  • "They say time is the fire in which we burn." - Dr. Soran

  • I always wondered, since soren did manage to get into the nexus the first time, and the nexus is outside time, did Picard's time shenanigans effectively "pull him out" again (if so why doesn't he remember) or is there a version of him now back in the nexus forever?

  • Actually iirc the Onion bid was lower, but would spread the reward more equitably to the victims. The victims wanted it. The company doing the liquidation wanted it, the judge wanted it, but the appeal judge blocked it.

  • What's a good instance to be on at the moment?

  • I'm not close to burnout but thanks for the concern. I don't run my instance like lemm.ee does for a reason ;)

  • Unfortunately that philosophy led them to close down their instance due to burnout, so maybe it's not exactly a winning one 😅

  • is there is any Lemmy server that care about privacy(does not require email), Does not impose limits on community posts like my current instance and does not have high amount of restrictions?

  • If we get pwned, or otherwise compromised, one cannot tie your username to an email. The same reason the OP doesn't want to provide an email I guess.

  • We require a valid email for registration as an anti-spam measure, but you can garble the email afterwards.

  • Israel's spy agency used AI and smuggled-in drones to prepare attack on Iran

    Jump

  • Israel’s element of surprise was enhanced by Iranian officials’ apparent assumption that Israel wouldn’t attack while talks over its rapidly advancing nuclear program were ongoing with the U.S.

  • Best place for a community alternative to Facebook group?

    Jump

  • Yes lemmy can serve as a good replacement for a picture sharing group

  • Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feeds

  • Ewww

  • Do you think Lemmy has a culture separate from Reddit or is it basically the same?

  • We also asked for your favourite anarchist or pirate. We're not just techie :)

    In case you didn't know, OSS stands for Open Source Software, like Firefox, Linux, Lemmy etc ;)

  • I'd argue earlier. Before the largest digg exodus. 2010 already had custom subs and supported some niche comms

  • Yes, we have way higher percentage of neurodivergent people here and I love it.

    China's electric cars are becoming slicker and cheaper - but is there a deeper cost?

  • VC-backed OpenAI is the most valuable company in the world and is engaging in massive environmental destruction. The US state just went into cahoots with them to the tune of billions

    VC-backed Uber and AirBnb disrupted multiple estabilished industries for the worst by undercutting them through loss-leading.

    VC-backed Facebook killed or purchased all its rivals and consolidated almost all social media to the detriment of the whole world.

    Jump

  • So, basically what every VC-backed capitalist is doing. But we don't see these constant articles of "But at what cost" for every VC-backed venture

    Jump

  • OK but seriously, "China does something potentially good, but at what cost" is a meme at this point.

  • Again, python 2 still exists. nothing would be "trashed". If you want backwards compatibility just keep using python2. We clearly don't see things the same way, but given that python is the most popular languge in the world, I'm happy most see it my way.

  • Python 2 transition took decades and EOL was almost a decade ago, get over it. If you still want to use it, use it!

    I don't understand this approach at all. Software evolves and sometimes you need breaking changes. Godot did it as well, but I guess that "great for tinkering" as well.

    It fills me with confidence that the language is the most widely used in the world and is not afraid to do what must be done instead of growing stale and unwieldly so that lazy developers don't learn anything new.
