Fediverse@lemmy.world•PieFed 1.3 is releasedEnglish
6·3 days agoCool!
Image markdown style formatting to allow more advanced control of how images are rendered. e.g. 
You might as just let users write the
<img>tags directly at this point, at least then you won’t add noise to third party apps’ accessibility stacks.(I honestly wouldn’t be opposed to letting users write HTML directly, it was one of Tumblr’s best features imo)

Casual Conversation@piefed.social•What is the oldest file you still have available? Could be a picture, a document, a photo that you've transferred all the way from the past to your current setupEnglish
1·4 days agoProbably a music file or picture I downloaded in 2019/20. I lost the laptop I used as a teen, so couldn’t transfer anything.

UK Politics@feddit.uk•Tactical voting set to thwart Farage's election hopes, poll showsEnglish
2·5 days agoFair enough, the Green party certainly has a strong conservationism-above-all-else element that like you describe and has been very influential in the party, with the other side being a progressive socdem/demsoc element. It’ll be interesting to see how this changes now the Greens have nearly tripled their members, most of whom are on the demsoc side of the party. Hell, I’m one of them and I certainly can’t be described as a NIMBY.

7·5 days agobut who also want their capital assets - primarily their house value - protected.
But the Green party’s primary support is from young people in urban areas, generally not people with assets. While the party certainly has had a Tory element in its electorate who matches what you say, it’s pretty reductive to say they’re the parties primary supports. There’s a reason the only MP the Greens had for over a decade was Brighton Pavilion.

6·5 days agoYou’d think given how many voters they’re losing to the Greens, they’d make more noise about the (pretty good, bar the carbon capture stuff) new carbon budget plan. But alas, this government seemingly can’t do comms.

Bandcamp@piefed.social•Anybody annoyed by the amount of suggested content on their feed?English
1·6 days agoI don’t get that, but I am firmly a metalhead so a different culture I suppose. Except black metal artists who tag their stuff death metal, like I swear half of what I see in the death metal tag is black metal without a lick of death in it.

4·6 days agoThis is what following genre tags does, genuinely one of Bandcamp’s worst features. Unfollow them and it’ll just be a reverse chronological order of releases/purchases from artist/users you follow.
They really need to add the ability to pin tags to genre selector in the ‘Discover’ view, like you can in the Android app.

Feddit UK@feddit.uk•Curious about the state of the UnionEnglish
8·10 days agoFor the moment, I’m the only admin and I have control of everything (domain + server). There aren’t currently any backup plans in place as other things got in the way. There was some discussion of setting up a Bitwarden premium account which would let someone have emergency access to the server passwords, but I’d need someone to volunteer for that now (if anyone’s interested helping the admin side of things, lmk).
And thinking about it, I should probably remove tom from the admin list just so people don’t contact them with random queries.
A ‘mode’ in emacs is a set of bindings which associate specific keys with specific functions.
Not quite, a mode is basically a lisp function defined with a different macro that integrates it into the various systems (like showing up in the modeline when active). It can do basically anything, including setting keybinds.
‘modes’ can be stacked on top of each other, with higher modes being able to intercept key presses before they reach lower modes, and changes / manipulate lower modes (I think?)
No, a keybind can only run one function and what that function is is whatever last defined a binding for that key. Like, if one mode defines a key to be something and you activate another that also binds that key, the latter takes over.
Emacs does have something like you describe, where functions can be ‘advised’.

Feddit UK@feddit.uk•Why is discuss.privacyguides.net defederated?English
2·16 days agoI’m not exactly happy with it, I’ve stumbled upon useful threads on that forum from searches a couple of times, but I just can’t justify the risks to user safety and potential legal culpability for the admin team. Their Lemmy instance was suppose to shut down in August, but yet it’s still up and federating.

6·16 days agoSame people that run lemmy.one that left CSAM undeleted for months. I simply don’t trust the people to moderate the instance appropriately given they didn’t do so with their Lemmy instance.

Games@sh.itjust.works•This is not an XboxEnglish
67·27 days agoI can’t count the number of times I’ve tapped the tiny button with three vertical lines right next to the tiny button with three horizontal lines, which can be a problem, because one of them pauses your game and and opens in-game menus, while the other kicks you out to your game library to launch a new game without pausing your game at all. If you press the library button a second time, it doesn’t take you back to your game, so you probably have to long-press the Xbox button to get back to your game, but not the Library button or the Control Center button because those will summon AI assistants instead, and if you understood everything I just wrote and found it reasonable then boy do I have the operating system for you.
Lol, Lmao. Peak Microsoft.

Obviously it’d only be a subset of HTML. No website that uses user-submitted HTML (Tumblr, AO3, Royal Road, etc) actually allows the full suite of tags.
