Advice needed on Facebook alternatives for the Fedi 

@FediFollows @onepict

My understanding has actually always been that D* _is_ a part of the fediverse, and that being in the fediverse (which consists of multiple protocols) and supporting ActivityPub (used by Mastodon and friends) are two separate things.

At least that's what Wikipedia and several other websites lead me to believe.

What I find fascinating is that had McAfee not doubled down on his bet, it would have just been off by less than three months.

we have gone back to the time of mainframes and terminals, except worse.

Apparently is planning to limit the storage on the (previously) "unlimited" educational plans.

Not that I'm storing anything important on it, but now I have to look elsewhere for an offsite backup of my NAS...

As someone who's (sort of) managing for the school, it also sucks since we now have to come up with quotas/AUPs and whatnot.

Probably depends on whether you have E2E enabled. Can't remember whether this is the default on Element.

@asakura @borrof If your laptop is slow, Bloat is excellent, though it's still browser-based. No JS required, but you can turn on some minimal JS (called "fluoride mode" in the settings) to make, e.g., likes work without a page reload.

You can run it locally, though there are also public instances. FSE's is at bloat.freespeechextremist.com , and code at git.freespeechextremist.com. We have a few local modifications from the original, which is at freeSOFTWAREextremist.com: https://git.freesoftwareextremist.com/bloat .
@cantinto @PonyPanda Yeah, I came up in a different time for the interweebs: flame wars were a pastime, you had to operate as if you knew no one was going to "win", so you ignore it unless you enjoy the process. It got tied up in all this culture war bullshit and now people that will enjoy an absurd rant without taking it personally are rare, everyone's got an agenda.

@fribbledom This makes little sense as the same energy usage is independent of the amount of transactions a block contains.

Let's assume you make a Bitcoin transaction now, and you measure the work of the next block. Then measure again, without making a transaction. The work of those two blocks will be independent. The miner is getting paid even with no fee market.

You can't just divide energy usage by transaction count.

Another flaw: off-chain transactions are not considered.

Democrats won't come out and say they want a full gun ban because why would they?

Instead they'll do what they do in New York and Chicago. They'll regulate guns so heavily that it's not worth the hassle or the potential prison sentence for stupid things like not having the "approved" container for transport or having too large of a magazine.
If you can get a gun then it will be hard to find ammunition for it and impossible to find a legal place to shoot it.
In effect, they want to ban all guns because they're authoritarians.

1. 使用 github.com/badafans/better-clo 优选连接速度最快的 Cloudflare IP

2. 配置客户端 address ,手动指定 v2ray 连接步骤1中优选的 IP 地址。

3. 配置客户端 wsSettings.headers.Host 为原先 address 中的域名。本项对应 V2Ray N(NG)中的 ws host。

Me: Manages to stalemate anyway.

Is there a video of vtubers doing this though? Would totally wanna watch it lol

Evidence that hololive vtubers are secretly female 

1. fail at simple arithmetic like "what's 11 plus 9"
2. fail at constructing simple geometric shapes, like a 2x2 square
3. fail at finishing a game of chess, like "trap this undefended king with my free rook and queen"
there are many other clues, and #1 and #2 you could argue are just a guy pretending to be bad at math, but with several overlong chess games due to #3 I believe it's now undeniable that actual women are playing these games.

This may blow up into a scandal bigger than when when stage theater started to secretly phase out men in drag playing all the female roles.
