lemmy-meter.info just checks the landing page and the API responses for a community, post and comment, and just logs them over time. These are all things, irrc, Piefed's API supports so I don't know why the API needs to be expanded to log server stability? What does Mlem do to show instance stability?

Thank you for the explanation. Though I haven’t learned enough Swift to be working on the app’s code myself, I mostly just do testing after reading the commits and issues.

@sjmarf@sh.itjust.works & @ericbandrews@lemmy.ml may be able to explain more in detail.

The Mlem details tab shows this page:

I would also really like to request piefed.world update their //ing version plz
in reply to finitebanjo

I believe @mrkaplan@piefed.world is working on it. They just completed the upgrade to 1.2 within the past week and are working on the 1.3 upgrade process. They customize the code to some degree and run a FHF branch of PieFed, so it takes a bit of time for them to finish that process and test it.

Althia Raj: Mark Carney is quietly giving sweeping new powers to his ministers


"Hidden in the federal government’s 634-page omnibus bill C-15, the Budget Implementation Act, is a measure that has so far escaped scrutiny. Under the pretext of regulatory efficiency, Prime Minister Mark Carney plans to grant cabinet ministers the power to exempt any individual or company from any federal law on the books — except for the Criminal Code — for up to six years."
in reply to patatas

How long before a new government amends it again to strike the Criminal Code exception?

These people think we won't do anything about their bullshit, and they can't wait to call us all Convites if we show up in Ottawa to protest.

I think it's time for a general strike, regardless of whether or not they back down. This won't stop until we show them where it leads.

Video shows masked Border Patrol agent chasing woman back to her Louisiana home


Jacelynn Guzman said she is a U.S.-born citizen. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that it "determined the individual in question was not the target."

Masked immigration authorities were recorded on video this week following a woman back to her Louisiana home during what the Department of Homeland Security is calling a “targeted immigration enforcement operation.”

Jacelynn Guzman, 23, was walking home Thursday from a corner store in Marrero, a New Orleans suburb, when a silver, unmarked SUV pulled up next to her and two masked agents exited, she said.

“I was walking and the first car pulled up on the side of me and I thought it was an Uber,” she said. “They said, ‘Wait don’t run, Ma’am.’ That’s all I heard before I blasted off,” Guzman told NBC News on Saturday.

Guzman said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.

Geohot: Bikeshedding, or why I want to build a laptop


Tldr: he wants a non-upgradeable laptop that is maxed out from day one. I'd want a bit more upgrade path than he does, but he has some interesting thoughts.

reshared this

in reply to solrize

Sounds absolutely stupid... and yet my (gaming) desktop (model CORSAIR ONE i180) remains untouched after nearly 6 years. I still play indies to AAA to VR with it. I still work with it, specifically VR prototyping, so dev.

If I were to give it away or use as a self-hosted server with GPU used on e.g Immich or video transcoding it would still do pretty well.

So...IMHO it's not a bad take but damn I remembered I paid a LOT of money back then. As other pointed out if you can afford it, sure. If you are not a professional then probably not.



Honduras Plunges Into Post-Election Turmoil as Electoral Official Alleges “Monumental Fraud”


José Luis Granados Ceja
Dec 06, 2025

Days removed from Sunday’s presidential vote, and still without a clear winner, Honduras’s post-election crisis became more contentious after a member of the country’s electoral authority denounced “monumental electoral fraud” on Thursday evening.

Marlon Ochoa, a representative for the Libre Party on the three-member National Electoral Council (CNE), alleged coordinated and deliberate electoral fraud carried out by the other council members, Cossette Alejandra López-Osorio of the National Party and Ana Paola Hall of the Liberal Party.

in reply to Peter Link

For context:

Libre is a third party that was formed in 2011. They're a coalition of leftist groups, and are democratic socialists.

In 2012 and 2013, at least 18 of their pre-candidates, candidates and staff were murdered.

In 2013, they lost the almost certainly fraudulent presidential election to the right-wing National Party candidate - Juan Orlando Hernández Alvarado, the narcotics trafficker who was just pardoned by Trump.



Windhawk (an open Source customization marketplace for Windows) released v1.7


I used this back when I was on Windows in order to make some much needed tweaks to the windows UI. You can see a list of mods here: windhawk.net/mods

Looks like they added some nice UI and stability improvements with this update. See the linked changelog for full details

in reply to Otter Raft

In Windows 11 it is mandatory to get rid of the terrible Fisher Price design GUI. Not so needed in Windows 10, where are still enough options to customize it, most of it eliminated in Windows 11.





RSF strike on Kordofan kindergarten kills dozens, mostly children


A drone strike by Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) hit a kindergarten in South Kordofan, killing 50 people, including 33 children, the Sudan Doctors Network (SDN) said late on Friday.

The group said the RSF and its ally, Abdelaziz al-Hilu’s faction of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement - North (SPLM-N), on Thursday carried out “deliberate suicide-drone attacks" on the kindergarten and several civilian facilities in Kalogi town.

The SDN, a group that has been supporting civilians throughout the course of Sudan's war, said paramedics responding to the scene came under “a second, unexpected attack”.



Canada has legal duty to provide safe water, housing to remote First Nations, federal judge rules


A federal judge has sided with two First Nations in Manitoba and one in Ontario that sued the Canadian government over its duty to provide them with safe housing and clean drinking water, in separate rulings delivered Friday.

The federal government has had a duty to ensure Shamattawa First Nation, and other First Nations who opt into the northern Manitoba First Nation's class-action, were provided access to drinking water safe for human use over the claim period, Justice Paul Favel said in a decision.

Shamattawa launched the class-action, which was certified in 2023, on behalf of all First Nations members countrywide whose communities were subject to a drinking water advisory in effect on or after June 20, 2020.

in reply to HellsBelle

The reasoning and the article has a link to the judgement if people want the super long legal version of it.

