Imo that’s as much a problem of the sorting algorithm as it is with a single community blasting out too many posts at once without any consideration for how current frontends are unable to usefully integrate that into people’s feeds. A couple of years ago nanoUFO was being a bit (subjectively) overenthusiastic about posting - I counted and !games@sh.itjust.works had 40 posts at once from them and it made the first couple pages of my feed basically unusable for a while.

Scaled is also probably better suited for your subscribed feed rather than /All.

Thank you for leaning into the account name roleplay now and then :P

Honestly once they made it clear that holo-Thatcher was giving consent I thought they’d be redeemed in other’s eyes.

What are your blocking habits?

I made it through nearly two years and eventually caved after I made the mistake of arguing in favor of the truth, supported by video evidence and a fact check from an internationally recognized fact-checking organization only to be told to “fuck off”, a second user said that they enjoyed pissing on my shoe(s) in their personal fight against truth, and some other catastrophically braindead takes. I generally don’t like the blocking approach for opinions I don’t agree with because everyone has differing views and also people have bad days and that’s just life. However, being actively hostile to the truth and being extremely confrontational about it was a bridge too far for me and it was either blocking a few mouldy potatoes in an attempt to keep things tolerable or getting off the threadi/fediverse so I decided to give the former a whirl.

If you do block a lot of people, has that affected your experience?

Thankfully haven’t felt the need to block many, so the only thing I’ve really noticed is that occasionally one of the blocked users comments in the thread for something I’ve submitted (which I don’t get a notification for and can’t see) - but then someone unrelated replies to them and then I get a notification for a comment chain which I can’t actually load. It took me a while to even figure out why I was getting these “ghost” notifications.

Science has gone too far

I simultaneously believe that Wikipedia is valuable and that it’s not clear that WMF needed $185 million dollars.

As far as I can tell the situation has not significantly changed since “the last time(s)” this was discussed. Wikipedia remains a valuable resource, and WMF continues to aggressively increase both spending and fundraising revenue. Whether you think that means you should donate or not is probably the same answer as it was several years ago for most individuals based on personal preferences.

It’s fine, it’s mostly just a federated software problem. For people on lemmy they can see the image itself in the UI.

For those who don’t see the image embedded, it’s this cursed URL: https://s2.qwant.com/thumbr/474x184/4/1/6e8510687c330d38e894f4a419f5068153b7312148590f6fca6b18001404db/OIP.JY7AimVCBQ6lSbPAKajQCQHaC4.jpg?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse.mm.bing.net%2Fth%2Fid%2FOIP.JY7AimVCBQ6lSbPAKajQCQHaC4%3Fpid%3DApi&q=0&b=1&p=0&a=0

It does though?

the kbin.social domain expires in a few days, on 10 September

Looks like someone might’ve bought the domain?

I used to believe in this (and to a degree still do), but the idea of increasing the attack surface of unreasonable people (who seem to have become increasingly common in the last 10 years) who will do insane things like SWAT you, or doxx your personal details (like home address), or even just follow you around online to harass you has made me have second thoughts about the tradeoffs involved in this approach 🫠

Fwiw it looks like Cutipol is the brand and that Horne is just the retailer

Kinda scary that the threadi (??) instance with the (probably) second-highest active users struggled enough to warrant a shutdown :(

Memory connected via the pci bus to the CPU, would be too slow for application use like that.

The experimental results presented in this paper demonstrate that Micron’s CZ122 CXL memory modules used in software level ratio based weighted interleave configuration significantly enhance memory bandwidth for HPC and AI workloads when used on systems with Intel’s 6th Generation Xeon processors.

Using ram doesn’t add anything.

It would improve access latency vs flash though, despite less difference in raw bandwidth

Weirdly grateful right now that lemmy image embeds don’t work properly on mbin (they fall back to being ordinary URLs) 🫠

Please don’t give the US any ideas ;_;
