After 2months, this still continues to happen and is getting more and more frustrating.

Is this being worked on at all?

I currently have 110 unique user+password combos. I wouldn’t want to change all those even once, if I were breached and had used similar credentials everywhere.

Bitwarden keeps them well managed, synced between devices, and allows me to check the whole database for matches/breaches via haveibeenpwned integration. Plus because I prefer to keep things in-house as much as possible, I even self-host the server with vaultwarden walled off behind my own vpn, instead of using the public servers. (this also means it’s free, instead of a paid service)

Noticed it on 83 I think, but I actually haven’t seen it with 84 afaik. I didn’t pay much attention to version numbers as I hadn’t planned on reporting it.

I’ll reply to this again if I notice it again and be sure to include more useful info.

Hmm, I thought it may be something to do with that.

I had also noticed images being rendered in the wrong size lately. They’ll look normal at first, but if you scroll past them, then scroll back up; some images are ~150% size and falling off the edge of screen.

At least it’s known and being addressed.

And now suddenly it’s happening while browsing my own profile/comment history…

Major version changes for any software from the OS right down to a simple notepad app should update as sequentially as possible (11>12>13>etc). Skipping over versions is just asking for trouble, as it’s rarely tested throughly.

It might work, but why risk it.

An example: if 12 makes a big database change but you skip over that version, 13 may not recognize the databases left by 11 because 12 had the code to recognize and reformat the old database while that code was seen as unnecessary and removed from 13.

Stuff like this is also why you can’t always revert to an older version while keeping the data/databases from the newer software.

You probably should, but that doesn’t mean you do. It’s not like anyone makes you take a quiz to go wander around outside.

Plenty of people get themselves into trouble all the time exploring places/things they know nothing about.

Imagine being out exploring new islands, not realizing its low tide. You setup camp for the night on an island that’s relatively flat and close to current sea-level. Then while you’re sleeping the tide comes in and washes your whole camp out to sea…

Cue dumbasses tossing their iphones in the toaster oven in 3… 2…

She’s your mom, not mine; IDGAF.

Just tried: the ‘report an issue’/‘suggest an edit’ button doesn’t appear when The Gulf of Mexico is selected.

It does for other locations, but not for the Gulf.

No, you can sort/filter within a community, but not within a whole instance.

You’d have to visit the instance directly and filter by local.(from the web page, or signed in as an account from that instance if you’re using an app)

TikTok’s fate in the U.S. now lies in the hands of President-elect Donald Trump, who originally favored a TikTok ban during his first administration

…

Trump began to speak more favorably of TikTok after he met in February with billionaire Republican megadonor Jeff Yass. Yass is a major ByteDance investor who also owns a stake in the owner of Truth Social, Trump’s social media platform.

Stop the ban or we’ll burn your own platform to the ground.

Holy shit; planned to spend 10 days, stuck there for almost a year… (if they finally manage this schedule)

The article writer’s didn’t even read the paper they are reporting…

This is power-over-skin. Ie: power transmitted from one device to another via human skin. It’s not harvesting or generating energy from the human body.

The research paper, published by Andy Kong, Daehwa Kim, and Chris Harrison from Carnegie Mellon University, notes that the human body is particularly efficient at generating 40 MHz RF energy.

No. It doesn’t. At all…

Page 1 of the research paper PDF:

We call our technique Power-over-Skin Prior work has found that the human body is particularly efficient at conducting 40 MHz RF, while largely confining transmitted power to the body

So the .su domain was handed to Russia to operate alongside its own (.ru). The Russian government agreed that it would eventually be shut down, but no clear rules around its governance or when that should happen were defined.

But ambiguity is the worst thing for a top-level domain. Unknowingly, this decision created an environment in which .su became a digital wild west. Today, it is a barely policed top-level domain, a plausibly deniable home for Russian dark ops and a place where supremacist content and cyber-crime have found cover.

I seems IANA would like to not repeat past mistakes.
