I try to contribute to things getting better, with humor, sourced information, OC and polite rational skepticism.Disagreeing with a point ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.Let's discuss to make things better sustainably.Always happy to question our beliefs.

  • Did you never say you want to "murder/shoot" someone out of frustration or as a joke to a close one? Imagine the FBI coming for you because of that.

  • I studied physics at university, I also had the opportunity to visit Fukushima Daichi after the catastroph and one of the new EPR. Enrichied fuel used in nuclear power plants and the byproducts of the reactions are dangerous. The multiple security measures are not there for the pleasure of spending budget.

  • The consequence of this legitimate fear is crazy security and the cost of it. To the point where the cost of new nuclear now struggles to compete with renewables. The new generation plants EPR are catastrophic in terms of budget and schedule.

  • You don't need to create an instance (requires server administration skills), just a community (requires a few clicks). On the top right menu, there should be a create community entry.

  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie You'll start noticing those opinions mainly from specific instances. If it's not your thing, don't hesitate to block communities, users, or whole instances before giving up. You can use Lemmy the way you like.

  • Just go to whatever instance url and you can see what's on this instance as well as what's on the instances it federated with. No need to login for reading. You are logged in lemmy.world so check jlai.lu for example.

  • I think you are overestimating the capacity and will of advertisers to actually identify people like that. The data may be available for it in theory, but it's unlikely they built the systems to make it happen because they don't really have much economical interest to do so. They care about market segments, not individuals.I had to work a bit on this kind of things. Most of those systems are really shitty and ineffective.

  • I think he explained the trans related instances were not blocked because trans but because their admins did not moderate the calls for violence he wanted to filter.

  • I could understand his initial intention of having some kind of nsfw filter for radical opinions, even though the implementation was questionable. And I was honestly sad about the shit storm that hit him. Too many people here pretend to be more respectful and empathetic than average, but will happily dogpile to get a piece of a person given the right momentum.But this ddos code is hard to defend, it goes against his own initial intention. He should have walked away before reaching this point.Can we avoid adding new events to this sad chain of events now?

  • I was expecting no less from Lemmy.

  • Damnit, this little girl selling me lemonade got me good.

  • Yes, but less rude, like "my lil' buddy".

  • Earth's circumference is 40 000 km, if you align 50k patches of 5 km width, it covers more than 6 times this circumference. Current human's light pollution is already a biodiversity issue. This would be massively worsening the situation for just one system.

  • Do we need a paper to estimate that ecosystems that evolved with a night time with a moon (mostly partial, sometimes absent), are going to be disturbed by having 50k of them? Also it's the new product's responsibility to demonstrate its safety.

  • Again you're implying something I didn't mean, but the point is that having 50k times the equivalent of the moon light intensity is expected to have a bad impact on the environment.

  • I was not thinking about combining the beans, but about the surface that 50k of them would cover and the amount of additional light that would represent. I do hope it's just some vaporware.

  • That would be multiplied by 50k according to their plan, wouldn't it? That's a lot of moons.

  • Does that mean two different parts of your body could have two different DNA? I think there's some crime story about this.
