Mastodon and lemmy handle this in slightly different ways. Mastodon (according to the link) replicates media on every instance while lemmy (mostly) only replicates thumbnails. That means a popular post doesn't cause load for one server on mastodon but does on lemmy. But Mastodon has a higher aggregate cost due to all the replicated data, which is what the linked proposal solves by making it sublinear.

If the torrent is instance to instance I don't see any real benefit (and instance to client is infeasible). On Mastodon side you still have data duplication driving storage costs and bandwidth usage regardless of whether it's delivered via direct http or torrent. On the lemmy side it wouldn't gain much (asymmetric load is based on subscription count and so not very bursty) but would add a lot of non-determinism and complexity to the already fragile federation process.

Conventional solutions like cache/CDN/Object Storage or switching to a shared hosting solution (decoupled from instances like your link proposes) seems like a more feasible way to address things.

I wish it were real. Pepsi-milk just doesn't hit the same.

I mean it's better than your kid going filterless and leaving the turd in the pool.

Because "fuck" is the objectionable part

Ah it's a setting for Text To Speech functionality. Guess they replaced there being just a male and a female voice with there being a list of different voices each identified by a name.

Such shade against those of us who have had wisdom teeth extracted.

Both decks? For prime quality you hold your walkman up against a world war II era radio to record!

I was not expecting that. Trump continues to shock.

I wish I could drop 2024

Oh wow newsite comments are always fun.

Jewish voters vote for leftists by a vast margin. They must switch their vote to Trump and Conservatives. Otherwise they are doomed.

Trump for Prime Minister!

No

Wasabi Pea no peeing inside!

As I'm burning I'm the happiest I've ever been. I'm finally mammal.

It's not. The 5-10 figure is originally from an extremely unscientific study from the 1940s meant to spawn distrust of "German" cockroaches. While it absolutely happens the real numbers are much lower. More frequently they enter the anus.

You could hire a team of security experts to audit it for you

Another fun fact, basic means something is alkaline. Coffee and milk are acidic so you're infact not a basic bitch for your pumpkin spice latte

If you look at the insta, I'd say just horny "art"

Similar idea as here but with... Let's say... chocolate milk.

That alt-text is lacking a few minor details.

Carefully timed explosives placed in the middle of the moon causing it to split in half, one half going away from Earth and the other half going right into the Atlantic coast. Problem solved.
