It says something about the current relationship of large corporate apps and users when Slack makes an update - of particular annoyance is that the search bar at the top basically eats the entire border now making it impossible to move the window around unless you make the window sufficiently large - and my immediate thought is “this must have been deliberate in order to make sure Slack takes up as much of my screen as possible.”
It’s hard for me to think of a legitimate reason for how massive that search bar is and why it is so damn close to all the edges at the top making the window virtually immovable unless you greatly expand it.
Looks less likely I'll get an Autism assessment having just had a letter saying they're now running a triage service and I have to contact then if I want to be put on the list to be seen by them, and if they decide I need an assessment then I'll be put on the currently 20 month long waiting list for an assessment...
@news whomever runs the News bot, could you please stop boosting every single reply to every last post? I only want to see the initial News posts in my feed, not all of the replies.
Stands to perfect reason. Lemmings are essentially large rodents, mastadons are essentially large elephants, elephants don’t get along with mice, mastadons don’t get along with lemmings. Science!
I have a docker container running in portainer. I have added an SMB volume to the container. Does anyone know how I can update this docker container using docker-compose without undoing my changes? Thanks @selfhosted@Docker@portainerio
@Dirk thanks. That's how I did it but I am not sure if updating using docker compose would overwrite it. Portainer is running on a VM so I will make sure to snapshot it and try so I can restore it if needed.
When telling big national news stories, can we deliver local digital versions to every town in the UK? What about to every ward? Read more about our latest experiment in semi-automated content generation here https://bbcnewslabs.co.uk/news/2023/salco-2023/
That one was incredible. I still feel drawn to question, despite the episode’s resolution, whether being in the fields is preferable. Wonderful take on the ignorance is bliss theme
Such a well done mashup, really clever and incredible talent on display. I’m a huge Broadway fan and a massive trekkie so this was just a love letter to me and I’m beyond grateful. SNW is always a welcome surprise, every week.
We're exploring ways to improve our research processes, using methods which encourage a panel of users to share perspectives through discussion and debate.
This has helped us gauge views on the future of travel, media, car ownership and technology:
@BBCRD Awesome! I'd love to see the BBC expanding into other avenues across the fediverse. Have you considered adopting the Ligma protocol to standardize traffic across instances?
Conspiratorial but has a string of possibility. Note that Microsoft itself has a solution to workaround the TPM 2.0 needs on their forums, so Windows definitely is not going DRM kiosk mode on internet browsing this early.
Microsoft and Motherboard manufacturers: Putting DRM chips on the motherboard.
User: Why?
Microsoft: No reason.
User: Most businesses would switch to a cheaper toilet paper to save $5, why are you shipping chips and developing software and technology to use these chips.
Microsoft: Oh we’re not going to force anyone to do anything, we just want the ability to. Look at this workaround that we expect 0.015 of our billions of Windows users to use.
The problem with all the little tweaks is that it doesn't seem to work when you SSH into another system. I caught myself typing in CAPS on a remote system one too many time. Performed a little surgery on the keyboard and solved the problem.
Recently decided to try out @bookwyrm as a GoodReads replacement. It's refreshingly modern, with an effective import tool to bring my library over.
I don't have much of a network there, but then I didn't really use the GoodReads social features. My user over there is @YouNaughtyMonsters (thanks Iain M Banks!)
Oh I see, oops. Sorry for tagging you then. I also just realised that bookwyrm is a different thing from Lemmy, but just on the fediverse as well, so my link does not make sense in any way
