This sort of stuff is crucial and needs to be built in.

Most instances are one user’s whim away from going away. This isn’t a problem as long as clients back things up and migration is easy. But, that doesn’t happen right now.

Guarantee we’ll see some big news at points in the future when a big instance goes down because the owner died or just lost interest.

Again, these are easily overcome, but they are issues right now.

Agree about the comparison with music. I wonder why we didn’t see balkanization there like we do for video.

Cable cost well over $100 a month many years ago when I cancelled it. And 1/3 of the content is commercials.

Pretty sure you could subscribe to every major streaming service for less than that. And as long as you avoid Hulu, you won’t see commercials.

Things are WAY better now, even though it was better a little while ago when there was just Netflix.

Can you repair Curtas? I think there’s a niche market demand for that. I’d certainly want it if mine ever broke.

The Connect app allows you to hide posts based on keywords. Maybe add “reddit” to that?

I don’t actually think I’ve heard a story of someone getting a domain back once it is lost. Glad this worked out.

I am surprised a story like this has a happy ending.

Walkabout Golf in VR. Simple enough for family members, but challenging even for gamers.

Is there a stallmanwasright community here yet? This would fit in there.

There are so many responses for Bitwarden that I am suspicious. Is it just that popular, or is this some sort of astroturfing? I didn’t think Lemmy was popular enough to attract that, but who knows.

Whoa there! This is a thread for naming bad games. Satisfactory is an amazing crafting game. I didn’t get bored until level 8 when the amount of material required to finish just got insane. But it is the end of the game, so I understand why it’s like that.

I’m trying to figure out how massive gravity could be proven. I found an article about a theoretical photon gravity wave detector that could possibly prove it.

Not sure how soon such a detector might exist.

I assumed you were talking about snoring.

Are they all gone? I can’t find them on eBay.

Meh. I was there 15 years. I’m not missing anything by being here instead. Heck, I feel like here is the more exciting place to be!

News cycles are weird faddish things. Don’t mistake news for any sort of reality.

Back in 1988, multiple countries sent ice breaking boats to the arctic to save 3 whales. It was a whole news cycle very similar to this.

Was that concern translated to concern and action to help whales in general? Nope. People only cared about those specific 3 whales.
