A good decision.

Close the windows, curtains and shades during the day, at around 8-9AM. When it’s very warm outside, open windows are your enemy.

Open windows, curtains and shades during the night when temperature is lowering.

Who would be so pissed at lemmy.world to DDoS them?

They might want to consider using Cloudflare or a similar solution if they don’t already.

Isn’t FOSS Stallman’s definition? Free open source as opposed to just open source

The way I do it is holding the bottom of the key under the soft part of the lower jaw while holding the mouth open as a resonance chamber.

I suppose you’ve never seen snow then? Definitely try if you get some chance. I wish it snowed more often where I live.

I have no idea what the coolest temp has been for me, but probably around -10C?

I’d say people worrying about Karma.

Try celeste and super meat boy if you want a skillful platformer with low penalty.

Actually I think it needs a lot of work regarding wording, because it doesn’t really read as too professional. But I plan on keeping the core concept. My assumption here is that the GDPR is fine with people sending emails with details over to servers that the email provider has no control over, so the same should apply to the fediverse.

Regarding GDPR, one thing I’ve done as an instance admin is making clear in our privacy policies that lemmy allows you to send and receive social content and interactions across the internet in a way that’s similar to email.

This is supposed to be just a fun exercise in creative writing xD

How everyone who knew how to had their own personal homepage.

I’d be more inclined to reach out to Louis Rossmann, especially since he’s said he won’t post on reddit anymore. Maybe we can even find a home on lemmy for his right to repair campaign.

You don’t have your post deleted for forgetting a minor rule and there’s a chance that your post will be seen instead of hidden under countless new posts.

When you buy a domain, you buy the right to (among other things) edit the address book for that domain, also known as DNS zones.

Once you buy the domain, for example, you can tell your domain provider “I want example.com to point to the IP address 1.2.3.4”.

Most importantly the domain provider has been given the rights to sell these domains by ICANN who manages what is known as the “root DNS servers”.

When a computer has no idea who to contact to resolve a domain it contacts the root DNS servers first and these tell them to check the entries of the domain provider. It all trickles down from there. If the domain provider wasn’t approved by ICANN then their root DNS servers would never point to them.

In reality there’s more organizations involved including: resellers, registrars and registries. But they all follow the same principle and create a chain of linked address books (DNS zones) that flow from the root DNS servers.

There is not stopping you from setting up your own domain system. You can get all the domains you want for free, but no other computer would be able to access them because by default the convention is to trust only the ICANN DNS servers.

If you use windows, Google “hosts file”. In that file you can enter any domain you want and an associated IP address and your computer will comply with it. You could even have google.com point to your own homepage, but of course that would only be your computer.

By the way, if you hear about DNS servers like google’s 8.8.8.8 or cloudflare’s 1.1.1.1, these are not the root DNS servers. These are called “resolvers” and they are the ones that talk to the root DNS zones and cache their response so that it can be resolved faster instead of having to go down the whole chain every time.
