It depends on the version of Lemmy that your instance is running. My account is on sh.itjust.works which upgraded Lemmy versions a few months ago. Apparently it changed a parameter name that keeps track if a post has been read or not.

So on Sync, you can click on posts, but they never show as read. It’s super annoying, so I went back to Voyager.

I used to use RiF and loved Sync for Lemmy too. I just wish the developer would fix the bug for posts showing unread! It’s completely stopped me from using the app for something like 6 months now.

There are a few minor cultural differences to be aware of. But as long as you avoid saying anything negative about Star Trek or Linux, you should be just fine.

Ugh this just reminded me that I ran into this exact issue a couple years ago. We were running jobs every hour to ingest data from an API into our data warehouse. Eventually we got reports from users about having gaps in our data. We dug into it for days trying to find a pattern, but couldn’t pinpoint anything. We were just missing random pieces of data, but our jobs never reported any failures.

Eventually we were able to determine the issue. HTTP 200 with “error: true” in the response. Fml

Also how did they let that excuse get past the technical teams who should be implementing this? They added Star Link to the data center that supports the White House and then have traffic run through hard wires. This does absolutely nothing to improve spots with bad WiFi.

How many story points is it to get to 2nd base?

“LONG LIVE THE REAL KING," said the video showing an AI-generated Musk getting his feet sucked by Trump

What reckless journalism. It would be much more accurate to say “an allegedly AI-generated Musk getting his feet sucked by Trump”.

I’ve seen no concrete proof that the video is not authentic. It’s with in the realm of possibility that Elon has two left feet.

The whole thing was pretty damn good all the way through. The only thing that had me wondering was

Tea

Until it got to

SpillTea

Well played.

Oddly enough, on my first development project I was paired with a “senior dev” who turned out just to be a guy in his 60s who had never actually coded before, so… just a senior.

I ended up doing 100% of the coding, but the guy managed to keep his job for a few months.

Isn’t it crazy that basically every election at this point is basically like:

• Option 1) We keep the status quo, nothing really changes.
• Option 2) We burn it all down to the ground. Not to rebuild something better, but just for the hell of it.

JFC is their moto seriously “The people voted for major reform”? First, they barely won and are acting like there was some monumental landslide victory.

Second, none of what they’re doing is actually what they campaigned on. Trump actually tried to distance himself as much as possible from Project 2025 during the campaign.

Honestly, if my PM never pestered me about the status of my tickets, I would never close them. Some of us need the pestering!

Yeah I regularly spend hours here every day with no lack of content. For example, did you see the guy with the thermal camera a couple days ago? Facisinating.

I had a management class years ago in college where the professor made the argument that in order to be ethical, every single action a business makes must be done to increase profits for its shareholders.

Charitable donation? Only if it increases public perception in a way to be justified by the cost.

Pay your employees well? Only if paying them less would cause you to lose them to your competitors.

The list goes on. It’s a very depressing way to look at the world. But as time goes by, I’ve realized just how accurate that professor was. Companies don’t give a shit about you and will turn on you the second it makes their quarterly numbers look better.

Lol had never seen that before, but Jesus Christ that is a painful depiction of my life.

It’s kind of funny, but we all do this to some extent. I used to think most people on Reddit were super smart. If someone says stuff with authority, then it’s easy to believe what they’re saying and assume they know what they’re talking about.

But then every once in a while, I’d come across a topic that I know deeply about - and the comment would just be blatantly wrong, but still have tons of up votes. It really made me start second guessing all the other comments I had read and thought were smart, but it’s an easy trap to fall into.

I guess what I’m really saying, is that you all are a bunch of morons, probably.

I don’t understand why they’d make this a separate app and not a configurable setting in Messages.

Oh damn I didn’t realize he was a mod for years. I figured it was like a day or something.

Was that even a sub critical of Elon? I haven’t been on Reddit since the API migration, but I remember that sub just being a joke response to BlackPeopleTwitter, which mostly just reposted funny tweets.
