  • Maybe. Time will tell, but either way Lemmy won too. And me. Having a better time here; there's at least the potential for meaningful discourse here unlike the firehouse of pointless pseudo-conversation on the larger subreddits.

  • The government doesn't go out of it's way to give you one, but they usually aren't difficult to get. Driver's licenses and passports are commonly used as ID. Many states will also issue a state ID card, though the process for getting one varries by state.

    Driving, or at least being able to drive, is so ubiquitous that nearly everyone over 16 has some kind of driver's license. That's especially true of rural areas like Arkansas.

    For these kinds of things "official document" typically means a driver's license, passport, state ID, military ID, etc. Anything issued by a state or federal government that has your name, date of birth, and photo.

  • Coming from the southeast, definitely still a lot of Trump banners and bumper stickers, though less so now. I expect them to be more common as the election gets closer.

    Hard to call it far right anymore. Conspiracy theorists and hate are more or less the norm in conservative circles, so far as I can tell.

  • I bought sync pro and have sync for lemmy installed; there's no way to activate pro right now, and afaik that option is not coming.

    Presently you can buy a permanent ad removal in-app for $20, you can subscribe to sync ultra for $17/yr, or you can use it free with ads.

    It's a good app, and the dev absolutely deserves to make money. If I understand correctly, developing sync is his full-time job. The prices are definitely steeper than with sync for reddit, but Lemmy is a much smaller community. He can't necessarily expect as many sales.

  • They aren't pearl clutching, they're stating the obvious fact that humanity is pumping out solar panels as fast as macroeconomic (or perhaps geographic) forces will allow.

    Monocrystalline panels take quite a lot of pure silicon, which may not technically be rare earth, but it is in quite high demand right now.

  • They do keep context to a point, but they can't hold everything in their memory, otherwise the longer a conversation went on the slower and more performance intensive doing that logic check would become. Server CPUs are not cheap, and ai models are already performance intensive.
