  • What should we be doing, individually, to increase Lemmy's userbase?

    Jump

  • I think instead of promoting Lemmy as a whole, promote individual instances separately (but evenly)

  • Would an ActivityPub enabled fediverse alternative of Discord be possible?

    Jump

  • Isn't that Matrix?

    ActivityPub wouldn't work because it's not a messaging protocol. It's a publishing protocol. The closest thing you have is Lemmy- where you have a server (instance) with channels (communities).

    It'll be easier to achieve something like this using SMTP (email protocol) than with ActivityPub.

    Matrix and XMPP are your best bets (although XMPP doesn't necessarily natively have video call, usually you'll have an accompanying TURN server)

    What you can do with email, xmpp and the fediverse is have the same username. It is possible for someone to make a platform which gives you one name and it accepts email, xmpp and fedi. Unfortunately, Matrix, for some strange reason uses the format of @name:server instead of the standard name@server (activitypub might use @name@server but that's close enough and a lot of lemmy frontends don't even care for the initial @. In reality that initial @ is probably just being used to ping them, now realising.)

  • What do you think of the Singapore approach to drugs ?

    Jump

  • The European Union has an ideological focus on the death penalty, but I would like to ask them if they have a better solution.

    Mr Branson is entitled to his opinions. These opinions may be widely held in the UK, but we don't accept that Mr Branson or others in the West are entitled to impose their values on other societies. Nor do we believe that a country that prosecuted two wars in China in the 19th century to force the Chinese to accept opium imports has any moral right to lecture Asians on drugs.

    Nothing we have seen in the UK or in the West persuades us that adopting a permissive attitude towards drugs and a tolerant position on drug trafficking will increase human happiness. Where drug addiction is concerned, things have steadily worsened in the UK, while things have steadily improved in Singapore.

    Man they are absolutely cooking here. Both in calling out the white supremacist attitudes of the west and in being rational.

  • not wanting anything to do with the mass murderer Jesus is by no means "just".

    If you hate and oppose the literal embodiment of Perfection, then yes. Yes it is.

    God knew it was made to torture humans, how can you tell? Because He uses it to torture humans. He describes their torture.

    It's described as the "The lake of fire prepared for the devil and his angels" while heaven is described as "I am going there to prepare a place for you"

    God knew they would be raped, because He commanded "His People" to enslave (and marry) them. The lucky ones were murdered.

    You're referring to the Old Testament now. Marriage was permitted at one point to captured women because the people's hearts were hard and it was a concession. It instructed that she was to be afforded the privileges and dignity of a wife, and thus wasn't a sex slave.

  • It doesn't seem to really compromise on much apart from screenspace except maybe the camera? With a single yet high res sensor.

    We don't know what chip it has either, nor what the waterproofing is like.

  • I remember it being cold, gloves on, phone in the bag, I forgot to navigate with maps via public transport. No bother, earphones are in, I can summon Google assistant or so I thought I tried asking for navigation and instead Gemini showed up and started trying to give me directions that it was hallucinating on the spot

  • I wonder how this will be with cursor navigation, though.

    Gboard has a text editor mode built in, but you have to dig a bit to enable it which makes it feel more pointless

    Does Science actually need more money?

    Jump

  • Yes. If you don't give it money, science will stop happening and the universe will fall apart
