So basically engineers managed to even take solar power where we have steam-free power generation and insert steam into it anyway

Engineers loves taking every imaginable form of energy source and turn it into a way to drive a steam engine

This is starting because Trump himself also don't know how tariffs works

Also see the damn water reservoir thing because he doesn't even understand how water works

And see the Colombia thing

Removing sanctions, allowing the biggest bombs to be sent to Israel again, starting deportations of pro-palestine protestors

You have to be lying or must be blind if you don't think that's worse

Kinda - the dev team was external and had already started the project when Twitter offered funding for an open protocol based version of Twitter, and selected the current team to do it (so Jack could avoid moderation duties, lol)

Yup and iPhones use a patented codec (HEVC) by default. No care for compatibility.

Way ahead of you, our reddit forum mentions the difference in every single place we can put a custom text, definitely intending to do the same here

 

Hi all!

On reddit I'm the main moderator for a cryptography subreddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/crypto and I'm considering migrating it.

There's a few cryptography subreddits (one named cryptography which is the main option), the main difference with the one I run is we're a bit stricter about being on topic and thus maintaining higher quality discussions (in part because we're under a heavy flood of spam bots, so we need to filter strictly). We got plenty of people over

I see there's also a cryptography forum on this instance, but it's very scattered and doesn't really have very high quality posts. I wouldn't want to just take over an existing forum here, if I move the reddit community I'd like to recreate /r/crypto as a new forum here and establish it with all the same rules, etc.

Is there interest from the admins for that here? And how dedicated are the admins to maintaining this instance in the long term? (I don't want to have to move the forum multiple times)

And how much interest is there from the lemmy community?

(sidenote - this time around I'd handle moderation from a separate account, not from my main)

It's tribalism plus brainwashing. They believe the right way to show empathy to the in-group is to attack anyone in the out-group. Driven by zero-sum thinking and beliefs around "natural social hierarchy" being necessary.
