lemmy doesn’t cause the same amount of duplication, but I’d still argue that dedupe is valuable: it saves on hosting costs (your costs, in this case) and users will get a small advantage in having slightly higher cache hits.

Yes, for example go to https://infosec.exchange/explore

I see the top post as https://infosec.exchange/@nocontexttrek@mastodon.social/113433063621462027 and the image is https://media.infosec.exchange/infosec.exchange/cache/media_attachments/files/113/433/063/582/671/258/original/71da3801e4e4f08c.png

The link is to the original on https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/433/062/676/773/993/original/f828afef5cc7ed1c.png but when you click image the javascript loads a modal with the local cached version (same image as the thumbnail that infosec.exchange loads.

There’s lots of different codebases across the fediverse so perhaps some hotlink, but local copies is the default.

I think the major advantage is the deduplication - when an image goes viral across Mastodon (or Lemmy) it’s currently stored hundreds or thousands of times, each with its own cost. Do you dedupe (for either your customers’ benefit or your own)?

The botsin.space Mastodon server shutting down is sad news, it’s a pretty important server and if you didn’t like bots it was handy that you could just block one server and block loads of them at once.

leaving Mastodon out to try

While it’s clear what’s meant from the context, I’ve never heard this idiom. Do you mean “hanging Mastodon out to dry”?

Drop in the bucket sounds weird to me too, but a quick check shows that it’s the US version of drop in the ocean.

Where exactly did Hashem define the boundaries, and are we obligated to conquer those areas?

Yikes.

*its

I can see it from the three medium/small instances I just tried.

Also, is typigraphy a typo (typi?) or its own thing?

Hang on, if you’re using CrowdStrike but not getting the updates, then why are you using it at all?

And a way to contact drivers if you’d just something in the car, and a system to notify others of your route and progress.

I had to check, but the real thing is the Dairy Council and this is a parody account. Obviously it’s way more interesting than the real @dairyuk account.

It only looked ok in the textarea you wrote it in, but the format was wrong.

You have a few options:

* lists
* with a * or -

It looked like you were trying to use code formatting which is three backticks, but you used single quotes. This is a backtick: `
