Fuck Yankies

Why are you booing? Oh yeah, right. Because it’s a shallow and superficial take - but still, the boy has a point.

The Dems have been neglecting democratic process within their own ranks, in effect alienating their constituency - and it has been going on long before Palestine hit the mainstream. The last time the Dems held a primary was in 2008.

All of this has culminated in a disenfranchised voter base that just doesn’t give af about the dems - and it’s well deserved.

TL;Dr. From Wikipedia

IPFS allows users to host and receive content in a manner similar to BitTorrent. As opposed to a centrally located server, IPFS is built around a decentralized system of user-operators who hold a portion of the overall data. Any user in the network can serve a file by its content address, and other peers in the network can find and request that content from any node who has it using a distributed hash table (DHT).

So it’s BitTorrent in the web browser… thanks. How is that to be competitive with CloudFlare and Quic again? It has the same network issues that the blockchain has, in that it will be cumbersome and slow - for anyone else that doesn’t have millions to throw into infrastructure. Welcome to the same problem again, but in a different way.

The sustainability of it is questionable. If I’m not mistaken, IPFS is based on Ethereum, which has gone over to proof of stake rather than proof of work, but it’s still a pretty cumbersome system.

We’re talking about something that needs to compete with Quic and CloudFlare. I’m not sure that Ethereum or even crypto itself is efficient enough as a content delivery method, that IPFS - though a nice idea - is unrealistic.

But that’s just speculation from someone who has zero knowledge behind IPFS as a technology and protocol, so take it with a grain of salt.

EDIT: honestly, why qualify with “I’m not sure” when besserwissers and their alts roam the fediverse instead of going to therapy. Smh. Give the people a Tl;Dr at least. I’m not here for long form content.

No.

Please read my original post again. Did I say “was and always has been” or did I say “is”?

It is gambling, because dark pools. That is the house. You’re not trading the actual stock. The financial institutions do that. You buy stock from them, and they in turn give you a fake number and invest it in all secrecy.

In essence, you’ll get your money, but they will handle the profits. So it is a rigged slot machine.

And before you go “it’s to avoid liability”, fucking duh - it doesn’t make it right though.

Screw the privacy policy, bruh, read that TOS:

When you post Contributions, you grant us a license (including use of your name, trademarks, and logos): By posting any Contributions, you grant us an unrestricted, unlimited, irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, fully-paid, worldwide right, and license to: use, copy, reproduce, distribute, sell, resell, publish, broadcast, retitle, store, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, excerpt (in whole or in part), and exploit your Contributions (including, without limitation, your image, name, and voice) for any purpose, commercial, advertising, or otherwise, to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, your Contributions, and to sublicense the licenses granted in this section. Our use and distribution may occur in any media formats and through any media channels.

In other words, you put any content up there, they can resell it to some movie studio AND make an AI copy of you with no consequences… at least according to their ToS.

EU law however… well, time will tell how fast and violently EU lawyers will inject themselves into the urethra of the service provider.

Bruh, wtf you think stock trading is? Buying into funds is just hiring professional gamblers to work for you, "insider trading* is cheating and dark pools is just the high rollers table.

I’m missing some way to migrate all my notes from Google Keep. Is there a plan in the future for this feature?

Cus they can’t access SWIFT, ofc they can’t buy.

Besides, China is working on their own GPU/NPU/ASIC production line.

Russia (vassal state) x China (dommy mommy state).

Yeah, I’m not saying it’s easy to do ^^ it is a job and a half just to design it, for sure. I’m not facetious enough to pretend anything else.

Immediately scrolls down to the comment section. I’ve been spoiled by content just automatically loading, but I saw the “Load Lemmy” button. Tres chic.

It would be cool if there was a raised question mark button to the right for the load button, that on mouse over or click shows a tooltip explaining shortly what Lemmy is, as well as directly telling the user what community and instance the comments hail from - even before loading the content.

A standard tooltip for that purpose would be kind of nice.

Best covert promo ever.
