Questions related to blocking users and domains. (kbin.social)

I've noticed a few things when blocking users.

If i block user A, then any post/thread by that user A is not shown. So lets say a thread has posts by user A and other people respond to him, all the replies to user A are hidden and only other peoples replies in the thread is visible.
If user A made link posts, they are all hidden including every reply to his thread.

When blocking a domain, i see that communities from that domain still show up in all. I'm confused how to block all communities from a particular domain.

Instead of completely hiding the threads, links and replies to banned users, can the blocked user's post/replies/threads be replaced with a spoiler that the user is blocked in preferences?

Is there any media cataloging software in linux that automatically shows which files don't have 2 or more copies? (kbin.social)

I lost 2-3 hdd's due to old age and lost all data on them. Some other 2-3 hdd's make a lot of noise while in operation and probably failing. I use VVV to catalog the stuff and to see which files have 2-3 copies, i need to manually search each file name. It's really tedious. I was wondering if there is another program that does this automatically. I let it scan the hdd's and it makes catalogs of each hdd and tells me which files don't have duplicates when i press a button. I have like 18 hdds ranging from 500GB to 4TB full of data so manually searching is too much work now.

Apologies don't help much. The two women should ask for full refund of money spent plus additional $10k each for forced cleaning. Fuck the pilot and the supervisor.

After a supervisor reiterated that they would have to sit in the soiled seats, the two women were “reluctantly” provided blankets, wipes and vomit bags to clean the area themselves, according to Benson.

Dig a large pit 20 feet deep and fill it with fire ants. Drop these demons in that pit and live stream it till they are completely eaten by the ants.

Anyone feel typing on the keyboard is a chore compared to typing on the phone with swipe enabled? (kbin.social)

I feel swipe to type should be an option on laptops. Using keys to type is slow compared to swiping across alphabets. Remove the physical keyboard and put a 6" to 10" lcd with touch input on it.

How can i advertise and get people to subscribe to my magazine? (kbin.social)

My magazine @GooglePlayDeals has no subscribers except me. Most probably because it's new and was just created a few days back and I don't know how to advertise it on kbin. On the other site, there were subs we could link to to get subscribers.

I've seen some people who have their magazine name next to their username. How do they do that? Probably saw it on lemmy world i think.

(Audio of the) Mandatory meeting after Madison's departure from LMG. in c/linustechtips@lemmy.ml

Doesn't look professional. Looks like a family run business meeting in the kitchen of a small restaurant where they blame the staff for all the problems.

Not surprised. Toxic people have toxic followers.

What's the best petty revenge for a neighbour that constantly plays loud music but doesn't answer the door when you try asking them to turn it down? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[-] TimeMuncher2@kbin.social 75 points 1 year ago

Set up a mic and play back their own music after a delay, loud enough for them to hear. Don't open the door if they come.

After I came forward about being assaulted, Someone accused Linus of inappropriate conduct on twitter.

He came over to my corner and started BERATING HER. Calling her insane, mentally ill, an attention seeker, and just digging into this poor woman who had felt wronged by him.

o.0 what a hell hole. company is run by woman haters. zero respect for women.

Intel 'Downfall': Severe flaw in billions of CPUs leaks passwords and much more in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] TimeMuncher2@kbin.social 99 points 1 year ago

According to him, billions of Intel processors are affected, which are used in private user computers as well as in cloud servers.
Update: Intel’s Downfall was closely followed by AMD’s Inception, a newfound security hole affecting all Ryzen and Epyc processors.

so both desktop and server chips are affected on both cpu manufacturers products. can't take any measures if your password is online on some server.

As an Indian, this article would have fit nottheonion. The guy speculating this must be high on something really strong enough to make an elephant sleep soundly for a few days, to put it mildly.
