for myself I find the existing android clients far from adequate. if you have filters, folders, identities etc it is a fuck tonne of set up. last time i tried i just gave up.

Idk anything about this person in specific but my guess is that @ferralcat is referring to “legacy students”. If you search for that term alone or in combination with “Standford” you can read all about what those words mean. The words have very well-understood meanings. For example:

Nearly 18% of Class of 2023 are legacy students or relatives of donors, report reveals

https://github.com/hackjutsu/Lepton ? I do not follow how this is relevant?

working hard and nepotism aren’t mutually exclusive

almost dinner

actually what you said was

any opinion

it’s not a crime. but you know lemmy isn’t a court of law right? you sound like an asshole.

whether it deserves a ban I guess that depends on the context.

sorry but that’s like the dumbest thing anyone ever said. have you heard of intagram facebook tiktok linkedin grindr tindr and every other APP

it’s like going to a party and then just hanging out in the kitchen. or spending the whole night out on the porch smokin cigs.

madness

well on its way to become the defacto centralized Git hoster.

If this isn’t Github already, what is?

It’s a bit weird to only be on discord don’t you think?

do they just post their code in a chat or something?

Imagining for a second that I had the technical ability to do so. The thought of running a lemmy server and letting random people make accounts sounds scary to me. Especially a “general purpose” one. I would feel responsible for the crappy stuff posted by users. How do people cope with that.

Also would not be able to conduct the “investigations” required to determine if an instance was csam etc. Because that means you have to go and check it out! we can’t have a system where every admin is basically required to view CSAM. that’s crazy.

I think this is the most level headed pro-mbin comment I ever read.

If the project could attract and retain more of this energy it would only be a good thing.

it isn’t known which side is in the right

If the defendent is obviously in the right

But the defendant still has to put the funds up in the first place? It’s a huge gamble and most people don’t even have the ante available.

Is there anywhere in the world that has a robust and comprehensive public funding for legal entanglements of all types?

tell me why i shouldn’t use plex as I’m always tempted by it whenever these threads come up and everyone who uses it is so happy.

But free/libre is so much more delicious.

But don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

I have a hard time thinking how it would work. For example your comment posted at https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/5907612 posted at “Sunday, December 24th, 2023 at 8:40:09 AM GMT+00:00”. If you back up and restore to a new account in 6 months, does your new account get to retroactively repost this comment to December 2023? What about top posts you make?

Individual emails make sense as lone documents but on social media the individual items are only comprehensible in context.

If you just want a record of your individual posts/comments without context you can point an RSS reader at the feed available on your home instance user page. (Lemmy users only; for some reason this feature not available to kbin.)

finally, a lemmy instance which tolerates the posting of memes

I always find screenshots from apps confusing. Also I don’t use IG. What is the context of these text boxes? Who is “promoting” the posts? It sounds like an ad from the user who posted it, but the accompanying text says it is advertising Threads.

I notice that the image posted here and the one in the comments by @wolfshadowheart have the same content but the usernames are different. Are they mirror accounts?

I have actually seen people worrying about the computational burden of handling all the extra data this could produce. I seem to recall someone actually doing back of envelope math and concluding that federation with threads would be cost prohibitive for a lot of instances.

If that is true then the whole debate we are having is irrelevant because federation will basically not be possible for websites which are seemingly being operated without anything resembling a business plan.
