SAP still seems to do it this way.

I would prefer to let Bluesky die silently instead of throwing a life line.

I used to live in Regensburg, one of the northernmost Roman garrisons. So, the oldest remaining building (stone wall) is almost 2000 years old.

Nothing

Nothing at all.

No own domain - instant KO from me.

I’m 46. I had some really bad breakups in my life, was alone for a couple of years. Until I met my (now) wife just 4 years ago. This changed everything because it made me realize that what I thought to be love before was just a shadow of what love truly is.

Keep looking forward and do not torture yourself over what could have been or what went wrong. Nothing went wrong. It’s just life that happened. There will be some amazing person out there and you just haven’t stumbled upon this person yet.

It’s ok to grief a bit. That’s healthy. But look forward and do not hurt yourself in the process.

Fair enough!

The problem is: Once the CO2 is in the atmosphere, it’s there. It does damage. No money in the world will undo that, unless we build massive factories that extract CO2 from the atmosphere and make coal- or oil-like stuff that we put back in the earth. At the same moment your consumption blasts CO2 out in the atmosphere.

That does not exist. There is no system in place (except for some small but ludicrously expensive labs) that could do that.

Planting trees (or something similar) might help in a few decades, if the trees are still alive then and not being harvested. Until then the CO2 is in the atmosphere, doing its damage. Every day, every minute, every second.

Well, right wing people do what right wing people do. Anyone surprised?

Why? To ease your conscience by claiming that it is not as bad because you paid something extra? It’s the modern version of the selling of indulgences.

It’s worse than doing nothing because it gives the people the illusion that it’s not so bad - while in fact it is exactly as bad.

As mentioned: It’s not the silver bullet solution but something that raises the bar for abuse. The reputational score is build up over time on the specific server based on the up- and downvotes you received.

So, yes, this can be abused itself as well - but it requires a lot more effort.

People may not like it but a reputation system could solve this. Yes, it’s not the ultimate weapon and can surely be abused itself.

But it could help to prevent something like this.

How could it work? Well, each server could retain a reputation score for each user it knows. Every up- or downvote is then modified by this value.

This will not solve the issue entirely, but will make it less easy to abuse.

Yes

What a loss! 😜

Lots of words to say:

1. We do what we are legally allowed to do.
2. We don’t care for the spirit of open source (anymore).
3. Pay up or fuck off!

All browsers have horrible resource management. Chrome is bad. Firefox is worse.

I do not understand why it is standard that a single browser tab can eat up the full resources of the underlying hardware. And worse: The browser programmers do not even realize that this is a problem.

I wish there would be an iOS app for Peertube. Then I could start to migrate. But without a mobile app, this is not really useful.

(Yes, I know some people love to use a webpage on their phones. I don’t.)

Well, I’m not that cheerful. Essentially, they changed one dictatorship for another. The elections where everything but democratic and Ortega is not any better than his predecessors. Just different.

No. But I did consider it. Multiple times.

Why not? I’m too scared! Email is the one service that let’s an attacker nuke each and everything. It’s still the most central/crucial service that almost any service relies on. If I lose access to my mail account, I lose access to pretty much every service.

As much as I would like to host this myself, I simply do not feel comfortable to do it.

How did you delete all posts? (My account is also ~12 years old and I would like to start to clean it. Once that is done, I will nuke the account.)

It turns into relief meanwhile. Actually, I want Reddit to die as fast as possible.

I deleted my Facebook-account a couple of years ago. At the beginning it felt a bit weird. But in hindsight it was one of the best decisions. My Twitter-Account got deleted in fall last year. And again: It was a good decision. I expect the decision to delete my Reddit-Account to be equally liberating.
