  • how come Lemmy shows more upvoted posts further down the thread instead of at the top?

  • Just a note that comment sort is currently broken on Interstellar app, but they are working on fixing it. You can change the default in settings and that will work, but not the menu in posts.

  • If only I were the king of the world!

    I think what you are arguing for is hardcoding requitement for signatures with an "age appropriateness" ranking into the OS. How does this change the current situation where adult sites and apps are legally required to have an age verification popup/warning? Whether signature based or graphically based, what is at issue here is age verification which means referring to some "repository of truth" outside the will of the user. The problem is that the effect of this is to link government ID directly to web traffick, as to truly verify age requires verifying identity meaning abolishing anonymity on the web and enabling complete tracking of dissent.

    I could see a version of what you are describing akin to the way physical cryptographic keys are used to manage DRM on high end enterprise software, where identity/age verification would need to be done by the hardware vendor and not the software/site, the problem with that however is the aftermarket and multiple-user devices. You could say that the "age key" would be a hardware device sold to adults using physical ID akin to spirits or tobacco, something like a SIM Card but preferably with NFC rather than having to be installed in the device. "Adult Access" would then be enabled on sign-in by scanning the "age key", enabling onboard software to serve software and sites that don't have an "all ages signature".

    Honestly as I write this, it isn't the worst solution, the main thing would be keeping the Age Key as an interchangeable, replaceable device that only interacts with the OS and isn't referenced by other software, so it doesnt just become another Digital ID proxie.

  • What do you mean? Primary source always has best voracity in cases of government programs.

    As far as format I'll try and do so, I'm on Interstellar by way on MBin

  • Don't go giving them ideas. That way leads to Digital ID at birth, which should be avoided at all costs.

  • Expect a rise in teens on the Fediverse as this all escalates. Makes me wonder if a well moderated teen targeted instance with very public and transparent admins wouldn't be a good idea right about now.

  • Yes, tests like this are super important. Basic income is going to be ine of the great political opportunities of our time.

  • wait wait wait, you're telling me they just claimed to invent the core technology for an ansible? FTL communications?

    But this still requires the emissions of entangled photos from a single source right? and keeping the entangled photons entangled requires preventing them from being absorbed/split by interacting with molecules?

    Hmm... maybe this means potential elimination of long-fiberoptic data lag (which is tiny)? Or can they actually capture entangled photos in separate systems for meaningfully long times to transport?

  • Explain that

    Jump

  • Simple difference: spiders chemically synthesize long chain fibers not amorphous filament, the fibers are self supporting with tension, whereas hot printed plastics deform under gravity.

    You could theoretically print this way with a printer that had a flow reactor nozzle that mixed the reagents for fiber formation on demand instead of a hot extruder, I have yet to see this but it seems likely the textiles industry is working on it somewhere.

  • my thoughts exactly, better use some wild carrot type genetic stock to add back in more fibrosity. The beet should help a bit with that as well, perhaps a dash of Yucca/Cassava might help?

  • Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors

    Jump

  • I get that part, what I dont understand is why thr US would be reporting so many more heatwaves than its direct neighbors, even though the parts of the country hilighted in the graphic directly boarder Canada and Mexico. One would think those countries would have experienced the same heatwaves at least a portion of the time, yet there is a wide discrepancy in the number of heat waves reported between them.
