Thank you and @samokosik@lemmy.world for the explanation. I understand that the underlying communication protocol is the same; what's not clear to me yet is how I can follow communities from Mastodon or post from there – but of course there are good tutorials out there, just haven't found the time to go through them yet.
What I don't get at the moment is how a Lemmy community would look like on Mastodon. Maybe like a hashtag-topic? I agree with others here that the context and way of interacting within a (Lemmy) community is quite different from those of Mastodon exchanges. So I suppose I would be quite confused seeing the two together. Or maybe not – I haven't checked this, so there's half a prejudice on my part there.
If it's not too much of a burden, it's nice to know; at least while it's on the "0."-phase. Also because we can keep an eye open for bugs in the new versions when we're warned.
Sorry for the somewhat unrelated question: how's been your OpenSUSE experience with drivers, especially for Nvidia cards, touchpads, thunderbolt, trackpoints (if any), and with hi-res screen (if it applies)?
I've been thinking of giving it a try and was going to ask some of these questions in some forum. But maybe this is a good place to start as any.
No, that's my bad, thank you for correcting me! I only read the abstract, and they don't mention Bayesian methods there. Confidence intervals suffer from similar flaws as p-values and statistical significance.
It's great that they do analyses with other methods too indeed. Not, from my point of view, because they're more approachable – quite the opposite: people think in terms of probabilities-of-the-hypotheses, and p-values are not that (that's one source of their misuse). But because it helps the transition to other methods. It'd been nice if they had stated the results from all methods in the abstract. But that'll be for next time maybe!
I get what you're saying. From my point of view we're just playing on the semantics of "service" and "app" here. I had indeed the same problem with Google and Hangouts.
I agree that the wording is inaccurate, but some of the essence remains: the second "service" is forced on you. It's somewhat as if anyone with a Fakebook account also automatically had a Whatsapp or Instagram account, or some permutation of this.
It's just because I'm a newbie – having been using Linux for one year, and started with Ubuntu simply because that was shipped ready with my laptop. I haven't found the time to try any other distro yet, because of work & lack of time.
Indeed I remember I was thinking about moving to Linux years ago, exactly when the Amazon-Ubuntu craziness happened, so I thought "some other time".
Regarding snap & flatpak: I simply don't like the redundancy philosophy behind them.
