I’ve got a 1972 VW Super Beetle that I’ll never get rid of. It’s not really a desirable version or year of the Beetle, but my dad, grandpa, and I restored it when I was 9. My grandpa died in 2020 and he worked on cars his whole life. It’s cool to have a physical thing that he made possible using a lifetime of skills. Plus, my kid is getting old enough to work on it with me, and I think it’s awesome to have 4 generations of my family wrenching on it.

Lemmy 0.18 has resolved most of these for me. As the big instances update, hopefully this gets more stable for you!

The US military spends 2 trillion a year. I'd much rather see those resources go into rescue operations than the opposite. Poor people in a boat should absolutely get access to the same resources, and the crime here is not that billionaires did, but that the migrants didn't.

Conservatives don't seem to have trouble with boob jobs, etc. I think this is an instance of using religion as an excuse when it's convenient.

And WebKit is itself a fork of KHTML.

Just checked my own Lemmy postgres database, it's a 12 round Bcrypt 2b hash.

It uses Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite technology to communicate, though it is unclear if it was the cause of the loss of contact.

Surely this is the surface vessel and not the sub. Starlink communications are around 11 GHz, which can only propagate a couple meters in salt water.

I believe the M900 has both a SATA port and a M.2 slot, so some options for internal storage.

You could also plug in a big spinning drive via USB 3. USB 3 can move data faster than a magnetic drive can pull it off the platters.

I’d be happy to help beta test once you e got it on Test Flight!

I think the question about “being on Beehaw” is because you’ve been commenting on a post in a Beehaw community.

Oh nice, that’s better than my solution. Less risky than downgrading.

This update, specifically how funding is happening, helped me understand some of the reasoning behind the narrow focus of the Lemmy developers. I appreciate them foregoing their regular paychecks to work on stability. Hopefully things settle down soon to the point that the extra eyes and hands on the project are more helpful than they are distracting.
