Huh, good to know. Next time I’m looking for cable, I’ll keep this in mind. Thanks.

I’ve never seen one of those outside of this image.

Rust is straight up better than C. It’s safer and less prone to errors.

It’s not feasible to convert the entire Linux codebase at once. So your options are to either have a mixed codebase, or stick with effectively Cobol into 2020.

I know the rest of them, but not that one.

There’s an ocean of chess games recorded in chess notation. So it’ll play brilliant moves. They may not apply to this game or be legal moves, but in that other situation they were brilliant!

Have you asked it how many letter 'R’s are in Strawberry?

This is a lose/lose situation. Any other time I want the FBI and the CIA to be answering to the civilian president.

It’s hard to put a lid this genie back in the bottle, but it seems like this is enough of an emergency to pop it anyway.

Doesn’t seem like a super reliable source. I just grabbed the first result I googled.

I got it from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/1bg323c/oc_reddit_traffic_by_country_2024/

It lists worldpopulationreview.com on the image.

There this statista link which has similar numbers and sounds more detailed, but still doesn’t have sources available. Google’s AI points to statista.

So nothing definitive. But I certainly expect that most users are from the US.

I think it’s fine. I’m just tired of every issue being black and white and the need to shit on everyone who doesn’t see everything exactly your way.

He has a point. I don’t think it outweighs the greater point.

I could see the numbers being a little different for Lemmy, but I don’t expect that they’re wildly different.

I get his point, even if he didn’t state it eloquently. There are photography elements here that look kind of cool. Yeah, most people will focus on memories of history and, you know, how Nazis are fucking bad. But the danger is if something like this recruits anyone. Some people fall for anything with a cool font, even if it tarnishes the font for a lot of others. If I see a swastika, I want to see it carved into a Nazi’s forehead. I don’t want to see a stylized swastika with cool lighting effects that might appeal to a small number of idiots.

It helps that Elon’s face looks particularly stupid.

I don’t know that I agree with his argument, but I can see a grain of truth in it.

My point was for people who are scared to leave Twitter. They don’t have to. They can just dip their toes in while still holding their Elon-themed blanket.

I understand that often you can’t just drop the platform where all the engagement is when your job is to promote something. However, you can still enable people who do want to make the switch.

I now have a dozen comments on Reddit in the last year, up from 3 an hour ago.

The thing about Mastodon for influencers is… you don’t even have to leave Twitter. Just post to both.

If enough people get into that habit, it makes the transition much easier for everyone.

It blows my mind that places like the transit systems that were on Twitter haven’t migrated over to their own Mastodon server. They’re not that hard to set up, and there’s so little risk when you just don’t accept public signups on your domain.

Now I know your social security number. You fool!

999,999,999

The law isn’t being enforced. TikTok can just put it back up tomorrow and imply it was Trump that did it.

Would really like more rail. It’s the only reason I’m a bit nimby about apartments, too many cars on the road.
