You almost got it…

Ml is a ticking time bomb. Mali is starting to take back its domain and lemmy.ml could go offline at any time. OP specifically noted that too.

Showerthoughts in a nutshell. Even when I went through and verified every rule was correct it was still removed. Modmail just responded “well you broke one of the rules” and would never explain which one or how.

Had us in the first half, not gonna lie.

Thank you… I hate all the people who are “we’ll permanently destroy the earth and it’ll never recover!” crowd. Maybe for us it’ll be too inhospitable and we won’t survive, but nature is surprisingly resilient. From bacteria that can eat oil and plastic, to entire generations of flora and fauna living in irradiated landscapes, it will adapt and be here long after we’re gone.

I know too many devs to have my body require a firmware update.

Thanks everyone. It sounds like I’m gonna wait for the 15 (non-pro) to come out and get that!

I’m the same way. I would love if there was a 15 mini. I’d consider the 13 but USB-C is one of my main drivers and the fact it’s already 2 generations behind.

Question for all of you all. I’m switching from an Android since my phone is 3 years old and there is certain things iPhone supports that Android doesn’t. The USB-C switch was the final straw for me. Should I get the 15 or 15 Pro? I’m by no means a power user (Sync, Mail, texting, an occasional video), but I like to keep my phone for about 3 years. Do I future proof and get the Pro, or save money and get the regular.

Hear me out on this one…

Trump signs the pledge. Since the RNC is a private body they can technically choose anyone they want and choose someone not Trump. Trump sues them bringing the question of the RNC/DNC into play. Trump further runs independent causing the RNC to sue him to keep him off the ballots (again also putting the RNC/DNC into question). While things work their way in the courts, Republicans have a split ticket problem.

That’s a problem when you have one group trying to do what is remotely morally right and another who doesn’t care and wants to “win” at any cost.

You went Tiananmen Square on it.

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.

Nation favors local incumbent, news at 11…

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

Control is another thing. I can’t tell you the amount of execs I’ve heard say “they’re losing control of their company” or “I don’t feel I have the same control over my people”. It’s crazy that they think that. What do they think the past 3 years have been when they’ve gotten record profits “oh, but our profits would be even better if we had people back in the office”. Sadly no amount of data will override the entrepreneurial “it could always be more” what if that they throw out.

Keep going back much, much further. I remember hearing that phrase back in the early 2000s, and wouldn’t doubt it if if was referenced as early as 1999.

10-15? That’s childs play. I honestly read probably an order of magnitude more than that.
