Christian crusaders and missionaries forced people to adopt Christianity and genocided populations, erasing entire cultures, but now that Christianity is in the majority it’s easy to say Christianity has nothing to do with imposing itself on the world. It’s already been imposed.
Evangelicals overtly continue the evil legacy of their missionary forebears, but all of Christianity bears that legacy.
This is interesting! I’ve been exploring this and it seems like a neat little license.
I’m not a lawyer, but one funny edge case I noticed is that the Extractive Industries module seems like it makes it a breach of license for crystal shops to use your software since you’re involved in the sale of minerals.
I would tend to agree with FSF that it’s not FOSS, though. There are so many restrictions on this license and who can use it, based on fairly arbitrary things like “if CBP claims you’re doing forced labor” or “you do business in this specific region”. It might be more moral, but it’s a different approach than FOSS, which is less restrictive than more and prioritizes “Freedom” above everything else. Maybe it’s time for a different approach, though?
Tbh Trek isn’t very gay, it seems like most people are straight/gender conforming by default. There are only a few gay characters. Compare it to the Culture, where trying out new sexes and sexualities is so normalized that there’s one character who’s explicitly mentioned to be cishet and another character remarks it’s weird that he’s never explored his sexuality at all or tried changing his sex.
CGNAT is for IPv4, the IPv6 network is separate. But if you have IPv6 connectivity on both ends setting up WG is the same as with IPv4.
Yeah, I can see that. It’s definitely more like a search index than a web crawler. It’s not great at being a search index though, since it can synthesize ideas but can’t reliably tell you where it got them from in the first place.
Calling it a web crawler is just innacurate. You can give it access to a web search engine, which is how the “AI search engines” work, but LLMs can’t access the internet on their own. They’re completely self-contained unless you give them tools that let them do other things.
Only the 14% statistic was explicitly about IPTV, the others are about “consuming content illegally”. It seems like maybe there are multiple surveys involved?
Only giving a /64 breaks stuff, but some ISPs do it anyway. With only a /64 you can’t subnet your network at all.
I really doubt it. We could give everyone on Earth their own /48 with less than 1% of the IPv6 address space.
Giving a /48 is spec, but a lot of ISPs are too stingy :/
Going to other planets would require a total re-architecting of our communications infrastructure anyway. There’s such distance too it’s not really viable to have a shared internet. Even Mars would have up to 22 minute latency at peak. So I don’t think it makes sense to plan our current internet around potential future space colonization.
Even so, IPv6 is truly massive. We could give a /64 to every square centimeter of the Earth’s surface and still have IPs to spare. Frankly, I think the protocol itself will be obsolete before we run out.
“You wouldn’t download a car” is a meme edit that got stuck in everyone’s heads. The original PSA actually does say “you wouldn’t steal a car” and basically was what you describe in your last paragraph.
All of your temporary privacy addresses will be coming out of the same subnet, so it’s clear they all belong to the same people.
Ultimately the privacy extensions are just bringing IPv6’s privacy back in line with IPv4, because without the privacy extensions every single device has a separate IPv6 address based on its MAC address whereas in IPv4 most consumer networks have every device sharing a single IP.
What does “woke” mean? What makes modern Trek woke but old Trek not?
I think the utility of blocking people on a public platform is kind of fake anyway. If someone is harassing you, and you block them, it’s obvious that you did it so they’ll just log out and suddenly they can see your posts again. Accounts are trivial to make on the fediverse too so they can always just spin up a new one to harass you.
I think silent filtering is better for that reason because they can’t tell that you did it so they won’t just immediately switch to a new account and keep going.
Active blocking like you’re talking about only makes sense if there’s such a thing as “follower-only” posts imo. Otherwise it’s a false sense of security because they can see everything anyway just by logging out or switching to another account.
Fediverse software tends to be kind of hostile to convenience features people have grown accustomed to. Recommendation algorithms, for example. Lemmy is on the cutting edge for having a “Hot” sort.
I know Mastodon has historically been pretty hostile to even more basic things like being able to search posts.
I get why they think like that, and I honestly agree with some of it, but it inevitably creates a culture shock for outsiders coming from corpo media. I think that plus the network effect means the fediverse will always be kind of niche.
Do you have a link to people talking about running a relay on a raspberry pi? I find it hard to believe that’s possible. A PDS, sure, but a relay requires multiple terabytes of storage alone and plenty of bandwidth/CPU/RAM that I just don’t see a raspberry pi being able to support.
I’d be curious to hear about any progress on setting up new relays though.
The free version of ChatGPT is 4o or 4.1-mini at this point. You can’t even access 3.5 without paying, ironically, since it’s legacy now.
You are absolutely a human being with dignity. I even have family who are Evangelicals and we get along well enough, though I dip whenever they try to bring up religion.
I was commenting on religion and its legacy. Of course you are not personally responsible for the Christianization of the world, or the cultural genocide of Indigenous people in residential schools.
I just think that the “I’m not like other Christians!” thing always rings a little hollow. You are a part of the religion that is the #1 weapon and driver of colonialist projects (including Canada!). The foundation is rotted.
