How did Lemmy World become the default instance?

World was already the biggest by far when I first started lurking back in July, and it’s just getting more dominant. Before, there was quite some diversity in the distribution of generic communities, but nowadays the vast majority of posts that reach the top are from over there....

LufyCZ,

The piracy community was unblocked quite soon after

LufyCZ, (edited )

Well, it’s a disorder, it’s right in the name.

If people “liked” it, they wouldn’t be taking meds to help them function.

I’m not hating, just think we should take things for what they are

Edit: sorry, thought we were talking about ADHD

LufyCZ,

Buried highways would be insanely expensive, and in the case of invasion, one well placed shot would completely kill logistics for the defenders as much as it would for the invaders, so probably not the best idea to rely on those

LufyCZ,

A lot of the money is probably sunk into ecological surveys, permits, bureaucracy overall

LufyCZ,

The moon, probably

LufyCZ,

Give it a month or two, they’ll break

In what world does a VPN need access to Camera and Bluetooth? (i.imgur.com)

I am fully aware of what vpn services to use and not. I am not using Express VPN, I am simply doing research for a master thesis, when I came across these results from Express VPN. If you have any ideas or corrections, please let me know why a VPN provider would need to have access to these permissions....

LufyCZ,

AirVPN

LufyCZ,

So you’re saying they might not need a new engine and all they have to do is rewrite half of the old one?

LufyCZ,

Also a valid solution to the poop on the carpet problem.

Just saying

LufyCZ,

Knife, scissors, stuff like that probably

LufyCZ,

lmao you’re so wrong on ads being more profitable than premium, especially on a per-user basis

According to this you can expect to make around $18/1000 views. That’s with 55% going to the creator and 45% to Google. Which means that Google makes around $14.5 per 1000 views.

Coincidentally, that’s also rougly the price of YouTube Premium. Are you telling me that you watch a thousand videos per month?

LufyCZ,

Not sure where you’re getting your masks from but mine sure aren’t covering my whole face.

Can see the argument for skiing masks and shit though

LufyCZ,

I saw a picture of the lemonade dispenser herw and the caffeine content was shown quite clearly

LufyCZ,

Honestly, they’d be stupid not to take it.

Imagine how much you could do with a billion. It’d perpetually sustain the organization, it’d allow them to hire translators and writers, resulting in better content for all of us.

Hell, I’d take it, and 99.9% of people on this planet would too.

LufyCZ,

If the deal were real of course

LufyCZ,

It’s honestly kinda perplexing.

Everyone keeps talking about taxing the rich but when someone offers to give a nonprofit we all love a billion dollars it’s suddenly the worst thing on the planet.

LufyCZ,

Worst case, they can keep chugging along without any changes, except maybe stopping the donation “nag”.

LufyCZ,

It gives them a loot more than ad watchers though. Especially on longer videos (it’s based on watch time)

LufyCZ,

They are also often subsidized with interest from people who don’t pay their cards off

LufyCZ,

Yes, pure html pages are so much better and nicer to use!

LufyCZ,

Hell yeah

LufyCZ,

hypocrites?

LufyCZ,

Wouldn’t fit very well into something like a smartphone though

LufyCZ,

What a deranged conclusion

LufyCZ,

That’s the thing though - they deliberately made the product crappier after people already bought it.

Think this applies if Denuvo is included from the beginning, but it wasn’t here

LufyCZ,

I’ve heard that Baldur’s Gate 3 was a massively successful launchday title, though it’s not my cup of coffee.

There are still good games around, just unfortunately not the majority of them

LufyCZ,

If it was the other way around:

Texas

Who doesn’t carry a gun to a wedding?

LufyCZ,

Maybe they are pushing for higher tips because they aren’t paid enough?

LufyCZ,

Yeah so what I’m saying is if they got paid enough, same or more than what they’re getting with tips, we wouldn’t need to tip.

LufyCZ,

I wouldn’t be so sure, at least yet. In Europe, everything’s connected, so they’ll just end up selling it to other countries.

Can imagine that it’s better than selling it to random local companies for next to nothing

LufyCZ,

How about a rock the size of an F-35?

LufyCZ,

They do, unfortunately

LufyCZ,

I had three cards from Kingston and SanDisk fail on me quite regularly while using the Pi.

M.2 / external storage is definitely the way to go

LufyCZ,

The water does get back into the ocean sooner or later, at least most of the time, see - rivers

LufyCZ,

So much better

LufyCZ,

Why bother with simulations of governance systems and not governance itself at that point?

I do understand “the risk” of putting AI being the steering wheel but if you’re already going to be trusting it this far, the last step probably doesn’t actually matter.

LufyCZ,

Source for the revenue? Was only able to find figures in the $50-70bil range.

Profit $20-30bil.

Do you understand the case enough to make a more accurate judgement based on the relevant laws? I don’t, but believe that the court does.

LufyCZ,

Consider the alternative

LufyCZ,

Yes

LufyCZ,

Then you’d be wrong

LufyCZ,

Well articulated, good job

LufyCZ,

$350 in hardware sure, hardware that someone had to design and especially nowadays with Apple Silicon, that shit doesn’t come cheap

LufyCZ,

They use ARM now, which is super efficient, the laptops last forever on battery.

If there’s one thing Apple’s done right, it’s Apple Silicon

LufyCZ,

They’ve built a translation layer in for compatibility, though it’s not perfectly fast, it’s more than good enough from what I’ve heard.

It being Unix based definitely helps, though don’t doubt Apple wouldn’t have been able to deal with it if that weren’t the case.

The chips really shine in laptops, I’d say desktops are a bit weaker, unless you’re doing something heavily optimized (Final Cut Pro f.e.).

The biggest win is energy consumption, the difference is insane, I recommend you look up a benchmark or two, can range from 2 to 10x more efficient.

I honestly don’t agree though that they’re 3x the price of comparable products, the new Macbook Airs are pretty solid pieces of hardware for an okay sum of money. It really depends on your workload though, if you’re gaming, you’re gonna have a terrible time, if you’re a dev / work in the browser / do some light editing you’re gonna love the battery life and perf’s not gonna hold you back.

LufyCZ,

Windows on ARM is really incomparable to MacOS on ARM, it’s like comparing a 15yos Hello World to a senior engineer’s 10yo project.

Yes, for simple web browsing ChromeOS is just fine, but you can do so much more with a fullblown system. The performance is also in another league.

I honestly would say that the 16GB mbAir is good value, if it fits your use case (no gaming / heavy x86-only programs).

Don’t forget Apple makes a shitton of money from services (AppStore, iCloud…), which often make a lot more money than hardware (so Sammy is at a disadvantage here).

I’m not trying to convince you the Apple’s awesome, I don’t think that myself either (on the contrary), but their chips just are pretty awesome

LufyCZ,

Yea coz that’s boring and for nerds

LufyCZ,

I was mostly kidding, though it depends on the problem itself - if I need an explanation for a function argument, no point testing shit if the docs answer it in 15 seconds. If it’s something more solution-y, I might do some testing before consulting the papers

LufyCZ,

So you bought a bike?
