Carrie Fisher died after the premiere of Rogue 1, so she doesn’t belong on this list.

thallamabond OP ,

You are absolutely correct, and I’m going to change the body of the party to reflect that.

I knew I had read about Carrie Fisher doing apostomus performance and mistook her de-aging in Rogue One as that performance. Turns out it was Rise of the Skywalker that included previously shot footage which was her posthumous performance. ign.com/…/how-was-carrie-fisher-in-star-wars-rise…

Happy 30th! Now you can legally call the distro oldtimer in Germany.

If they want feedback, give them feedback.

On windows is there no other way of uninstalling a program beside their own uninstaller? If so that seems like it would be really easy to abuse.

fushuan ,

Of course that you can delete all the files and folders of the program, but firewalls and such operate on a quite low level and fining all the files is a pain in the ass

nehal3m ,

There’s also registry entries, and I imagine some of the files installed as part of a firewall end up as essential for a working network connection because they’re registered as such.

Control panel can do it, the software can pop up and ask you why you did it, did you like their product, etc.

Speeder172 ,

I highly advise you using Revo Uninstaller who cleans the regedit and looks for remaining files

jarfil ,

Depends on the installer. Windows has been pushing the .MSI installer format which is managed to some extent by a centralized system install manager, meaning the system should be able to revert the changes without any custom uninstaller. Installers can still bypass it to some degree though, and it has an option to run a custom .exe on uninstall, but there is also a special cleanup tool (you have to download it separately from Windows support forums) that can “force remove” all the stuff installed by the .MSI.

But otherwise it’s like asking “can’t you uninstall a .deb without running a custom uninstaller script included in the .deb?”…

SevenDigitCode , to technology in Passwords

My favorite, though, is:

types in password“Password incorrect” goes to reset password“please enter a new password” types in password“your new password cannot be the same”

That just means you entered it wrong the first time.

i have had this happen on some websites occasionally while using my password manager.

tony ,

Sometimes it means the page checking the password is following a different ruleset eg. the main page is case sensitive and the change password page isn’t. Sometimes it’s stuff like the entered password is silently truncated to a fixed number of characters and because of that won’t let you log in. Sometimes it’s wierd character expansions being passed directly to the password checking routine (&amp; or similar).

I know it’s easy to just rag on twitter, but I think that everyone needs to remember that a lot of the problems Twitter is facing are also problems that the entire industry is facing.

Ad rates are down across the board. You hear YouTubers talking about it, you here people who run websites talking about it, and that’s just the way things are.

Everyone got really pissed off at Elon for the mass layoffs, but everyone seems to forget that every other company also did layoffs just a few months later.

In short, blame them for the stuff that he actually did, not systemic trends that affect everyone.

Soundhole ,

Are you honestly arguing Musk did NOT somehow fundamentally fuck up Twitter? That he was a victim of circumstance? Give me a break, dawg.

SJ_Zero ,
@SJ_Zero@lemmy.fbxl.net avatar

I’m saying blame him for the things he actually did. Just like I said I said.

It’s turning into a recurring gag for me to see another news article about some website (like reddit, for example) crashing and burning and my response is “Why would Elon Musk do this?”

I think you misunderstand what is happening. You're merely guests in the cats second home, and he's making sure you're not misbehaving in his property. That cat is on the make.

vreten , to nostupidquestions in Is there any way to get the infinite scrolling like on reddit?

I use mlmym.org/lemm.ee/post/1199480, looks like old reddit, has night mode, and endless scroll, just like the good old days before that stupid new reddit shit.

I wonder if this can become an official theme for Lemmy that can be selected!

Ok this seems to be exactly what I was looking for. I love the look of old reddit as it’s so compact. Thanks!
