  • PeerTube looks quite promising with its decentralised model. Surely it will never be perfect. But decentralisation is essencial. Also because the types of videos I like to see in YouTube either are monetised by themselfs in some way. Or are not monetised at all. YouTube does not seem necessary for those creators.

  • damaging homeowners and the broader financial system in the country.

    Or, showing that current homeowners overpaid, opening the door to new homeowners and allowing the broader financial system to have losses we all knew were possible.

  • Please,

    discussing a complex geopolitical situation

    Is not

    telling their users to be nice to others and not break the rules of other instances

    You are not being consistent.

    Also, an admin detailing how to think about a complex geopolitical situation is not discussing.

  • Thanks for offering your perspective. Maybe I'm too cynical. Or maybe I'm reading to much into the Russia-Ukraine-Nato thing.

    In any case, at current information, I can both accept the defederation, or just teaching people that they can choose and block specific users and communities.

  • From reading that thread it is not just a socialist instance.

    They are instructing their members on how to relate to others, how to react to outsiders comments in their communities, and how to protect themselves from outsiders opinions. To me that sounds like cult level brainwashing techniques.

    Another word that comes to mind is brigading.

  • The Hexbear thread on federation: https://www.hexbear.net/post/280770 -- read it yourself.

    To me it reads like a plan to increase their reach with preventive instructions on how to avoid being 'influenced' by outsiders' opinions.

    My guesstimation is that it is a disinformation machine based on useful idiots.

  • I had also been using Reddit for over a decade. I'm only now realising how early I got on Reddit's boat. Was mostly just a lurker but, apart from WhatsApp, the only social media, and main news source (tad cringe, yea). Your comment hist made me think where is the /c/atheism around here. PS: I keep coming here almost everyday. If you ever feel you need to reach out to a stranger, likely across the world, drop me a DM.

  • Yea, I did assume something else. Assumptions are always a problem; they seem so obvious...

    Thanks for your considerate answer.

    I don't think the cluster ammo willl be used any other way than with a howitzer. I don't think there is a shortage of production of grenades. A shortage of shells, yes, and it might just be to mitigate that. Might. That would not be great news for Ukraine.

  • The math you're using is a tad hyperbolic. 1 to 3% of 88 bomblets is not 2-3 duds, in fact it is less than 1 to 3. If you're thinking about 10 shells we can do math with better precision, and the result is less than 30, it is 9 to 26. Nevertheless, the failure rate I've seen elsewhere is 2.76%, so for 10 shells that is 24 duds. At this stage you might think 24, 30, it's almost the same.. But also dud bomblets are not equivalent to mines. On the short term they are most definitely not like mines. On the long term, on the context of managing their danger, they can be thought of as mines, like mines left on a field for a long time. Some blow up, some don't. Nobody wants them on their yard.

    In all cases I'd use them in my yard if it helped me fight a murderous sadistic thief out of my stuff. If only just to disincentivize their murderous sadistic thieving actions from attacking my neighbours and other people.

  • F-droid is great. But I wish f-droid had some kind of rating system so that I could use it more.
