From the RFC, it sounds like the system proposed here is more robust than what kbin has. Tags on kbin are just freeform user-defined hashtags.

Ernest would be the one that would have to ban them from the site. A comment he made recently about the spam situation:

This month, the largest update is planned. It's taking a long time because part of the team is returning from vacation, hence the delays. I hope that the update will resolve some of the most pressing issues. I'm also trying to remove spam systematically, but currently, the code is my priority. After implementing the new version, I will seriously address the community.

If there's anything urgent, currently contacting through the form is the quickest option. Cheers!

All caught up now. I was procrastinating about getting the cloud server set up, and finally decided to just go with the local virtual machine option instead of falling further behind.

I'm pretty experienced as a Linux user, but my professional background is in software development, not systems administration. Most of the material has just been review for me so far, though I have learned a few new things.

NSFW Armored Core meme that I found while lurking on blahaj.zone (I don't know anything about this game, but it made me laugh)

Do you have any domains blocked? Domain blocking is buggy right now, so it may be hitting that post. I can see the comments.

The minimal install of Ubuntu Server 22.04 doesn't have auth.log set up by default. To enable it, you'll need to install a system logging daemon. I went with rsyslog, because that's what's installed on my desktop Ubuntu system:

sudo apt install rsyslog

Tab-completion also didn't seem to be working consistently. It would work for commands, directories, and files, but not for other command arguments. To enable this, you need the bash-completion package:

sudo apt install bash-completion

Log out and then log back in to enable it. Now you should be able to do things like timedatectl li and then hit tab, and it will get completed to timedatectl list-timezones.

They don't seem to realize that they're supposed to wait until after they've gained power to pull that shit.

This is what really gets me about their brigading nonsense. The fediverse is very heavily leftist already. In large part they're attacking other leftists while claiming to be a "left unity" instance. -_-

As an alternative to the script, you can use this one-liner to get the total size of the current directory and all subdirectories:

du -sh | awk '{print $1}'

The du command recursively outputs the total size of each subdirectory under the specified path, or under the current directory if no path is specified. The -s option causes it to output just the total instead of listing all the individual subdirectories. The -h option gives output in "human readable" units. The output will look something like this:

32K .

The . means the current directory. If we didn't specify the -s option, there would be additional lines with filesizes and directory names listed. However, we only want the 32K part, without the spaces or the directory name. Fortunately there's another command that's good for working with data that's in "table" format, with rows and columns. We use the | character to specify that we want the output from the first command, du, redirected into the second command, awk.

The awk command has an entire scripting language that you can use, but for our purposes we only need a single statement, '{print $1}'. This takes the value from the first column of each line and writes it to the output, ignoring the rest. If we used $2 instead of $1, it would output the second column instead. Columns are assumed to be separated by some number of space or tab characters.

State poverty levels were also tightly linked with pediatric firearm death rates, the study found.

They named reddit “stormfront”, to insinuate that for them, reddit is filled with nazis. Though maybe they meant stormfront.org, a place filled with actual nazis.

It's the former. The image with snoo and stormfront is their way of referring to reddit.
