Users can now block instances.

finally…!

However the block doesn’t affect users from the blocked instance, their posts and comments can still be seen normally in other communities.

oh, so it is totally useless… 🙄

Say you hate Star Trek but you like the people on the Star Trek instance

i am glad we have a solution for this widespread problem! 😂

How to pass low voltage ethernet cables through drywall with insulation

Hello everyone, I am pulling my home’s existing ethernet cables from the garage and into my home to install a network rack. Currently my garage does not have insulation (for a future project), so it get’s too hot during summer for my router to live there, so I want to install it in my mudroom where there is insulation. My...

14th_cylon,

the smaller the hole, the smaller the heat transfer. you can also fill it with some kind of montage foam, once the cables are through.

14th_cylon,

i have an udp joke. i am not sure if you would get it, but i don’t really care.

14th_cylon,

i was once present to recording of some cheap radio advertisement, and the last step in the mixing process was that the guy burned the cd and plugged it in into 20 usd cd player to hear what it will sound like to the intended audience.

so not every professional has necessarily be an obnoxious asshole.

14th_cylon,

it may or may not be a monday - probably won’t. it will be monday based on the (4000 | year) => !(leap year) rule, but by the year 275000 the difference will be so big that i am pretty sure people will make more rules to solve that.

14th_cylon,

boy do i have a bad news for you… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic#A…

14th_cylon,

What a stupid take on the issue

14th_cylon,

No, it is not fair argument. New alloy doesn’t change how knife operate and isn’t going to increase number of knife attacks by an order of several magnitudes.

This will. Because good photoshop work was skill that took time to master, while now it can be done by any random moron.

Your other argument is dumb as well. People have a right to not having their face photoshopped onto random naked body. Whether it is really your body or not is not necessary to make you uncomfortable.

14th_cylon,

yeah, windows are clearly ahead… bastards!

14th_cylon,

i am pretty sure you have a reason to complain after this… money isn’t everything.


Mr. Perry first went to rehab in 1997 for what was described in news reports as an addiction to pain medication. In 2000, he was hospitalized for pancreatitis, an inflammation that can be caused by alcohol and drug abuse.

His addiction led to a series of complications in 2018 that included pneumonia, an exploded colon, a brief stint on life support, two weeks in a coma, nine months with a colostomy bag and more than a dozen stomach surgeries.

do they want to publish news every now and then, or do you just think they should? it seems like they are happy with what they have now.

there is nothing worse then outdated wordpress full of spam, where no one publishes anything because they don’t actually want to, but they were convinced by someone else that they “need it”

14th_cylon,

“most private way” and “posting on instagram” are somewhat disjoint sets

14th_cylon,

well, then i would say not having any other facebook apps and important information that could be stolen by the instagram in the phone, or use it in web-browser in some privacy mode or separate container, something like that. use disposable email.

using wifi in mcdonald is silly advice, i guess you are not being hunted by some secret service, there is really not much somone can do with your ip address, which is most likely dynamic and nated anyway. if you had some fixed ip address that would identify you, that might be another story.

“I will give them a billion dollars if they change their name to Dickipedia.”

is such promise legally binding in US? it would be fun to take billion dollars from him and i am pretty sure we could all survive wiki being renamed for a day…

14th_cylon,

well maybe he did learn his lesson from having to buy twitter after all 😆

14th_cylon,

and you know that, or are you mistaking your thoughts and wishes with facts?

www.google.com/search?q=is+verbal+promise+legally…

14th_cylon,

which link says that? i suspect you didn’t even bother to click on it, did you?

14th_cylon,

there were legal taxis before uber, uber or self driving cars don’t really change anything in that regard

14th_cylon,

Uber changed things a lot.

technology changed things a lot, not uber. i don’t really have detailed knowledge of us market, but where i am normal taxi services are using them as well, that’s not really something created by uber. the only innovation uber brought to the field is that the technology allowed them to organize taxi service in really shady way (aka “the gig economy”)

14th_cylon,

ok, i don’t really have detailed knowledge of situation in us, so it that works for you and your budget, i am gonna believe you.

14th_cylon,

the thing that actually happens when you get hit by such a large object going at such a speed is that either stars or birds start circling around your head

and what do you think these circling stars do to others? they just further hurt anything in close proximity. have you considered that?

14th_cylon,

Trump publicly praised and encouraged terrorism directed at his political opponent(s)

He may not have created the problem, but he has done a lot to exacerbate it.

Exhibit two: January 6

Twitter's lost 13% of its daily users and its rebrand has failed (www.bigtechnology.com)

The new data — comprehensive and definitive — should put to rest the countervailing narratives over Musk’s management of the app. Under his stewardship, X’s daily user base has declined from an estimated 140 million users to 121 million, with a widening gap between people who check the app daily vs. monthly. X’s...

14th_cylon,

i am afraid that consensus among general population increasingly is “words mean exactly what you want them to mean at any given moment”. welcome to post-factual age.

14th_cylon,

RSS allows you to subscribe on topic you actually like or want and ignore other stuff.

subscription on lemmy allows you the exact same thing. i don’t see how scrolling through your rss reader should be any different from scrolling through the lemmy app.

14th_cylon,

yeah, no.

the person who wrote “look at me, i am so cool, i am not using social networks” on a social network didn’t do that because they would be confused by new technology that didn’t exist generation ago, they did that because it worked for narrative they tried to present. and unfortunately it is more and more common and it is not a problem related to technology, just look at any political discussion.

so while what you said is true, it is not very relevant to the discussed problem.

