  • Tech's broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap

  • Hello L4S!

  • [META]: ban @szmer.info?

    Jump

  • That's how I had hoped it would work. So if it continues, just one instance can clean it up so all the others don't need to take any action.

    Probably the easiest solution. Just had to remove another one, guess we'll see what happens.

  • [META]: ban @szmer.info?

    Jump

  • But non-spammy regular users wouldn’t be able to post or interact at that point, right? Also, how would that affect users on a third party instance? For example, I’m on lemm.ee

    Genuine question, not too familiar with how the backend of Lemmy works and am curious to learn more :)

  • [META]: ban @szmer.info?

    Jump

  • Ouch, that’s definitely way out of date and has several critical bugs in it that are unpatched.

    I brought the spam issue from that instance to the attention of the admins for LW, they’re going to take a look into it. Will keep an eye out for more spamming today.

  • [META]: ban @szmer.info?

    Jump

  • I’m not actually sure how that works. If LW defederates does it block all users from that instance from posting? I would guess “yes” in that I believe the instance the community is hosted on plays a role in tracking posts to that community. If you’re curious, I would definitely ask one of the dev communities.

    Will leave up for a little since I’m sure a lot of other people saw the barrage of spam from last night. Should be all cleaned up now.

    Also, I do believe that is a legit instance, so it’s not likely it’ll be defederated, they’re likely a victim of the spammers as much as we are here… they just need to delete those accounts and block those IPs.

    Jump

  • Unfortunately this isn’t an action that mods can take. The admins of each instance need to de-federate from it.

  • Threads Has Lost More Than 80% of Its Daily Active Users

    Jump

  • On top of that, some of those apps are coming to Lemmy. Sync just launched and if a big iOS one like Apollo were to follow, then I think a lot of users will come over just to check out the apps. At which point a lot of them will realize they like Lemmy and just stay here.

  • Ethernet Consortium Shoots For 1 Million Node Clusters That Beat InfiniBand

    Jump

  • Impressive that Nvidia has found a price point for Infiniband that’s so bad that it’s actually more cost effective for companies to create an open standard to ditch them. The initiative sounds really interesting and I’m curious to see what comes out of it. The article mentions latency several times, but they really need to beat Infiniband’s deterministic latency. That’s going to be a challenge to do, especially while carrying all Ethernet’s baggage.

  • Sync for Lemmy - Now Released on Play Store

    Jump

  • Memmy has been a great fill-in, as has Lemmios. Memmy is probably a little further along, but both are definitely "Apollo-inspired" and both have been nice to use. Still some features missing that I have to come to the site for.

  • Tickled rats reveal brain structure that controls laughter

  • I'll bet they wrote that proposal expecting to be rejected for any kind of grant and then were laughing all the way to the laboratory after hearing it was granted.

  • Who else foresees environmental problems with this later down the line?

    Jump

  • They were talking about this years ago and I haven't heard anything on it in a while. Is it still even a project they're working on? Also, what would be the environmental problems with this? I remember reading at one point about submarine power cables potentially causing issues with marine animals because of EMF, but I don't think that was any kind of conclusive study.

  • Government fears AI could be used to spread fake news in run up to elections

    Jump

  • The one I always find funny is tech CEOs or ads out there that use the term "quantum leap" to describe an improvement. In reality, a quantum leap is just when an electron changes orbitals -- one of the smallest movements a piece of matter can make. In my mind, a device being described as a "quantum leap" ahead of it's predecessor sounds like it's barely changed at all. Even better is the state is often temporary as electrons jump up an orbital when absorbing energy and then will jump back down when they release it. All in all, a terrible marketing term.

  • Almost every part of the article was as entertaining as it was interesting, haha! Not only did they spend months tickling rats, but they actually turned up some new information on how the brain works in the process.

  • can we please keep this community about technology and not Twitter/X and elon news?

    Jump

  • Currently chatting with the other mods about this and while we don't want the community to be overrun by Elon, the articles are some of the most upvoted in the past few days. It seems, that people do want to hear about what's going on but not at a rate that drowns out other content. We've been careful to prune out duplicates to keep the flow down, but the volume of Elon posts and Twitter / X is definitely... a lot. I do see how some find it annoying so we're keeping an eye on the situation, but I do agree it does meet the criteria of being both news and tech related. I assume that he'll eventually run out of Twitter pieces to break, right :P

    Please do keep an open line of communication with us and all replies, feedback and opinions are always welcome! Cheers!
