Unanimous Supreme Court restores Trump to Colorado ballot in c/world@lemmy.world

The Constitution says nothing about them being charged. It talks about them "engaging" in that behavior but there is no requirement for being charged with or convicted of that behavior. The Supreme Court is making this all up as they go.

When I say illegal immigrants I'm talking about the way they entered the country. Illegal is an adverb in this situation because it describes the way they immigrated.

In the future I'll try to use "illegally immigrating persons" so as to make this absurdly clear.

It is very telling when the laws are used to dissuade and punish the illegal immigrants for working instead of the companies and corporations for hiring them. If you make illegal labor unprofitable then you will largely get rid of it.

Well you're definitely slinging a bunch of bullshit around without any proof so why not just STFU? When you are getting massive downvotes for your incorrect claims you double-down and start calling names?! This is a clear sign of somebody who isn't worth listening to or their ideas/opinions worth regarding.

You've been spending too much time around conservatives.

📱Question about GrapheneOS factory reset in c/technology@beehaw.org
[–] stown@sedd.it 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fresh Graphene. In order to get stock Android back you would need to install it back on your phone. A factory reset removes all data, settings, and apps that were put on the phone by the user.

Then why make the claim as if it were fact?

In order to prove this you would need a huge sample poll from each religion and it would need to be representative of the size of each flavor. Then and only then could you begin to make that kind of generalized statement.

Judging a group of people by one of its members is wrong, it's the same form of prejudice.

Does email (SMTP/POP3) count as a member of the fediverse? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] stown@sedd.it 7 points 1 year ago

It seems like reading comprehension is not what it used to be.

"Much like" == "very similar too" AKA, "close, but no cigar"

You wouldn't compare something to the same something, that's kind of the point of comparisons.

XMPP Server? (sedd.it)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by stown@sedd.it to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
23 comments fedilink
 

I'm looking to try self-hosting an XMPP server for my family to use as a secure communication platform. I realize that end2end encryption with XMPP doesn't seem as strong as something like Matrix but my self-hosted Matrix server has been very unreliable.

I'm looking for recommendations and resources. I'v considered running Prosody and Openfire but both of them look like a pretty involved installation process with plenty of room to fuck up. Does anyone know of something similar to matrix-ansible-install for an XMPP server? Should I be looking at something besides Prosody or Openfire?

Please, no YouTube tutorials. I prefer written instructions.

Mark Post as Read? (sedd.it)
 

Is there currently a way on Lemmy-ui to mark a post as "read" so that it no longer shows up in the feed? As the admin of my personal server I know I can remove the post but I'm looking for a solution that doesn't affect others on my instance. I see a setting for hiding read posts but I don't see a way to mark a post as being read.

If you are updating Lemmy to version 0.18.0 you may want to be aware of this bug that exists with site icons. It will break your site.

Lemmy behind 2 Proxies (sedd.it)
 

cross-posted from: https://sedd.it/post/2576

Just wanted to know if I should expect any issues with this set-up. 1st proxy is NGINX on the host machine (Ansible-setup). 2nd proxy is NGINX on OPNsense. I'm using self signed certs on the host machine because I don't want port 80 left open. OPNsense ACME plugin manages my certificates.

I've noticed that a lot of comments do not get pulled with posts. Also, I am unable to log in to my server with Jerboa.

Does lemmy use port 80 for anything besides getting SSL certs? Will the double proxy screw up federation or my ability to log in through 3rd party solutions?
