Avatar is a lemming in bed because this account wasn’t intended to be used except for creating communities… and then my instance announced it was closing.
I don’t think automatic crossposting is a good idea. However some way to “boost” Mastodon posts onto Lemmy would be good. Mbin has a way of boosting but can’t assign a magazine. Something like that may work though. Mastodon can already boost Lemmy posts.
There are a lot of people I follow who moved to Mastodon, that now appear to have moved to Bluesky (I’m seeing posts on there from people I know used to post on Mastodon).
I’m not sure why. If I move over it’ll be because everybody else is there. At the moment I’m not using it much.
Not sure about DOS, but Windows 10 will happily run 16-bit Windows software. You have to use the 32-bit version of Windows though - the 64-bit version dropped support.
I was going to put Bedfordshire in brackets next to that, but I forgot. I knew it could cause confusion!
I think the rest of my communities haven’t seen activity lately, so I’ll have to post in them first!
There’s also some sort of soft blocking option, which largely hides the instance AIUI but still gives the ability to follow users. This seems like a better option rather than completely defederating.
If Meta want to scrape your data they can do that anyway. All defederation does is stops you looking at their stuff (which, as you say, can be blocked at the user level anyway)
No, it’s a cross platform standard. You can even run a server on Linux interfacing with SANE to convert older scanners.
I looked up the non-Apple name and it’s eSCL. That’s a lot easier to search for.
Yes, you can now use AirScan (also called something else I don’t recall currently) for “driverless” scanning.
I don’t know. Mastodon already supports audio posts, how does that federate? Why can’t Threads do the same thing?
I bow to your superior knowledge. It definitely doesn’t wear out SD cards as quickly though, but that might be due to other factors not wear levelling.
What I missed mentioning is it does wear-levelling so as its name suggests it is “flash friendly” and stops SD cards wearing out so quickly.
I use f2fs on my Raspberry Pis, it’s designed for flash storage and appears to have much better performance than ext4 on the same device. I’m not sure whether it’s suitable for SSDs, or just SD cards and USB (these devices are optimised for FAT and f2fs utilises that optimisation). When I tried to use f2fs on a proper laptop it was too early and the distro didn’t support booting from it. I assume that has changed now.
As for the others, I usually stick with ext4 as I’ve never seen a compelling reason not to.

Their logos are very similar. How many different ways can you stylise an “X” though?
Quite possibly, but even on a laptop touchpad it seems wrong.
It makes no sense to me. A lot of Windows drivers seem to default to it now, so scrolling down on the wheel scrolls up on the screen. I always change it back to the old method, as this way is backwards to be.
“Oh, perhaps we could assign it to the actual Indian Ocean, as that’s quite a persuasive 💰 argument 💰.”
“… Or perhaps NASA would like to administer it on behalf of the aliens on Io until we make contact…”
