That’s long-term thinking. I assume it’s like a ponzi scheme: everyone who puts money into something like this thinks they’ll cash out before the problems occur.

Why do I feel like the ones left holding the bag are going to be the taxpayers/residents somehow?

Jellyfin is the way. Streaming only made sense when prices were low and all the content was basically in one place.

I’ll just keep growing my personal library.

Reverse image search has mixed results… A few say Florida, but the top one says Wyoming. I’d guess the one that says Jacksonville, Florida is most likely.

This is the part in Sim City where I restart.

So how does that work? Do you just have an AI listening throughout the session like a note-taker?

RIP to a legend

I’m not a judge, but isn’t internet essentially a utility these days? Cutting someone off because of piracy seems like cutting off electricity or water because they did something illegal with it.

The danger of a measles outbreak is especially scary if you have a baby, because they can’t even get this vaccination until 12 months old. Similar if you’re immunocompromised, I’m sure.

This is why herd immunity is so important.

That sounds like a pretty cool solution. I don’t have a good mental picture for how that would work on the technical side, but anything that does behind-the-scenes work like that for new users is probably worth considering.

I think it’s healthy for the fediverse to have similar communities on different instances, because if we centralize, it basically becomes reddit, which means moderation and censorship are at the whims of whoever owns the only place people go.

I’d also like to give a shout-out to sopuli.xyz/c/memes for having a popular memes community too.

People were predicting this a while back as a way that reddit would make themselves more “advertiser-friendly”.

I also wonder if there were some legal concerns in those states that now require porn sites to check IDs.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is the accusation that they collect keystroke data from outside the app if you have it installed?

It’s amazing how whatever is going on in politics, the gun industry always seems to win.

Lactose tolerant?

It’s what connects us all.

That’s like being mad at the bus because your chosen destination for the day sucked.

Which would actually save money!
