i think you may be mixing federated and small-web feel there. there exists the ability for individuals to have functioning email servers although it is difficult but fair considering how much of the world is reliant upon it and opposing it with various kinds of attacks. i dont thimk it requires many individuals to have their own servers for it to be considered federated, the fact that we have dozens of relatively big email providers to choose from who prioritize various different things is enough to cover the majority of peoples needs and i think that is the threshold requirement for a sufficient self sustaining federated network. regardless of that, if you compare this outcome of email as of present to lets just say a platform like discord whose goal is to facilitate messaging between people, you can evidently say thst emails outcome is better than the proprietary service that discord is locking people into and not making alternatives ways of accessing the service a simpler process.

The bone comic book series by Jeff Smith completely deserves a movie or show or something. The series is like Tolkien + Disney +metaphysics and is aimed at a younger audience but has enough deep ideas to keep adults actively interested. It has a rich history of the 90s-00s comic book era as well as some history in acholastic book fairs as well as some early internet meme culture contribution. It was solely owned by one dude who eventually got some help from someone who added color to the series that really made it a next level up. If anyone decides to read it from my comment here, check out the omnibus version and if you can find a 20th anniversary version, that has some nice history and behind the scenes type stuff included. There was a Netflix series that was in the works for like a year or so until Netflix decided to cancel it, so it already has some kind of an interest that I hope keeps building up and eventually makes someone do something about this forgotten gem. Here's a explainer video about bone Bone comic series explainer video

I'm so glad this album exists, once I heard it was gonna be similar to classic rock I was really hoping it would be a more palatable album that could hopefully be used to introduce people to kglw and it has completely delivered on that
Anyone else feeling like there's a conflict of interest by how it's the job of the news businesses to report things about the Olympics while also being the ones who supply money to the olympics, like theya rent going to want to report bad stuff about it because then it says they are supporting that stuff.

I keep telling people, the bambu labs printers, while costly, they are very worth the price since they do such a good job at printing things without tinkering and fixing while also still being relatively straightforward to repair if needed albeit it isn't as easy as something bare bones like a ender. And they offer really advanced features.

I figured I'd take the opportunity to ask if there are ways to improve basic math skills. I feel like a a kid I never really grasped those until high school and later and so as a result I hated math except for when it came up naturally in my life for fun (when I understood what was happening with every variable) Feels a little embarassing to ask about haha, I feel like I should be asking a more specific question but just...idk where to start or what my real issues are.
Idk if I'm just dumb but this is the first time I'm trying to watch the Olympics more closely and it doesn't seem to be so straightforward. I don't have a peacock subscription and it seems like NBC is never showing actually live events even ifnthey say live wo I keep seeing things a day late. I know there are other sources for Canada and UK that I'm not familiar with but then I need to mess with VPN stuff, which is fine but then I'll need to find a good VPN because I don't usually use one. Anyways any help is appreciated!
I might have to start watching the Olympics more, decided to get into it this year since I feel like I have been missing out of previous years

Yeah Linus tech tios has made numerous videos about heating rooms or pools with stuff in his server racks. I think with a lot of heat produced like that the added compelxity is worthwhile especially if the person is somewhat knowledgeable, heck, I see more people going the server rack way more now that self hosting and other open source things are becoming a little more common, at least as far as online people goes.

I have a similar question that I wonder if anyone can help with. So I'm not overly familiar with self hosting but I'd like to get into it more with simple things, I have a raspberry pi connected to a 3d printer for networked controls and I feel like I should be able to make the raspberry pi not be used just for that only. So like I'm thinking maybe I can run simple things along with it. Basically since the printer is noisy I don't want all that to be on all the time but I'd like the raspberry pi to do oter things too. Maybe I should make a separate post for this haha, anyways thanks for listening. Oh forgot to add my question lol So basically I'm wondering if there's a way that power on lan or something may be useful here

Thats a very good point and makes me think about how funny it is that we are collecting energy through various forms of convoluted systems...I wonder if we can find some way to harness energy more directly. Thats probably more like renewable energy and nuclear though if I had to guess, which is also sorta convoluted because you putting effort into storage instead of ways of converting the energy into something useful.

Yeah i agree, im not taking it for granted just because im not interested in politics very much.
confuser 3 months ago • 14%
Thought id chime in. I'm in the same boat, it annoys me to no end to care about politics because I can't help but see it as flawed all the time, I want the least to do with that as possible. I will wholly participate as much as I can if I was esctatic about the system we used, I haven't looked too closely into other countries but will if I thought I wanted to change my residence. If leaving the US for a country with a different system was a viable option for me, that's what I would do but I like family too much to go somewhere else.

I refuse to use anything that isnt arch based unless its a niche linux distribution for something specific because the arch user repository basically solves the biggest issue for newbies which is getting a grasp of packages for software. it has any of the common software and if you do need to build something from a github repo, that is ofc easy enough on any distro. I'm not the most technically inclined with linux and I use a chatgpt got thingy called code copilot in their search thing and I can use it to solve even really niche problems I have like a USB DAC not being recognized because it doesn't have the correct read/write permissions. most of the time I just ask basic things like how to get whatever github repo working and it helps me troubleshoot if I run into weird issues. I even got it to help me set up neo-matrix to run in alacrity terminal on bootup, it was a nice introduction to scripting and autostart and stuff when it helped me, so now I have a little bit better grasp on how that all works out.

I sent the Twitter image to chatgpt to convert the image to text and then I put that text into websim which generated a website that does exactly that and it even handles if you graduated recently and it will link you to a timeline of debunked "facts" here's the link, enjoy! https://websim.ai/c/GeEMLk9DuUC23jV9S

with the help of chatgpt, this Linux noob is able to use an arch based system no problem! I even get to use better versions of every software I've used in the past!

I havent used Lemmy much and only made a reddit account like a year ago after reading reddit posts for many years on and off but I alresy feel like this is the case on Lemmy.
I dont know if this has been asked before or if this may be a little goofy of a question but I didn't see anything relating to it and I'm kinda curious what the culture of Lemmy is like and what sort of common things people see. ive been paying attention to interactions but nothing is as good as just asking everyone.
how do you create a community on Lemmy? I'm not necessarily interested in making one and actively maintaining it but just curious.
It seems a bit finicky to me compared to revanced but it does function, may just be a bug, grayjay is still very new and I am surprised at how well it functions already!
