Has the JIT made it into trunk for ppc64le yet? I am starting to run into dumb issues with anti-bot verification, and would love to use Fedora's provided Firefox for simplicity.

We have resolved a problem with the attachment storage and uploads should now be working again.  Apologies for the issues!

I can tell you that the error always refers to the size of the image, I use the resolution reduction to drastically reduce the file size, and yet nothing is wrong, I've always done it this way and up until now it has always worked, now for some time now I can't do it anymore, I don't understand...

It is possible that the "file too big" error refers to the resolution of the picture and not its size on disk. But usually, the error message should contain details about the max resolution supported.
Depending on the type of content (regular picture or avatar), you may be able to guess based on common or conservative values 🤔

https://github.com/runlevel5/firefox-ppc64/releases/tag/FIREFOX_153_0_4_RELEASE_PPC64 has also added support for PowerPC970 (G4/G5). I have tested it on Debian Linux running on my POWER9 box and had 2 folks in the ArchPOWER side to help with the verification with their G5 however I am not 100% certain that it would perfectly on native hardware (PowerMac G4)

I linked the wrong repo originally, apologies.

Edit:

This video was tested with the currently available git repo:

User Zone / problems uploading photos

Guys, I'm having a problem uploading photos. Even though I reduce the file size to less than 1MB, I use files around 500 KB or so. The site keeps telling me they're too big and won't let me upload them, even though I've always used files of that size. I've even tried smaller files than 500 KB, but the result is always the same. Can anyone tell me what's going on? I've tried contacting the site administrator twice, but I've never received a response.

Still have to buy SATA-cables and 4-pin ARBG fans for the Blackbird
To control the ARGB LEDs I plan to use a custom RP2040 board.

Operating Systems and Porting / [HELP] How to propery configure https

« Last post by isengaara on August 09, 2026, 10:29:00 am »

How do I configure my ThinkPad X200 running Debian that it trusts the https certificate of my BlackBirds BMC? I get the following warning:
rehash: warning: skipping blackbird.pem, it does not contain exactly one certificate or CRL
