  The thing I liked the most about Lemm.ee was that there was a general policy against defederating. It let me drink directly from the whole lemmy firehose if I wanted. If I wanted to block individual communities or users, that was within my personal power and nobody decided to step in my way and decide for me. What is Lemmy.zip’s defederation policy? How many instances have they opted to defederate from?

  Surely it will work this time!

  It’s only pure dumb luck it backfired (literally every other time) before (including immediately prior to the great depression)!

  Here’s how I think a GoG subscription might work out:

  The money goes into a balance on your account. It just accumulates store credit.

  You might raise the question of “why would anyone decide to do that”, to which I put to you this:

  I want to give myself a “gaming allowance” of a little bit each month but saving is hard. If I am paying GoG a monthly subscription, though, and I accumulate a balance of credit, I can get games without it impacting my budget outside of what I’ve exactly allotted.

  What else do I get? The warm fuzzy feeling of supporting GoG. Which I’d definitely do anyway. Honestly, letting me turn my subscription into store credit is a huge boon. I don’t NEED any perks beyond that.

  I resent rich people in general but I fucking hate this feckless buffoon especially. Professionally, he ruined Batman. Personally, he doesn’t understand the difference between race and religion when it comes to people who practice Islam and that’s both reductive and patronizing. Fuck Ben Affleck.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Klarna Hiring Back Human Help After Going All-In on AI⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re right, absolutely spot on, about several things but ONE IN PARTICULAR is this:

  A human being helping a customer is, quite literally, an act of circumvention. Customer service EXISTS, SPECIFICALLY, for scenarios that require exceptions and skilled, knowledgeable internal maneuvering within, between, and around the cold mechanisms of machinery and policy. We tend to think of, say, purchasing items at a store as standard operation, for instance. But really, from the perspective of the business, its objective is to RESTRICT access to goods and services. The cashier manages exceptions to this goal. If the company has its way, it would take your money while relinquishing NOTHING.

  Stare at the center of a bright red circle for like 3 minutes,

  Then look away at a white surface.

  It looks like what those people in the article describe, especially in the “holy shit I’ve never seen that before” feeling.

  Bummer that it doesn’t specify which application of nuclear power, but seeing as in forced to guess, I’d surmise they’re using RTG.

  Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator

  The spicy rocks get hot and the differential between the hot bit and the cold exterior (and titan is VERY COLD INDEED) “pushes” electrons, to put it as simply as possible.

  IF SO, it’s pretty normal for the most part; we’ve been using RTGs for generations.
