Also because JD Vance is a Peter thiel acolyte, one of the founders of PayPal, the global spying company Palintir, and an early Facebook investor.

Theil is an avowed monarchist that wants an American king, has come out and said that woman should not be allowed to vote. He pumps endless money into “think tanks,” crackpots and political races like Trumps to push an incredibly extremely brutal “the rich are your betters” policy forward in this country. This included dropping 10 million on Vance’s Senate run in Ohio.

Even if OP of this thread isn’t American, the charity is.

Nah, its this guy:

They arent dead, but they are in the millions of users, not hundreds of millions.

That is enough to sustain a social media platform, but none of them fully have the network effect going for them yet.

With federation, hopefully they won’t need it. That can be the network effect once interoperability is really here. Then everyone can still communicate, but not be beholden to any one service/owner/etc.

Bird scare tape is supposed to help, but haven’t used it myself.

The data lives in both places. Your pod is all of your data held in one place. The interaction is a copy of that data sent in and out to the various social networks.

I would expect that you could adjust how much context to save around your comments. Maybe it pulls down the while thread on whatever service, or maybe just the comment you replied to with a url.

This is a bit of a deviation from the initial “Solid” concept, as that was a fully standalone controlled data warehouse that you allowed social media to access only during using the service. It was a way to have control of your data because you hold the data instead of social networks.

With the fediverse’s replication between different hosts, there wouldn’t be a way to gate this data, so the concept looks like it was adaptived. A big advantage for the fediverse? Your account is actually on you pod, not someone elses server. The data is replicated via the servers is all. You would basically be “federating” your identity with a server, not depending on it.

Why are you posting an 8 year old political news article? What was your goal?

It ebbs and flows. Full decentralization would be ideal, but unrealistic. Power always consolidates, until it suddenly doesnt. Making it easy to leave when it “suddenly doesnt” is key.

The above is the core strength of the fediverse. Tinpot despots may have an advantage in the network due to previous efforts, but they can be routed around any time they go nuts.

This is a huge, huge win over the top down shitbergs that is current corporate social media.

A first step is RBL intergration, a shared blocklist of spam instances that subscribed instances would use to blackhole spam users/traffic/instances. These are used ubiquitously in email spam systems, so there is a precedent in federation systems for it working. We need to stand up an RBL, and then mod Lemmys federation system to work automatically based on the community blocklist.

It does mean that poorly admined instances will get blackholed, breaking their federation, but that’s the cost of a healthy network.

Crispy jalapenos are an option too. They would fit two parts of this recipe.

Youre on that tankies platform right now, bro.

You love tankies or something? Using tankie-ware like you are?

Ha, not bravery, just years and years of eating hotter and hotter peppers out of curiosity and the endorphin rush.

Serrano is still a great pepper with nice heat. If you ever find the heat a bit lacking in a dish, move onto a habanero, and then…

Highly recommend. The heat really amps up the flavors, and you still get the sweetness of the peppers behind it.

I personally add some dried ghost peppers flakes to it as well, which are earthy as well as hot. Flatiron has a great shaker if you like painful heat.

Borscht is highly underrated. Earthy and filling, great with yogurt or sour cream and some added vinegar after you dish it out. Freezes incredibly well.

We make it with beets, potato, carrot, onion, serranos and the vegetarian better than bouillon, then blitz it smooth with a hand blender. Not traditional, but amazing.

Ehh, just trying to understand the dish. You explained only part of the dish at the outset, so its not suprisingly folks came to the wrong conclusion.

Sounds like a really interesting ceviche mate.

Looks amazing, but yeah im not sure it can be a ceviche if you dont “cook” the seafood in an acid like lime juice.

I would call this a fusion Salmon poke bowl. Sushi grade fish servered raw in a type of sauce with other ingredients.

Poke bowls normally consist of fish, crunchy vegetables and a sauce like sesame oil, but this would be a really interesting spin on the concept.
