Yeah, I don't think asking communities that are already fairly small on Reddit to create the same community on Lemmy was a good idea.
For something like this it'd be best to start with a single community for the whole broad topic (like, ImaginaryStuff). Hell, Reddit used to be a "single subreddit" originally. And the niche subreddits didn't pop up until fairly recently where they were actually able to entice enough people to use them.
I also noticed a significant decrease in quality of content on Reddit on the subs I used to enjoy. The people who used to post and comment on there just simply don't, and garbage posts get to the top of my front page much more. I consciously decide to use it less (even though my mobile app of choice, Relay, still works for free for now), and it's not even all that hard.
Not really; login mechanisms are a separate thing. OAuth already exists. You only need Fediverse software to accept OAuth from anywhere and to provide it to others.
The migration part is IMO harder, but not necessarily by much. I don't know of any fediverse software that'd allow it though.
No, but you can download Rutkovski's art, learn from it how to paint in his exact style and create art in that style.
Which is exactly what the image generation AIs do. They're perhaps just a bit too good at it, certainly way better than an average human.
Which makes it complicated and morally questionable depending on how exactly you arrive at the model and what you do with it, but you can't definitively say it's copyright infringement.
Theft, by definition, requires you to deprive someone of something. That simply cannot happen when you copy stuff. That's why it's called copyright infringement and not theft.
You can only steal art by physically stealing an art piece - then and only then it's theft.
Yep... And you can't donate to Firefox development. You'll only fund the nonprofit and its goals, the money doesn't go to Mozilla Corporation who do the actual development.
They can, but the setup is still non-trivial and full auto landing capability isn't used all that much even if technically available. It also isn't just the capability of the aircraft, it requires a shitton of supporting infrastructure on the ground (airport) and many airports don't support this.
That would be equivalent to installing new intersections where you'd also have a broadcast of what the current signals are for each lane, which would help self-driving cars immensely (and regular cars eventually too, with assistive technologies to help drivers drive more safe), but that's simply not a thing yet.
There are plenty of applications where a room-temperature superconductor would still be amazing even with low max current. It could, for example, boost computing power immensely.
Firefox doesn't even accept donations. Mozilla Foundation does, which is a related nonprofit, but it crucially does not fund any firefox development and legally cannot do so.
Autopilot in aircraft is actually kinda comparable, it still needs a skilled human operator to set it up and monitor it (and other flight controls) all of the time. And in most modes it's not even really all that autonomous - at most it follows a pre-programmed route.
We need assistive technologies that protect us, but if at any point the driver is no longer driving the car manufacturer needs to take full responsibility.
It's still very much a thing and works fairly well to protect high quality DRM content. People forgot it's a thing because a regular person is rarely in a situation where it would prevent them from doing something.
It makes sense; OSM is a great source of mapping data, but it misses POIs like businesses and whatnot. If I understand it correctly they all want to chip in to make a huge combined dataset that has the potential to rival Google Maps, especially if they all use it and allow people to contribute as easily as you can do on Google Maps.
The EU isn't some magical force that only does good for privacy. They had their own fair share of scandals and pretty much all regulations regarding privacy and data collection conveniently omit duties and responsibility for governments and such. They just realized that in an information age information is power. And they want that power for themselves and not some large state-like corporations. Which can be a win for us, sometimes, but it's not a silver bullet.
This in particular is actually something they might like, because it would allow them to ensure "safe" environment for ... whatever they want. With convenient tracking and anything else should they desire so.
