NCD is going to be more sane than this US administration.

If it’s up to each and every one of us to solve pollution, then we individuals need to get together and take down the highest polluters, through collective action (and hopefully not violence, but allegedly Luigi has shown us its effectiveness when everything else doesn’t work).

Federation can make some communities not show their posts properly which would be a reason why there is little outside engagement. See how this comm looks on lemmy.ca: https://lemmy.ca/c/bitcoincash@realbitcoin.cash

Not that I know many that would be interested to begin with.

To play devil’s advocate, the instance itself appears to be created around 15 days ago (~3 or 4 Jan 2025), so most local accounts will be less than that age, and no one would sign up on that instance if they weren’t enthused about cryptocurrency.

Chances are it is a solo/small bot operation, but without context I can’t rule out that perhaps a community from somewhere else could have migrated. Either way if it becomes too obnoxious, the instance can be blocked client side or de-federated.

Lol if I had truly infinite money, this is a story of what I would do.

I would first have a “magical investment bank” that would promise 200% per annum with interest paid monthly, but only if paid in cash and at least 50 million to start. Have this scheme open for a few months with actual results and interest paid out. This is to get billionaires and megacorps to liquidate their assets into soon to be worthless monetary instruments. Then, everyone in the world but the top 0.1% would get 1 trillion. Everyone’s debt is virtually erased, and the old top 0.1% can go ahead, get their money back and feel bad about themselves. With all currency effectively rebased to a billion times than previously, now we can work on solving the world’s problems as shoulder-to-shoulder equals. Give the world food, give the world shelter, give the world healthcare, give the people of the world a purpose, give the people socioeconomic freedom, give them trains, give the world a chance at reversing disastrous effects of climate change.

If it didn’t work, then my money would be just as worthless any way (unless my infinite money powers could manifest in bottle caps or whatever the newest thing people found value in was).

I tell many people about it, probably none have signed up but it’s not my business to know their username if they have. Might be fun to meet some of you.

RedNote users, while you’re at it, can you show Americans some high speed electric trains and get them interested in it? Thanks.

If Elon can go fsck himself that would be great. I sense a systematic lack of integrity from him.

Yeah I was trying to summarize in a word how the linked comment used it, the developer was not talking badly of trans people per se, but was critical of how their group and the cause to express their identity is being misused by the ruling class. I imply that it could be transphobia, but I’m not certain if it is, even if I understand why it would be an upsetting and hurtful take for some. If there’s a better way to describe this succinctly with a more respectful framing, I’m open to alternatives.

Is the pinkwashing part when I use this opinion as an example of questioning transgenderism? I don’t personally have a problem with the opinion highlighted, but again I do not speak for everyone, and I understand not everyone would agree. The point of using this example is not about the opinion itself but what that disagreement should extend to.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by my pinkwashing attempt?

note: I clarified my previous comment that was missing a word.

Precisely. And this is much in the same way coming from the CEO and Proton official accounts. Republicans use Proton, just as much as Democrats. Until I see evidence that Andy Yen’s misguided philosophy leaks into Proton’s offering itself (and not just their PR channels), I’m willing to give benefit of doubt. Part of it seems to be not wanting to get on the wrong side of their leaders. As a reminder, these are the leaders that have been given a blank cheque from both voters and the justice system to do whatever they please with dissidents.

I get you. It’s important to remember there is nuance on topics/people you agree and disagree with, rather than jumping to “is against transgenderism”, or “agrees with Republicans on everything”.

Like you say, actions will speak louder than words. The further the Proton team can put their product and governance away from these opinions the better. The transition to non-profit structure is a positive step in that regard.

edit: forgot an important word in my comment

Biden’s pick Lina Khan deserves all the credit for aggressively prosecuting anti-competitive practices. However, Gina Slater looks like someone capable of continuing that work and a legitimate admirer of Lina Khan. Yes there are ties to Vance and the FTC office is likely to end up beholden to the egomaniac in chief. So the whole “little man” thing aside (that’s baloney), that’s one person that’s not a shit stain out of all the shit stains in the incoming cabinet.

Look Lemmy, you’re welcome to choose what you want in your life and what you don’t. But being too rigid with letting stupid opinions of a project’s founder cause you to reject everything, would have you miss the big-picture benefits of having such a project exist. If you look at this Lemmy development co-leader’s opinions on transgenderism, are you going to stop using this software that lets you converse on an LGBTQ+ safe-space instance with no involvement on a social level from said developer/founder?

Would anon want to be with someone full-time that they had to keep silent about their harmless hobbies?

If it’s just a local trip, I don’t really care, as long as I’m confident I just left it somewhere at home. Sometimes feels awkward on the bus because everyone besides the local homeless person or the group riders talking to each other is on their phone, but it’s fine.

If I’m somewhere unfamiliar I can get very paranoid as I worry if I dropped it, it got stolen, or if something else happens I wouldn’t know where to go.

Can it be expressed or represented approximately in IEEE-754 form?

Still better to learn that on the examination course than on the road.

Sometimes I channel my spirit animal

And I hunger for a pile of garbage.

Based on ATX standards https://xdevs.com/doc/Standards/ATX/ATX12V_Power_Supply_Design_Guide_Rev1.1.pdf,

Each 12V circuit from the PSU should deliver around 150W and definitely not more than 240VA (over current protection kick in rating). One cord runs on that single circuit so it can’t deliver more than that much power. I experienced this when I foolishly thought I could reduce cable clutter building my friends’ PC, only to realize the 3080 ran terribly and was drawing about 150W, not unlike OP, except in my case it was clear this was the issue.
