  • A lot of things interest me, especially the ones that are both technical and capture my imagination. Recently I have been really curious about animal communication, but also I had sparks of Interests in very different things, like Athen's sortition democracy.

  • I mean, I'm a day dreamer, so these thoughts are on tip of my tongue for most of the day.

  • The confrontation, shared in a video that has circulated on Reddit, centres on a simple but uncomfortable question: should a doctor be wearing glasses with a built-in camera while examining a patient in an intimate clinical setting?

    I hate it when articles do this. Firstly, answer is NO. secondly there's nothing uncomfortable about the question itself because answer is a NO, third there's no need to frame a clear violation of privacy as a question. If it's not acceptable to pull out a phone and start recording in that situation, then it's clearly not acceptable to wear those glasses.

  • Privatisation always feels like a solution to shitty government services till some ultra rich company comes in, provides good service while burning cash, capturing the entire market forming a monopoly or duopoly, then raising the prices while making service shittier, and the government will say they can't do anything now because shutting them down would mean paralyzing the entire railway of the country.

    If this feels oddly specific, it's because I've seen this happen with my own eyes, just not in the railway.

  • I'm doing my part by already writing shitty code.

  • I reached the limit while reading this comment

  • For someone who doesn't live in America, Delaware sounds like a perfect place for cyberpunk dystopia

  • How interesting their paid tier has no mention of being ad free

  • I am completely sober but the Idea I got is more insane than yours.

    The trust thing basically cannot work for me. It's not only expensive, but I don't think it's a good idea to operate a social media trust from my jurisdiction( India ). So if anyone wants to go forward with trusts, it must be someone from Europe not me.

    The idea I have, which honestly sounds crazy, but may be the only way individual owners can run these instances, is the idea of mutually assured destruction. Basically, why, despite having nukes, have we not used them yet? Because nuclear attack means both the partners will mutually assured destruction.

    Similarly, if I give admins and server owner both the power to delete the server, with admins having to vote a simple majority in order to do so, it basically creates a mutually assured destruction scenario, where both have to co-operate.

  • Good shitpost lol

  • Just like entertainment industry, there's an entire industry in journalism just for these guys. There's still swaths of people who consider them as oracles rather than salesmen for their technology.

  • I can assure more than half of them are redeemable.

  • I was gullible enough to believe it for a moment. Sigh

  • I love the fact that even for ranting about internet forums you chose alice and bob for the example😭.

  • I skimmed over this comment and started wondering who in this world has their 3 languages as spanish russian and chinese. Some interesting family, they must have.

  • Csam is gonna be the ultimate hurdle I am gonna have to cross. Lot of traditional csam protections involve protection against already existing images on the internet, and even those software are becoming sparser these days.

  • Yup! Exactly the argument I have heard from people who back the system.

  • Athen democracy did have a system where you had to consent to standing in the process. I mean isn't that necessary? You only stand if you want to stand.

    Also it's not being a leech, one of the biggest success of their democracy was to ensure people working for government get a salary. Without a paid incentive I think plenty of people would just not participate in it at all.

    My upper estimate is half of the dau might want to participate, realistically, I think number could be as low as 30 or 20%

  • The slave owners were against Athens democracy lol.

  • Fediverse @lemmy.world

    What would be your opinion on a lemmy/piefed instance that's run like Athen democracy?

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world
