I just bought this after playing satisfactory and I love the optimism in this game.

I'm so into it. Sure you can tell it's made by a small team but I couldn't tell it was made by 2 people. I don't like playing with mods but this one worked well with them to get rid of a bit of storage monotony.

Oh my god, that's awful. I am in shock people are dismantling our healthcare system and their voters think it's a good idea.

Which Provence are you in?

This is like someone standing in Times Square saying, "I don't go to New York or tourist destinations!"

Why are you here? How did you manage to get here?

I definitely prefer premium over my personal data being the product for "free".

As I get older I'm appreciating paid electronic services and content when done responsibly in exchange for a private ad-free and well done experience. But it's taking a lot to get over my decades of conditioning assuming everything on a computer and internet should be "free".

I've enjoyed my kagi premium search trial and seeing the prices is a bit much. But getting really good search results and having the webpage or search run so fast and seeing my ad blocker greyed out because there were no ads and trackers to block is surreal this day and age.

I just wish we had a better way of trusting telegram. The only thing encrypted by default is secret chats. I'd buy premium if it made all chats including group chats started by the user encrypted by default.

I thought FTL communication is just a fun typical science fiction understanding of quantum entanglement.

I thought we would still have to know what is going on at the probe via another means to know or decode the message sent by the entangled particles to their counterparts on Earth.

Kind of like putting two letters in two envelopes but we don't know what colour they are, just that they will always be opposite colours. Even the person arranging them doesn't know which colour they are. We don't know if a red letter is sent to London or a green one is sent to LA or what colour they'll be at all. But when we open the letter in London and see that it's the red one we know the other one in LA is green.

So no matter where or when the person with the red letter is, they'll always know the other person has the green one once they open the letter. But no information has been mysteriously transported across space and time, just the correlation between the two has been discovered.

 

Looks like it will take some time to figure it out, but the developer ljdawson is looking into Lemmy support for sync.

This app is so smooth, and caching posts and comments for offline use while on the plane or in low reception areas is a clutch feature for me.

I'd like to keep my hopes up. But communities that are based on where a person lives dont select for people of the same ideology or interests except for the fact that they are interested in the same place. So I expect these Calgary ones to eventually be similar.

In a community about a favourite game or hockey team or hobby, everyone is on the same side and has a lot in common and the topics are light. A city has far more complex issues than the average hobby and opinions vary wildly.

Let's watch and see.

Too bad for them I guess. I'll be engaging on here exclusively.
