Well, just get an intern to put out traps and get some wild ones!

That comment seriously had me worried, a butcher producing 6 million dollars of promissory notes (!!!) would be concerning to say the least

The federation is not like email(besides in the technical details).

It is like a forum, it is software for mostly public/semi private posts.

The email equivalent would be a mailing list, and mailing lists have moderation.

I joined my Mastodon instance, just as I would join a mailing list, for the community and moderation. When I ran my own instance, I associated with instances with similar policies.

Now, I gave you a real response, and I would appreciate a response from you that is more than yelling out a logical fallacy like a grade schooler.

Social media is not email, not a platform for forming communities, so I will ignore all those questions.

You should think of social media- forums for example.

I expect my forum moderators to read my posts, ban people as needed, and to generally curate a community.

Your final argument is that blocking bad actors is ineffective- they could just move.

Well, if a bad actor did move- I would report them to the instance admin.

If their admin was not interested in dealing with them, I would consult my admin and discuss blocking that instance.

My experience with defederation is that in the real world, on the real network, that it is incredibly effective. I do NOT see bad actors on my instance.

This post is basically just someone whining that people were mean to them on Mastodon.

But other instances will be able to ban him! Heavens to Murgatroyd!

He should be able to talk and interact with anyone, regardless what they want!

Recycling is pretty much a scam, the first step of reduce-reuse-recycle is “reduce”.

One commenter said this legislation doesn’t make sense because they get a new phone every three years.

Even if they do, it would reduce demand if the phone continued to have parts and software for someone else to use.

A law requiring everyone to have replaceable batteries puts everyone on even ground- phones will continue to be exactly as thin as they can be.

There used to be an oauth flow for interacting with your home instance. I dont know when they got rid of it, maybe 4.0?

75% of the water is used by lawns dude. How much of the 25% remaining do you think is “alfalfa and almonds”?

I think this logic is still square-

Normally, each person puts one new driver on the road per-lifetime.

When you beta test a baby driving robot, you’re now at two new drivers per life! And the Tesla doesn’t seem to be learning faster than a human!

looks like this site redirects hacker news visitors to google

I’ve used extensions for this for years, on Chrome and Firefox.

I dont even need to save memory but it really improves the stability and performance of both browsers.

Why would you assume that there’s a record of it being sealed?

Usually that fact is sealed with your record

I wish this thing had a screenshot

You can’t send out an email asking “Do you NOT quit?”

Quitting is a process you do, you give a letter, or you tell your boss, or you stop showing up to work, anything else is termination

I don’t know how people use trackpads for anything but causal use anyway, even on a Mac I find them to be a constant strain on my psyche compared to using my mouse- I always have one on me if I have my laptop

Your local instance moderators choose are responsible for who their server interacts with. Ultimately this creates many segmented branching networks of federation, and with an appropriate instance, nazis won’t exist in your network.

How about just drop most of the frames? Let them animate and show users how it’s going every once in a while

There’s existing two wire Ethernet PoE converters that get you 60Mb and power over a doorbell wire.

This technology could just come built into these cameras which would be the responsible thing to do.

That was literally how phones worked on the beginning- AT&T had to be taken to court to stop it.

They’re referring to the file picker.

Gnome still doesn’t have an effective way to preview images when picking files, a feature from Windows 98.
