I never really got the humor there, lol, but I’m lamenting the loss of 80s TV because I had a lot of good Golden Girls posts since I’m finally watching it for the first time.

My (limited) understanding is that there’s no straightforward way to do that at least in Lemmy.

I’ve been watching The Golden Girls and would imagine saying that would immediately earn you a Sicilian vendetta.

You mean the images going down fairly regularly?

These are all 90s cartoons, so if you can find them:

• Batman: The Animated Series (the one with Mark Hamill as the Joker)
• Animaniacs
• Tiny Toon Adventures
• Chip n’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers
• Pinky and the Brain Saw you have that one already

I get that it isn’t the same but when all you have is a garbage version of a memory, I’m not sure or really matters whether the representation is the original garbage or something that makes you feel less regret over not having something better.

In my experience, the worse the photograph the better my memory of it. Probably because my mind is already used to filling in the blanks in the garbage version, so it’s constantly refreshing the memory in my mind to keep it vivid. YMMV obviously. I’m also not much of a shutterbug and prefer to commit moments to memory than try to fight with my phone to snap a photo I’ll probably never look at.

Are you able to tag the appliances after you’ve huffed all the freon out? I’ve got an old fridge in the basement I need to get rid of but can’t until I get someone out to extract the freon and put the evacuation certification tag on it.

DM me if you can help.

“How to Adult 101” and 102. I’m not qualified to teach 103+ though.

I will always use “M as in ‘Mancy’”

Ah. Okay. I use a client that handles YT embeds so that’s why then. However, when I’m on a VPN, sometimes it puts me through an endless captcha loop.

I’m assuming that’s a VPN problem? They always work fine as embeds for me.

Looks promising, thanks. Gonna download and play around with it now.

You’d think the standard PDF viewers in Linux (Okular, etc) would at least show you alt text but nope. Seems like a huge omission.

Unfortunately, that seems to only work when exporting from a LibreOffice doc. What I’m having to deal with are PDFs generated by various staff already in PDF format.

NGL, it’s kinda creepy.

Having seen you around and generally respecting your position on various things…

Please be trolling. Please be trolling. Please be trolling

Not an answer to your question, merely an amusing anecdote, but Windows used to use a green screen (different shade though) to render videos.

“The media player program didn’t render the video pixels to the screen,” … Instead, Windows would render a green screen (or a different color, depending on the version), then “render the video pixels to a graphics surface shared with the graphics card.” The final step was to “tell the graphics card that whenever it sees a green pixel about to be written to the screen, it should substitute a pixel from that shared graphics surface.”

–Windows used to secretly use green screens to render videos, which is how you could trick MS Paint into becoming a video player

I mean, replace religion with communism/anarchism/whatever stupid -ism, and that’s like half the people here.

But also, any time you see anything “blogspot [dot] com” here, it’s 99.9999% always blogspam so I just report and block.

I started keeping a spreadsheet of my blocks so I could know why I blocked someone. As of this comment, I have 1,493 accounts blocked. Round that up to 1,500, easily, to account for the blocks I made before I started tracking them.

So to answer your question, very quick.

OpenLDAP. Have been running that as the backend of several of my services since 2015.

I use it for authentication/authorization, either directly or via Authelia, as well as the backend storage for my DNS, DHCP, Kerberos, email servers, and a few internal / self-built applications. I even registered an official IANA PEN so my custom LDAP schema are properly implemented. It’s setup with a 4-way multi-master replication strategy and highly available via two load balancers in different data centers (plus one locally).

Runner up is Nginx as I’ve been running it for just as long or a bit longer, and it also underpins most of my services in some way (at least as the frontend proxy/WAF).
