Interesting solution 👍 Curious to see how this plays out!

Fair points. I’m warming up to the idea of making votes public so that people don’t have a false sense of privacy. I wish votes were actually private, but maybe it’s not a big deal if your account can’t be easily traced back to you in real life.

ActivityPub can’t evolve? Is there some insurmountable technical blocker?

I suspected this would be an issue and have avoided voting on controversial posts. But if everyone did as I do, there would be no open discussions about pressing topics.

It’s confusing enough understanding how federation works for the less technically inclined. I don’t think we should also expect them to figure out which instance is privacy-conscious. Privacy of votes should be baked into Lemmy. Even kbin users shouldn’t be able to see it.

If users want to advertise their approval/disapproval of posts they can use public comments in tandem with private votes.

Incidently, I used the painter’s tape today for the first time! Worked just fine :)

It’s probably supposed to be a Godzilla-like creature.

Aren’t we apex predators? We still have fight/flight/freeze instincts, so my unscientific guess is lions are scaredy cats.

ETA: mandatory don’t mess with lions you will die

Don’t give them ideas. If they had a reasonable number of ads, it wouldn’t be a problem, but they are absolutely out of control.

Dual booting is also an option.

Costs €5 but you can only play it once

Jokes aside, cool concept :)

I confronted someone for littering and with a completely sincere face they said they’re creating jobs for the people cleaning the streets 💫 so does that mean murderers are creating jobs for homicide detectives?

After carrying this in my pocket for a few days, my thoughts so far:

• Sliding a straw over the tape as a sheath hasn’t proved necessary so far. Doing so would add bulk, making the deployment of adjacent tools difficult or requiring a reduction in the amount of tape stored on the bit driver.

• The thick gorilla tape makes it impossible to open the adjacent pliers without first opening the bit driver because the pivot point of the pliers sticks out. Putting the thicker tape closer to the bit (swapping positions of the painter’s tape and gorilla tape) may alleviate this, though I’ll have to try it to confirm. Otherwise, I’ll have to reduce the amount of tape stored lower on the bit driver.

Are you talking about IRC or Usenet?

I feel like an algorithm that sucks you in is what makes a social media platform popular. But an algorithm is part of what makes social media so toxic.

I love that the fediverse doesn’t have ulterior motives, but that might be why it never becomes mainstream. I’d choose smaller crowd over toxic tho.

Isn’t chromium open source? How are the APIs a secret?

Quite an interesting flashlight. Lots of different modes and head mountable.

Better wear a marsk.

I’ll show myself out…