Favel said in both decisions the Canadian government made First Nations dependent by forcing them to relocate to reserves, and that the country has historically "exerted direct control over every facet of First Nations life through legislation, regulations, policies, and practices," including control over financing for water infrastructure and housing.


Also the personal opinion part you'd think Pierre and the Conservatives would applaud this given the stance on "government tyranny".

in reply to HellsBelle

To all of it's citizens. But to our most vulnerable first, which includes all of the hinterland. Food, water and shelter should be a basic human right for all citizens under the charter.


in reply to rnercle

really hope you mean the old syncthing, not syncthing fork
in reply to redjard

No, the maintainer of syncthing fork deleted their account and the repos out of the blue. There's a lengthy forum post about it here.
in reply to prism

Oh, I didn't notice. fdroid just switched it over I suppose. I even noticed the weird release notes and checked the repo but just accepted I had misremembered the repo name and maintainer name.
in reply to redjard

github.com/researchxxl/syncthi…

There's a fork of the fork. Been using this one for a couple of months.

in reply to youmaynotknow

I strongly advise against using anything from researchxxl. The conditions under which the fork changed hands are unclear, continued development has been poor, and researchxxl's behaviour has been consistently uninspiring and unhelpful. See issue 16 if you don't believe me. In the meantime, I've uninstalled Syncthing-Fork and will wait until nel0x's version is in F-Droid.
in reply to vim_b

I wasn't following this too closely, but read that the other day.

What struck me was the new owner not having an account on the forum. :/

in reply to vim_b

I have to confess that I was not aware of this, thank you so much for letting me (us) know. It's interesting, and shows why taking the time to research software as well as the devs in charge is so important. I did not see any red flags other than the way the handover has been handled though.

I get it, and I am well aware you're correct about the risks, but the infrastructure I'm running doesn't really allow me to go without it at the moment. I did stop the updates in my Obtainium entirely.

The good news is that this just came up: github.com/nel0x/syncthing-and…

So, it's looking bright right now.

in reply to youmaynotknow

researchxxl's account is 3 weeks old so I have doubts if you have been using their app for months.
in reply to redjard

As others commented Obtanium just swapped it over too. Everyone's in the same boat, or rather on the same rug - without the rug.
in reply to JetpackJackson

Ultimately that is your choice. I personally will not use researchxxl's version considering they appeared out of nowhere and there was 0 communication about the transition. For now I will continue to use Catfriend's version and perhaps switch to nel0x's in the future.
in reply to prism

I noticed nel0x started releases on their Github.

Currently, I'm undecided about waiting for a F-Droid repo or just install via apk from Github and get update notices through rss.

in reply to prism

I thought researchxxl was the catfriend version, just transferred to them

in reply to ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆

I don’t know man. This crap gives such ammunition to the “both sides are corrupt” argument.

Do we really believe things in Ukraine would be better or even the same under Putin? What are we even talking about here?

in reply to MyMindIsLikeAnOcean

I mean we can obviously see that things are far better in Crimea than anywhere in Ukraine right now. This isn't even debatable. Comparing Russia to the absurd levels of corruption in Ukraine is not a serious argument to make.
in reply to ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆

Russia has been extremely corrupt for decades. Whatever weird made up world you are living in, come on back to reality. Even if Ukraine was the most corrupt country ever, bombing the shit out of the citizens is not the way you help. That's just murder. Even if things are somehow better in Crimea, you're comparing to a country being bombed by a larger country with more weapons and fighters. Crimea should not have been stolen in the first place. Help your neighbors, don't hypocritically murder their people.

don't like this

in reply to phar

Russia is clearly nowhere near as corrupt as Ukraine given that Russia is actually able to run a functioning economy and a military. In fact, there's strong evidence to suggest that NATO is far more corrupt than Russia is given that Russia is single handedly outproducing all of the west militarily right now. Meanwhile, before yapping about Crimea, you might want to go read a history book for once in your life.
in reply to ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆

I know the history, that doesnt excuse invading them at this point. Neither is what one.corrupt country sees as corrupt in another. Your arguments hold no weight. Nothing you said justifies murdering people in a neighboring country.

don't like this

in reply to phar

in reply to davel

That is not even the end of it.

I'd like to add on that there is literal footage of Ukrainian troops firing into crowds of civilians in Mariupol and Krasnoarmeysk back in 2014, both after Maidan Coup.

There is also footage of Ukrainian Nazis carrying out a pogrom against the Romani in 2018.

in reply to davel

Sorry can you point out the exact points in those that justify the murdering a bombing of people in a foreign nation? 2014 especially was a pretty messed up time, by I'm not sure I follow you as to what justification for murdering and bombing them is. Especially with new leadership. Please explain the murdering a bombing.

don't like this

in reply to phar

in reply to davel

So Russia being as large and Powerful as they supposedly are can't perform diplomacy and has to murder and bomb people? I'm still not hearing any reason that Russia should be murdering people.
in reply to phar

Russia has been attempting to perform diplomacy with the west since before 2014. That's what Minsk agreements, which the west now admitted were meant to buy time to arm their regime in Ukraine, were supposed to be all about. Funny how you conveniently forgot about that.
in reply to phar

Evidently, you're fine with a western backed regime murdering its own people though.
in reply to phar

Even if Ukraine was the most corrupt country ever, bombing the shit out of the citizens is not the way you help


I don't know, they sure tried it in the eastern part of the country for 10 years

in reply to ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆

Can we tho?

You’re so far off reality I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic.

in reply to MyMindIsLikeAnOcean

The reality is that people in Crimea aren't being grabbed off the streets and gang pressed into fighting.
