Really not looking forward to the idea of github.io links all becoming dead. So many repos with documentation at a github.io URL, with those links spread all across plaintext files and Stack Overflow and forums

If it’s an issue, then the organisers shouldn’t let kids in, otherwise it’s at the parent’s discretion, not yours

To avoid sea ice, they entered an area they are legally allowed to enter… okay

Are you American though? Here in the UK, nobody really owns a plunger and they don’t need to, the plumbing is different, it doesn’t clog. Do need to own a toilet brush though, to wipe off the skidmarks, which is more rare in the US.

The oddest spelling of “colourize”, with both a U and a Z

I was under the impression it wasn’t even truly private, nevermind encrypted. Not actually sure how it works though

On Lemmy you can’t exchange email addresses though… else you’d be exposing the addresses publicly and that’s also rife for spam

The AI’s having a hard time deciding what’s inside the bird cage and what isn’t, though it did better than I would’ve expected

That’s a bit misleading to say like that. Go to the website, scroll to the footer and click on “Legal”. Your instance, feddit.de, has a legal notice, with a privacy contact person, mentioning you can request data erasure, and detailing where your data goes. Mine, lemmy.world, has a number of in depth legal documents attached there.

However, yes, other instances they are federated with might not take it as seriously though, and if all your data is going there too, then that’s a hole in your data privacy.

And not all homeless people are sleeping rough, some are in temporary accommodation etc

Not sure if there’s a scheme in place here in Scotland or UK, but I always get asked if I want a receipt or not for several years now. Receipts and plastic bags are only by request. The main exceptions seem to be restaurants and public transport.

However, my local supermarket has installed receipt scanning barriers at the self checkout - so those used to have optional receipts, but no longer. I guess profits before environment.

And certainly now that I’ve fully left Reddit, I’m no longer spreading the word of Lemmy there

Jerboa has the column separators. Looks like it also has alternately shaded rows.

And I’m sure there are many cases where an attempted EEE failed, but that doesn’t get documented in the history, because you only notice it when it is effective.

Meta isn’t even entering the Lemmy space yet, they’re entering the Mastodon space. They can hardly extend and extinguish Lemmy when they are just barely feature compatible to begin with. Yes it’s all Fediverse, but it’s pretty different.

The audience, use cases and purposes are different between Lemmy and Threads. At least for now. Consider defederating if that changes

Yeah, but if they do try to dictate standards, then react, defederate, that’s all I’m saying. I just don’t think we need to be proactive here, our tools to react are fast acting and simple.

If they do go for the dreaded Embrace, Extend, Extinguish method, then let’s ride the benefits of “Embrace” and lose them when they move on to the next steps.

Given that everything right now is just speculation - I say sit tight, observe what actually happens and respond appropriately if it does start to go wrong. Defederation is very easy, we can do it when we need to

WhatsApp is owned and fully controlled by Meta. The Fediverse is federated and that’s the beauty of it. They can’t control it
