At the very least I hope it’s hosted by someone outside the US so it’s out of reach to the authorities.

Gotta condition americans to the norm of guilty until proven innocent early!

And hopefully ad blockers too.

Why though?

We can just subscribe to the community on lemmy.ml, there’s no point reposting when it’s already there ready to federate.

It depends on your overall energy use but generally that would be negligible when compared to heating and hot water, especially during winter when the furnace runs 24/7.

In particular, during the winter, all excess energy from the oven is heat the furnace doesn’t have to provide so it’s basically free: you’d use that energy anyway.

Generally the economy of scale should technically favor the prebaked bread, at least before the store slaps its value added surcharge for it. The store still needs to pay for the energy (but probably gets it cheaper than you), but also needs to pay to maintain a factory, equipment, employees. So you kinda need to factor in the price of your oven too and its wear and tear.

I just buy the loaf because one thing I know for sure is if I factor in the value of my time, it’s way better and easier to work an hour than spend an hour baking a loaf of bread. The time to bake the bread costs more than if I used that time to work the equivalent time and buy 5 loaves of bread with the money.

It’s derived by both a key from the TEE and the PIN/password.

The reason for that is so you need both the user’s correct password, and the TEE to agree to hand out the key, which it may refuse to do if there’s been too many attempts. When you factory reset it just generates a new key, instantly making all the previous data permanently inaccessible. The TEE will also wipe the key if you unlock the bootloader or try to break in the wrong way.

It’s still only roadblocks though, extract the key from the TEE and you have unlimited attempts on what are usually weak 4-6 digit PINs. It’s not a lot of tries. Then you better hope you had a good password.

Biometrics are worst than a pin in a situation where your phone us hooked up to Cellebrite, because most likely they can just take your fingerprints, or make you press the sensor by force. Or even worse with facial recognition, because they can just wave the phone in front of you to unlock it.

It’s generally not super good otherwise either, at least not as a reliable way to derive an encryption key while being tolerant enough to damaged skin and positioning and all.

Biometrics are a good compromise for daily convenience: most people care about if they lose their phones or it gets stolen, and a thief will just factory reset it and flip it especially of the full qwerty keyboard pops up. Biometrics are still usually backed by a PIN or password, so biometrics makes it bearable to use a strong password since you only need to enter it once every couple days. And that password is the encryption key, so in BFU state you’re safe.

It was made back when Facebook had that old style UI, in 2010. And then interest in Facebook’s format kinda died, and so did the interest in the project.

I think I’m kind of on the other extreme, I day dream a lot. It’s like I can experience anything I’ve experienced before on demand and replay it. Sometimes it’s annoying, it’s like someone left 3 TVs and 2 radios on in my head and I can’t turn it off.

I didn’t know that was a thing until today, but also totally unsurprised, the brain is super weird.

I don’t struggle to picture it though, that only works for me if the book is interesting. When it’s boring (ie. forced to read it and there’s a test), I think my brain falls back to how you read books.

How do you guys without aphantasia manage to read when there’s pictures whizzing around your head all the time??

For me, the book and my surroundings completely disappear, the whole thing turns into a dream-like movie experience. I don’t see letters or words at all, it becomes an unconscious process that keeps feeding the dream and it looks similar to fuzzy AI videos.

Sometimes the process of getting pulled out into reality again can be brutal: suddenly it’s 3h later and I have to look around and take a moment to settle back. If you dream while you sleep, it’s like when you suddenly wake up while you were in an intense dream, takes a moment to process. I’m really completely gone in another world the whole time.

Í wonder if visualizing what you read slows people down.

Not really, I can read very fast too and also visualize it at the same time, like full blown movie. I think it’s more indicative of information processing abilities in general: I can generally keep up watching lectures at 3x speed and notice things on screen almost instantly too.

I’m super efficient at filtering information too: I’ll look at a paragraph in some documentation and immediately see “If you’re in X special case, then…” at the 5th sentence in the middle of the paragraph when skimming through documentation. Or of course skipping details I don’t care about.

I consider this one to be my public/serious account, so, eh why not, it adds a face, a personnality. And I think I look cute on it. Due to the origin of my nickname, it’s realllly not that hard to find out who I am. Facebook ruined the anonymity aspect a decade ago, so I just live with it. And it’s a little bit more recognizable than just the username. For anonymity I have alts.

It has some downsides though, like people telling me I look like I got my dick chopped off. I’m cis, my dick is perfectly intact. Come on guys it’s just hair dye lol.

Tesseract and other clients kinda do:

I had more in mind like an AM3 platform with an FX CPU, or equivalent old Intel platform.

Really starts depending on what you run on that GPU, like it’ll render Furmark just fine at full tilt but a modern open world game will probably struggle with asset pop-in and stutters because of both bandwidth and the CPU not issuing draw calls fast enough to keep up with the GPU.

If it’s PCI Express (as opposed to regular PCI), then it pretty much should work.

What may happen however is that the slot will run at a slower speed, so if you put a 5090 with a Core 2 Duo you will struggle to keep the GPU fed with enough data to fully load up the GPU while your CPU is pegged at 100%.

It’ll run though.

EDIT: You can also have issues with the legacy BIOS and your newer card not shipping a BIOS ROM to initialize it on boot, but once it gets into the OS it should activate. If you have an iGPU it should output there until the OS starts.

I think that’s what Friendica is supposed to be, decentralized Facebook.

Scarcity and being poor are two different things: when you’re poor, the grocery store is fully stocked, you just can’t afford it. When resources are scarce, the store is empty or almost empty. We’ve seen it artificially with COVID when people panicked about toilet paper. People bought all the toilet paper, some even to resell at higher prices. People do crazy things when you don’t know when you’ll get more, especially food and essential supplies.

Being kind when you’re poor is advantageous because other poor people will help you too when you need something. It’s community, and you basically end up somewhat pooling and managing resources together. But it kind of only works at small scale, because humans build relationships. At large scale it breaks into groups, and groups form even bigger groups, and you have factions and big fights.

For capitalism, maybe it’s not the best fitting word. I mean specifically people will barter and trade, someone will find a way to generate profits, hiring other people for profit and eventually slowly start hoarding all the resources just like regular corporate modern day. Even the concept of taxes is pretty old: you give me some extra grain and I’ll protect your farm. Someone will find a way to position themselves as important and justify taking more than others. Get favors, bribes, make more kids to help maintain the family’s power.

Ideally, socialism isn’t just “the government provides for your needs”, it goes the other way around too. The point is to come together, pool resources and combine our strenghts. There’s no free handouts, you give and you receive.

You shouldn’t have to enforce a birth rate cap if the population understand that they need to match society’s capacity to expand and build the infrastructure. You’d announce the recommended number and danger number, and people would organically organize to on average make it, knowing their large family could lead to famine.

The main problem here is

If all basic needs were met (food, shelter, and medical)

That part does a lot of heavylifting there. People only play nice all together when society is working for them, people need to respect the society they live in. When scarcity happens, people become selfish, it’s survival of the strongest, and everything falls off the rails and naturally goes to capitalism and hoarding resources. The population cannot lose faith in the system.

The graph suggests it started declining well before AI became mainstream. I’m sure it accelerates it, but it had already long peaked.

Maybe, just maybe, most of the big questions have been asked and answered already.

These days when I look something up it’s been answered like 8 years ago, and the answer is still valid. And they aggressively mark questions as dupes, so people aren’t opening too many repeat questions.
