No, you still need a phone number to sign up. You can now optionally have a username as well, but a phone number remains a hard requirement.

Make them arrest hundreds of people then. Good luck.

Why a professor of fascism left the US: ‘The lesson of 1933 is – you get out’ in c/[email protected]

When I think about the immigrants coming to Ellis Island, lots of those people had nothing. They sold everything to afford the trip to the US and risked everything. Same thing today with immigrants coming to America literally on foot carrying their only worldly possessions, risking everything on a trip through the desert for the chance at a better life.

So when people say, “it’s not a practical solution,” yeah, I get it’s not ideal, but it’s possible to be poor and relocate. And if you’re in fear for your life, that means it’s something you need to do, regardless of how difficult it is.

I just want to ride a bike without constant fear of death. LA is statistically one of the most dangerous cities to ride a bike. I don’t care if it’s far—10 miles of sunshine and exercise and not dealing with bumper to bumper traffic sounds great to me, if I’m likely to arrive with my skull still in tact.

That’s the dumbest comment section I’ve ever read.

The Russian trolls are working overtime to justify military action against American people at the objection of the governor and mayor.

Harvard should spin up a campus in an actual free country and start migrating staff and students there. Any country in the world would be thrilled to have Harvard.

No inflation if we don’t check. Another problem solved.

How do you provision a Linux VM? (paravoce.bearblog.dev)
 

Hi friends, I'm back, this time jotting down some notes around my go-to way to provision VMs using Ansible. This post assumes Debian (Nix may be a future post).

Of course there's many ways to provision a server, and this is just one of them. I hope some of these notes are helpful!

If you have any other ways you prefer to set up a server, that would be cool to share!

How do you deploy in 10 seconds? (paravoce.bearblog.dev)

Hi friends, as promised, I'm back with my second post. I'll be hanging around in the comments for any questions!

In this post, I take a look at a typical deployment process, how long each part of it takes, and then I present a simple alternative that I use which is much faster and perfect for hobbit software.

Sharing some lessons I learned from 10 years/millions of users in production. I’ll be in the comments if anyone has any questions!

I hope this series will be useful to the self-hosted and small web crowds—tips for tools to pick and the basics of server management.

I hope some of the lessons in this series help people learn to adopt Linux directly into their stack as a simple tool that can be managed easily on a server.

Culver City and the Expo Bike Path (lemmy.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/16790112

Just tried commuting on my bike from Santa Monica to downtown Culver City today. I took the Exposition bike path, which was fine until I needed to get off of it to head south.

Google recommended I take National and--lo and behold--there's no bike lane with cars flying past at 55mph+ on blind hills. That's a death trap.

On the way home I left early to avoid traffic. I took Venice Blvd, since it has a protected bike lane all the way until McLaughlin which Google Maps called "bicycle friendly." No bike lane, of course, with cars flying past leaving a foot of distance between me and death. One testy driver in a BMW didn't want to wait the 15 seconds for me to pedal into the left turn lane to get back onto the Exposition bike path, honking and then flying by nearly killing me. Jeez lady, I'm not the city planner. Don't kill me to save 15 seconds.

How does Culver City put zero bike lanes going north to south connecting to the Exposition path? How do these drivers maintain their licenses?

What's a cyclist to do?
