Hey, I just watched that exchange.
I have been binging this show since looking it up when I saw the previous “Dark Trek” Meme.

Lemm.ee is European.
sunaurus (the owner) is from Estonia
And the instance is currently hosted in Finnland.

That short segment about Tony seems relatively positve.

It varies: Mostly it just removes the html of the banner from website. For some more annoying websites for example YouTube it clicks decline.

You don’t need an extra extension for the cookie notices. Just use uBlock Original for that:
Under Filter lists enable “Cookie notices”

cobalt.tools supports lots of sites (YouTube, Reddit etc.).
It‘s like an anemic version of yt-dlp in the browser.

Yeah, that is the video.
Here is it freed from TikTok.

cobalt.tools supports TikTok downloads among other sites.

The message was on Xitter from Andy Yen, but it was highlight on Mastodon by Jonah from Privacyguides.
The official Proton account also tried to defend Andy Yen on Mastodon (and later deleted it).

Here the link to the thread on Mastodon.

My head canon is that Paul Stamets has no idea who the fuck Musk is, and that he didn’t want to interrupt Captain Lorca’s seemingly encouraging speech. So this is definitely a slip (in my head canon) since Musk is definitely a prominent historical figure in the Mirror Universe.

According to caniuse it seems to have been only ever available in nightly.
For anyone interested here is a test site for jpeg xl (and other image formats).

No, you need nightly or an extension.
Enabling image.jxl.enabled in builds other than nightly won’t do anything.

Both c/conservative on Lemm.ee and Lemmy.world are currently unmoderated (no community moderators).
The one community moderator on .ee got banned for some Nazi shit.
Now in both communities there is lots of love for trans people🏳️‍⚧️

Where did you get the impression that Lemm.ee is (more) right-leaning?
Lemm.ee does not really have a leaning (in the fediverse).

Lemm.ee has awesome uptime, hands of moderation, up to date Lemmy, and doesn’t defedarate (we live in the glorious age of Lemmy 19 and not in the dark ages anymore; the user can block stuff).

Only Apple supports JPEG XL.
Neither Chromium nor Firefox supports it (Chromium needs an extension and in Firefox you have to configure a variable in Nightly).

Here are the different methods of uploading to libgen. The forum (you need to make a throwaway account) is online at the moment.
If you don’t want to do that, just wait a bit for libgen to come online again.

SLUM: The Shadow Library Uptime Monitor
For an uptime overview.

You are not arguing in good faith.
I have linked multiple times to the docs and to the GitHub repository of flatpak.
Now how about you link to something useful in the docs that proves your point or maybe just a random article as source to your misinformation.

So you linked to apt.
I guess good for anyone who finds this interesting…
But more on topic here is is a link to answer from 2020 from an flatpak maintainer:

If a user installs or updates a specific app-id the code verifies that:

• The new app is gpg signed by a trusted key
• Checksum verifying that all files are untampered with
• The new app has that app id
• The new app has a later timestamp on update

Ah, I was just about to post this.
This is the perfect post for lemmy on so many levels.

You have not provided a single link.

I’m am no expert on flatpak and just did some basic searching.
From reading the command reference it seems GPG-Verification is enabled for each remote and can’t be disabled/enabled for each install. I can just find some issues where gpg verification fails

Error: GPG verification enabled, but no signatures found (use gpg-verify=false in remote config to disable)
error: Failed to install bundle fr.handbrake.ghb: GPG verification enabled, but no signatures found (use gpg-verify=false in remote config to disable)

Documentation seems to be more user oriented and not developer oriented maybe someone more knowledgeble can go in the source code and tell us how it actually works.
