@Evil_Shrubbery Haven’t gotten the update yet, but based on the release notes it appears 3.7 introduces an emoji search box, which was much-needed! Really happy to see that.

@OwOarchist @Rhoeri Unlike AI crawlers, search engines generally respect robots.txt and noindex tags, which will tell them not to index or surface those pages in search results. This is how fediverse profiles which have chosen to opt out of internet search indexes do so.
You should still assume things you post in public with no auth required are public of course.

Linux@lemmy.ml•GNOME & Firefox Consider Disabling Middle Click Paste By Default: "An X11'ism...Dumpster Fire"
4·4 months ago@Reisen Among other things, it’s useful in terminals where the standard ctrl-c/ctrl-v send a control signal rather than copy/paste. Most terminals nowadays have some other copy/paste shortcut so it’s less important now, but a lot of us still find it convenient.

World News@beehaw.org•Danish postal service to stop delivering letters after 400 years
1·4 months ago@HubertManne I suspect that dropping the letters at a doorstep isn’t the hard part. Letters require their own sorting infrastructure which can actually be quite complex, so doing this probably lets them streamline behind the scenes.

(I’m guessing you deliberately avoided it since the person you’re responding to would also refuse to click that but I think it’s an interesting read for anyone who hasn’t seen it)

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Strawberry Music Player fork from Codeberg have been taken down
9·8 months ago@brickfrog @far_university1990 The dev saying it’s about “information on how to fund the project” is being… misleading. Windows binaries from the project are paywalled, so alternate builds being distributed via Winget presents a pretty clear threat to that funding by being free and more convenient.* They’re well within their right to not distribute their own builds for free, but the misleading way it’s framed here is not endearing… especially given this is a fork of another piece of FOSS software that will happily provide you Windows builds.
* As an aside, it really is so much better to have stuff distributed by a package manager. Who the hell wants to download an installer from Patreon for every new release, honestly. Some devs drive me crazy with their insistence on asinine distribution channels.

Technology@beehaw.org•Our basic assumptions about photos capturing reality are about to go up in smoke.
9·2 years ago@Gaywallet I have a couple thoughts on this:
-
This seems like a way that device attestation could worm its way further into our devices. Right now Google is trying to watermark AI-generated photos as AI, but you could easily go the other way - if a photo hasn’t been manipulated, it’s signed with a key that is locked down to device attestation. What, your phone is rooted? That’s kinda suspicious - how am I supposed to know your photos are real?
-
Short of that, though, I suspect that the most likely consequence of this is the videos will start being increasingly seen as necessary for true proof, since those are harder to fake - for now, at least. And of course, there will be a lot more misinformation on the internet, especially in the short term while awareness of this catches up.

6·2 years ago“Tim Walz is a weird radical liberal,” the MAGA War Room account posted on X, formerly Twitter. “What could be weirder than signing a bill requiring schools to stock tampons in boys’ bathrooms?”
It’s so funny watching conservatives attempt to turn the"weird" thing around.

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Ladybird web browser now funded by GitHub co-founder, promises ‘no code’ from rivals
13·2 years ago@AVincentInSpace @remington The Lemmy devs are infamously difficult to work with. They’ve repeatedly shown an unwillingness to even acknowledge the existence of the many problems that instance admins face. That has been a big driver in Beehaw’s decision to move platforms, not just because of a difference in political views, and they’ve been pretty open about discussing it. You’re way off-base.
@remington There are few creators whose videos I will jump to view the instant they drop, and Lemmino is one of them. This is a pretty interesting subject that I haven’t heard of, despite it apparently being quite well-known.
Tbh, Sanborn not being confident/experienced with math and cryptography kinda tracks with his apparent surprise that expert cryptographers cracked a Vigenere cipher in a couple days rather than follow an obscure breadcrumb trail that’s still unclear, even after knowing the key. For me, K4’s enduring mystery prompts comparison to the Zodiac killer ciphers, which ended up being so difficult to unwind not because they were brilliant ciphers devised by a mastermind, but because the author made a bunch of mistakes. Still, at this point it seems likely that Sanborn has checked his work over multiple times, so maybe there really is just some trick that no one has thought of. He’s clearly eager for it to be solved, so we may know in the coming decades!

Some newer laptops use MIPI cameras which aren’t as consistently supported on Linux yet. The situation has improved a lot in the last couple years, but if you can, check compatibility for the specific laptop and distribution/kernel version you plan to use.
