How big is the image? Image uploads are working for me on this end
In Australia, pensions are government issued, but relatively low paying. Superannuation (similar to a 401k) is paid by your employer as a percentage of your pay each year, but generally managed by a dedicated superannuation company. Those companies can and have gone bust, taking their payees funds with them
I've lost too many people in my life to suicide, and it's a really hard topic for me to watch on screen.
So even though I've got no use for a hotline, just knowing that the show will center suicide as a theme is important to me being able to decide if/when to watch it.
If I was making my living off of my name, I wouldn't even know some random user with no followers from a troll domain exists.
Whatever the reason celebs don't take to the fediverse, this isn't it...
The poor critter was being harassed by a smaller bird, so it looked majestic, but was getting pushed further and further down that tree branch by a bird a third of its size :)
That's why she hosts her own domain, instead of sending half a million followers to some random fediverse instance.
Not much. Most of my listening is done via "random" streams or the radio at work.
So, in its current form, lemmy sends federation packets in serial form. It can send them to multiple instances in parallel, but the feed between any two given instances is serial.
And serial means that the second packet doesn't get sent until the first packet has been processed. Add in geographic latency, which is relevant at multiple steps of resolving any given AP packet, which adds to the per packet processing time, and now, lemmy.world is producing packets faster than it's possible for a geographically remote instance to process them, no matter what hardware they're running on.
The problem would be resolved with parallel sending, but that's not currently a thing that lemmy allows for, and apparently, is not trivial to implement either.
Offline hours? Is that something that happens often enough to need a work around?
lemmy.world is so big that it breaks federation to geographically distant lemmy instances. Driving more users to it wouldn't help anyone and defeats the purpose of decentralisation.
I'm curious about this. They say that it's related to in utero exposure to androgens, which means it's probably not as clear cut as XX vs XY, because intersex folk and folk with atypical hormonal exposure (such as fraternal twins of different sexes, with a shared placenta) experience different levels of exposure, and different reactions to that exposure.
Yep, it was one of his posts referring to implementing his existing approach to AP that I was thinking off!
