A change regarding Peertube federation with Lemmy certainly does appear to be coming in Lemmy 1.0 [1], but it’s currently unknown to me if it does actually fix the issue.

#5509 fixes this, it will be released as part of Lemmy 1.0
- This is referring to code that was pushed to the repository that allegedly fixes the issue with Peertube federation.

[…] I think their saing the snake in the photo beleaves that they will get to be the boot someday
If that’s the case, the exact meaning of that statement isn’t exactly clear to me. Does “the snake in the photo” refer to people who support liberty in general? Does it refer only to people who stand beside the Gadsden flag? Does it refer to people who misappropriate the Gadsden flag?

IMO, an entity that supports authoritarianism has no business associating itself with the Gadsden flag in the first place. So I’m not exactly sure what message this image is trying to convey. Is it saying that those who support liberty fundamentally support authoritarianism somehow? Is it calling out those who misappropriate the Gadsden flag?. Is it accusing those who espouse liberty of cowardice of inaction whilst they are oppressed by authoritarianism?
For clarity, are you saying that you want to be represented by boot in the image?
Kalcifer@sh.itjust.worksto Gay: News, Memes and Discussion@lemmy.world•Trump administration erase references to bisexuality from Stonewall National Monument siteEnglish2·4 days agoThe report that the Stonewall national monument’s website does not contain references to “bisexuality” is false, or at least currently inaccurate: The article claims the following:
She highlighted changes to the language used on the site: “On Stonewall’s website it read that before the 1960s, almost everything about living openly as a lesbian, gay or bisexual was illegal — as if living as a transgender person was not illegal at that time. Well, just this month they’ve made a new change. It now reads that almost everything about living authentically as a gay or lesbian person was illegal. [2]
yet, currently, this is how the site appears:

Kalcifer@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•People who use non-QWERTY keyboards: what do you use?English1·21 hours agoI retrained myself in Dvorak many years back […]
It’s been a while since I’ve tried Dvorak, so I’m not very confident in my memory, but, iirc, I rememeber Dvorak causing some discomfort in my wrists. Not as bad as QWERTY, mind you, but I found that Workman was much more comfortable for me. Plus, I found that the general proximity of Workman to QWERTY, when compared with the proximity of Dvorak to QWERTY, made it much more convenient to use. For example, on Workman, copy and paste (ie
Ctrl+C
andCtrl+V
) are each just moved over one key to the right [1], whereas Dvorak puts them on the opposite end of the keyboard [2], that is, when comparing them with QWERTY [3].References

Yggdrasil was the first company to create a live CD Linux distribution. […] [1]
Neat! Though, from a brief search, it’s not clear to me if that means that they were the first “live CD Linux distribution” overall, or just the first company to release one.

Kalcifer@sh.itjust.worksOPto Linux@programming.dev•"I installed Linux (so should you)" by PewDiePieEnglish1·4 days ago[…] But unlike pewds I’m sure they would call out a lot of cons cause they seem more relatable to normal people than pwd who calls everyone a normie.

Kalcifer@sh.itjust.worksto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that apart from not having a car and voting, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat.English283·6 days agoWhat bother’s me about these sorts of posts is they don’t give people a consumption goal. Blindly telling everyone to consume less isn’t exactly fair. Say, for example, there’s person A who consumes 1 unit of red meat per month, and person B who consumes 100 units of red meat per month. If you say to everyone “consume 1 unit of red meat less per month”, well, now person A consumes 0 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 99 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Say, you tell everyone “halve your consumption of red meat per month”, well, now person A consumes 0.5 units of red meat per month, and person B consumes 50 units of red meat per month. Is that fair? Now, say, you tell everyone “you should try to eat at most 2 units of meat per month”, well now person A may happily stay at 1 unit knowing that they’re already below the target maximum, they may choose to decrease of their own accord, or they may feel validated to increase to 2 units of red meat per month, and person B will feel pressured to dramatically, and (importantly, imo) proportionally, reduce their consumption. Blindly saying that everyone should reduce their consumption in such an even manner disproportionately imparts blame, as there are likely those who are much more in need of reduction than others. It may even be that a very small minority of very large consumers are responsible for the majority of the overall consumption, so the “average” person may not even need to change their diet much, if at all, in order to meet a target maximum.
[…] Second thing is getting a capture card that records the resulting 1080p och 720p output from the ADC. I got a relatively cheap one which then plugs into the pc with usb-a. […]
I want to capture interlaced — not progressive [2][1]. I don’t want any deinterlacing done by the capture card [3].

[…] First thing to do is to convert the analogue signal to hdmi. […]
Why? What’s wrong with directly capturing composite? I have yet to come across an HDMI capture card that doesn’t process the signal in some way (eg no upscaling, no deinterlacing). I’m doing this for archival purposes so I want the signal as unadulterated as possible. This also includes these sorts of transformations you mention:
[…] After that i setup a scene with the capture card as source and transform the output using obs to get the resolution, size and format i want. […]
[…] Whatever signal you are receiving in obs wont need deinterlacing, unless the capture device is bad at its job. […]
As I mentioned in my post, I have deinterlacing disabled. I don’t want to deinterlace.
