for me the ripple design wasn’t even a problem, but i dread the days i have to wash something that had cooked meat in them with that plastic.

yes there is a warning but still no guide, not in the popup, nor in the association setup to tell what things mean

worry about users not being able to open files after renaming them since you can also edit those extensions via text, and people aren’t taught about file association.

the main idea behind the blockade is that Facebook implementing ActivityPub can easily overwhelm any instance small enough in infrastructure through the sheer amount of traffic that such connection would have on the rest of the Fediverse (case and point, the occasional waves of Twitter users moving to Mastodon), and with fewer instances it can get easier for the company to take advantage of that to take over the network and make it monopolized again.

edit: i didn’t read your comment properly, i thought that was lacking context. sorry x.x

edit 2: https://lemmy.ca/post/11771031 someone else shared this thread, it’s an interesting and important read

thank you ^^

i see now. thank you

the image doesn’t match at all with the actual website even though the individual entries in the picture are accurate.

the entire list is mixed half-and-half across the board, with slight bias to Federated status. still a long way to go.

in my opinion, the key here is that asking “why?” is going to be the most important skill you can teach your kids early on. “because yes” or “because not” or “because i told so” is never a good answer, and learning to ask what moving parts there are to anything can and will open up a lot of options for things they will learn later on.

that’s it, that’s the whole query back in 2010 all the way to 2014

i haven’t got a diagnosis for ADHD, but for the longest time i’ve been Kid B. used to fail at copying stuff from the blackboard to my notebook, sometimes having my notebook functionally empty that day, or sometimes not having enough because i didn’t write fast enough, and then get beaten up that day upon arriving at home and showing it and then being told by everyone that i don’t care enough and that it’s all fault of whatever entertainment i have at home (the console i used to play games in, the computer i browsed in, etc.).

got that drilled into my head enough times for me to start believing it myself at some point. delusion only weakening by the time i was living with my father and him not actually caring when i decided to put more effort in people-pleasing by trying to figure out how to write less to make it seem like my notebook has stuff written on it since i never figured out how to write text fast enough like everyone else in my class could.

this never went away though. in my previous job i still got told that multiple times, as well as having that repeated by my mother in the past year because of me not being able to get a job this far.

problem there is that anti-drm and ownership of a license to download and run software don’t combine while financially viable to the stores. aside from the additional problem of having to manage inventories, trades and everything that happens to break those systems, “owning” the license and allowing to sell to someone else doesn’t do much if you don’t employ a DRM to enforce the make-believe of you pretending you’re monetarily compensating a physical larbor of transferring a given copy of a media, people will share things with each other before you can blink and not care where it comes from so long as it runs and it’s clean, specially in places where people won’t pay for games instead of food. only reason CSGO skins works on Steam as the original NFT system is because there’s servers to enforce what people get to see you holding and what you don’t own. and allowing for transferring games between accounts without a DRM is not something you’ll ever see any big company doing under the liability of being accused of promoting “piracy”.

i think nothing beats literally getting the zip file with all the contents of the game with no middleware like GOG employs. to decentralize the store further requires the devs to at least manage their own website hosting, domains, ownership status accounts for updates. the only step available beyond that is the payment methods, and i don’t think there’s any viable solution to be done in that case besides having more companies like Stripe and Paypal.

in that sense, Itch is handling things pretty good for devs so far,
