I wonder if the house is still there, bricked in forever…

I assume the alternative would be that it’s been filled in, or bomb damaged and filled with rubble.

I’ve been addicted to Picross since the first one came out on Switch, so I guess I’ll be buying this when I finish the current game.

S3. Took a couple years off but I’m back on it now!

The amount this is being shoved down my throat in theatre trailers and elsewhere tells me they are worried that many people simply don’t give a shit about it.

I’m not sure “utopia” is the correct word for what this plan was about, at least not for anyone but Henry Ford.

Manually adding all 1,500 links

this is the bit I don’t get.

It could have done without the car chase Chevy ad, but I thought overall it was far above my expectations. Not surprised it’s doing well, the whole movie theatre were laughing out loud.

I don’t pay more than £400 for a phone. So that.

I created !oldphotosinreallife, which has over 300 subscribers, but limited interaction.

Thanks! Plenty good will and community on Lemmy :-)

I just don’t use email enough anymore, except for work which is all Outlook.

I started up !oldphotosinreallife and it’s basically just me posting. Not really much traction but who knows, maybe it’ll get going.

Not really a fan of these, but then my favourite at the moment is a terminal watch face so maybe I’m not their target

If you like Mastodon but miss that Twitter layout, I’d suggest looking up Elk. It’s a web client version which can be installed, I’m very impressed so far.

I’m thinking nope, not for me. If other use it then I still avoid longer queuing but I’d rather not submit my bio identifiers to a private companies app for this.

I used Thunderbird about 10 years ago? Looks amazing compared to what I remember.

I suspect the weird recurring memes that require decade old knowledge of the platform to fully understand is going to create some “quirky” AI hallucinations

Giving it out free devalues those trying to profit from the same product. And if it’s free, open source platforms can benefit too.

My I’m feeling optimistic tonight.

That’s sort of where I was going I guess. Now Meta are involved it’s a buzzword.

Has anyone else been trying to break their reddit-era habit of downvoting?

I used to downvote fairly often on Reddit as a sign to disagree or to push down really disgusting bigoted comments. And to be honest, it became a habit to just downvote without replying. However, now that I’m on lemmy and not Reddit I’ve been actively trying to not instantly downvote things and instead move on or take the...

I barely voted at all on Reddit, trying to be more engaged here.

Wither GDPR applies to an individual instance will be up to those running the instance to decide.

If you decide it does, then you need to do a few things. Number one is read up advice on compliance with GDPR.

Being able to delete data alone doesn’t mean GDPR compliance. I’m thinking about the need for privacy notices on sign up, retention schedules for data, lawful basis of processing, records of processing activities… Data subjects have numerous rights, which apply depend on the lawful basis you’re processing under.

I’d suggest that larger general instances might want to read up more urgently than smaller single focus “hobby” instances.

edit: more I think about this, I think there is an moral responsibility for the developers to help those running instances comply. If GDPR does not apply to an instance, it is still good practice to allow uses to delete their data, etc… Also, art. 20 of GDPR is the right to portability. Interesting to see how this applies to fediverse platforms like Lemmy.

My statement about it being up to those running instances is mean in terms of it’s up to them to read the legislation and come to a conclusion. If I were hosting an instance I’d certainly assume it applied, though I doubt there has been any case testing its implementation in this sort of situation.

I can see someone starting a lawsuit against a standards incompliant server that ignores deletes and edits, though.

I wonder if the first data breach will draw the attention of a regulator. We’re all using essentially alpha software, with no privacy notice, I doubt there are RoPAs or DPIAs, I doubt there is a DPO… all those things might upset someone like the ICO in the UK if a breach were to occur.

Edit: saying that, I’m not sure any breach would even be reportable given what data is collected by Lemmy.

It’s unbelievably polished for a first release. Not 100% feature complete mind you, but it’s mind blowing the dev pull this off.

seacocker,
@seacocker@lemmy.world avatar

Is this what everyone is using now? I was using Megalodon, Tusky, and the original app, but I’ve skipping a few updates of all of them.

As I recall, Reddit really dragged their heels in implementing GDPR-mandated data checkouts, citing technical challenges and privacy issues, but I'm sure it was more about the technical challenges and laziness (old codebase that has kind of sucked since forever and they're not keen on touching it). This was when the law went into effect in 2018.

I requested archives of my data from Reddit as per GDPR a few weeks ago, and it's still pending. And the page said "oh, uh, we'll provide them within 30 days." ...which is well within the letter of the law, if not the spirit. Other sites I've requested my data from can provide it within days, usually.

All I can say as someone who's been perplexed about Reddit's tech side for a long time is that it's pretty damn emblematic of the whole site.

seacocker,

They might not have bothered to implement an automated setup just for EU & UK users, meaning it's an ad-hoc process each time. If they go over the 1 month you can head over to the ICO website and file a report.
