I think that problem is due to nothing equivalent to GDPR, and privacy laws in the US that are handled at the state level, badly.

States allowing this access over state borders and ICE presence are complicit with the policies of the states it is coming from. People from the US have to realize, that the people abusing this, being chosen for ICE, and working to detain ICE detainee’s illegally, are operating from very specific states. This bloodless civil war has cost the US its democracy, and it’s f-ing hilarious how people think they are going to have legit midterms.

I would think so, given I’m actually replying, something the accounts with significant periods of inactivity or with simply no activity at all making upvotes/downvotes don’t seem to be doing.

I have no idea why that would be surprising or I should care.

Their claims regarding privacy are really not surprising, it’s very on-brand for the developer’s ideology to eliminate transparency for users in the platform while keeping everything stored and federated in the back end for the ruling elite, which if and when they decide to, become the arbiters of who can and won’t see it. They haven’t even bothered to provide any form of recourse to contest it, you basically have to go looking for people yourself. At least until mod member lists are made private too.

I fully agree with their decision, Lemmy is transient at best. They could still include Mbin, but why include a loaded deck? Actually, decided to check, yep, they did, kudos to them, they really did think it through.

Downvote all you want, still ain’t gonna change that jointhefediverse.net decision (based as fuck) 😂

Well, plenty of hate speech is fueled and paid by the oligarchies running troll farms and owning social networks. They don’t like the idea of someone rich getting shot at because of abusing society either.

Although joking, I do tend to assume that people who say SSD refer to the traditional SATA SSD drives and not M.2.

I actually only installed M.2 a few years back when I went serious on my PC. I’m aware of the issues, although it’s still running good. I wonder how long it will last. I still have a few IDE drives, and some no longer can be read. Not because they’ve lost the data, but it just doesn’t spin up correctly. It will be interesting to see how it works out, at the moment I’m keeping an eye out on the health using CrystalDiskInfo. There’s certainly been cases of M.2 sticks with shitty firmware, but so far I seem to have avoided them. I’m also trying out a RAIDed M.2 mini NAS, it will be fun to see how that works out compared to the traditional NAS.

Core i9 - Well there’s your problem.

No NVMe M.2s? What a noob! HDDs in this day and age!?!? Would you like a floppy disk with that?

4 slots of RAM? What is this, children’s playtime hour? You are only supposed to have 2 slots of RAM installed for optimum overclocking.

Does the dude even 8K 300fps ray trace antialias his YouTube videos!?!? I bet he caps out his Chrome tabs below a thousand.
