Is it the first ‘political’ one? (Not that this should be!)

I can’t remember many that reminded me it was a US based (I assume) comic.

I think he meant to just not ship to stores until all the online, pre-release orders had been delivered.

No one wants to use their fabs because they’re bad!

(Not awful, but not cutting edge really any more)

16-18C is probably best. Love curling up in the duvet in the cold, but cold normally means damp too ☹️

Sleeping above 25C is miserable.

The company I worked for tried that as an experiment on how much money it saves.

Absolutely awful, even removing connectives causes problems.

You would be surprised

It looks like an open source project. Makes a hell of a lot more sense to implement using that than rolling your own? If it’s missing something you need, write it for them.

Writing your own implementation is extremely unlikely to differentiate your app/product. There is a spec, either you implement it and it works, or you don’t and it doesn’t. Using a maintained library is by far the better option.

Focus your time on the product you are building not the tech.

I did try that once, you can’t catch stack overflow errors in .net at least. Too fundamentally broken.

Yes. This is the technology community, not the buy European one.

Framework is pushing laptops in the right direction.

Build new computer. Old computer to be a home server running Linux or something fancy.

Webassemby is still limited to a single thread as far as I’m aware, so it’s not a full runtime for the language you are writing in as anything using threads behind the scenes tends to fall over unexpectedly at runtime.

Its also an absolute bastard to debug (young ecosystem)

That requires lots of cropland though. Hydrogen can effectively be made by offshore wind farms etc.

It might work if we reduce standard fuel requirements for cars etc enough.

Electricity has been around that long too though, yet there are no serious electric passenger planes (with a decent range)

It has it’s flaws, but it may have a higher ceiling in terms of usefulness. They say they can make it work, which is more than I hear about electric planes for example.

We should be financially encouraging 0 carbon planes, without controlling how, then let the engineers work what tech to do it with.

What are the other 0 carbon flight options? They are all flawed.

We can engineer our way through flaws with enough effort though.

…then there should be regulatory actions to help make them viable

It depends who you are trying to hide from. A VPN will hide your internet traffic from your ISP/phone company, but obviously not from the site you are visiting.

At best you might be one of may people connecting from the same (VPN) IP address, but they can still collect info from your browser/app etc to generate points to ID you if they want.

If anything, it’s way easier to control what your employees see if they are on a company instance.

…that was entirely my point.

Also, which company uses Reddit as their forum?

lots of small apps, orgs, communities etc just have a subreddit and a discord server. Lots of bigger companies have official or semi-official subreddits.

We’re all a big community. I think people get this quickly.

Someone wanting to get support for their hoover or something may not. they create an account to discuss the pros and cons of certain hoover and see loads of random stuff about American politics and Linux. Their going to get real confused. Most people have heard of reddit now though (and to a lesser extent discord)

In fact defederation is a negative since now you have to worry about new signups, moderation, etc. While in a federated instance, you can leave moderation to other instances and only allow team/company members on your instance.

They are going to moderate their communities, if its unfederated, you don’t have to worry about moderating (or the lack of) on any other instances communities at all.

Users can sign up on other instances and still be able to interact with your instance for support, help and other stuff.

Thats going to be too confusing for a lot of users - they just want to sign up and complain about/discuss things.

It depends if they are saying, we have a community on lemmy (federation fine) or saying, here is our official forum thing (federation bad)

Possibly, is Mbin basically a single instance like kbin was?

If you are a company looking for a forum, you want to be able to control it. Unfederated means you can control account access and don’t have to worry about someone going to All and seeing porn etc.

Federated could work, but you need to make it clear that it’s just a community on a platform.
