Do you think Threads (Meta's Product) will add such a feature that allowed anyone to migrate their account to their own server? I have no belief that they'll do, but I can only hope, as I love that feature on Fediverse platforms (mastodon comes to mind)....
After a year online the free speech-focused instance 'Burggit' is shutting down. Among other motivations, the admins point to grievances with the Lemmy software as one of the main reasons for shutting down the instance. In a first post asking about migrating to Sharkey, one of the admins states:...
well, kbin is somewhat defunct. mbin is under active development, and many of these things are on their radar. moderation tools are coming along, user list is not really an issue. they even got mfa workin!
these applications and the environments they are building are in their infancy. instance admins cannot expect a mature product, or that they wont need to get their fingers dirty to implement features they want. lemmy is at what, 0.19.4?
the image caching/filtering is good example of an ongoing concern 'verse-wide. as the lemmy devs pointed out, if this is a solid concern as an admin you would implement file scanning. if you absolutely want to use lemmy and need a user list, build it.

At a meeting Monday, the Peripheral and Central Nervous System Drugs Advisory Committee voted 11-0 that donanemab is effective at slowing down Alzheimer’s in the disease’s early stages
this is how efficacy is determined? by committees voting?? seems weird

Nearly two in five (37 percent) managers, directors, and executives believe their organization enacted layoffs in the last year because fewer employees than they expected quit during their RTO.

I'm thinking the animals would easily defeat us, since trying to get all 8 billion+ humans to agree on a plan of attack would be a near-impossible task. By the time we'd be done trying to coordinate a plan, I figure the lions and cheetahs would have already devoured us, not to mention the larger animals like the elephants....
ha, one species defense/offense vs everything nature has in its current inventory for defense/offense?? and a biomass that makes us look like a rounding error?
on the other hand, were doin a dandy job killing the planet so maybe we will win a stupid prize

people are inherently lazy. fines are only for poor people.
if you want to solve the problem, provide an easy method for the general public to correctly dispose of shit, and let them know about it.
the issue being that that kind of social awareness and general action costs money, and conservatives would rather watch the world burn than have their taxes raised.
we have an obscene amount of fossils sittin around in drawers collecting dust. i cant wait til we can feed all that crap into 3-d scanners, feed it into some detection LLM and vastly expand our knowledge at a rate we are not currently capable.
i read a lot of 'random scientist finds some random fossil in a drawer proving the opposite of some accepted fact'
ha, i never meant full-on GAI, singularity. i just meant a visual model good enough to classify what it sees in a very specific context. i never mentioned or meant to refer to 'ai'
