It looks like it was an interesting AMA. Good answers, though no particularly hard questions.

Reminds me of that meme of Asian people with random English words tattoo'd on them.

Haha, reading this was like a journey. You can see your disillusion growing with every sentence.

You should look into Navidrome, it's the spiritual successor of subsonic.

Another vote for the Navidrome+Symfonium combination.

I'm still sad that the Tempo development seems to have stalled.

Apologies, I thought it was Python because I was trying to execute a Python script. And double sorry for not knowing how to interpret the error message.

I feel like you're being harsh. They lost access to the Play Store for a very long time and so could only update via F-Droid. Shit happens.

This new one is abhorrent though. Catastrophic levels of fuck up. But it's only one faux pas.

sabreW4K3 OP ,

For those with Termux installed, the Play Store is presently trying to update them due to a release that was made by the team member in charge of the Play Store account. The new Play Store release targets a newer Android version than the present F-Droid release, but is based on an older branch. Currently, F-Droid is in limbo, because it needs to be updated to comply with newer Play Store requirements, but to do so would break Termux as we know it. The Play Store build attempts to mitigate that.

All of this is in the linked thread but I just woke up from a nap and am feeling generous.

You'd be surprised at how many FOSS developers treat F-Droid as a second class citizen. I uninstalled Element because they kept pushing updates to the Play Store that weren't available on F-Droid.

This is massive news, because Germany are super entrenched in coal.

Morgan Freeman Explains To Keanu Reeves Why We Don't Have Free Energy - Chain Reaction (1996) - YouTube ( youtube.com )

I guess the conversation I would like to have is, are we ready? Do you think we have had advancements withheld and held back and is the economy more important than the planet? Personally I feel like everything comes back to monetary wealth getting in the way of global happiness. Star Trek really got that right.

People keep coming back to the free energy discussion and I don't know why, because it's moot.

The question isn't is there a secret hoard of free energy.

The question is, are we ready? When you (you being me) talk about do we believe we've had things held back, the answer is of course. But not in terms of technology, but in terms of restraints.

If you gave every house in your country a battery, solar panels, a rooftop wind turbine and a ground source heat pump, you could revolutionize the grid requirements. But that's expensive and quickly people would find a way to fleece the average person of their new found financial wiggle room. So again, it comes down to, how can we make it so money doesn't matter?

Someone intent a holodeck so I can experience a world without monetary wealth.

WTF? You know this is the Internet right? What's with these high quality posts you keep casually dropping?

a lower power bill for regular people

Isn't that great for the local economy though? In theory. If people resist hoarding and spend, the money accumulated through taxes and can pay for local improvements.

Profit incentive always does find a way in capitalism. Similar to the scenario of UBI, where without rent control, it is likely that landlords would try to gobble up most of that free money. I'm not sure how much of that type of leeching would happen if people didn't have to pay their power bills, probably not quite as much as it would be with UBI.

So really, we need legislation to save normal people from rich people, otherwise just to get rid of monetary wealth.

the only real solution is eliminating capitalism

Isn't it always.

History has shown us such a thing is possible to achieve. The best example we have is from 1936, during the Spanish Civil War. The anarchists in Catalonia created a society free of money and exploitation. It was as close to Star Trek as humanity has ever come.

I'm super grateful for this. Thank you and thank you again for such great replies in this post.

Following the other post, which lemmy.ml communities don't have alternatives on other instances?

Following the other thread (550 upvotes and 366 comments at the moment: https://lemmy.world/post/16211417), one of the complaints that people had what that some communities only exist on lemmy.ml and don't have alternatives on other instances....

But if the primary admin buggers off with the hosting and/or domain, doesn't that kill all instances?

I've figured it out @threelonmusketeers . The thing that was bugging me was where we should host the autonomous and self driving technology community and the whole time it was bloody obvious. @lugh can we host it on your instance?
