“Finnegans Wake is the greatest guidebook to media study ever fashioned by man.” - Marshall McLuhan, Newsweek Magazine, page 56, February 28, 1966.
I have never done LSD or any other illegal drugs, but I have read FInnegans Wake: www.LazyWake.com

Keep in mind that you’re going to be retrieving and storing a huge amount of data running these scripts
And you are adding to the overload of lemmy.world, beehaw, lemmy.ml, etc who have all the popular content communities. Federation has a lot of overhead, as does having to distribute a community one vote at a time to 500 subscribed servers.
pend my time on Lemmy scrolling “All”, which I think is a pretty common thing.
There was a lot of advice handed out back in June that the answer to scaling Lemmy was to go create instances. The reason it works is because “All” is empty on a virgin system ;) With no data in the database, the logic Lemmy hands to PostgreSQL works real fast ;)
the module can cause intermittent stuttering, depending on which Ryzen processor you’re using. It appeared when the fTPM was in use, it would access its flash storage via a serial interface, and when doing so, held up activity by the rest of the system.
The interesting thing about Snowden to me after 10 years is how few times I see the public think about how low-level staff with hardware-level access can bypass all command and control decisions. He was a contractor who just wholesale scooped data off the servers. Nearly 10 years later… Jack Teixeira leaks documents because he has server access to documents outside his immediate need too.
I think a lot of organizations really don’t see how vulnerable they are to deliberate attacks and theft - if the NSA can’t protect their data 10 years ago, do you really think your mobile phone network provider or these VPN companies are not subject to internal staff selling off data, etc?
it’s not very difficult to modify the code for something like this… and closing off registration wont’ let anyone else login and create new content form your istance.
Personally the load on the major servers by having one more instance that subscribes to everything is why I think people should back off from creating more than the 1500 instances Lemmy network already has. Delivery of every single vote, comment, post 24 hours a day just so one person can read content for an hour or two a day.
That makes sense for email systems where all that content doesn’t have to be sent, but for Lemmy it’s a huge amount of overhead.
