I wanted some of their side projects. Their web-things iot automation controller (and related standards) was pretty sweet. Until they spun it off into its own company without any staff.

That’s a wild interpretation of what they said.

Dude described a branding problem, not a technical problem.

Omg mine too (too embarrassing to share).

I forgot how much more patient with pacing we all used to be back in the 00s. Just trusting that the video would go somewhere and there’d be a payoff.

Looking at some of the popular videos from back then, people these days would just scroll away because nothing hooked their attention quickly enough. Myself included. We’ve been trained to expect such quick payoff 😭.

Fuck, now I’ma have to go check on my old deviantart account.

Sorry, the best I can do is passive aggressiveness and righteous indignation

The data needs to be sent from the voter to the server that owns the post. But the server that owns the post can anonymize the data before it sends it to clients or other servers.

That said I don’t have deep understanding of activitypub. Its possible that something would prevent this, like if votes made their way to the server that owns the post by way of telephone game rather than directly from the client or the user’s home server. But that seems like an unreasonable design, so I doubt (hope not) that is the case.

Yeah, and I think that’s the argument about making it public.

But access rights to stuff seems like the kind of thing that should be configurable, even if it requires a change and isn’t backwards compatible

And that should probably be configurable

Allow it to be configurable by server or community. Some communities may benefit from allowing the public or mods to see votes, while others would be hurt by it.

Servers can see who voted on what, even if the vote is on another server.

So if you view the vote from a server that makes the views public (like a kbin server) or you run your own Lemmy server, then you can see it.

Most clients make having multiple accounts super easy.

Not that I’d know anything about that 🫣

Wow you’re making some absolutely WILD assumptions about what the poster believes, and in generalizing it to the populous. You’d win Olympic gold in long-jumping-to-conclusions with the distance of that jump.

Strangely applies to American police, too

Edit:
upon reflection, this sounds like I think white cops are better. What I meant to say is that the white cops are just gonna shoot you so gg.

I’m super skeptical of this.

You don’t get oxygen toxicity, even breathing pure oxygen, unless you’re under significantly more pressure than atmospheric pressure…

So either this graphic is wrong/misleading, or the atmosphere was more than double current pressure for most of earth’s history… Which I’m pretty skeptical of.

Pump the brakes.

She isn’t saying that she doesn’t know about photosynthesis. She is saying she didn’t understand what the child was actually asking about.

There is a world of difference between knowing the answer and understanding the question, especially if the question was asked by someone who doesn’t even really know what they’re trying to ask either.

People are missing the more important question:
Why did she put the cucumber back in the fridge?

I think the devil lost on purpose; the devil gets Johnny’s soul by making him commit the sin of pride, not by winning the competition.

I mean, Abe’s shooter seemed to have more straightforward motivations: Abe propped up that specific church, and that specific church ruined his family.

At least, from what I’ve understood from English language news articles in the headlines around the time it happened.

I’m not familiar with those protections, but I’m not confident in them actually holding up in court considering the technical sophistication of the network compared to the technical competence of the courts.

But it’s good to know that there are at least protections in theory.

The problem is we’re not there yet.

There are no protections for me if I unknowingly let some stranger use me as a host or router for CP or some pedo shit. It’s not a risk I’m willing to take. There need to be legal protections in place, like there are for ISPs.

I’m ok with living in a world where liberties are sometimes abused, but I’m not ok with a world where innocents get punished for the actions of strangers.

Do you mean monetization so that instance hosts can recoup costs?
Or do you mean monetization so that content creation gets paid?
