The other day at work my wife saw a customer with a giant decal on the back of his truck that said ULTRA GIGGA MAGA.

No honor among thieves.

Anyone with half a brain knows it’s a blatantly corrupt system having little to do with law.

Maybe. I feel that Reddit cares little about bots and astroturfing. It drives up the engagement numbers. Independent server operators care more, but have fewer resources. Time will tell.

It underlines fundamental leadership problems within their communities. Good moderators don’t tend to align with corporate interests — preferring a sterile and saccharine approach to discourse breeds shitty mods and shitty users.

Independent and authentic is everything Reddit is not.

I’ve specifically put more effort into playing an active role and being part of conversations because I believe in the promise of Lemmy.

Isn’t it great when it’s up to you and not to some global platform-controlling entity?

You must host your own data if you don’t want a third party going through it.

As I’m sure you’ve gathered, this is a complex and nuanced discussion, but to me the biggest factors making Linux fast are:

• Absence of telemetry/data collection monitoring your use of the device
• Open source development model encouraging the entire world to contribute to make the Linux kernel better

There’s something to be said where a consistent 5% performance improvement in a filesystem or process scheduler would be taken as a huge win. How would you even manage finding or contributing such a change to something closed source like Windows 11? Academics write papers about the kernel’s performance and how it can be improved whereas I tend to think Microsoft takes more of a ‘good enough’ approach to such details.

All they have to do is say it was an official act.

I’ve not been quite the same since, but I’m thankful I didn’t lose it! Carelessness on my part.

You didn’t ask, but I was wearing some jeans and somehow one of my ‘kids’ got stuck in a pant leg and as I yanked it off it became hyper extended and tore some ligaments.

Every woman will be different but according to my wife it’s mainly for the support. I appreciated this more when I had a testicular injury where I needed underwear that lifts holds and prevents unnecessary movement.

I have one paid email address that’s my main that I purchased from an overseas provider, just to complicate spying and reduce perverse motivations to use my data to profit.

I have a secondary older email address, a professional work email address, and then a long tail of anti-spam aliases.

How do we know that the hardware encrypts the data correctly? Can we observe ciphertext?

Complaints? What, do they think their favorite social media isn’t at least 60% repost bots?

Go to enough concerts without hearing protection and he will get his wish.

Thank you for sharing the quick summary of the event!

To be fair, there are multiple instances and communities. If there was only one post, there’s no guarantee that everyone on the fediverse would see it.

The system is not designed to provide one consistent view of all its contents.
