just me being pessimistc and building off my experience with Germans in general

OpenSUSE is a German company which makes the probability of them supporting Israel very high.

I thought we all agreed that “immutable” is a confusing term and that we should call it “atomic”

bcrypt… with how many iterations? seems like an important detail

what does that mean though. Are they still compressible?

We are omnivores and do a lot of chewing. Dogs don’t really chew, just rip.

Some great apes that have more raw plants in their diet even have a bony ridge on their skull that the jaw muscles attach to.

Our jaws actually have great leverage, our molars are very close to where the jaw muscle attaches.

gender liquid sounds a lot more suggestive

Hey guys. In high school I graduated with fantastic grades in physics. I have a BSc in Chemical Engineering. Can somebody explain supercritical fluids to me please

people who don’t do drugs got it easy

Can somebody explain the fruit thing? I’ve seen fruit flies demolish fresh fruit. The amount of yeast biomass on them must be negligible at that point. Do the eggs/larvae spread the yeast before they start eating?

finally somebody explains the joke, thank you :D

gulag for everybody who thinks this is news. The guy is literally a fascist and we are supposed to be angry about how his humanoid robots look kinda human? who tf cares

Good for Nix! Horrible article though lmao

The ad revenue part is true but what do you mean by not harvesting data? Mastodon definitely stores your boosts and likes, it just doesn’t use that data to recommend more content. And the big difference is of course that it is stored on your instance’s server, not a centralized location.

That’s fair! Although I fear big money will always come up with some way to make a “better” UX, either simply because they can afford more/better devs, and often by compromising privacy, accessibility, etc.

It’s centralized. They allow federation using their own protocol.

But all you need to know is that it’s a capitalist, for-profit undertaking.

it’s quite different in the sense that you don’t see any recommended content, just your follows and their boosts.

That mindset is the problem. A slightly better UX at the cost of freedom is a bad deal.

It’s the dilemma of any alternative space. People seeking alternatives don’t like the mainstream.

And with a bit of generalization, there’s two reasons not to like the mainstream:

1. The mainstream is too oppressive
2. The mainstream is not oppressive enough
