Yeah, I did mine like 15 years ago around when they first started accepting international orders (At the time they didn’t even have labs in the UK and they paid to TNT overnight ship my spit to America)

Hyperbole

Some forum software is starting to support activitypub with plugins. If they add the plugin then you can follow and interact with the forum from Lemmy. The best option for everyone is to start pestering forum admins to add those plugins so they get users and Lemmy gets more content.

Long term creating migration scripts for popular forum software like phpBB, so content, users, etc, can be moved to a custom Lemmy instance would be an option.

Helium was interesting, but they locked it down so you can only use their proprietary hardware for access points, it seems kinda scammy.

IPFS is used by several archive projects like Anna’s archive and libgen.

Meshtastic is a distributed local mesh network for text messaging.

Now seems a good time to point out there is an alternative DNS root that isn’t censored https://opennic.org/

It sounds ridiculous but then I wonder if trump could resist the offer of a knighthood.

If an AI is detecting bugs, the least it could do is file a pull request, these things are supposed to be master coders right? 🙃

“not an FBI surveillance van”

FLOPS, floating point operations per second.

I’m a transhumanist, but a lot of transhumanists are right wing lolberts.

They’d probably melt it down instead, just to avoid giving it back.

The old version from years ago was, the current version isn’t. (Hence the existence of fork awesome)

I’ll add that every other self driving car company has a pretty good safety record, specifically because they do use LIDAR and RADAR so they can see better than humans.

Or a badly painted sign that says “Free charging”

The plugin ecosystem is full of freemium garbage. It’s also designed so a functional site basically requires the jetpack plugin, which is a connector to automattic’s proprietary SaaS.

All for something that could have been a zoom meeting.

Thanks, hadn’t seen that one before