14th_cylon,

Social media has always excluded forum like sites. Social media has a strict definition

social media has never excluded anything. it wouldn’t even be possible, and that is because there is no supreme authority that could issue some strict definition that would be legally binding for everyone 😆

14th_cylon, (edited )

Social media has a strict definition social media didn’t come about until after the advent of facebook so yes, by definition it excludes anything before then.

of course, sweetie. and just out of curiosity, what strict definition from some respectable authority other than you are you working with? 😂


social media, n. Websites and applications which enable users to create and share content or to participate in social networking.


social media, noun : forms of electronic communication (such as websites for social networking and microblogging) through which users create online communities to share information, ideas, personal messages, and other content (such as videos)



long story short, social media is more than facebook.

social media didn’t come about until after the advent of facebook so yes, by definition it excludes anything before then. Forum software existed for decades at that point.

yes, they did. decades before facebook. you just said that. what you probably wanted to say is that the term didn’t come out until… well here is the news for you. the term usually comes after the phenomenon it is describing, not the other way around. it doesn’t work like “hey guys, i have cool term - social media - now we just have to invent some” 🤣

anyone’s social media definition, except it seems like you

nice projection there. have fun.

14th_cylon,

You should feel bad for their support, which made very unwise decision and stayed operational…

Threads blocks searches related to covid and vaccines as cases rise (www.washingtonpost.com)

Meta acknowledged in a statement to The Washington Post that Threads is intentionally blocking the search terms and said that other terms are being blocked, but the company declined to provide a list of them. A search by The Post discovered that the words “sex,” “nude,” “gore,” “porn,” “coronavirus,”...

14th_cylon,

Other public health workers criticized the company’s decision and said its timing was especially poor, given the current coronavirus uptick.

shouldn’t public health workers prefer that general public uses some real news source instead of morons on fucking social network?

i am not even sure sure what the purpose of the article is. are they complaining about “censorship”, or is the article happy that it prevents spreading of misinformation?

14th_cylon,

Excuse me, sir, but… what?

14th_cylon,

well that doesn’t really answer the question “what is information on sexual activity and how would fucking car has it”… unless there is some indoor camera whose videos nissan secretly uploads.

14th_cylon,

What happens when the first ransomware is deployed by AI, on behalf of a user who just wanted tips on how to make more side income?

that’s not how it works… at all.

14th_cylon,

It isn’t how it works today. I’m talking about sometime in the distant (or near) future.

that would be very distant future. what we have today is machine learning. it is a powerful tool, but it is not in any way intelligent. it is not going to realize itself and start war with humanity. we wouldn’t know how to create something like that if we wanted.

if person uses that tool to generate some code that will cause damage, the consequences will be same as if that person writes that code entirely by hand. but it is not going to miraculously “go wild” and create some ethical dilemma where we wouldn’t know who is responsible.

14th_cylon, (edited )

iphone is clever marketing scheme to become a status symbol for a generation that no longer has a car as one.

14th_cylon,

maybe you would be better buying an actual camera. there are some really good compact cameras that aren’t necessarily heavy

14th_cylon,

Had it for 2 years or something and it has a crack throughout a good length of the screen otherwise I’d keep it even longer.

buying cheap screen covers from dealextreme, 20 pieces at a dollar per piece, is what kept my mi max 3 running for 5 years and counting. it still has enough performance for anything i do on it and i don’t plan throwing it away anytime soon.

14th_cylon,

you are talking about a car, right? because it doesn’t work well for iphone with their planned obsolescence… www.ifixit.com/News/11208/batterygate-timeline

14th_cylon, (edited )

omg! such mind-blowing and world-changing ideas like “they didn’t reinvent the wheel” and “The bottlenecks were identified and eliminated.”

i feel like i am at the mlm presentation. seriously, if you want to “learn more” invest the 6 minutes of your life better.

14th_cylon,

And guess since when it is done that way…

14th_cylon,

that is not answer to my question. but you knew that, didn’t you? 😜

14th_cylon,
14th_cylon,

Yours wasn’t a question, it was a statement

you know what i meant

wrong one

no

TCAS adherence wasn’t fundamentally changed after the accident in question

yes it was. fundamentally.

at the time of the accident there wasn’t any regulation that would state what to do in case of contradicting instructions from tcas and atc. different pilots may have been and have been told something else, or may have not been told anything at all and left to make split second decision when such event occurs.

about a year before uberlingen there was very similar incident - en.wikipedia.org/…/2001_Japan_Airlines_mid-air_in…. there were other incidents before and after.

So let’s come back to the original argument: following the erroneous instructions of atc over the TCAS resulted in the accident

yeah, no. BEING SENT ONTO COLLISION COURSE is what resulted in the accident.

yes, had they followed the tcas, the accident might have been avoided. but that is not what caused it. they already were in the shitty situation when they had to decide between tcas and atc.

situation is caused by something that creates the situation, not by all of the infinite number of random things that might have been done to avoid it or escape it when you are already in. otherwise we could get into absurd argument like “if someone haven’t got out of the bed in the morning, the situation might have been avoided as well”. which, while technically true, is also absurd nonsense and no one would seriously tried to argue that.

14th_cylon,

we could have agreed, if you weren’t saying dumb shit. because you are constantly saying dumb shit which is not true, or is only partially true so in the context of this discussion it doesn’t make sense, we DO NOT agree.

saying we agree when your opponent is telling you otherwise is the most pathetic attempt to avoid saying “ok, that probably wasn’t best phrasing on my part” i have ever seen. or you are really so dumb that you lack the capacity to understand it.

no matter which one, i am out of here, bye. you are now on my blocklist so i won’t be replying to you anymore. if you are truly interested why we still don’t agree i suggest rereading the whole conversation. especially to compare your first quote i reacted to with the one you used to pretend that “we agree” in your last answer.
