- Comment on What 5 Megabytes of Computer Data Looked Like in 1966 ~ Vintage Everyday 1 day ago:
It still looks like that but it did then, too.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
And does anyone actually think those have a chance of passing right now?
There’s always been talk of succession here and there, but we just aren’t at the point of the US actually breaking up.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
I think you need some perspective. The situation is bad and seems like foreshadowing of worse things to come. However, we’re a pretty far distance from states pulling away or civil war breaking out.

What is it you’re looking for? Do you want to know what kinds of information is used for fingerprinting?
If so, check out coveryourtracks.eff.org and amiunique.org.

And automatic darkmode isn’t respected, and a lot of other little annoyances. That’s why this is so difficult. These are all incredibly useful features we would have to sacrifice for privacy.
- Comment on Elon Musk’s X blocks links to Signal, the encrypted messaging service 3 days ago:
Thanks for the correction. That’s pretty rad. Now I’m wondering if that’s a wrong memory or if it was released in the last few years.
- Comment on Elon Musk’s X blocks links to Signal, the encrypted messaging service 3 days ago:
Their backend is closed source.
- Comment on Researchers are training AI to interpret animal emotions 4 days ago:
Blog spam. The source article is actually worth reading.
- Comment on Reddit plans to lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says | Reddit executives also discussed how they might introduce more ads into the social media platform 6 days ago:
If the paid subreddits pay out to the creators, that seems like an okay feature. Also dipping into the Patreon market.
- Comment on US Bill proposed to jail people who download Deepseek 2 weeks ago:
More protectionist bullshit that won’t help anyone.

Internet, phones, snail mail, word of mouth, whatever. The issue remains the same. You need clout. And a lot of it in the right places with the right people.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
You need a shitload of influence across the entire region you’re targeting (the county?). If you’re asking this question, you probably don’t have it. You should’ve started a decade or two ago.
A national general strike requires the organization of other large amounts of large organizations with millions of members.
Calling for a strike on Lemmy won’t get you anything. The best random people like us might be able to do is target those with that influence to try and cajole them into organizing the strike.

2025 is off to a great start.
- Comment on New No Man's Sky update adds walkable gas giants among "trillions" of new planets, just in case you were running out 3 weeks ago:
The game’s been pretty good for years now
“Pretty good” is a bit of a stretch. It’s not completely broken and they added some okay features since launch but overall it’s still a pretty mid game.

That header image sure is something.
- Comment on Apple, Google, and Samsung will accept Matter certification for their own Works With programs 1 month ago:
I do believe Home Assistant supports Matter devices. So if it gets this badge it’s likely to work with HA.
- Comment on In 2025, People Will Try Living in This Underwater Habitat 1 month ago:
Many people said the same things about the ISS, I’m sure.

- Comment on What do people (as in, IRL) actually think of the [alleged] perpetrator involved in the NYC shooting? 2 months ago:
A coworker mentioned it would’ve been better if that CEO was put on trial for his bullshit as so many were being fucked over by callous capitalist choices.
That’s the thing, the law is on the CEOs side. Almost everyone thinks his behavior should be illegal except the politicians won’t do shit about it. That’s what should really be going on now. Congress should be addressing health care in some fashion. Even if that only means limited action like cracking down on predatory insurance companies. Fat chance though.
So without a legal path of fixing the issue, that only leaves illegal means.
- Comment on NATO plans to deploy sea drones to monitor and protect undersea cables — Admiral expects drone fleet patrols to begin from June 2025 2 months ago:
It’s kind of a MAD thing. If you open up this line of attack, everyone suffers because everyone depends on this shit now.
The latest seemingly intentional cuts seems almost pointless though, since there’s so many redundancies that cutting a single cable isn’t going to cause that much of an issue. Kind of seems like a bigger game I’m not aware of.
- Comment on Syria | Footage shows people emerging from Assad's notorious prisons 2 months ago:
“They forced my cousin whom I loved so much to torture me, and they force me to torture him. Otherwise, we would both be executed.”
Damn.

Could they get more dramatic?
- Comment on 'Democrat propaganda': Marjorie Taylor Greene plans to team up with Musk to defund NPR 2 months ago:
They got that fancy new law to kill non-profits that I’m sure would be useful.
- Comment on Interview: Nana Visitor Sees Inspiration In Star Trek’s New Era And A Better Future For Women In Hollywood 2 months ago:
I had no idea her name was Nana Visitor, so the title made no sense. What a name.

- Comment on What do you create? 2 months ago:
I like to create software tools for people smarter than me to create bigger and better things.
- Comment on What do you create? 2 months ago:
Disagree. Or at least, that’s just a side effect. I like talking to people about their expertise.
