Aside from being tone deaf, I think this is bad advice. Common breakfast foods are fairly cheap comparatively and I'm pretty sure most nutritionists recommend eating something for breakfast to kickstart your metabolism. If I were skipping/reducing a meal, it would be lunch.
It's not an app issue, you'll notice the same behavior in any Lemmy client. Once you're subscribed successfully, new content should be coming in normally unless, again, there is an instance/federation issue.
I was able to get video streaming with audio working on Discord using pipewire, but it was a massive pain in the ass and somewhat unreliable. I don't have a lot of experience with Jitsi, but I trust others' recommendation there
I don't know exactly what the percentage of new laptops that can use USB-C charging is, but it's a pretty large percentage. My Lenovo Yoga came with a USB-C charger and that's all it uses for charging. That said, I actually do agree with you that this is not really a problem for laptops and IMHO it's often a lot easier to fix/replace a broken DC barrel type charging port than a USB port on a laptop because a DC barrel generally just has 2 relatively large solder points. I'm a lot more nervous handling my laptop with a USB-C charging cable attached than I would be with a DC barrel. However, I'm in favor of legislation that reduces the number of proprietary port standards (like Lightning).
I hate to break it to you, but we're all presently training someone else's shitty models for free by commenting on Lemmy. Probably multiple organizations at some point, in fact.
Eyewitnesses are notoriously unreliable at picking people out of a lineup as well. But I can kind of understand how if two unreliable systems point to the same person, that could be seen as enough for an arrest. It shouldn't have taken nearly as long for her to be cleared of any charges, however.
I literally almost never pay fees when moving Bitcoin between wallets on the Blockchain. Fees aren't required unless you want your transaction expedited.
You bring up good points about it being potentially useful for facilitating the movement of money across borders (and potentially doing so more anonymously now) within the PayPal ecosystem with fewer fees, but it's an unnecessary step for pretty much anything else within PayPal as far as I'm concerned. It's also definitely a bad place to park money long term unless you like inflation eating away at your buying power.
I'm not sure what you mean about high fees with Bitcoin, though, are you talking about exchange fees from fiat to Bitcoin and vice versa? I rarely pay any fees simply moving Bitcoin around.
This is a good "I am Very Smart" candidate which surprisingly doesn't seem to have an active community here on Lemmy yet...and I might be just fine with that now that I think about it. It seemed like half the posts there on Reddit either were mean spirited, called out the wrong side in an argument, or were actually smart.
Right, why would people assume he's saying Jews killed Jesus when he did not, in fact, say anything about Jews and Jews did not kill Jesus? I could make the argument that people assuming the worst possible interpretation of Jamie Foxx's words is, in itself, potentially offensive, but I'm not going to jump to conclusions about why they jumped to those conclusions. These types of non stories happen all the time on Twitter and get way more traction than they ever should. We shouldn't even be talking about this right now lol
I don't know if that's as big a problem as you think. Assuming they have not previously allowed special characters at the beginning of Twitter handles (I don't know whether they had the foresight to do this), they could use a character that was disallowed previously and is a legal character in URLs and then include that special character in the URL path so that it would be twitter.com/~user/ or whatever. This would only be applicable to new official accounts and would not break URLs for existing users.
I see, well I guess the real question is whether it can be improved at the server/protocol level and my answer is I don't know. There's some handshaking that clearly has to occur between your instance and the other instance to load the initial community state and I don't know where that process can be optimized. I think I've seen people mention tools that have been created to automatically subscribe a dummy account on your instance to all the communities on the largest instances to kind of bootstrap the process for other users, but I don't have a link to such a tool handy.
Edit, and there's never going to be a guarantee that your server can talk to their server until you try clicking the link because the other server could be overloaded, down, or blocking your server.
