I’m wondering if the “counting” could be derived from a form of proprioception rather than maintaining an active count. Distance just gets scaled and thrown off by longer legs.

To me that sounds an awful lot like TikTok being closer to good old American media than some Chinese psyop.

I, for one, only want domestic adversaries abusing my personal information. Actual rocks and fence posts are smarter than this.

- Comment on Trying to find and understand the best microblogging platforms for my needs 3 months ago:
I have also been searching for a microblogging instance that doesn’t have so many random blocks. It seems most instances block more liberally than even the more closed off Lemmy instances. Due to the sheer size of mastodon and number of other services, it kind of makes sense. I’m definitely getting paralysis-by-analysis trying to choose, though. It might help to consider newer forks like iceshrimp and sharkey, too, even just for their functionality. Or maybe that will make choosing harder? Lol
But still, like I said, I haven’t landed on anything in particular. It just seems more segmented, whereas with Lemmy, the biggest instances have pretty much identical front pages. I fear missing out on something too much…
Sorry if I’m kind of rambling and not really any help. Your post just reflected my experience of trying to find something. Hopefully we’ll get there!

They’re afraid because now they can’t raid the evidence room or flip it on the down low. But also because they’re big dumb babies.

- Comment on If your instance is defederated from another instance, would it be sockpuppeting to create another account to view posts from that instance? 4 months ago:
It doesn’t help with the reasoning, but defed.xyz has been a lot easier to use than scrolling through the /instances endpoints

For some reason I thought it was more annoying to work out than it looks to be. @RegalPotoo you might want to check out nix-versions
- Comment on Tool to manage CLI tools 5 months ago:
I only started diving into nix this year so I’m still learning, but yeah, I’m pretty sure the lack of granular versioning is a common pain point with nixpkgs. I’d suggest checking out flakes if you haven’t already, but be warned, it gets hairy lol

Is this Nix bait? Cause I’d say Nix.

It’s insanely pricey, but the GPD Win 4 is the closest thing I’ve seen to what I’m dreaming of. You’ve gotta really want it at that price point though.

- Comment on How would i audit graphineos updates, Drama wierdness? 8 months ago:
This comment explains the drama and concerns pretty well. In short, the problematic lead stepped down and there isn’t really a reason to discredit the dev team as a whole.
As far as auditing goes, the code is available on GitHub. Only slightly joking, following release updates would be a good way to see what’s changing at a high level.
