I know about https://programming.dev and https://mtgzone.com I wish there were one about gaming and another about fanfiction
Edward Snowden, a former National Security Agency contractor and government whistleblower, has been credited with the quote “Arguing that you don’t care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say”. Snowden has argued that privacy is a fundamental right and that without it, individuals cannot have anything for themselves. The “nothing to hide” argument has been used to defend the collection and use of government data beyond surveillance and disclosure, but critics argue that it is inherently paradoxical and that what is hidden is not necessarily relevant. Snowden has also stated that the burden of justification falls on those seeking to infringe upon human rights, and that nobody needs to justify why they “need” a right.
This has already been mentioned a few times. Just find the relevant issue on GitHub and give it an upvote.
I don’t know there is a lemmy-stats-crawler utility that does it automatically and produces a json file. So all I do is parse that json file to get the numbers.
Depending on which instances are blocked you will see different content in ones or others. Which is why I choose instance based on the minimum number of blocked users based on the results of this script.
Maybe get your country to have a higher democracy index than china before criticizing them?

I knew I recognized him from somewhere. He was the developer of lib.reviews. https://github.com/eloquence
The one I like most is YouTube, where it shows everything from the last few days and then only the most popular content from the last few weeks, months, and even years. I would like something similar, where the further I browse, the more votes a post must have to show up in the feed.
why don’t you post this in a us community. I don’t give a shit about this.
Humans are more influenced by emotions than logic, which means that critical thinking alone may not convince them. Only those who are receptive to logical reasoning can be persuaded.
Imagus is a browser extension for Firefox that allows users to enlarge images and display images/videos from links with a simple mouse-over. It is similar to the Hover Zoom extension, which is a popular tool for browsing memes and gifs on desktop. However, Hover Zoom has been flagged as spyware, so users may want to consider using Imagus instead. Imagus works with a wider range of links than Hover Zoom, including those from imgur. The extension also has customizable settings, including an expandable set of rules for getting larger images, media, or other content.
I’ve saved this, but it would be nice to see the syntax somewhere in the search engine
A function decorator: You can create a decorator that handles the connection and cursor creation and passes the cursor to the decorated function.
import sqlite3
from functools import wraps
DB_FILE = "your_database_file.db"
def with_cursor(func):
@wraps(func)
def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
conn = sqlite3.connect(DB_FILE)
cursor = conn.cursor()
result = func(cursor, *args, **kwargs)
conn.commit()
cursor.close()
conn.close()
return result
return wrapper
@with_cursor
def insert_post_to_db(cursor: sqlite3.Cursor, issue: Issue, lemmy_post_id: int) -> None:
cursor.execute(
"INSERT INTO posts (issue_url, lemmy_post_id, issue_title, issue_body) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)",
(issue.url, lemmy_post_id, issue.title, issue.formatted_body),
)
A context manager: Create a context manager that handles the connection and cursor creation, as well as closing the connection when done. This way, you can use the with
statement to manage the connection and cursor in your functions.
import sqlite3
DB_FILE = "your_database_file.db"
class DatabaseConnection:
def __enter__(self):
self.conn = sqlite3.connect(DB_FILE)
self.cursor = self.conn.cursor()
return self.cursor
def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb):
self.conn.commit()
self.cursor.close()
self.conn.close()
def insert_post_to_db(issue: Issue, lemmy_post_id: int) -> None:
with DatabaseConnection() as cursor:
cursor.execute(
"INSERT INTO posts (issue_url, lemmy_post_id, issue_title, issue_body) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)",
(issue.url, lemmy_post_id, issue.title, issue.formatted_body),
)
This is so cool. It’s exactly what I had in mind when thinking of a modern bash alternative.

I really like to see communities like lemmy.film, mtgzone.com, and programming.dev and wish there was an instance about literature.
