assuming this is on lemmy, if a user is causing that much disruption amd harassing people you could message the admin(s) of the user’s instance explaining the situation, provide evidence, and hope they’ll ban the user

if the user is banned and creates another account, repeat

if the user is on an instance that won’t ban them, contact the admins of other instances to try to have that instance deferated

solid is a neat idea, but the implementations are … jank, to put it politely, and the overall spec is hecking complicated

i don’t think the average developer, let alone user, is going to learn RDF and its various query and other adjunct languages just to control their data

i want to see it succeed, but i simply do not have high hopes on that front

sounds like the kind of policy an AI would make 🤔

i am glad my shitposting was educational

though tbh you’re unlikely to ever need this knowledge unless you’re heavily into functional programming or golfing or coding interviews or other esoteric arts

tail call optimization wants to know your location

brb deploying each bin from coreutils as a separate aws lambda function

quantum services

take your source code and put each character in its own docker container

this gives you the absolute peak of scalability and agility as every quantum of your application is decoupled from the others and can be deployed or scaled independently

implementing, operating and debugging this architecture is left as an exercise for the reader

that will be $250,000 kthx

roughly 32% of (eligible to vote) americans voted for trump

that’s hardly “most”

• student brought a bb gun to class and fired it at the japanese exchange teacher
• graduating year kids decided to “prank” a pregnant teacher by covering the stairs to her office in slippery material (eggs, iirc)
• another graduation “prank” was to let horses out of their field; they got onto train tracks and, well … no more graduation pranks
• history of teachers and staff sexually abusing students
• graveyard full of dead monks

wait this was a private catholic school nvm

at least all those state actors will have to fight it out to control my system

and i have an excuse for poor application performance

mate this is not the place for this

it’s hard work! I struggle with it myself, everyday

here’s a secret, though: you’re good, actually, even if you don’t Do Thing. I will believe this for you, even if your brain won’t

if neither works then you might as well be kind to yourself, ne

“Considered Harmful” Considered Harmful, 2002

I’m with HE on this one. KF is absolutely against their ToS, and if the various middle providers between HE and KF aren’t going to step in, they’re within their rights to drop that traffic.

At this level the Internet is still somewhat decentralized. KF can continue to find other hosts and ISPs that condone their horror, and said providers and peers have the right to drop them for being terrible. They could register their own ASN, broadcast routes, and other providers could still refuse to peer with them. I think this is good, actually.

but what about The Slippery Slope? next conservatives will be making ISPs take down vulnerable minorities! shouldn’t legislation be handling this?

The conservative folks are already attacking LGBTQ+ and any other minorities they want via legislation. Why would you think this is a good argument?
