Sadly, eagles don't sound nearly as cool and I originally thought. Somehow, I got the impression that the bald eagle has some loud and menacing scream, but that scream actually belongs to some type of hawk. The bald eagle sounds much wimpier.

Yeah, I feel like US trucks really should be company vehicles for the most part. That'd be a decent niche imo. And if it's company money, they'd probably go with the cheaper option anyway

I could make a lot of those arguments about the other truck too. Most people don't need a truck for most of their transportation. People in this thread are a ting like there isn't a single good reason to use American trucks. I can agree that they're usually excessive, but you cannot pretend that the other truck is better in every way.

Bc they don't actually understand what NFTs are. They actually just own some JSON that contains a key (owned by them) and a link to some server that hosts that image which presumably will always host that image.

How do new means of production come to be? Like, if a community really wanted a unicycle repair shop, how would that get started? How would it be decided that we use resources for that shop instead of, say, a pogo stick repair shop? Would that be up to a local government (or some other governing body)? Honest question.

How'd you end up in that career?

I feel like I missed my opportunity to brag about using Arch. I did an install a while back and the Arch wiki spoonfed everything to me. Once I got KDE installed, I honestly didn't feel much a difference between my Arch install and, say, EndeavorOS. That said, I haven't done any major upgrades yet, so...

Same. Reddit is my only source of baseball news and content and there just isn't a scene for that here on Lemmy....

Maybe I should post...

That first one is pretty good. If you had asked me what 550/2 is, I'd have said 275. But since you showed me 225 before I thought about it, it confused me.

Thank you for actually doing this.

I guess that can also be extended to things that can accidentally be suspicious. Imagine if Colonel Mustard, who "doesn't have anything to hide", let the police search their trunk and found a broken candle stick. Even though he wasn't being searched for that in particular, now he's a suspect in Mrs. Peacock's murder at the gazebo (Clue reference).

I'm not a security expert by any means, though I would imagine this type of attack can more be more easily made harder to execute if all accounts have to go through one server first. Lemmy seems to be as strong as the weakest link in this regard, but a centralized model is just a single link. I imagine that any effective strategy that works for Lemmy is much easier on a centralized platforms, even though the reverse statement isn't true.

That said, I'm optimistic that this gets figured out. Centralized platforms have had decades to solve this problem and we're just getting started.
