Nah, if that’s the goal they’ll just use Neutrino Bombs (look them up, they’re crazy what they’re designed to do)

as recently as 2005

You do realize that’s almost 20 years ago. That’s like saying “well you realize in 1985…” Back in 2005.

(The 2000s have been a blur for me time wise too)

I often times wonder if an extraterrestrial threat would be a unifying factor or if people would still be selfish unless it affected them. The pandemic was the closest we’ve seen to a world level threat recently and it just increased selfishness IMO (at least in the US)

Showerthoughts in a nutshell. Even when I went through and verified every rule was correct it was still removed. Modmail just responded “well you broke one of the rules” and would never explain which one or how.

Thank you… I hate all the people who are “we’ll permanently destroy the earth and it’ll never recover!” crowd. Maybe for us it’ll be too inhospitable and we won’t survive, but nature is surprisingly resilient. From bacteria that can eat oil and plastic, to entire generations of flora and fauna living in irradiated landscapes, it will adapt and be here long after we’re gone.

I know too many devs to have my body require a firmware update.

Thanks everyone. It sounds like I’m gonna wait for the 15 (non-pro) to come out and get that!

I’m the same way. I would love if there was a 15 mini. I’d consider the 13 but USB-C is one of my main drivers and the fact it’s already 2 generations behind.

Question for all of you all. I’m switching from an Android since my phone is 3 years old and there is certain things iPhone supports that Android doesn’t. The USB-C switch was the final straw for me. Should I get the 15 or 15 Pro? I’m by no means a power user (Sync, Mail, texting, an occasional video), but I like to keep my phone for about 3 years. Do I future proof and get the Pro, or save money and get the regular.

You went Tiananmen Square on it.

Trying to be glib that most technological products are made from silicon, which generally can come from sand.

Keep going back much, much further. I remember hearing that phrase back in the early 2000s, and wouldn’t doubt it if if was referenced as early as 1999.

10-15? That’s childs play. I honestly read probably an order of magnitude more than that.

Ironically Sync can block entire instances.

I live dangerously. I have it set to show NSFW and to not blur it in my feed. Give me all of Lemmy unfiltered.

How it’s implemented can vary, but you’re gonna take one of three approaches

• Microsegmentstion - On a home network this is the hardest but ensures there’s no overlap
• Separate VLAN - this is usually good if your router can support it and have multiple gateways for each VLAN. Your router can then restrict traffic. Unifi gear does this well and I use this set up to segment my guest and IoT traffic
• Separate subnets - if your router doesn’t support multiple VLANs this can work, but you still need a router that supports it

The latter two can actually work with an unmanaged switch as long as you tag your vlans correctly. The key is having a router than can handle it.

But the beard and your clothes are all things you control. You don’t expect someone to change their looks for you. So likewise you shouldn’t be expecting developers to meet your stylistic demands.

Given the activity pub nature I think the closest you would get would be to filter by an instance. So your home instance would get all the ones it sees via the pub and then could filter based on name. To get a true “local” view you’d either have to auth anonymously as a different user (couldn’t comment) or would have to log in to that instance as one of their users (disjointed comment history).

Edit: I think this goes under the umbrella of allowing individuals to filter instances, just a reverse application of it. I know that’s an oft talked about feature.
