@southerntofu@lemmy.ml and @mp3@lemmy.ml are also some of the OG's at just one day younger than the founders account!

What can I say about them, well not much except that mp3 is a gaming fiend and while southerntofu seems to not post very much, you know it will be a meaningful contribution when they do - certainly no serial shitposter (like me).

Thunderbird will support matrix protocol out-of-the-box in version 102 (due June) and is available in v91 beta now.

I just tried it, you go to preferences, edit config, add a string "chat.prpls.prpl-matrix.disable" and set it to false and matrix becomes an available option in the chats part of your account setup....now to find my old password.....

Due to cost saving its common for a new laptop to some ports of different USB specification now. If you look closely some may be marked by a different logo like s.s (super speed I think)

Russia Demands Wikipedia Take Down Information About Ukraine War in c/worldnews@lemmy.ml
[–] mekhos@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (10 children)

Close, from the article-

The Russian media censorship agency Roskomnadzor demanded the volunteer-run online encyclopedia take down any information on the invasion that is “misinforming” Russians, according to a statement.

They attempt ever-greater follies trying to recover what they just recently lost.

The bar was set pretty high with invading, I sure hope there are not "ever-greater" follies to come

Sony Xperias had this happen too, something to do with the IP of the camera firmware
