TikTok does not show you “everyone”. It teaches us an algorithm can addict you to a carefully selected set of short 6 second clips. People watch their little bubble thinking they saw everyone without even realizing 👁🗨

Can cows eat straw? Or can they only eat Hay & enjoy that more?

But why is it a camel in the saying 🐫? Why not a horse, cow, ox…

People need to think about the crazy potential of geothermal energy in general. Thanks for bringing that up 🌋 . But the problem here: How do we get the Pizza down there 🍕. Folding the Pizza through a Borehole 🗼? How stable is the temperature at 100°C spots?

Hate that aspect of social networks as well. Someone has to moderate manually in the end, once a community is not finely curated. Since that is not pleasant experience.

Thats why I Love the idea that users have to show some merit before allowed to join a community. But that kind of system does not scale well. And social networks usefulness is all about scale. There are contradicting forces at play here.

For Videos I can get it, since that costs much storage and bandwidth for the host 🎞️. But for raw text/html? No.

Can someone tell me what happens if my Lemmy instance host shuts down 💀? Will my posts be deleted?

With the mass adaption of discord these kind of “nice search engine finds 🔍” will become rare again.

And I heard that reddit also has a special search engine deal with google while blocking others?

“You can not buy intelligence”

But the product of appearing intelligent is sold: private Education. Also you need to be able to afford the right condition: Not starving to death to appear intelligent, afford food & afford some water without lead contamination (since lead in the water lowers IQ), lead pipes where used for drinking water in poorer areas … Also research and innovation costs lot of upfront capital investment and connections nowadays.

Since Lemmy is an open source platform it is incredibly easy to build automated bots to spam it. I suggest looking for quality user Profiles to follow, and see what communities they posted on to find high quality communities.

Emperor “Hong”. I could not imagine a better name for someone making this argument.

yep sometimes the simple things, like building a house in minecraft, are the cool ones :) I am the kind of player to build the dirt house, or just build a underground base in some cave I started digging for iron/coal.

I also had the same experience; sometimes the flatpak package is the most useful one, since its newer Version now supports feature X by default.

Meta: This is a great meme in text form. This shows memes do not always have to include images.

lmao my etc/nixos/configuration.nix file is a mess, I have a huge list of programs and programming languages I use in packages = with pkgs; [ .... no flakes no modules… so the meme does not check out for me… but at least I got i3-window manager working using the wiki

Let me summarize the glory of the meme for people who do not get all the distributions references in textual form (and as a check if I get the references): The image shows the branding image of a bunch of operating systems and Linux distributions with memes … descriptions follow – left to right top to bottom:

• Debian: Smiling old men with tea meme, since it is so standard 0815
• Arch Linux: Overweight NPC meme in his room Anime collection in background
• Ubuntu: Money Meme (because big Cooperation sponsors Ubuntu I guess?)
• LFS (Linux from scratch a Distro where you build everything from scratch to learn how the linux system works): it has some Spongebob meme where Computer science P.h.ds get instructed by a wise snail who is an LFS user
• Manjaro: guy who looks cool from the front but his ass is visible in a mirror behind him
• Open-Suse: Chad-Meme (I guess the creator of the meme loved suse)
• Linux-Mint: Weird guy who wants to be cool with a skateboard… I guess since Linux-mint is so easy to use??
• gentoo linux and void linux: Stone age survivor in the woods with old tools (since you build everything from scratch with simple tools in these distros)
• Garuda Linux: guy with flashy LED-strips built into his shoes and expensive gaming laptop trys to be cool with sunglasses
• Pop-Os/Ubuntu: They are clones of each other, since they are all debian/ubuntu based
• fedora: Psychopath American Psycho movie meme
• Kali: Hacker with sunglasses on Laptop guy meme
• Windows: Guy with a clone of himself behind him holding a gun. (viewing the Candy-Crush advertisement in the start-menu be like:)
• Nixos, OpenBSD: Lonely guy sitting on a chair, staring into the void, he seems to be at peace.
• Apple: Golden luxury toilet, 5 stars
• Tux sits on a white Porsche racing car overtaking chromeOS sitting in a spongebob meme car, Apple with a cool Porsche red racing car behind.

oh no … I realized this is just statistics 101

omg this is big brain. Higher population density means higher amount of Bigfoot sightings and furry suits, which means both could be uncorrelated.
