I dont think that at all. I think when people ask “why not mastodon” it’s coming from a place of misconception. Their own exposure to this knowledge and information is disproportionately higher than the world average, but it’s so much higher they can’t really comprehend how low the average is.

Much like a billionaire thinks a banana costs $10, a lemmy user thinks people know about mastodon at all.

The temperature based cycle tracking the smart ring has is a decade ahead of what the watch is able to do. My wife has an Apple Watch and still uses and prefers her oura ring because of the cycle tracking

It’s more accurate than other thermometer based cycle trackers mostly because you never take it off and it gets significantly more data points throughout the day at very consistent intervals than something like the Mira or into.

Lemmy is definitely its own little bubble. People here really misestimate the average person’s exposure to tech news or how much they can understand or care about operating systems and distributed protocols.

You’re all in here shouting about this to eachother and nobody hears you.

I dunno. I got a plex lifetime pass 13 years ago in college and setup Usenet with sab, sickbeard and couch potato. Aside from moving to sonarr, radarr 8 or so years ago I’ve never needed to think about it. Currently sitting at 36TB of content. Maybe I’ll move to jellyfin but ¯\(ツ)

Before that I was on DC++ and IRC and honestly haven’t needed torrents in my stack since I was in middle school back in the early aughts

Vivek actually just said he’s plans to defund NASA along with veteran care

The people within your “age bubble” definitely continues to grow until you are roughly in your mid 40s. But then it really does just drop off hard and fast after that. There’s things you can do that also cause it to swing wildly.

Move to Boston - it’s the largest concentration of 20 year olds in the world per capita. Nobody exists over the age of 30 until you are 5 suburbs out of town. So if you are under 30 you just artificially spiked your age bubble up to probably your lifetime peak. If you are over 30 you just prematurely fell off a people my age cliff.

Move to Florida - dead opposite problem.

For the most part this is how it works. One notable exception is I am now 14 years into my lifetime plex pass

My lifetime jetbrains, lifetime Alfred both gone, countless small apps too. Lifetime unraid I had to convert once after 10 years but is stable now

Direct-to-Avatar (D2A) refers to an emerging business model selling products directly to avatars (D2A) - or digital identities - bypassing any supply chain management like dropshipping, logistics of how to get a physical product to a consumer's door

It’s the next “I’m growing up to be a YouTuber or Onlyfans model” but for branded digital garbage. It’s also crypto for some reason and basically rebranding NFTs for a new round of rubes
