I really don’t know enough to say one way or the other, but the fact that this is an established Microsoft practice swayed me. I can actually believe google didn’t intend to do what it did to xmpp as a log of google employees from the 2000’s speak highly of the company, but these executives are traded like nfl players, and i know enough about meta’s history to believe they may do this. Besides I’m still new to development, but i don’t see many other reasons why it would take meta nearly a year to fully launch federation.

Actually this just occurred to me, but isn’t it interesting which accounts were linked first?

This is an excellent point. Thanks!

in that case considering meta is saying that it would take nearly a year to federate the platform we probably should defederate them.

Okay. I’ve seen stuff like this on both mastodon, and here, but i haven’t heard about them doing anything that would actually harm the fediverse. I guess i don’t know what the problem is. I know they’ve got a negative reputation, and for good reason, but isn’t that the awesome part of threads being federated? We can follow and connect to people there without being part of their system, and therefor not susceptible to their bs? If I’m missing something please fill me in.

I’ve been trying to install PostgreSQL for a week. Can’t get the repositories to work correctly≥ in c/webdev@programming.dev

Not trolling. I used the repo link on the site that it gave for apt distros. Got a terminal error. That’s what i was told when i looked up the terminal error. I have absolutely no experience with docker, so i haven’t tried it.

UPDATE just saw the terminal code you shared. I’ll try that. The command i found to start the service was slightly different. Really appreciate your response.

PostgreSQL says it’s included in Ubuntu related operating systems, but I’m not sure. I’m unable to start the service, or set up new servers in PgAdmin. I’ve tried to install the repositories but I’m either getting “1831” architecture errors, or no release file errors. I’ve tried fixing the list file, but it doesn’t seem to help. If anyone can help i would really appreciate it

The course I’m taking provides download links for an installer for windows, and Mac. After this and another problem I’ve had on Mac back in the day I’m thinking of switching to windows. Maybe the development software works better there.

Magic Keyboard vs Smart Keyboard Folio for iPad Pro in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

[-] Creatortray@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

If apple remade the keyboard folio i would recommend that, but it’s far too breakable, and it doesn’t protect the iPad very well. You may want to try the Logitech combo touch since it hav much the same layout, and protects the iPad better. You loose the extra usb c port though appposed to the Magic Keyboard, but you’re paying over 100 less. Apple really needs to change the material they make their keyboard cases from in my opinion

Just install EndeavorOS lol in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I’m learning web development. I’m on databases at the moment, postgresql in particular. I thought it might be fun to try to help with a fediverse project or two, but I’m only knowledgeable about node.js, and npm, do any fediverse projects use that? I also may be diving too deep too early with this. Appreciate any feedback you guys have!

Linux mint.

I think Arch. Linux would make sense more as one of those fancy setups you’re always seeing on YouTube. The ones with the awesome ports, and the calming effect. I just started using zorin, and it’s more like one of those top of the line machines that can start the coffee automatically in the morning lol.

I’m really enjoying zorin right now.
