Have you used Firefox recently? There are a few chrome only sites but I've been daily driving it for a few months and it's mostly upside

Fair enough, I capitulated and I use spotify for podcasts now

All the same great war crimes you know and love, now with half the calories!

I'd go with:

"Collapsing the veneer of politeness that had historically covered the bloodthirsty colonialism of their societies"

I'm a dev but not very good at mobile.

I can promise you that a lot of engineering work went into making the tiktok scrolling experience so smooth. Part of the trick is having a good enough algorithm that the user wants to watch the majority of served videos.

Another huge part of it is having lightning fast content distribution and aggressive "prefetching" of the next videos in the feed.

I don't want to discourage you but I also don't want you to be caught off guard by the difficulty. Do you want to make this bad enough to give it your nights and weekends for a year?

Transform2942 ,

You're welcome!

So if you didn't care about having to wait for the video to buffer on every scroll, it becomes an easier problem. I kind of think that defeats the purpose of a tiktok-style interface though.

I agree that you wouldn't necessarily need to build a new algorithm, but like I said, it's part of the smooth scrolling magic

Rail is fundamentally superior to roads + cars at an engineering level.

All at the same time:

  • Rail has a smaller footprint

  • Rail moves multiple times more people or cargo per hour

  • Rail has multiple times more fuel efficiency

The fact that USA's policy has been designed to favor cars only makes them more 'practical' than rail if you consider political constraints more binding than physics constraints.

I'll grant that trucks have tighter turning radii and maximum operating grade. If we truly only used them when those characteristics are needed THAT would be 'practical'

I think your best bet is lemmynsfw.com (not federated with this server)

Transform2942 ,

I think they are "deleted user" and "blocked user", respectively

Transform2942 ,

I think blocked by you and deleted from their home instance

I think the author is saying more like: "A positive, specific masculinity may not exist at all"

Agree with the message but I probably won't be sharing this because the readability is so poor

Transform2942 ,

Also the creator is in Canada and has to jump through a bunch of hoops to even do the tests

It's not natively supported in Lemmy yet but lots of third party apps can. If you're on Android Sync and Connect both support it.

You're not wrong about the tankie thing, I'd say it's the major conflict in the "threadiverse" right now.

As you can see, I'm on lemmy.ml on this account. The moderation of the server is definitely weird. Since it is the flagship server there's more diversity of thought than you would expect.

If you want to avoid the tankie trolling and brigading the instances you want to block are lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net
