Australian here. Limit is 100km/h? Fine, set cruise to 100 and relax. Not fast enough? Tough, that’s your problem. (but we get fined for 3km/h over here.)

Now to hook two modems to two computers and get them to ‘talk’ over WhatsApp…

Bitcoin cash maybe as it's not limited to a small block size, but as others have said, there are probably better options out there now.

Most cryptos are deflationary. That seems to cause hoarding.
Having no inflation sounds good to me if paired with no growth in population, but I know little about economics.

- Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber 3 months ago:
Reminds me of my senior teaching days 15 years ago. Solitaire, same.exe and saddam.exe and whack.exe soon had those oldies clicking, double clicking and dragging.
Didn't think then that the situation could reverse.
Same still exists on Android and is still a brain twister.

- Comment on UK households could face VPN 'ban' after use skyrockets following Online Safety Bill 3 months ago:
Couldn't people just hire a VPS in another country and VPN with that using Wireguard etc, or even use RDP etc to it? Is it even a VPN if you're remotely operating a computer in another country?
- Comment on Can no longer access my old instance (lemmings.world) because I'm from the UK. I made several communities there. Is there any way I can mod them again or do I move them to this instance? 3 months ago:
I've not had any issues with them. It's a pretty user friendly VPN app, and having a small allowance you can test it with before buying is pretty handy. Most other VPNs you have to pay up before you can test them AFAIK.

Tunnelbear has a free 2GB a month one - not enough for a lot of use probably, but an easy to test if a paid VPN will do what you need.

Well, it works with ice cream.
- Comment on What is piefed? 3 months ago:
Others have covered most.
For me the one killer feature is grouping of duplicate articles over multiple instances into one post, with comments from all istances listed therein.
This takes away the ghost town feeling of Lemmy, and the frustration of seeing the same post multiple times while scrolling.
The one bad thing is we can't upload images to posts or comments, so it's several steps forward, one step backwards.
