ahh that’s unfortunate. thanks anyway!
i do have a question, sure
for the avoidance of doubt, you are saying that a matrix bridge can copy all previous messages over from a discord server, to a matrix server, even the messages made before the creation of the bridge? i.e, transfer the entire conversation log over to the matrix server, going back all the way to the first message in a channel?
actually, phrasing this another way, i just caught myself in the XY problem. what i need really, is a copy of a given discord server’s content, onto a fresh matrix server. bridge or no bridge. is there any way to (broadly) copy and paste the content of a discord channel over to a matrix server, one time only. i know how to extract the discord content using the discord chat log tool, tokens etc. so, say i have one of those html files with the full chatlog and contents - how do i put that into a matrix server, and have it roughly readable? (if that’s possible)
thank you for your patience, i have tried search engines for months with no clear answers
this might be a good place for me to reach out into the void
i’m interested in migrating two of my servers over to a matrix server, but i also want to back-copy all the old messages to the matrix client.
does a matrix bridge do all this copying? i.e, if i was to setup a discord-matrix bridge, allow messages to sync, and then disconnect the bridge, does the matrix server then have a copy of all the old messages? it doesn’t have to match to the old users or anything, i’m just interested in having the content migrate over.
this is currently the biggest hurdle for me, because one of my servers is a private family discord, and i really don’t want to have to explain to my mum that “all the content of the last 4 years is gone” 😅
california is the largest “sub-national” economy in the world. if california was a country, it would have the fifth largest economy. bigger than the uk, or bigger than india.
if i had to guess, the answer is “success breeds jealousy”
thank you so much for this 🙂 i shall make sure to have soda with food from now on. and also, i can give fanta zero and coke cherry zero a go again (with full stomach) and see what happens lol. appreciate the work 💪
ah okay, i’m way out of my depth then. thanks for the advice
my specific problems are with fanta zero and coke cherry zero. if not the aspartame, then is there a possible cause that isn’t confirmation bias, or caffeine? i don’t have problems with other drinks with caffeine, and i should stress that i drink 2L of water a day regardless of whether i have a can of soda (in addition). i.e, it’s not headaches from dehydration either.
i’m willing to accept the possibility that i am an idiot and it’s just confirmation bias, but if anyone knows any other possible causes, i’d be happy to learn 🙂
another question i have regarding point #2, how much sugar is too much to cause the effects you mention (i.e in one can?). for context, i live in the UK, and most cans of soda are restricted to 16.5g of sugar for the whole can, because of a sugar tax. is 16.5g in one go enough to cause liver damage?
thank you for reading
the issue put bluntly, is that in federation, your data cannot be 100% safe. even if this instance is secure and perfectly private, if this instance is then federated, that federated data can then be copied and have anything done with it, or to it.
or, to phrase it in a way that opened my eyes to this, quoting from someone else a month ago, “what makes you think you’re in control of your data on any instance?”
oh that’s why some soda drinks give me headache 😐 i just realised all the ones that used to make my head hurt, were all zero/diet versions. i switched back to full sugar ones a while back, now i see why i did.
i guess it’s a choice between teeth rot or cancer. i’ll take the teeth rot lol
wow you guys are getting rinsed over there!
for a UK perspective, we have a cinema chain over here called Everyman, it’s cinemas but every seat is a sofa/couch! and you can order food to the seats. unless it’s a peak screening, you usually get a whole couch to yourself. matinée shows are roughly ~$17 for adult, ~$11 for child. what’s pictured in the OP is no doubt one of those pull-down chairs with the itchy carpet material too. ouch!
come on over, we have greggs, we can eat that to pass the downtime if it happens
sure, so 196 refers to a sub called r/196, in reference to r/195, which had one rule only: if you visit, you must post something before you leave.
it was called r/196 after it’s predecessor got a bit… spicy. 195 was a sub that skewed slightly left of center, but had a hard time keeping 195 clear of hate speech etc etc, and so they shut it down. r/196 was made, which skews further left as a result of this. since 195 was a general posting sub, some of the audience had a tough time accepting every 2nd meme post with a side of politics, some ended up getting banned quickly, and in reaction they made subs like r/197
r/195 itself was called r/195 because it was the house number of creator of the sub at that time.
It was our address. All the mods lived together in a 5 bedroom condo during college. 195 was our house number. One of the roommates sucks, so he wasn’t invited, and one roommate has since deleted his reddit account. But originally this was a subreddit for us to share memes and funny stuff during classes and work. It’s blown up in a big way in the 8 years since we created it.
(i cannot fetch sources because most of reddit is blacked out)
that’s about it, if anyone else knows better, correct me if i’m wrong :)
it would be a bit like making multiple email accounts with multiple email providers. for example, if you were to signup “eskimofry@outlook.com” and also sign up “eskimofry@gmail.com”, all you’ve done is made 2 accounts called “eskimofry” at the two different providers.
it works the same in fediverse. your account is @eskimofry@lemmy.world, but you could just as easily sign up @eskimofry@lemmy.ml, or @eskimofry@feddit.de, or @eskimofry@lemmy.one, all you would be doing is making more accounts.
these accounts don’t conflict with each other in the exact same way that “eskimofry@outlook.com” and “eskimofry@gmail.com” don’t conflict either. if these 2 emails are owned by different people, then it is the user’s job to know which is the intended recipient.
is this like where the doctors and nurses have to be of the religion, or does the hospital get to decide who gets treated using their own rules? or something else? can someone explain this?
either way, what the fuck?
