I used to be on kbin as e0qdk@kbin.social before it broke down.
I don’t know what anyone else intends to do, but if I can fix the issues I’m currently looking at – and no one else has stepped up in the interim – I’ll at least take a look at the 1.0 stuff. (I use mlmym and would like it to keep working…)
the thumbnails now are even more clearly 4-pixel potatoes
pictrs’s thumbnail parameter uses dumb raw pixel sampling – which leaves something to be desired… It has other sampling options implemented (with resize, according to the docs), but they don’t seem to accessible on my instance. You can remove thumbnail=96 if you want to get the image without that thumbnail sampling, at least.
make everything zoom 150%
I do this with my browser’s UI (ctrl-plus keyboard shortcut in FF-based browsers works for me).
e.g. right side bar
[...document.querySelectorAll(".side")].forEach(sidebar => sidebar.remove())
You could also just adblock the element with class side.
someone forks and maintains it.
MrKaplan already forked it and is keeping it on life support for lemmy.world. I’ve been trying to make enough sense of it to fix several issues that have been bugging me for a while, and will contribute my fixes there if I can figure them out.
I’ve only got a few hours each weekend where I have good concentration + enough free time to work on it, and don’t know the relevant languages (Go, Rust, TypeScript), so my progress is pretty slow… but I’m still poking at it.
Voting
You could support this by making vote buttons submit a form if JS isn’t enabled. (That’s what mlmym does.)
Can’t manually switch between dark and light mode
Hmm… There are some pretty nifty things you can do with a hidden checkbox, label, and some clever CSS (e.g. html:has(#element:checked) + CSS variables – though FYI :has is baseline 2023.)
Making it persistent would require some more effort – e.g. form + cookies + server side style sheet selection, most likely. mlmym lets users change their theme w/o JS by submiting a form on the setting page. I’d have to think a bit if there’s a good way to make it persistent across multiple requests for logged out users with a CDN caching things in between though…
only automatically based on browser settings
Doesn’t actually work for me in a FF138-based browser w/ JS blocked via NoScript – I always get light mode despite having a dark mode preference set. (Where do you have your prefers-color-scheme media query?)
Also, FYI I had to manually override font restriction – otherwise all your buttons end up as tofu characters. (I think NoScript is being kind of unreasonably strict there by blocking first party fonts.) That’s a papercut kind of issue, but figured I’d point it out in case it might save you some debugging time if you get confused NoScript users in the future.
You can just use the rendered fat as a cooking fat for anything that pairs with the spices you infused it with.
Fried rice might be nice!
I picked an RNG name since my old common username (from reddit, etc) was not available when I started on kbin.social (RIP) and I couldn’t think of anything else I wanted to be called. I deliberately kept it short though. Not sure what to make of other RNG names – esp. long unintelligible ones – but I’ve seen at least one account that I think is legit which has a long, bizarre RNG-looking username and a non-English display name, so 🤷️
Yup, I totally ate the onion on this one. Wait, what do you mean it’s not satire!? :p
Hmm. That doesn’t really mesh with my understand of how certain prolific posters post (e.g. via automation), but digging into it a bit more, I do see the proxy link via Lemmy-UI even on the poster’s instance, so there’s something besides just mlmym involved here – whether that really is inappropriate copy-pasting or a lemmy bug or what, I don’t know yet.
Regardless, the fact that the image doesn’t load in the post at all for those links seems like an mlmym bug that should be addressed; it’s loadable via Lemmy-UI.
I’ve set up a new GitHub account for association with my lemmy account and will create issues on your repo in a little while.
Edit – Issue links for future reference:
Thanks. I’m still learning both Go and the codebases involved. I’m pretty limited on free time where I’ve got both large enough blocks of time and energy to concentrate effectively on this. I’m also not very enthusiastic about taking on the administrative aspects of running an open source project – I’m only really interested in keeping a JS-free version of Lemmy usable – so contributing changes to a common community fork you’ve already got up and running sounds good to me!
I do have some specific issues in mind that I’d like to implement fixes for once I’m up to speed. In particular:
I may take on some other issues after that, but those three are what I want to fix most right now.
Sichuan pepper provides a numbing effect. It’s usually combined with spicy chili to make the Chinese “mala” taste.
The numbing effect was the most memorable part of my experience of trying tantanmen when I was in Japan a long time ago; I hadn’t encountered Sichuan pepper before that, so it was quite surprising!
If you’re getting the numbing effect then there’s some mixed into one of the ingredients you used. If not, you’re missing out on an interesting ingredient that you can use in the dish.
Did you use Sichuan pepper?
I have some interest in trying to take that on if it’s really unmaintained now. I use mlmym and want to make sure we continue to have an interface that works w/o JS. I have relevant web programming experience, but not with Go specifically.
@nnrx@lemmy.world FYI, if you’re still here.
Seems to be working fine for me.
There’s a lot of overlap, but the other is a bit more general purpose (not just new communities). I joined both to help with community discovery.
There’s more-or-less already an active community for that: !communitypromo@lemmy.ca
From their description:
Promote your favourite communities here, or ask about a community you are looking for
A post titled like “Is there a community for TOPIC?” with text in the body indicating you’re interested in making one if not would likely do well there.
What was the most ridiculous or funny boundary push you saw?
Trolling someone by attaching a camera to the ceiling right above their keyboard. I’ve been paranoid since I saw that stunt pulled… They got their point across about physical security though.
I’ve worked for a university before and it was very common for staff to remote into their systems from home – usually with SSH for CS types or Remote Desktop/Team Viewer/etc. for less computer-focused folks. (The former usually didn’t have much issue – the folks using the latter mechanisms got compromised a number of times… -.-) There was also a campus provided VPN that was required to access certain systems with instructions to students and staff on how to use it, but other systems just got public IP addresses.
If what you’re doing is related to your work and campus IT doesn’t object, you’re probably fine to do it. I’ve run various kinds of websites and web apps for colleagues to collaborate on research projects. Being able to do things like that is kind of the point of the internet.
Having seen a number of students, uh, push the limits and find the boundaries of acceptability the hard way though… I’d strongly advise you not to install cryptominers, run TOR exit nodes, or torrent TV shows/movies/etc. That kind of thing tends to get your systems in hot water with IT or other parts of the bureaucracy…
In principle, sure. I’m not aware of an existing out-of-the-box solution that’d do what you want, but it also wouldn’t surprise me terribly if someone’s cobbled something together to do this before.
If I wanted to make something like this personally (and couldn’t find an existing solution), I’d start by doing some research into PBX software like Asterisk, what derivatives and extensions people have made for that, etc. – being mindful that I’d likely be digging into a deep rabbit hole…
You can run docker containers with multiple volumes. e.g. pass something like -v src1:dst1 -v src2:dst2 as arguments to docker run.
So – if I understood your question correctly – yes, you can do that.
