  • I know mint is often said to be the friendly new distro.
    I’ve heard good things about Bazzite. Like really good things.

    I’m currently running Endeavour OS. As soon as I get a chance, I’m planning on checking out Bazzite.

    If you are going in fresh, I think Bazzite is something to try for a week or so.


  • NVidia got there early with their CUDA API.
    That’s been around for decade(s), which enabled all sorts of crazy GPU usages beyond just graphics.
    Due to that, NVidia held the datacenter/professional scene exclusively for a long time.
    As a result, their professional cards and related drivers have been industry standard.
    I have no doubt that AMD is better, but so much (non-mainstream) software is built against NVidia drivers, CUDA etc., that will be slow to change until the cost of implementing similar for AMD outweighs “just sticking with NVidia”.

    The classic “Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM”





  • So strip out the typescript.
    Or compile it, and use the result. Typescript doesn’t minify, so worst case is you have some odd looking code. But it will be functionally the same.
    If you are really lazy, feed it into chatgpt and ask it to remove the typescript.

    That is the Web UI frontend. It’s designed to run in the browser.
    That is the literal reference implementation. That is what the Lemmy Devs coded as the web fronted to work with the Lemmy backend, as deployed on all (maybe, most) Lemmy instances.
    It’s not any 3rd party reimplementation. It’s not example code.
    It is the 1st party, guaranteed to be correct, Lemmy markdown processor.
    You won’t find a better reference.








  • A page could load thousands of images and thousands of tiny CSS files.
    None of that is JS, all of that is loads of extra requests.

    Never mind WASM. It’s a portable compiled binary that runs on the browser. Code that in c#, rust, python, whatever.
    So no, JS is not the only way to poorly implement API requests.

    Besides, http/2 has connection reuse. If the IP and the TLS cert authority is the same, additional API/file etc requests will happen over the established TLS connection, reducing the overhead of establishing a secure connection.

    Your dislike is of badly made websites and the prevalence of the browser being a common execution framework, and is wrongly directed at JS.




  • Locking a thread that gets heated and goes wildly off topic is normal moderating actions.
    It stops any kind of inflow of rule breaking, it stops all arguments, and it gives mods time to sort out what’s happened.
    If an new/inexperienced mod encounters something they don’t know how to handle, locking is the safest bet. It keeps the content, prevents escalation.

    The behaviour afterwards is what defines if the mods support bigotry or not.

    Ideally the mods wade through the bullshit, delete the bigotry comments and ban the bigots with the reason of “being a bigot”. Then release a post saying that bigotry is not tolerated, and make any changes to rules that are appropriate. Consulting the community where appropriate, and being as transparent as possible.
    All of this takes time. Locking a post is the first stage.

    By creating a second thread with more similar content, the OP is subverting moderators trying to moderate.
    There is already a thread that got out of hand, which mods are struggling to deal with.
    By creating ANOTHER thread, it doubles the mods workload. The expected mod action would be to lock it instantly with a comment stating they are tidying up an existing post, clarifying rules, and will contact OP when they can safely repost. Next best thing is to just delete it.

    The correct response from OP would be to ask for a public comment why the original thread was locked.
    This would prompt a moderator comment - hopefully - that they are dealing with it, and will give a timeline of expected deadlines.

    It’s not the mods that are bigots, it’s that Reddit is a cesspool. And fun communities can easily be overwhelmed if targeted.
    If the mods hadn’t encountered this behaviour before, then they have to figure out - amongst themselves and with the community - how to proceed.

    I wasn’t there, I can’t be arsed reading Reddit bullshit. From the context you’ve given, I’ve come to the above conclusion.
