What happened to actor-relative URLs proposal?
I saw this FEP months ago and thought it was pretty promising. However, it seems that there is no update from then. Does anyone know about this?

For those who don't know this proposal brings portable identity across fediverse.

What can the android app see when running in Waydroid?
cross-posted from: leminal.space/post/12999238
Hi,when running an Android app in Waydroid, what data can it see? Can it read my local hard drive? Can it scan my network? Can I manage it to just live in it's container and get nothing but an internet connection?
If you want waydroid to see files on the host, you need to muck around with bind-mounting a directory, or just using abd to move files manually.
I think waydroid can't see anything beyond itself normally. I had a hell of a time trying to get files on there, so if there's an easy way to get Waydroid to see files on the host, I couldn't find it.

At their self-imposed rates of 1 new Alpha at the last Thursday of every month, and assuming only 2 Betas, and assuming they can get Alpha 5 done in December, we're looking at the end of April for release, though I'd realistically expect Epoch 1 at the end of June or July, or maybe even after that.
This is normal in Software Development.
I know. I'm a CS student, but they are still in a pretty early stage of their project and don't have anywhere near the technical debt or size of projects like Plasma or GNOME, and as such, I think they should still be able to keep on going at a pretty fast pace.
And we got Alpha 4 a week late, compared to the old release schedule of the last Thursday of every month
i bet most likely due to the US holiday. 28/11 and 29/11 were the Thanksgiving and Black Friday holiday in US
Generating the Image in the Windows side?
Forgot to include the boot/system volume. It's a lovely time waster when you're dealing with disk images that are hundreds of gigabytes in size that have to be copied over the network. 😆
I'll add Disk2hvd screenshots when I get a sec.
Situation gets slightly more complicated if you had multiple drives in your system when you installed Windows, of course. Installer might put system volume on a different drive, so you'd have to image more than one drive to get a working system. Might get a little confusing as to which volumes should go in which image. There's a tool called GWMI that might help with that since afaik the volume guids don't show up in the Windows Disk Management snap-in.
Edit: The promised screenshot. In my case, I knew the volume labelled SYSTEM resided on the same disk as my C: drive. Probably don't have to include the recovery partition, strictly speaking, but I did.

It's hard to make a good weather forecast tool without theoretical elements incorporated in it.
I'm sure the model produces higher accuracy results on historical data. I read the abstract and it's not mentioned if they tested it on new data.
With ml, the most difficult part of the work is making sure not to overfit historical data. Is target have a less accurate model (on the training data) than a model that can be justified using theoretical reasoning. This way, I can be much more confident that it will work in the long run.
Let's see where this will go in the coming years!

Cant shutdown the system!(Fedora crashed)
I have been facing this issue since yesterday, but basically at some point the system becomes insanely slow, and the restart and shutdown options disappear from the menu, tty3-7 dont work, it freezes at the shutdown -now command(at which point I just manually cut the power(bad Idea I know)),
but today I stuck around as my system got insanely borked, eventually freezing up and giving me the screen above. the problem shows up after I wake it up from suspend but not always:

Bluesky isn’t the ‘new Twitter,’ but its resemblance to the old one is drawing millions of new users
What would you say at Twitter’s funeral?That’s the question my collaborators and I asked over 1,000 people on social media as part of a broader research project on Twitter migration. Responses ranged from the profane to the poetic, but one common theme was that despite its significant flaws, Twitter at its best was truly great … until it wasn’t.

“Science?” Yeah no.
I see these posts about how amazing things are at BlueSky literally every single day here. I got sick of it a long time ago but have mostly kept quiet because promoting alternatives to Twitter is a good thing.
However, I’m starting to think that taking up Lemmy airtime to promote another private, for-profit enterprise brought to you by the same guy who sold Twitter to an evil billionaire is perhaps not an approach worthy of extraordinary support.
Perhaps it would be better to link directly to the more scientific sources linked in the article:
scribe.rip/cuinfoscience/an-ex…
The author of the article contributed to or co-authored those as well. The article is very general writeup, but there is real science here.

in reply to iso • • •I skimmed the first few pages. And it seems it's just concerned with the content? You can store your notes (posts, file uploads, ...) on arbitrary instances and move them around. But you still need a fixed instance that hosts your actor identity (your account) which then tells where to go to fetch a post. And that one can't change. So your account and username would still be tied to a fixed domain handle. And you can't move it. And even for the content, it seems like you'd need that fixed instance to do the 302 forward, so it needs to be contacted to resolve each location.
Edit: But you might be right. I don't grasp the full concept. Maybe it enables us to configure a webserver on our own domain to forward a user handle to some external server. Meaning we don't have to install a server ourselves. And the servers would then be interchangable (if this translates to fetching everything). You'd still be tied to your domain name. But not to a service anymore. That'd be great.

let's say lemmy implemented it. ok. what now? my current account is still under lemmy.blahaj.zone. i still can't move to some other instance without changing my account's id and breaking all the existing object ids. i can move my posts between instances (or perhaps connect multiple instance software to the same actor, though a generic C2S server can in theory accomplish something of that sort without needing to alter other instances communicating with mine) but my identity is not any more portable than without it.
actor relative ids requires everyone to anticipate being portable and set their account up with it from the very start. maybe the existing account migrations can be used to one-time migrate a non-portable account to a portable one, but you're still required to host your own account on your own "identity instance" yourself, and you are more or less stuck on th

codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src… is imo better at accomplishing the goal, and unlike relative URLs it has real existing implementations proving it's viable in the first place. but it has it's own downsides as well (severly limiting domain block effectiveness for authorized fetch enabled instances, no key rotation afaict, ...)
as a side note, don't get too hyped up by feps. they have no power over anything and an existence of one does not mean anything for the future of the protocol. implementations are still the only ones making the final call on how the protocol actually functions (because real governance and "spec compliance" is anywhere between doesn't exist and being actively hijacked by threads via swf), and the only implementation that actually matters in terms of protocol improvements is mastodon.
