They're not discussing quietly, everyone can hear them, and they want to be heard.

I like to be careless about my posessions, border control is the least of my worries.
yes i should have titled this better.

Bad title, The threat is that my laptop will get stolen, murphy's law allways wins.
How do I increase the chance to recover?

Thieves are stupid too, they will just use the default installed windows.

I allways promise myself to be better and not do stupid things, experience thought me that that only works 95%. I like a plan B, even if it does not work; at least I tried.

That's actually a good plan. after a "downgrade" fom macbook to thinkbook I do have a lock connector.

They are "supposed" to make quit burning tobacco. That's where the harm is.
Nicotine alone does not cause cancer.

Not at this stage.
Lemmy grew too fast, got many more eyes.
Step 1 is getting a security focus group selected from the people who contribute code to lemmy.

Just like the admins and coders volonteer their time, security specialists will too, money might be needed, but that is not in the the first steps.

This is just getting too big too fast.

Lots of things change when you grow too fast, one of them is that any stupid failure will be found and exploited.
The project will mature and get a better security process, that has nothing to do with politics.

OC Assuming boost stays as some sort of a super-upvote/share combo alongside regular up/downvote buttons, here's a UI idea on how to merge it into one unified voting system. App animation + web block mockup

I heard that votes have been changed to behave closer to how people would expect, and boost is staying here as well. So I had an idea how to bring it all together in the interface....

Maybe even remove the scoring from boost, It just makes things so complicated that a retweet has a side-effect

static,

Yes, the double upvote is secundary to the retweet.

The retweet is understood by the fediverse, for example mastodon. The double upvote only happens in kbin

I would like to see some numbers first. Donations work fine for mastodon.

Edit : here are mastodon.world financials https://blog.mastodon.world/

So when scaling up

You expect that : costs per user rise and donations per user drop?

I expect that: costs per user drop, donations per user stay the same, and external subsidies rise.

And even then there could be donated vs award servers.
I prefer to focus on the donated ones.

It was a bit mean/dishonest from me to frame costs for you.
my guess of dounations just does not match yours.

static,

You do not, awards do not propogate to other servers.

Andere overheids instellingen:

Duitsland https://social.bund.de/
EU https://social.network.europa.eu/explore

Beide missen een beetje toegankelijkheid, bijvoorbeeld een startpagina waar alle pubicerende instanties te zien zijn.

Met kbin een beetje, maar ik denk niet dat ze dat in de komende 6 maanden verbeteren. daarna wel

It's hiding kbin magazines. There should be no difference between kbin magazines and lemmy communities when searching and exploring.

And they could fix this if they wanted to.

static,
static avatar

It's possible, but there is no reason at all to have the kbin magazines separate from the communities.
They all federate the same, so why not list them all the same.

static,

For communities they both work the same, hey we're talking here right?

That would be a good argument for a filter instead.

What does defederating from Meta's Threads.net actually accomplish?

Afaik, whenever an Activitypub instance has defederated from another it has always had to do with some combination of bad user behavior, poor moderation, and/or spam. Are the various instance admins who have decided to preemptively block threads.net simply convinced that these traits will be inevitable with it? Is it more of a...

/d/ is a domain, not an instance

If you look at the activity of https://kbin.social/d/threads.net those are hyperlinks to threads.net

How to de-radicalize my mom's youtube algorithm?

She’s almost 70, spend all day watching q-anon style of videos (but in Spanish) and every day she’s anguished about something new, last week was asking us to start digging a nuclear shelter because Russia was dropped a nuclear bomb over Ukraine. Before that she was begging us to install reinforced doors because the...

My normal YT algorithm was ok, but shorts tries to pull me to the alt-right.
I had to block many channels to get a sane shorts algorythm.

"Do not recommend channel" really helps

We can do more, next year we can do 5!

What if Biden gets a heart attack at the worst possible moment and can no longer run? It's not unlikely given his age.
