Ist schon irgendwie deprimierend, oder? Wir könnten uns die Nachrichten eigentlich schon selber schreiben, es kommt eh nichts mehr neues!

Extremely cool. Do you get motion sick after some time? Do you spend 100% of the time in VR or did you take breaks from the headset?

Yeah, it definitly tells me something, namely that I should not use the tool.

Why would news publish articles about the code quality of the tool, instead of its functionality?

Now they have negative press about its closed source nature, which is a calculated risk they took, just to open source it soon anyway? I doubt it.

Stuff like yuzu that gets taken down for mostly bs reasons. If the EU's insane chat control law passes, you can go to jail for providing encrypted communications software. By then we might need something like this. Dark times.

I have run Stable Diffusion models successfully with my ancient Vega 64 with 8 gb vram. However, it does occasionally run out of memory and crash when I run models that want all 8 gigs. I have to run it without a proper DE(openbox, falkon browser with one tab only) if I dont want it to crash frequently.

True. However, I think its unreasonable to demand a digital euro that is also private for businesses, as the only benefit from that would be enabling tax evasion and selling illegal goods. There are differences between physical anonymous payments and online anonymous payments. The problem is scale and reach. You cant just send millions of euro in cash to someone in a different country, you can with online payments. That allows for money laundering and illegal markets at a scale never seen before.

So yes, it will be different than cash, but your identity cant be traced, so id call it a worthy replacement.

Ive heard from quite a few developers that people without degrees in CS program differently than with a degree. CS teaches the theoretical fundamentals that you could go your entire life without knowing and still perform well in a job, but they do help when e.g. building novel solutions, reframing problems into more general problems that were solved 40 years ago, and getting an overview of how everything works can prevent reinventing the wheel.

sounds like a good middle ground!

Ah, so you want a 'hard' defederation, that works just like it does now, and a 'soft' defederation, that users could opt to disable? Interesting.

However, as others said already, that would mean that servers now also have to federate with other servers that most users and the mods probably dont see, creating difficult moderation challenges...

yeah, theres the IWW(map of all branches of the IWW) for example, however they are not as big outside of america and britain.

I got my information from the article about the new social media rules within that article here:

https://kathmandupost.com/national/2023/11/10/cabinet-passes-rules-to-regulate-social-media

the relevant passage:

The new rule also bars any post promoting wrong activities such as child labour, human trafficking, child marriage or polygamy.

so for nepal human trafficking and polygamy is in the same category of "wrong activities".

What do you mean its not the point? its literally a crime to post "vulgar" language, like you said a catch all term that they can use to censor anything they deem "vulgar". How is this not a law designed to censor?

For clarity, I am not the person you replied to, I wrote the comment above. Imo Usernames are a bit hard to see on some frontends!

yeah, thats probably a really unstable combination, as the internal logic of capitalism requires infinite growth, so the capitalist parts will be strongly incentivised to expand into and consume the communist parts.

But maybe different kinds of socialist communities could federate like this?
