TikTok does not show you "everyone". It teaches us an algorithm can addict you to a carefully selected set of short 6 second clips. People watch their little bubble thinking they saw everyone without even realizing 👁🗨
Can cows eat straw? Or can they only eat Hay & enjoy that more?
But why is it a camel in the saying 🐫? Why not a horse, cow, ox....
People need to think about the crazy potential of geothermal energy in general. Thanks for bringing that up 🌋 . But the problem here: How do we get the Pizza down there 🍕. Folding the Pizza through a Borehole 🗼? How stable is the temperature at 100°C spots?
No other gaming company seems to do as much for open source as Valve. Microsoft finances its closed source XBox platform, Sony does the same with Playstation. Epic? Nope.
Hate that aspect of social networks as well. Someone has to moderate manually in the end, once a community is not finely curated. Since that is not pleasant experience.
Thats why I Love the idea that users have to show some merit before allowed to join a community. But that kind of system does not scale well. And social networks usefulness is all about scale. There are contradicting forces at play here.
For Videos I can get it, since that costs much storage and bandwidth for the host 🎞️. But for raw text/html? No.
Can someone tell me what happens if my Lemmy instance host shuts down 💀? Will my posts be deleted?

With the mass adaption of discord these kind of "nice search engine finds 🔍" will become rare again.
And I heard that reddit also has a special search engine deal with google while blocking others?
Ironically this Meme is an AdBlock Plus advertisement.

uMatrix and uBlock origin
Awesome onion service! Does anyone else know of other lemmy instances hosted over tor? Only found this conversation discussing lemmy instances over .onion, and only this hackliberty instance was mentioned ....
I heard someone say that the bot problem is fixed now? Anyone can confirm?
- I wonder how durable Valves anti Bot fix is, how intrusive it is and if it has some failure rate (false positives, banning legit players for cheating).
Their facial expressions remind me of the team fortress movie "Emesis Blue"
I agree that shutting down a games servers while leaving a singplayer mode still can be a bad move and will give team fortress 2 as an example.
- people can buy cosmetics in the game, but some may only buy them for their appearance on the multiplayer servers to other players
- 90% of the games depth with strategy comes from competing with other humans
- the bots in the singleplayer mode of the game are quite stupid, especially if you play as a spy
If a game has a mode that works in singleplayer without ethernet connection is it covered by this initiative? Since that would not require further support by the developer?
[Theory chapter 1124+] The defense Hierarchy of Elbaph
Are Giant Warrior Pirates the Giant army?
Supposedly the giants have the strongest army in the world (according to BigMom), yet we have seen the giant warrior pirates lackluster performance. Of course they tanked the egghead buster call quite well, and even played with battleships like Toyboats, but this pirate crew does not seem worthy of a Yonko Bigmoms attention. The giant pirates do not use Haki and only brute strength, like their giant archers sinking boats with .... giant arrows. Their captains Dorry and Broggy may only use Haki with their strongest attack -- Hakoku sovereignty.
Warland
This lead me to the theory that the giant warrior pirates are outcasts and joked about for their weakness by the true warriors of Elbaph who live deep inside the island. Elbaph may be organized in multiple defense rings, where each ring is at war with its neighbors. This would explain the name Warland Elbaph, a land at constant war with itself to evolve a capable growing defense against outside invasion forces. Giants seem to be thick headed, easy to anger and its common among them to fight decades long battles for forgettable reasons as Dorry and Broggy have shown.
The Defense Realms of Elbaf
So let me characterize the defense rings / realms / levels of Elbaph:
- Outer defense Belt: Pirate outcasts live at the coast.
- the coast is defended by pirates only ~ they do not like if outsiders point a gun at their hometown (RIP captain Kid)
- Shanks has set up camp there, keeping a fragile peace
- Government agents like Mother Caramel where only able to infiltrate this outermost ring, not further inland, before she got banished from the land for Big Moms tantrum.
- Giant beasts comparable to the five elders beast transformations in size roam its forests, as Dorry and Broggy recount at egghead
- frequent incursions by the inner rings force the pirates to escape outwards and seek fame and resources in foreign lands
- giant mountain passes make it difficult to intrude further inland (as shown in the Shanks vs Kid Anime episode, these mountain scenery feels like the Alps of Heidi Girl of the Alps)
- Inner Defense Ring: Giant Army fort
- giants skilled in the use of Armament and Observation train here, hunting giant beasts.
- the greatest honor is to become a personal guard of Prince Loki
- the Palace guard of king Loki recruits from their ranks.
- this is the Army of giants Big Mom wanted to attain by marrying Prince Loki with her daughter
- Innermost ring: Yagdrasil / Adam tree
- a giant tree seems to grow in the center of Elbaph. Perhaps its inspired by the legend of Yagdrassil "the world tree"
- Prince Loki chills in the Palace and his honor guard reside here
- Adam wood is sold here, making this region extremely rich.
- Conquerors Haki users are common, nocking out approaching invaders with ease
- ((Treetop)): The entire defense of Elbaph is centered to protect this treasure. Only a brave warrior of the sea can reach it ...
lmao this is the funniest name I heard for the rainbow Pentagram surrounded by a rainbow Pentagon.
"You can not buy intelligence"
But the product of appearing intelligent is sold: private Education. Also you need to be able to afford the right condition: Not starving to death to appear intelligent, afford food & afford some water without lead contamination (since lead in the water lowers IQ), lead pipes where used for drinking water in poorer areas ... Also research and innovation costs lot of upfront capital investment and connections nowadays.
Yep I had a cheap no-name trumpet, it rested for a few years in the basement without proper maintenance. One of its 3 buttons was not press-able any longer ~ rusted shut or something. Meanwhile the Yamaha still worked, well oiled and all. Lesson: always unscrew the buttons of your trumpet & Yamaha Buttons do not rust that fast I guess....
