I have a bodybuilder friend who was like the most popular guy during the first year of med school because everyone would use him as a model to study muscles cuz if you touched him you could feel a lot of the different muscles.

Thorium is the Fusion of Fission.

Since the 60’s we’ve been told that thorium tech is just around the corner and it will replace uranium.

I already had onion breath by the time I saw the comm name.

“We found the fossil halfway up Virginia”

“WHO THE FUCK IS VIRGINIA AND WHY DOES SHE HAVE A FOSSIL INSIDE HER??”

I expect better from a popular FOSS tool being used by privacy aware people though.

nope

This thing Anubis always flags me for some reason. I use mullvad and safari (ios) with some add and tracker blocking extensions.

(Because technically birds are dinosaurs, not a relative).

Copyright law also doesn’t allow them to download the entirety of a piracy database of books. But here we are, they clearly don’t care about copyright law.

I think it’s a waste tbh. Like it’s one of those capitalist things of “well its not profitable to sell so lets destroy them”, when anything made for the good of the people would’ve seen a massive opportunity to distribute books to people for free!

Me trying to hold both truths at once that Street view is an absolutely fantastic tool and that I hate google so damn much.

What is ios 26? I thought we were on ios18??

But this is assuming private messages no?

When 99% of the public traffic is on posts that will federate to most servers, this model becomes irrelevant.

For Activitypub, a weakness is that the server has to host all the visible content to the server. So for example if lemmy got really big, and you wanted to host a tiny server but are subscribed to most lemmy comms, your server ends up hosting and fetching a copy of everything posted in these communities, which can add up to A LOT, in terms of network usage, and computational power. (For example see the debacle where an Australian sever (I think aussie.zone) struggled with this and was weeks behind fetching content from lemmy.world since so much content comes from that instance).

This probably would scale pretty terribly if it got anywhere near the size of reddit.

ATProto gives a scalable solution to this (but comes with tradeoffs). Where you can create your own “instance” PDS (Personal Data Server), without hosting all the posts federated to you, since this is hosted by a “relay” which does most of the heavy lifting computationally. So it ends up with a solution that looks more centralised (since there is less incentive to host relays, so fewer relays), but also much more friendly to people who wanna host their own “PDS” and therefore control their data. This is also very helpful with scalability and solves some of the weird federation quirks activitypub has (ie. you can’t see a lemmy community or mastodon account until someone on your instance subscribes or follows it).

Pretty sure this is making fun of conservatives freaking out about her, not of her directly.

This is why net fishing is so problematic (apart from obvious environmental conserns and bycatch).

Stun your fish people. Don’t let their blood clot and lungs collapse while still conscious for multiple minutes. It’s cruel.

40 months is unusually short!

Mine is nearing a decade of age!

none of the companies accept a trade in because by the time i buy a new phone my phone is usually a decade old.

Actually @poVoq@slrpnk.net was wondering if possible to recover my account since it’s pretty obviously my alt. If not possible, no worries, totally understand.
