Btw, @[email protected], old.infosec.pub has been inaccessible (502 Bad Gateway) for a while (sorry for not reporting it earlier - I have a lot of things going on right now). I don't know if it's intentionally been taken offline, or if it's merely a little bug that needs fixing?

What the Flipper! I love it. :D

This looks so good!
I'm happy about the dedicated animations settings page. It would be great, however, if we could adjust the animation speed of each one individually, though.

The thing is, it's not all about horsepower. You gotta think about horse amour too.

?

Just to avoid catching ire for adding nuance, I want to preface everything by stating that the nazi regime was obviously a criminal scourge upon humanity, and it's perpetrators entirely irredeemable. If the nazi regime was ever falsely accused of anything, it will always just be irrelevant little details, in the face of the sheer bulk of provable horrors committed by them, their collaborators, and the weight is on the shoulders of everyone within their borders, who was of legal age and sound mind, and who didn't do anything to resist.
With that out of the way, the descendants of the Allies should stop swallowing the propaganda of their forefathers raw, and instead try to take an honest, critical look on this part of their past.
The fact of the matter is, the Nürnberg trials were a farce, more a show trial and a kangaroo court, of Victor's parading around the defeated, conducted on a legal basis that didn't exist, with many punishments (executions) being violations of the inalienable human rights that were soon after proclaimed by the victors, as an encodification of the core values that they claimed to espouse.
The trials were a mockery. Surely, it would have been possible to prosecute and punish anyone deserving of it, by the laws of the pre-1933 Weimar Republic, which, contrary to popular belief today, was not abolished in a legal manner in the first place, and so would still have jurisdiction.
Anyway, the Nürnberg trials are an awful ideal to shoot for - especially when we today finally (and fairly recently) have managed to establish a proper International Criminal Court, with authority and legal basis to dispense real justice against the perpetrators of crimes against humanity. Recognise that court, and insist on it carrying out justice. When you ignore thst court in discourse, and choose to hold up an 80 year old mock trail as the standard of justice, that just makes it all the easier for any future victor to quickly carry out their own kangaroo courts, executing based on what's politically convenient, while slowing the path towards a legal world order.

Me too! So much so that I have sworn to name my first secretary Kate.

So you had an egg in these trying times, did you?

Lol

Fantastic! Good show, Jerry! :)
I love the familiar, efficient interface; the lighter resource use; and it even turn browsing Lemmy through Lynx into a pleasant experience.
I see most instances link their alternative frontends on the their sidebar, so that people know they're available. You could consider the same.
EDIT: I see you also just added modbot. Great to see good tools like that added! I'm sure /c/crypto is going to be off to a great (re)start, now.

Adding this as a comment, instead of soap boxing my own opinion from the post body:
I think we should sign it. Personally, I would appreciate Infosec.Pub defederating form any Fediverse instance run by, or affiliated with companies/corporations that have a stake in the data business or AI development.
mlmym for Infosec.Pub - a classic frontend with no JavaScript
Hey @[email protected] and everyone else,
Would it be possible to have mlmym installed for Infosec.Pub?
It's a front-end that perfectly replicates the classic, old.reddit.com interface.
Besides the familiarity being nice for many, as well as it being more compact than even the compact-style themes we currently have available, I think the most important feature is that, unlike most other offerings, including the default that we're using, mlmym works perfectly without javascript enabled.
A bunch of other instances already have it installed. If you want to try it out, SDF is one such instance.
I don't know how big of a hassle it is to install, but I know I would appreciate it a lot!
Will we sign the anti-Meta "Fedi-Pact"?
The pact is a declaration of intent to block any Meta-governed instances that try to federate. There are some useful stats here about which, and how many instances have already committed to the pact. All types of Fediverse instances have signed, including some Lemmy instances, though it seems to be especially Mastodon instances that have signed it.
Is this something you have an opinion on, or already made a decision about, @[email protected]? Is it something we should discuss as a community?

Yup, it's much appreciated!

Awesome, thanks jerry!
Welcome to the party @[email protected] - glad you want to take care of [email protected]! I hope you'll be able to convince a decent chunk of your community to come with. :)
Perhaps look into finding a decent cross-post tool, and start cross-posting any posts made on /r/crypto to /c/crypto. Well, I suppose you should give OP a short amount of time to also post here, in case they already have an account, but otherwise, you should do it. No one will migrate, or start being active here, if there isn't already some activity.

The problem here is that those are filters, and the newcomer will usually still be faced with several options, which will still make them scratch their head.
A wizard is a good idea, with simple questions, rather than filter buttons.
But it needs to end up telling you "here you go, this is the one you want!", giving you just a single instance. Doesn't matter that multiple will probably match the answers given - then just pick one at random. Chances are, they will be equally happy on either, and if not, well, it isn't very hard to switch to a new instance later on, when they have become regular Lemmists.

I think you would be a most perfect fit here. I think a lot of people on this instance would be excited to have a vibrant crypto community here.
The crypto community we have here isn't so much "lower quality" as it is just dead. There's been just three posts there in the last year. I was going to suggest you ask the owner of it if you could take over, but it looks like they haven't been active for two years.
I think you should just ask @[email protected] or @[email protected] if you can take over. There's no reason to have two crypto communities, if one of them is dead; you get to keep your old identity of being called "crypto", instead of "cryptography", or something else; and there are presumably a lot of the subscribers of /c/crypto that would very much like to have an active crypto community show up in their feed.
Welcome to Lemmy, and to Infosec.pub - I hope to be able to say the same to your community!

I don't think there's anything democratic about publicly singling out some users as pariahs. If a user is disruptive, just get rid of them. If they're not, leave them be. If the jury's still out on this one, well, don't bias the jury against them.

I don't think so, but I wouldn't be surprised if, as the old world order continues to change into... this, that we will see an expansion/rework/new layer on top of the current association agreements. Something more like associate member states.
My guess is that it will take a form where associate states will have no explicit political power (no elected politicians, and not likely any appointed political positions either), but will have greater access to less direct influence, that could potentially-eventually even include formal rights of hearing with the Commission, a right to speak in Parliament, and/or guarantees of consultation on certain matters.
I think this could become a more standardised system than the current association agreements. In many ways it would be like having different membership tracks, with different benefits and requirements. I expect that realist school foreign policy is going to overwhelmingly dominate global foreign affairs, with the idealist school being relegated to mainly having influence in regional foreign affairs. As such, I think standards on political and human rights that these associate members will have to live up to are going to be an order og magnitude less strict than what is required of full members. There will probably be other requirements that will be more important, such as certain foreign policy commitments.
As for level of integration, I would imagine that such an associate member would be able to become fully integrated in many areas, but on an opt-in basis, possibly with almost standardised package deals, where certain benefits and obligations (both legal and economic) are bestowed together. Things like Schengen membership, or access to some of the large redistribute programs (agricultural subsidies come to mind) will remain very exclusive, and membership in these will continue to be largely political, rather than something that can be accessible to any associate member that fulfills certain objective criteria.
Do I have any special insights that make me able to predict the future? No. No one can predict the future. But I think these are some pretty solid guesses.

Can you delete it a little harder? It's still there for me. Maybe you only put it in the thrash bin. You need to either empty the bin, or press shift+delete in order to delete it permanently.
Godspeed. We're all counting on you, oh ye who has the power to delete all of Reddit!
P.S.: Not trying to make fun of you, btw! Just entertaining myself. "Deleting" something sounds so different when you're used to using it through your browser. :D

I admittedly didn't read the article (no time as I speak), but surely they included a control group?
