Yes.

From my own personal view I find it very difficult to disagree with every part of your second sentence.

I browse… Twitter, 9gag, 4chan, BlueSky, Lemmy and Mastodon. I find a mixed bag of cunts and diamonds on all of them - and loads of people in between.

The world is not as black and white as you see it.

Perhaps you might try sorting the wheat from the chaff next time before you make definitive sweeping statements about various platforms.

Jesus Fucking Christ man… is this really how you see the world?

My almost five year old piece of under powered apple trash cost me less than 45 US cents a day, still has regular OS updates and works between eight to ten hours most days running my entire life. I might even splurge out and buy a new one if they ever release an overpowered non trash handset…

Thank you.

I saw it a few days ago. I know the guy from his glitterbomb videos but it was the Roadrunner vibe that really attracted me this time

I’m no scientist but if you can map space mountain with lidar then… it’s probably better then a camera at identifying physical objects blocking your path. And his short experiment seems to support that.

The single biggest issue must be that it was just funny / thought provoking content on YouTube - not a groundbreaking thesis being developed in real time.

However, some apparent shortcomings of the Tezla are probably worth following-up… by far more qualified individuals in a far more formal and peer reviewable environment.

I’ve just looked at my instance on both my app (Voyager) and my mobile browser (DDG)

The difference in presentation is stark.

Federation is where one instance “talks” to another and exchanges content. If your instance isn’t federated then you’d just be stuck with your own content and members with no outside interaction.

The “g” stands for generation. So it’s the 5th iteration of the technology versus the 2nd iteration. Whilst there are many improvements (speed, capacity, security etc) there are some negatives. (I believe mainly to do with signal penetration - i.e. getting a signal in basements, stone wall houses, being behind objects etc.)

Where I’m currently staying I have: 2G, edge, 4G and 5G signals available.

I second this.

Still use my 5MX a couple of times a year… one of the most amazing pieces of technology I’ve ever owned.

Coolio.

So you can understand up or down but struggle with left and right?

I was trying to be analogous to help you understand… either you don’t want to understand or you’re not willing to understand or… there’s something else going on here.

-7 and -9 are both numbers… but none of them are at zero or above. They are both negative, just by varying degrees.

Are you referring to yourself as “drag” or is that a typo?

Well, right is a term relative to centre which is relative to left.

Political literacy classes are available online… the idea of anybody thinking Lemmy is right wing (whether it’s code or the majority of its user base) is hilarious and a bit sad at the same time.

I believe it’s Fr€nch - servers are European based. Beyond that I know nothing.
