Shit my dude

You don’t tell them.

Containers addon. And it has bookmarks decades old. Remove both and I wouldn’t care much. I’m also more familiar with it. It feels more natural due to this. I feel more comfortable on it. More at home, less scared.

Except for me 😎 I am cringe

I think this is false but I don’t have information to refute it other than my own experience. I used to write a dream diary. When I did, I remembered my dreams almost every time I woke up. Not just half the time or 80% but more like 96% of the time. And it was very detailed with multiple dreams tied to each other.

My ISP doesn’t give a fuck so I don’t use ISP-friendly tools. Not even a VPN. Only for geoblocking.

Just pirate it off https://1337x.to when it comes out. People rip things pretty fast if they’re popular.

I have an addon that makes watched videos gray and adds a WATCHED tag to them. Makes it more satisfying to browse, knowing you won’t get tricked into wasting time rewatching something. Now you can waste time watching NEW useless stuff.

Nope. Can’t understand the reasoning behind “some dude has always existed, you can’t see him though or touch him or anything, but he created everything! Also only we few know about this and only recently! All the other beliefs are wrong.” Where would a giant fairy come from? No idea.

Spent a good while searching for evidence as a doubting kid. Didn’t find anything. I realized the absurdity later on of believing in ghosts and psychics and magic when one of the defining qualities is how they can’t be recorded or even reproduced scientifically.

God loves you, watches you, judges you and can do anything, but he won’t move a leaf on the floor to tell a crying bullied kid to hold on to hope, that he exists. God is such a human-centric thing anyway. Humans are specks of nothingness, a million years in a tiny planet in a sea of infinite time and space. But yeah some dude created us specifically and we look like him!

I just realized I’m on the God account. 🙏😐 (God wants people to doubt him so he can send them to hell without feeling bad about it?!?!)

does alexandrite still do server-side authentication? or does it even do it?

Why u swearing things to me 🤔

ah yes, those highy sought after delights of being restricted, linux is not bad, it’s just like a very strict parent that takes away all your gaming consoles and tells you it’s for your own good, and you know what? i’m happy to be violated everyday by the whims of such a helicopter parent, it’s a feature!!! If possible I would like daddy Linux to remove all my rights to music, movies, entertainment, and leave me only a code editor, a console and a chatroom with my employer, that way I would only work night and day to make money, it would be heaven to be trapped into a world where my only possible thoughts are of code and work.

Couldn’t have dual monitors due to Nvidia drivers not working correctly. Couldn’t play Overwatch. Deep Rock Galactic ran very badly and slowly. I’ve used Linux in the past for years but it’s just not good on a gaming laptop.

Of course. Your idea is THE idea. You CANNOT get mass adoption without a minimal amount of hops. You won’t get the hordes of pirates running around reading wikis on how to configure their router for piracy and how to get an i2p provider and how to get an index etc.

Torrenting right now is so broadly adopted because you just download a Torrenting client, click the magnet, click OK and you’re good to go.

If you HAD to set up port forwarding, some magnet handling register in windows preferences, just those two would stop the bulk majority of pirates. And that’s not even 1/4 of what you have to do to use i2p correctly.

It’s not even prosecuted where I live. So I couldn’t care less if it’s clearnet or whether my IP address is public.

Fun thoughts and all but that isn’t the reason why they’re blocking it. It’s because Facebook is bad. Corporation, big, embrace, expand, extinguish, evil. Plenty of explanations around about why these blocks happened. However you’re also right. If it were very small like a 15k people instance and it didn’t carry corporations inside maybe they’d consider not blocking.

I don’t think there are fully distributed social networks out there today. Even nostr, a Twitter alternative with a basis in blockchain, has the issue that if a “relay” you used to post content goes down, that post disappears. The problem is that all of that data needs to be kept somewhere, and there’s a lot of content to keep.

That’s exactly how Hive works by the way, each witness has a copy of the blockchain software, and to run a node and earn money from it, they must “sync” the blockchain and that means running all the blocks software to reproduce all blocks one by one. This process can take hours or days to finish. But afterwards, any node or group of nodes can die and as long as one witness node exists for every microservice (main chain, hive engine side chain for tokens, some metadata chain and there’s a few other things ppl have invented idk what for), all data is safe. So as you say, it’s expensive and a bit crazy to require everyone to host all the content available but when done it gives some safety to your data.

Hive is not federated tho. It’s one thing, just hosted by many with 100% redundance.

Your best bet to protect your account is to self-host.

I was thinking of doing that, setting up my own server, but for some reason all the communities on the server I’m on (sh.itjust.works) are very small and the ones on lemmy.ml grow a lot, so it makes me think that it’s much harder for people to find communities hosted on smaller servers than on big ones? Maybe I’m misreading the reasons.> Your best bet to protect your account is to self-host.
