Titles like this are always funny to me.
According to our flawed understanding of the universe, the thing the universe just did should not happen.
There are always going to be more things we don’t know than we do. Discovered Cosmic phenomena that goes beyond our current knowledge should be an expectation.
It became downright personal for me. Its about accessibility.
My brain works a certain non typical way which is challenging to live with at best.
Sudden advertisements hits me like a physical punch in my face.
The ui focus on everything new rather then a nice subscription view with filters meant i who does not watch daily would frequently miss new uploads from the channels i do like.
I felt like i was in a toxic relationship being pushed to watch on their terms while openly hating that i protect myself from ad-sault by using blockers.
I realize i did not need things to be this way and am smart enough to build and alternative.
Now i have a yt-dlp script downloaded the latest uploads from chosen channels straight to jellyfin and also a selfhosted invidious with custom tweaks for everything i dont want to spend storage space on.
Basicly i take 100% of what i liked and never have to visit the website directly again.
They are waging war on invidious, it breaks on occasion. Yt-dlp though, stable as a rock.
I may have heard a similar thing on a video that compared an elephant sized mouse with a mouse sized elephant.
Neither could survive because evolution designed their bodies for the relative pressure they exist in. This is also related to how fast their hearth beats go.
Human sized bugs could not exist for the same pressure reason also.
Disclaimer: i am as much an expert on this as are you. Source is the internet. Possibility Kurtzgesagt.
But can you write anti-nation anarchist statements without it appearing like your commenting on peoples creative freedom?
Is this proof Lemmy radicalised me?
Only digging trough the other symbols on the canvas will tell.
I support palestinian action in minecraft.
Hatsune Miku supports the freedom of the people off Gaza.
Honestly this board might be a great equaliser to see how good someone is at chess without being able to rely on recognising patterns.
I dont think the whole web being like the fediverse is feasible
It does not need to be. “Whole web” being a certain way almost implies it all follows the same standards from which point the people who set and develop those standards become the centralised authority.
I like to think of the internet as simply a carrier of digital information. This can be any information. My vpn tunnel is just as much a part of the whole as a public website.
The way i envision a positive evolution is that more people get involved in running their own network, for themselves, their family, their neighbourhood, a global community they are a part of.
They can use the activitypub protocol, a selfmade protocol or any other they want. The only thing that matters is that the people who need and use the digital information can use it.
The public internet dominated by large players will still exist but it will be (and actually already is) a small portion of everything we use the web for.
The first time i read “ancap” i thought it meant anti capitalist. Boy was that a fun conversation with the guy that proudly proclaimed to be one.
Unrelated but how do people feel about the ai images when used for something like this.
The font is very telling for being DallE
People want the means to survive, grow and live in comfort. Just because we live in a capitalist dystopia does not mean the current requirement to live is what we want.
If you have all of those and somehow cant find a passion that creates value i rather have you sit at home and do nothing because i have no expectation the work will be of any quality.
Of course you wouldn’t sit at home and do nothing because that would be boring and people with the means to be mentally and physically healthy expect more of themselves.
Point to the “dirty” jobs like swiping the streets and i’ll point to the volunteers doing a much better job keeping things clean then the career people. Passion and the inherent desire to make things better is everything.
All the important cyber security stuff is build on free software nowadays, because it is superior software in every possible way you can measure.
Traffic with complete misinformed expectations is generally undesirable. There have been reports of places getting lots of negative reviews because of this.
It can still be worse,
I once overheard a group of kindergarteners continually yelling “Skibidi toilet” at repeat.
Do you play Minecraft?
I have yet to watch it but i assume there is very little to connect with if you don’t?
Depending on how old your kids are and if you are not already playing, playing on a local server together is great family time and can provide situations for real bonding aswell as real world educational discussions.

there is nothing to read
“Bloat” the less system there is (while still working as a modern system) the better. If i need something i can install it myself.
All materials obtained just to turn it into jewellery is loss yes.
Mine is a gold alloy rather then pure and i am very fond of it. I derive pleasure from it everyday while the total loss was significantly less than the one in Bezos marriage.
We also had an engagement ring which has an industrial rock because no way where we going to waste our limited money on a real diamond.
All rings combined costs less than having a birth in a US hospital.
Both rings were still a loss to the planet, just like almost every novelty i own and many things i consume. Staying alive is a destructive action and all humans cause loss. That is normal and ok. What is not ok is not being aware/inconsiderate of it.
We should all strive to create the least amount of loss we are aware off and my older self having grown significantly then when i married would love a ring made from recycled computer metals which now often end up on a landfill.
Normal milk is still mostly water so basically everything turns in some kind of dense rancid cheese?
So really that ring is pure loss.
No one owned that gem when it was just sitting in the ground. It took millions of years to create.
Some capitalism claimed it when one of his workers mined it. Calculated how much energy and labor it has costs to obtain it.
Then sold it for a massive markup compared to their own costs.
The machines have spend energy to get it (loss)
The workers spend life time and life energy to get it (loss)
Bezos his works spend their life time and energy to make him the money he now loses on this ring. (Loss)
The planet lost one of its rare gems. (Loss)
No lives are going to be saved using that rock, its not going to be used for breakthrough science, its not in a museum where we the people can admire our planet and learn from the its amazing processes. (No profit)
Instead its to decorate a hand so one person can be perceived as having value. Ironic.
I would make a toxic relationship joke but this shit is just not funny.
