Everything you do on your own instance is against a cached version of the original post that is saved on your instance. Your instance sends updates in the background, the other instance can be entirely down and you can still browse, comment, and vote as normal on your own. The updates will just stay local though.

It doesn’t. Even if you defederate with an instance, you can still comment and vote on posts from that instance that predate the defederation and people on your instance will see them, it just won’t go to the original one.

Depends on tolerances, I’d probably see if a Chipolo or some other tracker would fit. Android ones are coming very soon.

Bitrot, (edited ) to asklemmy in Lets start a new Lemmy holiday tradition. What's a song you've been digging lately?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Entire album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess by Chappell Roan. I don’t like every song, but most. It’s a lot of fun.

Also the song Grown Up by Raffaella makes me laugh.

Bitrot, to asklemmy in What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I find this usually gets the attention of the other owner as well.

Bitrot, to linux in Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

There have been. Creating another one creates another one. Not that someone shouldn’t, but it will always be one among many.

I just get ads in multiple languages, even in podcasts.

Bitrot, (edited ) to linux in How to update the BIOS on a Dell laptop running Linux
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

fwupd can install from exe using the Dell script in github.com/fwupd/fwupd/tree/…/firmware_packager

However that model is supported natively too: fwupd.org/lvfs/…/com.dell.uefi3b49e316.firmware

IE: install gnome-firmware from flatpak or native package manager and it can do the whole thing, no need to download some exe.

If you use Obsidian for work you generally need to pay for the commercial license, with some exceptions. I like to mention it because people grab it from flathub without reading the license terms. This is not including the sync fee.

Bitrot, to asklemmy in What are the best e-readers on the market?
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Yeah Boox seems nice but I won’t support a comany that violates open source software licenses.

It is not compatible with Kindle unless you remove the drm and convert it, but it can be done. It is compatible with Adobe Digital Editions which is pretty much what every store except Amazon uses.

Bitrot, to linux in Just about every Windows and Linux device vulnerable to new LogoFAIL firmware attack
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

It’s reminiscent of boot sector viruses in the DOS days.
