‘Far-reaching consequences’ for Kentucky bourbon after LCBO strips U.S. spirits off shelves in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 1 points 5 days ago

“That niche, that space in bourbon is a pretty specialized product. They can try and fill it but they can’t do it in any legitimate way and call it bourbon, it would be illegal,” Bricker said.

Uhh. Tell that to Cheddar, Moz, Champagne.. And a million other protected trademarks that the US has just used.

Canada can put fermented maple syrup in a bucket and call it bourbon if they want to.

Yes, Indian food is incredible, we are in agreement there. The best biscuits, in our opinion, are Dark Chocolate Digestives (blue package), dunked in breakfast tea just long enough to soften the chocolate. I prefer 3 bites. She prefers to take the whole thing and sho.. Well, you get it.

But does the drop test take into account an external hammer when thrown at high velocity in a shoe?

If so, they really swung for the edge cases on that one. Their manager would have been upset they wasted productive hours on that until this happened.

My partner is British and we are in the US, so we end up hunting for stuff like this all the time. Luckily a market up the road happens to be owned by a Brit, so we can at least get tea biscuits there.

I forgot to set my printer to the internal only IP range and it updated when I turned it on. Hopefully mine is OK, or I can find old firmware.

And @beanstalk@lemm.ee, welcome. Others have recommended some useful communities, but as you join the Fediverse, which is distributed across many servers, a useful way to find new communities you like is: https://lemmyverse.net/communities

There are also an absolute ton of free and open source app choices. I personally prefer Thunder for the customizable options, but everyone has their preferences.

Enjoy exploring!

This would be hard to quantify. A year of work one year ago would take significantly less time now since the knowledge exists.

ARM and RISC are not equal. The fastest current RISC CPU is an absolute potato. Then you've got ARM-based chips way faster than a Pi. Then there's silicone like the M4. It's a big uphill for RISC, which is why this, and the investments from the Chinese, are good but longer-term plays.

400 and 499 errors in NGINX logs (lemmy.nowsci.com)
 

Hi all,

How would I go about identifying why all these 400 (and some 499) errors are popping up in my server's logs?

I don't see a way to get Lemmy server to spit out any helpful info. I've tried setting RUST_LOG=verbose in the env, but no luck, still no log output.

Element Starter: open source meets on-premise collaboration (element.io)

After trying to understand if Synapse was still the preferred community method for Matrix after the post on Element X/ESS, I thought I'd share this.

Element Starter is a game-changer, offering a free (as in beer) self-hosted version of Element Server Suite. It is a lightweight version of the officially supported Kubernetes-based components found in our paid packages (Business, Enterprise and Sovereign) - the very same stack used to power the biggest Matrix homeservers in the world; built by the team who created Matrix.

Element Starter is designed to allow anyone in the world (who doesn’t need to start with our powerful paid-for enterprise features) to adopt Element Server Suite for free. This option gives them all the real-time communication functionality they expect from a leading messaging and collaboration app with the added benefit of self-hosting to ensure data ownership and control, while building on a wrought-iron foundation which is futureproofed for commercial support and features on demand.

Really surprised I can't located migration methods anywhere, though. And that all the Element X app repos are still labeled pre-release but the blog says they are production ready.

Edit: This does require sign in and terms of use agreements, so I'll be sticking to my Synapse docker container for now.

Google Maps search history without "Web & App Activity"? (lemmy.nowsci.com)
 

Q: Is it still possible to have "Web & App Activity" turned off, but also have history of previously searched places in Google Maps?

This was possible until recently (Pixel 8), and came back this week for a few days, but now my history is empty again with a button trying to get me to turn on privacy cancer.

(Yes I use OSMAnd and Organic Maps when I can already.)
