Right? Oh no, my disc rot, good thing I have 3 backups.
- Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses 16 hours ago:
It does not say that it will be different in any of the ways that OP inquired about.
- Comment on A Reddit moderation tool is flagging ‘Luigi’ as potentially violent content 19 hours ago:
Once again, not sure how any of this indicates that a spokesperson is not a source.
- Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses 23 hours ago:
The article doesn’t say anything about that.
- Comment on A Reddit moderation tool is flagging ‘Luigi’ as potentially violent content 23 hours ago:
I still don’t get it. Nothing there says a spokesperson is not a source. Which is good because saying such a thing would make absolutely no sense.

I’m not reading that. What are you saying?
- Comment on A Reddit moderation tool is flagging ‘Luigi’ as potentially violent content 1 day ago:
…its both

You give it to whoever asks for it or you never get another source again.

I mean you could put a stand on an old tablet. Personally I just put it on the TV.

There’s nothing on that list that will be unique to this vehicle.

My intention was not to hate on it, I think it’s a great project, but just to make people aware of considerations.
But it’s configurable right?
On your self-hosted instance? Sure. On the default instance? No.
I’d argue that not everything needs to be federated.
I agree, but it is nice to have.
wouldn’t being federated and encrypted not really work out?
No, lots of platforms that are both.
What would be the point in encrypting all communication between the server instance and client, to then federate it out to other servers?
So you could communicate with people on other servers securely?

…that’s not hyperbole
- Comment on Looks like Instagram wants some of Discord's market. 1 day ago:
Yes it’s pretty great except
- File size limits on the default instance are 20mb.
- Its not federated.
- Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses 1 day ago:
And buying what instead?
- Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses 1 day ago:
What car would somebody buy if they cared about those things? There are no choices
Because at one time there was a choice.
- Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses 1 day ago:
Yes I understand what a concept car is. That changes nothing about my comment because it wasn’t about this specific car.
- Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses 2 days ago:
Ehhh I think it is. You should pretty much expect all of those things from any new car.
Consumers have spoken and they don’t care about privacy, reliability or repairability.

You also clearly missed the point of my comment
I understood your point completely. Yet mine somehow still zipped over your head.
- Comment on I'm Tired of Pretending Tech is Making the World Better 2 days ago:
Maybe they did? You’re kinda missing the point though, which is that this stuff is becoming more and more common and will be nigh-unavoidable in the future.

Unfortunately that market is already flooded with functionally-useless 8GB machines.
- Comment on Tesla sales crash continues in Europe, with Germany down 70% 3 days ago:
I mean he’s become a whole lot richer. Tesla is just a casualty. Why he hasn’t been ousted from the board or sued by investors, I don’t understand.
- Comment on Meet Rayhunter: A New Open Source Tool from EFF to Detect Cellular Spying 3 days ago:
It didn’t mention anything about the CPU in the install instructions…
I guess I’ll give it a try on my Linux machine.

I don’t
