I wasn't aware of much defederation from .ml. I came here from .world because .world was defederating from too many other instances. I think what we really need is a new client that connects to multiple instances and does its own tracking of read articles and stuff like that. The Lemmy federation model was well intended, but I would say it has failed. Even at the popular instances, the fediverse is fragmented, which wasn't supposed to happen.
I would say look for a SIP carrier in Europe rather than someplace that makes you use a special app. Here in the US, twilio.com, voip.ms, and I think jmp.chat are popular. IDK about Europe or whether any of those operate there. I know you can get .au inbound numbers from Twilio but placing calls from there might be harder. What about getting an outbound VOIP service and phone number that's actually in Oz? You'd then be connecting with a SIP client from Europe which could result in janky audio, but it's something to try.
Google gets lots of your email either way, since many of your correspondents will be on gmail. I've been getting domains mostly from porkbun.com which offers free whois privacy. namesilo.com has it too.
Wait, FOURTEEN? I thought you were going to say 19 or something like that. Either way just be honest, you're taken, there's too much age difference, and (apparently) she's not your type. She should meet up with someone her own age.
Don't ever write any really private data to the SSD in cleartext. Use an encrypted file system. "Erase" by throwing away the key. That said, for modern fast SSD's the performance overhead of the encryption might be a problem. For the old SATA SSD in my laptop, I don't notice it.
In indoor crowded spaces, CO2 is often 2000 ppm or higher (background is now around 450). We might notice but just deal with it. In the past that meant getting sleepy at a lecture or that sort of thing, but today I'd consider it risky. I still wear an N95 mask whenever I'm in a public indoor space.
there are plenty of shy or anxious people in the US too!
as you say, being outgoing is a skill. 21 is an awkward and transitional age where you're still finding out things about yourself. As you get more comfortable it can get easier to talk to other people too.
CO comes from incomplete combustion and you'd usually only have detectors for it around gas heaters, generators, stuff like that. Maybe you meant carbon dioxide (CO2). I don't remember ever seeing one around a voting booth. I'd consider them a good idea though, not because CO2 poisoning is a serious concern per se, but because high CO2 means that you're breathing air that other people exhaled, increasing your exposure to airborne pathogens.
I'd say P vs NP is the easiest, Riemann hypothesis is understandable in the sense that its statement is not too technical, but understanding why it is important is another matter. NS smoothness is probably understandable to the average math or physics nerd who has seen some PDE's. The rest require developing more machinery to even state the problems.
" In this blog, Jennifer Veitch and Manuel Spitschan introduce the Light for Public Health Initiative - an international effort to translate scientific knowledge on light and health into practical guidance. With growing evidence of how light affects our physiology and well-being, this initiative aims to make healthy lighting a public health priority. "
This looks fairly interesting. Wish the summary was included with the post.
It takes a bit of practice. A few minutes of instruction can show you how it works, but then you will want to actually practice (maybe an hour or so) on some quiet roads before driving in traffic.
Cool, yeah, the digits themselves are at most 0.5 byte each ;). I don't know enough about the higher level algorithm to say exactly how the rest of the storage is being used. There is a book called "Pi and the AGM" about pi computation and similar algorithms that is supposed to be really good, but it looks over my head mathematically.
