You shouldn't guess stuff that extreme. It trivializes whatever is found, whether it's that or less than that.

As far as I know, he's just a murderer, not a pedophile.

I don't remember most of the procedure. Drugs are good for that.

The prep was worse. Throwing up Gatorade with laxative powder wasn't fun.

It's not primarily about abortion rights. This vote was about preventing people from voting.

Each bullet point of the amendment was more fuckery than the last, and it starts with the 60% threshold.

More egregious than that was that it was going to move the signature requirement to get something onto the ballot from 5% of half the counties, to 5% of all the counties, significantly raising the cost to get anything accomplished (other than through the gerrymandered legislature).

Even more egregious, they wanted to eliminate the ten day period to fix any issues with the signatures. So you'd submit the signatures, and some rural county commissioner would say "this street belongs to the next county over". Now your signatures are invalid and you throw the entire effort into the trash.

If this passes, it would have pulled up the ladder. It would have prevented any other amendment supported by the people of Ohio.

Do you have a portable video camera that supports raid 1?

The use case for these drives is always a single point of failure. It's camera footage out in the field. You have to get it home before you have proper storage.

Do you have a dashcam for your vehicle? Do you have backups before you get the footage home?

I mean, in the screenshot the posts are less than ten minutes old. Saying "completely unmoderated" is a bit harsh for that kind of timeframe.

That'll be $3 for mentioning Sync. Please remit within 14 days.

!league@lemmy.ml just ain't there yet.

I know someone who's pirated books and then donated directly to the author or signed up for their Patreon for a few months.

Oh, I'm sure they were all doing stuff. It just wasn't necessarily stuff that's easy to monetize.

There's a reason Reddit's reliability has shot up over the past decade despite ever increasing popularity. Plus there's all the dumb shit they added like the bullshit awards.

Their ALL feeds will only have their individual servers unless their users go to the other instances and subscribe to communities. And only the communities they subscribe to will be fetched. But they'll be fetched for all users on your instance with only one sub.

(Technically they're pushed and not fetched.)

I don't understand how a million tiny instances is supposed to scale better than a few big instances.

Caching all the data from another instance is overhead. If you're not serving that to enough people, your instance is going to create more traffic than it reduces.

1-10 person instances can't possibly help. Maybe 10,000 users on an instance is valuable for scaling.

The way to make big money for the past 20 years hasn't been to sell better mousetraps. It's been to attract venture capital. Your revenue didn't matter as much as your size, and your size was determined by your employees and how much you spend.

It's why Uber, whose business model is entirely skimming off of taxi drivers who provided their own cars, wasn't profitable..

With the interest rate hikes, the investment money is drying up, and all these places are discovering they actually need to make money from their users now, and all that bloat is now a negative instead of a positive.

Basically we're all paying the price for the stupid fucking investment bubble that's existed for two decades. An investment bubble that existed because nobody was at the wheel driving the direction of this economy until now.

And of course the billionaires don't want to sacrifice shit, so they're making sure it all rolls downhill to their employees and their customers and doesn't touch their profits in the slightest.

The content has gotten significantly worse.

Maybe we should find an ad agency and crowd source funds to make slick advertisements for Lemmy and Mastodon. I feel like you should promote a specific instance for each though, and avoid the "join-mastodon" page.

The way the instances are split does not generally make much sense for the user. It's extremely arbitrary. We all know why, and that it's not a bad thing altogether, but it's bad for the user experience. That aspect of federation is not something we should promote.

And they'll have to do it without a network of billions of phones helping them.

You do you. But they really only violate your privacy if they're following you. And that's what the warning is about.

Wow. I'd be self hosting mumble for that. Or using Teams.

It's great for real time discussion. It's terrible for anything else.

It's IRC, not a forum.
