  Yep, I am not entirely sure why English translation chose to go latin, but Ego also is just Latin for I/Ich, which is what Freud called the other two

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨partytime⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s the term for the primal urges, and instincts I believe, in Freudian psychology. In German it is “das Es” which would translate to “the It”. More I cannot really explain

  Federated means that any instance that is federated with them receives their content and can bee seen on that instance.

  Defederated means they are not federated anymore, thus blocking both users and content.

  It’s usually done to combat content you don’t want on your instance

  To me, it feels like something I’d call Cassettepunk. Basically the point in time where computers were using magnetic tapes and floppies, but extended into the future. The tech doesn’t really get any better in terms of detail, but it gets more screens, which mostly are CRT

  Missed where they had to tithe their crops to the Lord, besidey that, was very good

  Okay, so I dug in a bit deeper. Doubles are standardized as a 64 bit bundle that is divided into 1 signed bit, 11 exponetioal bits and 52 bits for decimal. It’s quite interesting. As to how it works indepth, I probably will try to analyze a bit conversion if I can try something

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Java⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I would need to look into the exact difference of double vs integer to know, but a partially educated guess is that they are referring to Int32 vs double and not Int64, aka long. I did a small search and saw that double uses 32 bits for the whole numbers and the others for the decimal.
