hmm ... some company-own "infotainment" made by Proton. 😉 A short disclaimer would have been nice. (The video is ten days old by today and duration is 17 min.)
Intro/Disclaimer: Quite a few people are discussing consumerism nowadays and wanting a more anti-consumption lifestyle. In all the long discussions, I was missing the little actions that you and I could do to reach this. Because in the end, you and I are the consumer, right? So I made up my mind to collect and post the ideas here. - Feel free to test, use, spread or comment them. (They likely are not unique nor new, but here in one place people would look for it.)
Are you sure about the description? There was none in the Telegram post, as far as I saw. To me it looks like an "E-300 Enterprise" UAV, although some photos look different. The bomb might be correct, it is even on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FAB-250 It is interesting what old and new technology they are using and combining. Really creative!
@cosmo@lemmy.world, you have solid good points here! - Yes, the laws are democratically set and don't need extra intereference by VISA, Mastercard or else. It is just my opinion that Valve has been very liberal on his marketplace and not removing critical content themselves. I think, that is what led to the interference in addtion to lobbyist behind the payment processors.
Yeah, my comparison was flawed. But I got the idea across. Right, the transaction process is not transparent, especially not without publishing the "hatelist". - Especially good point here with the ethical aspect! There seems to be some double standard by VISA etc. about what is acceptable and what is not. I disagree with that, of course, as I still believe in ethical values also when consuming games. ;-) So enjoy you porn game, als long as it has legal themes.
Actually, I am convinced. The article was bad and confused my inital kowledge about the issue. But thank you all for the (mostly) civil discussion. The petition unfortunately is outside my jurisdiction, so I can not sign. But I will keep an eye on the topic.
Did some quick search and it turns out: There was controversy about revisionism and right-wing talking by the original lemmy.ml admins (and founders). Hence, everyone coming from there with fresh accounts immediately get's the "idiot label", is insulted and downvoted. Not a very welcoming gesture in such a supposed open, liberal and new community of geeks. - It seems, we can either change instaces, delete our accounts or ignore it.
hmm, no VPN in that moment. Likely just the way my browser or lemmy.ml interacts with yewtu.be, but no bother. In the end it was fine.
Hey, there! Not sure if strangers from the internet can give you good advice ... but here is my 50 cents:
Interesting feature, surely possible. I have seen that on "Threema". Of course, secured by two layers of passwords/-phrases and strict connection procedure.
Well, as for many topics, also "privacy" in detail seems to be very different to many people. Personally I like the "auto-expire" feature in every messager app. But I also know people, who get angry about deleted chats. Because they forgot, what's been said in the past or they want to look up stuff months ago, or ... I else don't know.
Hmm ... are you talking about the original Signal app or the Molly app? Because I don't really understand your news here.
For me, as far as I am aware, Signal has always been synchronising the chat history. The only condition being, that you have connected your device before in the past, which I think is a good privacy feature. (Although, I haven't checked, how far back it goes. Never needed that.) - You don't want any random new device read all our history, or do you?
Hello, dear "Lemmings" (correct address?)
As a quite new user to the Lemmy universe and the Fediverse concept, I have a basic question, which I could not get answered elsewhere: If an instance (= a community / topic group, e. g. "memes","World news" or "MapPorn" in the example picture) is moving from one server to another (= the name and/or ending changes), how to properly follow the move? And what happens to the "old" instances, that are discontinued? Should I keep them following?
Best regards
My ELI5 answer: The periodic table is basically "finished", there are no new additions. Meaning, the structure is is set and almost all elments found, including some (theoretical) higher-number elements that still have to be securely "discovered". This final discovery nowadays happens only in specialised labs from time to time, because the higher-number elements are extremly unstable, only created artifically and existing for a few nanoseconds or femtoseconds. Some more details you can find on Wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinide
Additionally, some people discuss different models/structures for organising the elements in general. But that is a different topic.
You just said it yourself: The video is created/sponsored by a business. Usually, to sell a product. - That's what we have to keep in mind, when viewing such content. Additionally, some people here in the Fediverse are quite angry and polarised against Proton, despite it being a company with high privacy focus.
