  • What is that sketchy ass site lol. Did you just link malware? Also it reads like an alien wrote that, none of that made sense. What a weird site.

  • As much as I wish this were true, this is in a bubble where Windows isn't already preinstalled on everything.

  • I use Fedora and I don't understand this

    I just want to pound my coffee and get to work. I finally gravitated to Fedora because it's clean and just works. Too much setup on my Arch and Gentoo installs with way too much breakage. It's fun to customize and tweak distros like those to an obsessive degree, until you actually need to get work done.

  • snap would be better then installing from manual archives, but it's comparisons are actually to your distro's package manager and flatpak.

  • Cool but the proper solution is that they shouldn't have access to this data at all. It should be either stored locally, or encrypted on their servers. Companies not being able to access their consumer data should be the default.

  • To actually keep data persistent on IPFS and not be deleted by the garbage collector, you need to have a server(s) pin the node that holds that data.

    You either host these servers yourself, or pay providers to store it for you.

    And at that point you just reinvented a server simply hosting your data but with extra steps.

  • There's a big issue with this.

    If malicious content like CP gets uploaded on to a server, obviously other servers do not want this to be replicated to their servers. So how would you solve this problem? Well they could give all moderation power to the original server they're replicating, but that could be far too slow or they could even miss malicious content like this. Or maybe they even disagree about taking down certain things.

    Another solution is that any server participating in the content mirroring could take it down for just themselves or for all the other members as well. The issue here is now you're expanding moderation abilities, while also giving the other servers much more responsibilities.

    It's not as simple as wanting to replicate content. If you host it, you are responsible for any illegal content a user may upload to it. Not to mention laws vary by country as well. Ignoring the technical challenges here, it's also mandatory that the other servers replicate the other servers data to also choose to be responsible for what gets uploaded. And that is a really big ask. The law doesn't care about the technical reasons, they'll just see illegal content uploaded to your server.

  • Personally I'm in the camp that I want history to be lost. That's part of the appeal to me. In fact my favorite feature in the fedi is Mastodon's option to enable auto-deleting posts of a certain age.

    Only content that is explicitly pinned or reaches a certain amount of interactions should be saved imo. Since that's the stuff you'd actually want to preserve rather than the 99% of forgettable content, and it would also drastically cut down on file hosting.

    Another thing is that a federation should only act as the exchange between users on ActivityPub. It should only cache relevant information and not be expected to store everything, like I wrote before. The user should be a portable account that is stored on a device. The federation server would sync your account between your devices, but not store it. You send your content to the federation, and then the federation sends it out into the world where they choose to do what they want with it. The federation shouldn't hoard it indefinitely.

    Also this makes sense from a privacy perspective. If you care about privacy, why would you also want all your data indefinitely stored? Unless certain things are relevant and explicitly kept, it should be expected to expire and be lost by default. Where did we get this expectation that data should be stored forever? Also you expect it to be stored forever and not be trained on by AI?

    This comment for example, after about a week or two most of the visibility and interaction of it will drop to zero. At that point, this comment should expire and no longer exist. I wrote this comment, it reached some people, and served it's purpose and should expire. I'm not going to pretend like this comment is some kind of historic document that should be indefinitely preserved, nor do I expect or want it to be.

  • So what's an actual argument supporting that gerrymandering is more democratic? When I was younger, I natively assumed it was a system decided by some smart people to make it more fair for reasons I don't understand. Now that I'm older, I realize that the smart people know what they're doing but are morally evil and intentionally do this to support corruption.
