  • Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse

  • Didnt know it was temp. Thank you

    One was more despite the evidence of clear worker rights violations that was argued was fine because the state is "the workers". The second I got called to provide evidence (which sure no probs there) but then silenced lmao. Super frustrating.

  • Some of the worst things happen in the US are adoptions of PRC style domestic policy and some of the worst in the PRC is the adoption of both British and US style imperealism.

  • I've been banned from several communities because I addressed the issues with slavery in China in a comment, and because I dared to critize the CCPs antiworker policies (like denying unions that dont align with what the leadership idea of the national interest).

    I can get some evidence in some of the time but then ill be sudenly banned.

  • I tend to agree with sentiment. Its more useful idiots type then cynical profesionals feeling.

  • Mesh back haul can get some distance connecting some communities aa well.

    I agree though, the intercontental circuts need major captial (fiber/satilite). Ideally, to me, that would multinational orgnization building common infrastruture for the collective benefit. There is no kind of org though, that doesn't have some attempted leverage gain, so its more about creating a balance of powers then denying them.

    So local nation states and coalitions, the UN, Internatiinal NGOs like the Linux Foundation, Alliance for Affordable Internet (A4AI), The Internet Society, local tech industry, aid from countries like the US, China, and EU members, and finally western Big Tech. These can all be stakeholders but it's important that putting the power into the individuals and communities is a major bulwark to the intentional creation of digital underclass.

  • There are some really cool community owned WISP and mesh networks set ups in areas doing green fields tbh. As well as open source 5g networks (which for parts of Africa is cool because they have some pretty advanced SMS based services).

  • It depends to me. AR has some real value use cases in the trades imho. Assuming they can be OSHA certed and not a pain in the dick to wear while doing real work in unconditioned conditions.

    Otherswise its just more screen realestate and "novel" data presentation. Both have value too, doing real work.

    There is value in novel forms of expression too that avatars and creating 3d art too.

    But yeah, advertising works and people dont just get what they need to create but get to consume. I cant find clit all in the first field in the consumer space, even the profesional space is pretty niche.

    The latter has some but its really enthusists just making face game consoles work.

    The last one though, that has some serious momentum, and for some good reason. Its not capital intesive, not compared to the first, and less niche then the second (cause lets be honest how much do most people need more screen or novel data presentation).

  • I set up some stable systems and some home lab stuff. The homelab stuff is in constant state of near disatser as i keep playing with stuff. If it works well I backup, look at my roll bacl plan, and implement it on stable cluster.

    Rinse repeat.

    Stable stuff keeps the doubt at bay (and rebuilding tools you get used to using stinks), near disaster keeps the bordom at bay.

  • Odoo has an Kanvan board. Never used it profesionally so metrics wise I cant tell you if its up to snuff but i liked it for personal use.

  • How come residential power lines aren't buried underground still?

    Jump

  • Cost, difficulty, and harder to maintaince. Want to add new coax cable? Sure toss it up. New housing being? Split it. Fiber, yep throw where the coax is. Etc. (its still high voltage, so regulations for safety obviaouly play a role here too).

    Underground? Is there rock too hard to drill there? A gas line? Did we just cut an active internet line or just some junk? Tree roots? Will it containate a water table? Will it shift and break the line here? Great we have conduit, is it broken? Leakage? Big enough to handle a high gauge for an upgrade?

    i say this as man in love with a good tunnel and conduit. Trust me when i say, yes we ought to do it in general, but also yes is a pain in the ass.

  • "Twitter users use child porn machine to make millions of images of child porn." Would be accurate imho. Legally though AI generated works are owned by no one because the machine made it but cant own it.
