I don’t know what to say. It’s taught in a typical American economics class nowadays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkXI-zPcDIM
And what do you know about Nash Equilibriums?
But it was. With Don Lemon and the Cuomo.
I saw a Youtube video a while ago on how supermarket chains create customer profiles for each credit card. That way, they can get a better understanding of purchasing habits and how consumers react to price changes. Makes finding the most profitable price easy, you see.
This answer isn’t satisfying. Society, law, and morality all exist because of empathy. You can’t count on empathy to solve any more problems than it already has, or promote the value of empathy where it can not stand on it’s own.
Yeah. I usually go to the Playstore to buy out all the In-App purchases and support development, but this is really discouraging.
For Google photos/Contacts in particular, the gallery app was good because it would constantly ask to sync photos to the cloud.
Now let’s hope that the batteries aren’t provided in overpriced proprietary formats with a software lock attached to them like Apple’s iPhone screens.
Twitter is a extremely good fit for ActivityPub as there you are following users, while in Lemmy you primarily follow communities whose strength is determined by number. !technology on beehaw is better than !technology on an instance of 10 people.
By centralized, I mean to be in the 1-4 large instances on Lemmy that people flock to from smaller instances. Right now, the design of the Fediverse encourages former Redditors to join the biggest instances. Discovery tools might spread out the users and make solo instances more viable, but the activity may still be concentrated in the same few instances.
Every instance has the potential to be standalone like Tildes by defederating from everybody else once they hit critical mass. Like Truth Social on Mastodon. Or Kbin before it Federated.
You misunderstand. I was making the case that for me personally, the fediverse works better if there are few central node instances that are not particularly focused. I get that this is controversial, but I make the case for it anyways.
For example, I would rather have all the largest technology, gaming, and selfhosting communities be in one or two instances rather than having to x-post to 5 technology or gaming communities across numerous instances.
The second part is only speculation, but I thought it was worth mentioning anyways.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought Lemmy had mod logs by default.
Defederation is the moderation mask you speak of. Beehaw, for example, has the tankie instance blocked.
I also don’t find the distinction between owner and miderator useful. In the case of decentralized Lemmy instances with less than 1k users, a single owner may act as both moderator and owner.
