And that’s why I’ll never give up my domain. Those vultures will immediately snap it.

I don’t recommend hosting a Lemmy just for yourself. How federation currently works is it mirrors EVERYTHING. Your disk will be filled up with images you never even view and you put yourself at risk of having illegal imagery on your machine if you don’t actively keep up with which instances you must ban.

While I believe they really could, that would be really stupid. Is creating a hotspot with your phone suddenly also not allowed? Because that’s all it essentially is.

Which of us didn’t crack the school firewall multiple times as they made it more and more annoying each time!

I will totally abide by all traffic rules when playing a virtual reality driving game in my sleep. Nothing can go wrong there.

But do I get paid for that?

When was it ever about improving it for the end user? From the picture, it’s absolutely terrible. You have what, four folders taking up the whole menu? Yeah, Windows XP had a more efficient workflow than that.

Other than the things already mentioned, you can read analog clocks easily from great distances, as long as the handles and the face have appropriate contrast (e.g. black on white). Even with impaired vision and large distance, being able to discern the rough position of black smudges on white background is enough to tell the time. This is not possible with a digital clock, because you can’t distinguish between the digits as easily. Therefore, I’d certainly argue their much better for legibility in the back of a classroom or a lecture hall.

You can’t begin to imagine just how much energy cryptocurrencies use. A web server can never come close.
