Bootstrap Themes with Ansible Install in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

According to the docs, there should be a lemmy-ui folder that was created by the Ansible install. Within that folder, the app is set up to search for an extra_themes folder by default.

For native installation (without Docker), themes are loaded by lemmy-ui from ./extra_themes folder. A different path can be specified with LEMMY_UI_EXTRA_THEMES_FOLDER environment variable.

Digging into the docker-compose.yml file used by the Ansible playbook, it looks like this is where extra themes directory is mapped into the lemmy-ui service.

Star Citizen costs exceed Cyberpunk 2077, GTA 5, and RDR2 combined in c/[email protected]

I think my favorite use of Star Citizen has been from folks like PolarityDnb who use it to create backdrops for ambient electronica compositions.

No way, really?! Well bravo, your abstract word picture conjured up just the right game :D

I'm using Gitea and it's been wonderful.

  • I run it as a Windows service - I know I know, I should containerize it 😄
  • Using SQLite as the DB; I've always been a fan of filesystem DBs
  • Not exposed outside my LAN since I just Parsec home when abroad

Like a fission reaction between cope, capitalism and hypetrain grease. Compels me though 🤔

Absolutely no way Star Citizen isn't a massive scam. I mean, people can be incompetent, but

over $580 million

...seems like it has to be some kind of upper limit of incompetence?

Twitter Sued for $250 Million by Music Publishers asserting Copyright Infringement in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Does this basically come down to "Twitter doesn't want to spend the compute to fingerprint media uploads?"

I know that's been a massive cost sink for YouTube with their Content ID technology, and I don't imagine Elbow is in a hurry to burn even more money at the moment.

How to Relive the Old Internet With Neocities (lifehacker.com)

Have always had a huge soft spot for Neocities, happy to see it getting some time in the news.

I made this dumb game years ago and it somehow is just still there, being a weird HTML game on Neocities.
