Had us in the first half, not gonna lie.

The ship of “Lemmy must be entirely FOSS” has sailed. You can either invest time or money and even then there are some tradeoffs of things that can’t be swapped out. Datadog and Cloudflare are two of those such things.

Lemmy (including lemmy.world) are at a critical junction to continue to grow or lose momentum. These DDOSs are one such thing that caused it and everyone going “FOSS, FOSS, FOSS!” are another. If they have time in the future there may be a possibility, but when playing the growth game sometimes you have to go with the best tool available even if it doesn’t meet your ideals.

Sync for Reddit is another such tool. I’ve seen so much hate for it because it’s not pure FOSS, pay no mind to the sheer number of people that have downloaded it, are using it and have helped drive traffic to Lemmy and the Fediverse in general.

Nothing is stopping you from using a fully FOSS front end with your own server, that’s the beauty of the Fediverse, you can choose what you want and still interact with others, but don’t get on their case when they select something you don’t like.

Is this really any different from Spectre and other types of attacks? Except those targeted predictive execution.

But, but, it’s contributing to the entropy of the universe!

MHz refers to the samples per second, not the pitch. CD audio for example is 16-bit/44.1kHz. What that means is there are 16-bits of sampling (audio) taken 44,100 times per second. DSD on the other hand is 1-bit samples taken 11.2 million times per second, this is referred to as DSD256. What that translates to is a digital wave that looks a lot closer to an analog wave than a CD does. It has nothing to do with the frequency of listening in this case.

I may be looking at it wrong but there’s an odd flaw to me in the premise. I view “pay money to avoid being shocked” as something that is happening to you, out of your control. Pressing the button, regardless of the outcome, is something you are choosing to do and is most likely a result of curiosity and bordem.

I think a better approach would have been “if you push this button, the simulation is over and you loose”, and then see what people do.

Oh I’m not absolving them of their culpability either, however there is a two pronged approach that is happening right now. The first are those mouth pieces as you listed, but then there is the amplification of the message that is occuring and guiding conversations that is the work on troll farms. This more natural “grass roots” conversation is what I’m likening to their concerns about AI. The difference is you’re just taking the human out of the equation.

Unlike the GOP is already doing via Russia troll farms?

It’s probably the most secure,. commonly available, messaging platform right now. They keep a bare minimum of metadata on their servers. Basically enough to link you on the platform. After that, everything is e2e encrypted and they can’t tell authorities anything.

Other platforms are a sliding scale from to/from/time data, all the way up to full messages.

Temperature doesn’t necessarily equate with lumens. I prefer closer to 2700K (warm), as once you pass 3000-5000 it’s just a very harsh white, but a higher number of lumens (depending on space 1500+). Also you need to consider the way you want your light projected. A direct beam can be good for focused work but can cause some harsh shadows. Using up lights or wall washes can give you the reflected light that makes the room seem more lit without harsh shadows.

Edit: something else to consider is CRI (color reproduction index). Try to find 90+ bulbs as those will ensure the colors it lights up look true to their originals. Makes a big difference especially if you’re painting.

Maybe mentally I’ve already been hit with inflation, but $2 and “significant increase” do not tie out to me.

Pregnant and he was 59?

I heard a teenager describing a 40 year old as “elderly”. Context matters.

Publicly traceable and verifiable hashes of the images authenticity. Submitting a hash of the image can prove who submitted it and when and then any altering of the image would yield a different hash which you would know you’re not looking at the original image.

I know Blockchain is always in search of a solution, but is this one place where it may work? Take a hash of the image and store that hash in a chain, that way you can always hash the image and see if it’s been altered?

That’s odd. I just went straight to the menu in Firefox and hit install, no problems and it’s my default browser.

You’re just not going to give up this crusade are you? Going to start comparing salaries of line workers to starving kids in Africa again?

Can you install Firefox on iOS? If so see how it works using that for the PWA back end.

I used to love Xposed. The xPrivacy plug-in did exactly what OP asked. Unfortunately Google kept changing and restricting the API and also the switch from Davlik to ART pretty much killed it off.

Got news for you. 4 months is on the short side. Any place that processes credit card or other transactional data will most likely keep it around 13 months if not longer. And yes you guys can quote “well actually it’s not required”, no, no it’s not, but I’ve worked with enough companies to know they hoover and keep IP, user agent string ,etc for quite a while.
