moo point.

you know, the kind of thing a cow would say.

2020 was a glorious year for punching fascists.

Almost assuredly not, but we know so little about abiogenisis, its entirely plausible to consider that there may have been multiple origins of life on earth. The nature of cellularization, and DNA first versus RNA first models for life (or perhaps even some other “3rd” biomolecule? maybe surface level interactions on clay?), or even RNA only models. It may well be that there are other sources for abiogensis that are extraterrestrial, but that doesn’t overcome things like the concentration dilemma (you need some biophysical process to concentration “enough” of these interesting biomolecules to do meaningful stuff).

So extra terrestrial things that stand on legs and have heads and eyes? Almost assuredly not. But it may well be that we’ve been repeatedly (or continuously) colonized by extra-terrestrial bio-molecules. I still hold out for some missions to features like Pluto where there is obviously a kind of deep-ice geochemical cycle happening (freeze-thaw based on coming close/ further to the sun). In these cycles there might be opportunities for basic biomolecules to form and accumulate. Slam a big chunk of it into a planet that is at least cool enough to have liquid water, and a geochemical cycle, that might be all you need.

That makes total sense. And I would guess decentralized hosting or federated hosting couldn’t meet this need?

Looks like Joe Rogan if he worked at Gringots bank as a drug dealer.

Flash for Dummies was my first book on programing. I used it to make games about feces.

The water distribution company is not, to my knowledge, held liable when something happens like you fill a bucket of water and share it with someone else.

No but they are liable if there is lead in the water, even if they don’t know it.

fuck I started leaning to program in flash specifically because of videos like this.

Yeah I’ve thought a tiny bit about this but it gets dodgy with things like csam.

How do we address some one uploading stuff that would get you arrested?

So we need better federated hosting…

How in the fuck is this organized?

USA, Nigeria, Japan, India?

Ahem…

Qgis? (err well, qfield/ qcloud…)

Now that I know I love it.

Bruh I said I’m down to 6.

And can you blame me?

I mean look at them…

I have (have) had 13 cats at one time. I’m down to 6.

Yeah idk. This was a criticism that I brought up of the fundamentals in lemmys structure early on: it selects for, effectively, clones of “whole reddits”, when it should be set up to support more balkanized instances.

Basically, lemmy.ml’s c/Politics is functionally redundant to .worlds c/politics; but thats by design.

What I think would be better would be adding tagging and taking federation a step further. Every post needs a ‘tag’; we steal that part from mastadon. It can have many, but it needs at least one, say #politics in this example.

Then, on instances, federation happens both at the instance level but also at the community level; communities can federate with other communtiies. But all posts get #tagged on the way in the door. Communtiies can then federate or defederate at will, and if neccessary, a community can “branch”; for example, maybe they want to split off US politics from politics; then you grab all the posts with the #US.

As far as an abuse vector. Thats just hang wringing. IF your mods are that abusive for a large sub, you’ve got way bigger issues. Which, if it did ever happen, is something that “forking” would solve. Mod on a power trip? No problem. Fork the community.

I meant in a technical sense. As in, hey here is a community with a mod on a power trip. I’m going to clone it, it lives here now: !somewhere@lemmy.world

For example, we could have cloned this sub and its contents and merged it into c/politics.

Lemmy & the fediverse needs to be more modular.

We need… something like a “transfer, merge, fork, split” for communities.

For example, if these guys are just going to nuke that content, another instance should have the opportunity to either fork it, or merge it with another community. Its mostly the same stuff as would have been in c/Politics here.

And what it does now, is it puts even more editorial power in the hands of fewer people (ones that ml probably) don’t vibe with.

Classic boneheaded decision.
