In all seriousness, is the Dev using the build date as the version number....? July 8th, 2023 at 12:34am - vYY.MM.DD-HH.mm

Unusual approach for sure as you have no clue if it is a major version change or minor bug fixes.

This is insanely cool... I don't know why it never occurred to me that bots on other platforms could work here due to federation, but it makes so much sense. Thanks for sharing!

Well it's a good thing the max draw of a switch is 18W, and this device has a specific 9V power profile for the switch. The 30W is there to support devices with a faster power delivery spec (such as the Steam Deck).

I would check out the Genki Covert Dock. It is a game changer when bringing the switch outside the house, but absolutely could be plugged in most of the time at home.

Its a wonderful grab and go dock, and they extensively tested switch compatibility - have had zero issues with mine.

Not shocked that the FAST model has unpredictable revenue downturns. But I was surprised to read that Plex has roughly 175 employees - that seems way, way higher than I would have expected.

Oh without a doubt.

I do miss some of the silly quirky fun subs (r/HyruleEngineering I'm looking at you), but my normal usage needs have been met by a blend of Lemmy and Kbin (if Lemmy is having a rough day, I subscribed to the same communities on Kbin and can access from that side, or vice-versa).

"plunges" by a whole 10%, and primarily only during the initial 2 days. Has since mostly rebounded. That is disappointing.

Will see what happens July 1st of course when apps finally stop working.

That was what I got from the article too. That the 700k was lost opportunity due to a poor user experience, not that it actually was them spending more money.

I feel like suspending the specific rules is the only viable long term protest. As much fun as John Oliver pics are, eventually people will tire of the meme.

TortoiseGit user here. Love that it integrates with Windows Explorer so I don't have to constantly be opening an app first to fire off some Git commands.

Thank you for linking the source! Seems OP was just mistaken about what they were seeing.

I was able to confirm that the database includes email address and password hash.

Uhhhh not loving that if true... Why would password hashes need to be sent all over the planet...? That's a security bomb just ticking.

Shouldn't each instance only need to be tracking user Metadata, with only the original users instance handling authentication...? After all my personal interaction is happening on my instance.
