Why is the NYT resorting to clickbait headlines?

Tailscale is also ridiculously easy to use for this purpose. The serve and Funnel features make secure self hosting really easy from your tailnet (one can easily provision certificates for nodes using Let's Encrypt from the CLI: https://tailscale.com/blog/reintroducing-serve-funnel

Your point is well taken. However, there are communities where some of the bot posted content is just interesting enough to read, and I'm not sure that the owners of the rss@ or b0t@ accounts care much about their upvote / downvote ratios, but I suppose it could help some of Voyager's sorting filters.

Is that an Android client specific option? I don't see that item in Voyager 2.28 on iOS, but perhaps I haven't had enough coffee.

It might just be the lighting in the photo, but the coiled wire sitting on the top metal shelf appears to be thinner and darker than the coax cables running down to the splitter. Could it be Cat 5/6 cable?

As others have said, one's view of Lemmy is highly dependent upon the instances and communities that one frequents. As someone who isn't a habitué of politics, news, sport or meme communities, I've found my fellow lemmings to be pleasant, but I also believe that that is due to trying to be helpful and polite myself and being willing to apologize when warranted.

Without the benefit of context, but with the benefit of a degree of fashion knowledge, I'll posit that this photo was taken in the DRC, and that these are Congolese sapeurs, who occupy a unique and wonderful niche in the style world -- see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Sape (La Sape being the movement of sapeurs and sapeuses, their female counterparts), as well as https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/gallery/2020/aug/27/congolese-dandies-meet-the-stylish-men-and-women-of-brazzaville-in-pictures , which has an excellent photo gallery showing examples of La Sape style.

Same here! My mind struggled to align the image of kebab production with the concept of artificial spiritual guidance...

"...PPS stands for Programmable Power Supply. It’s a method by which a USB-C device can request variable voltage and current delivery on demand..."

I hadn't noticed that until now. Thanks!
