Hard Pass

I just had to email me a file I got sent to my phone and I feel unable to accept this as the better solution.

What you do guys use for inter-device communication?

I've had some feedback today that Decronym is "spamming" unrelated acronym definitions into threads that don't need them. Unfortunately, details of which acronyms are superfluous wasn't forthcoming, so:

From this list, which acronyms do you guys think can be removed as unnecessary to explain?

http://decronym.xyz/acronyms/selfhosted@lemmy_world

Edited to add: There've been instances of the bot "finding" acronyms that aren't mentioned in the thread, and speculation that vibecoding is at fault. The real answer, I think, is simpler.

Decronym uses a local Lemmy instance, and polls the database directly for new comments. Last time I tried to upgrade Lemmy, it went so badly I had to wipe the server and start over from a fresh Debian; threads on the fresh instance started from ID 1 again.

But Decronym's list of detected acronyms wasn't wiped, so it's been pointing at the wrong thread IDs this whole time.

I've now wiped the threads and detected acronyms for this comm, and the bot should behave more sensibly.

When Trump makes the nomination official, it will end Blanche’s two months serving in the role in an acting capacity since his predecessor, Pam Bondi, was fired. Since then, Blanche, Trump’s firebrand former personal attorney, has taken great pains to prove to the president that he is up for the job.

Over the past several weeks, Blanche has only garnered more favor at the White House. He secured indictments against some of the president’s personal foes like former FBI Director James Comey, rolled back gun control measures and issued subpoenas to journalists for their sources. He’s also announced sweeping fraud initiatives across the country, which work hand-in-hand with the White House’s “war on fraud.”

But critics, citing those same efforts, say that Blanche has effectuated the president’s personal and political agenda to use the Justice Department as his own attack mechanism.

Fears that push for ballroom spending could jeopardize $70bn funding for immigration enforcement

Senate Republicans on Wednesday formally dropped their attempt to spend $1bn on security improvements for Donald Trump’s White House ballroom, as it became clear the president’s demand for the money could jeopardize long-term funding for immigration enforcement.

The Senate judiciary committee had last month included funding for security improvements related to the new ballroom in a broader measure that would authorize $70bn in spending for agencies involved in Trump’s mass deportation campaign through the duration of his term.

On Wednesday, the committee released a revised text that no longer mentioned the money, which was included in legislation dubbed the Secure America Act that advanced on a party-line vote of 53-46 later that afternoon.
