Related shower thought: does the Pope excrete holy shit? May it all be in the Vatican all along?
- Comment on Finally a map to show me 2 hours ago:
I don’t think Russia primarily features DD’s. Mostly B’s here, it seems.
- Comment on The only way to be 1 day ago:
This is not quite genuine.
Anarcho-capitalists generally don’t like corporations, either, they just believe that the state plays a crucial role in keeping them afloat, through patents, bailouts, and corruption. They commonly believe that without the state, the markets will generally revert to many small individual actors.
This is unlikely to be true, however, as the economies of scale by themselves heavily reward massive corporations, and private police and military will likely allow them to stronghand their opponents.
If we are serious about promoting left-wing ideas, we should take our opponents as they are, and not build strawmen for ourselves to ridicule.
- Comment on Selling BTC or not..? 2 days ago:
Yes, by all means, it is time to sell. The upwards potential is unclear, while the downward movement can get you back to $30000. Most likely, you will not gain much more on this market at the moment, while potential loss is colossal.
- Comment on You could get anything you wanted and it was FREE 1 week ago:
This! Also, I have never found a single incorrect naming there.
- Comment on What should the subset of the Fediverse that is Lemmy + Mbin + PieFed be called? 1 week ago:
Threadiverse kinda captures it, but it also calls association with Threads (by Meta), like if it’s the parent of it, while in fact it’s not even part of it.
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 1 week ago:
Honestly, the “human extinction” level of climate change is very far away. Currently, we’re preventing the “sunken cities, economic crisis and famine in poor regions” kind of change, it’s just that “we’re all gonna die” sounds flashier.
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 1 week ago:
Yes, my apologies I edited it so drastically to better get my point across.
Sure, we get more information. But we also learn to filter it, to adapt to it, and eventually - to disregard things we have little control over, while finding what we can do to make it better.
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 1 week ago:
People were always manipulated. I mean, they were indoctrinated with divine power of rulers, how much worse can it get? It’s just that now it tries to be a bit more stealthy.
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 1 week ago:
I’d argue this has been this way since the dawn of time.
Maybe the technology has just highlighted it for some of us, but I do not believe we have more dumbheads than a year, or 10 years, or 100 years prior.
Think of the “end of history” and how it was prophecized millennia ago.
- Comment on Has anyone tested yunohost? 1 week ago:
Ability to properly work with apps outside the officially recommended list, to customize Docker containers etc.
At least from what I can recall from 1-1,5 years ago that I used it.

Wrong community, maybe? Lol

iirc, algae are better oxygen producers per units of mass and volume, so a tank full of algae might actually be better than a tree. One issue though is that trees can grow on open ground, while algae require a tank to be built, most likely negating the economic benefits. Also, trees are more aesthetically pleasing.

This story is all you need to know about Internet negativity. People tend to forget that those on the other end are very real, with their own knowledge and feeling and everything. The second the discussion gets more personal, the second you remember human, it’s all gone.
- Comment on Game design question : how to make a "trapped" player character? 1 week ago:
Do both
- Comment on New to lemmy. Is there a version of /r/changemyview? 1 week ago:
Yep, called after a Blahaj, an IKEA shark and a trans mascot
- Comment on Has anyone tested yunohost? 1 week ago:
Nice as a starting point, but not enough features to make it worth it for advanced setups.
- Comment on Data hoarding is more important than ever 1 week ago:
On an unrelated note: the site has the least invasive adblock banner I’ve ever seen. Made me wish to immediately turn it off.
- Comment on “Bionic Girl” Debuts New Wireless Hands That Even Work When Detached From the Main Prosthetic 1 week ago:
Fair, but do you have to manipulate them at the same time? For example, additional prosthetic arms can help you carry your bags, or hold something else. This doesn’t require much brain power to do, and is still very useful.
- Comment on “Bionic Girl” Debuts New Wireless Hands That Even Work When Detached From the Main Prosthetic 1 week ago:
Yay!
- Comment on “Bionic Girl” Debuts New Wireless Hands That Even Work When Detached From the Main Prosthetic 1 week ago:
You know what, wireless prosthetics could be useful even for those of us who have both hands.
We can basically go full General Grievous and do so many things at once

Ladies, it’s your turn
- Comment on Getting mixed signals from Reddit. Furthermore I shall henceforth be on Lemmy full time. 2 weeks ago:
Only by the admin of your home instance, which is unlikely and normally comes after something very extreme.
Normally, you’ll get banned by the community/certain instance in very gruesome cases, but not your account.
- Comment on Slate, a no-nonsense EV pickup for $20k 2 weeks ago:
Both options available
- Comment on Google is killing privacy sandbox in Chrome. 2 weeks ago:
The goal of the Privacy Sandbox initiative is to develop new ways to strengthen online privacy while ensuring a sustainable, ad-supported internet.
Like, that’s all you need to know about what it ever was.
- Comment on 4chan Is Dead. Its Toxic Legacy Is Everywhere 3 weeks ago:
A typical 4chan user is very concerned about privacy, because it’s a place they do stuff they wouldn’t do elsewhere.
Once a trust is broken, it is very hard to regain. Technically, nothing stops it from appearing again. But will the userbase follow?

Only one way to find out! :D
- Comment on Papra, the minimalistic document archiving platform 3 weeks ago:
For future reference: there are fields “URL” (the link) and “Thumbnail URL” (the picture). If you paste the image, the Thumbnail URL field disappears, and picture URL appears in URL field.
Cut it, and Thumbnail URL field appears again. Paste it into the Thumbnail URL field, and enter the link to whatever you want to be opened into the URL field again.
Voila - you have a link AND a custom picture. It’s weird, it shouldn’t work this way, but it works.
- Comment on Beelink ME mini is a NAS with an Intel N200 processor and support for up to 6 SSDs 3 weeks ago:
I have a long-term dream to build a fanless SSD-powered NAS
Self-hosted, silent, fast - what’s not to love, aside from steep price tag?
- Comment on In heat 3 weeks ago:
Google correction
- Comment on For me, it's going to be Fediverse or nothing 3 weeks ago:
A good thing about Lemmy is that you can change instance/make your own and do and promote anything you like. That’s the fundamental difference.
You can be banned from a community, from instance, even. But not from Lemmy as a whole.
A fundamental shift may occur when more people of the same views start alternative communities where such pressures are absent.
