In the legal sense, “personhood” just means an entity can appear in court and defend themselves, not that it’s made of people. It doesn’t even give the corporation any human rights, it mostly just means that you can sue them

I don’t know why anyone would be mad about than

Honestly, the fact that apple used usb-c on it’s “pro” iPads but not the regular iPad is all the proof we need that even apple thinks usb-c is better

Just to prioritize download in limited bandwidth cables. Like a neighborhood might get 2Gbps total, but instead of doing 1 down 1 up they instead do 1.8 down and .2 up, then split that amongst a bunch of houses.

I think it’s funny when people act like the store brands are way worse than name brand, as you said it usually comes from the exact same factory. It’s just a false sense of choice so stores can look like they’ve got options

Yeah, which makes Ruby one of those languages like COBOL, you can make a lot of money if you’re in that world, but I wouldn’t ever recommend that someone should try and join that world, it’s going to be too hard to get in to and it might not stick around for long. I know some people that make a lot of money working in Ruby, but that doesn’t mean that anyone can, unlike javascript which will be valuable anywhere

It’s pretty nice, definitely prettier than jerboa. I still haven’t found an app that will let me swipe between post comment sections like Joey (for reddit) could. Heck, even the official reddit app could do it, it’s like the only feature it had that all of the 3rd party apps don’t. Once I find an app that can do that, I’ll probably stick with it

kind of. It has “view context”, which doesn’t show the parent, but it also has “more context”, which will. So between the two you can get what you’re looking for in 2 clicks

Lemm.ee has horizontal scaling, and afaik it’s the only lemmy instance to have added it. He has a sticky on meta@lemm.ee that talks about how he’s using a half dozen different servers to split the load, although there’s a few services that can’t be split like image caching, so they just get their own server. I think the changes are being pulled into future updates so hopefully other lemmy instances can start doing the same

What would you say is holding IPv6 back?

One testicle, and one boob

yeah, this is the norm for lemmy, it’s balanced political takes that are the new look as more of the general populace come in.

Sweet, that’s exactly what I’m looking for. Sync will almost definitely be my goto for lemmy then, once it’s a thing.

LG had some phones like that in 2016ish, on the G5 the entire bottom of the phone slid out to reveal a big battery slot and on the V20 there was a button that let the metal back of the phone pop off so you could change the battery. I had an external battery charger and a couple of spare batteries for my V20, so I could just pack spare batteries and swap them whenever it got low. I never even bothered to plug my phone in, it was always just faster to pop in a battery that was already fully charged. It didn’t have any water resistance, but it was a pretty small price to pay for endless battery life

It’s a shame that LG’s whole phone division went under, because they were making some of the coolest phones that came out that whole decade

well that’s mostly because the EU required that it become the standard. without similar regulation in the US it’s just taken a bit longer for all of the manufacturers to consolidate on one solution

Tesla adding CCS as an option at superchargers would have been good, but unless they actually switched connectors on their cars it never would have led to long term consolidation. For better or worse, tesla has 3x the US market share of the rest of the EV manufacturers combined, so no solution could ever be a universal standard without their support. In practical terms, this move means that we’re closer to a universal standard than we’ve ever been, we’re going to have 95% of cars and a majority of charging infrastructure all use one plug. Once we get to that point, there’s no chance anyone else will use CCS, nobody else has the influence necessary to keep it alive

Did it have the option to swipe between posts instead of needing to click on each one? It was a basic feature of the official reddit app that I’m surprised more 3rd party apps didn’t emulate. Joey was the only android app that I found that had it

Data mining can happen without any of that, everything you post in the fediverse is literally available for anyone to see. Realistically, the most harm they can do is build controlled communities that grow so huge that they drown out all of the fediverse’s open communities.
