A straw for a swimming pool would be bad, but I think you're ok

Linux distros are getting mature

I think this is exactly it. Back in the early days of Fedora and Ubuntu a new release often meant major bug fixes, new software, and possibly a significant qol/usability changes and performance changes. Now, its all new versions of stable software, which all behave roughly the same. Which is exactly what you want in a daily driver OS. Stability.

Ah is capacity, A is flow rate. As long as the voltages are correct, it'll charge eventually.

Ah == size of the bucket, A is the size of the hose you fill it with.

Thats for proving its untampered with right? I'm more thinking of validating the archive copy is a "true" copy when adding it initially, which requires each node to check against the live site?

Its definitely an intriguing idea though, but I don't know enough to know how feasable it can be

[–] CameronDev 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I figured that every node would need to scrap the site, in order to validate the content. If there are thousands of nodes, that would ddos the site.

I don't really understand how PoW would solve that, can you explain?

Yeah, quite possibly. Could still be very hard to get right. Region blocking might make consensus difficult.

Edit: just occurred to me, any method of consensus could be used to ddos sites as well. Might be best left for people smarter than me

There was a ActivityPub wiki clone, no idea where it got to.

The major upside of IA being built and owned by one central company is trust. We can (so far at least, if I'm wrong please correct me) trust IA to not censor/rewrite history. As soon as every man and his dog can contribute, that gets a lot harder to guarantee.

Don't take me linking it as endorsement, I think federated wiki's for anything other than fandom stuff to be madness.

Is there something deeper going on with IV fluids? I was in hospital in Aus a few months back, and they had an IV fluids shortage as well, long before any hurricane in a far off country occurred.

We won't even pay nurses properly, as if they are gonna get given exoskeletons....

Text is a bad medium for conveying emotion.

To me, :/ has always been a fairly neutral expression, like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ or 😐, I would have used :( to convey upset, but its certainly reasonable that others would read it differently.

I kinda hoped my other comments would have made it clearer, but again, text is a bad medium :( oh well

Its a joke, relax. Almost all games get speed run, no reason to expect this to be different. And any% speed runs often skip huge portions of the story, no reason to expect this to be any different either. There is nothing to be mad at, it'll likely happen, it'll likely be silly/funny to watch.
