Ah. Danke. Das ergibt Sinn. Ich glaube feddit.de kämpft auch schon öfter mit kleinen Schluckäufen, Datenbankproblemen etc.

Gibt's ein Statement von den Betreibern von feddit.de was los ist?

Hmmh. I mean I use a custom rom and Linux out of several reasons. But one of them is I want privacy and to stay in control. Often that requires some extra effort. Using PCs is quite alright for me. But the world of mobile apps is a bit more complicated. I've mostly worked around their crappy stuff by using workarounds like SafetyNet, third party apps and stuff. But it's getting more and more complicated. I kinda stopped bothering. I don't do NFC payments, I don't rent electro scooters because all of that stuff doesn't work. Nobody understands and I've complained to bank staff and it's just not something they care about. We still have a separate working TAN device. But I had to listen to the lecture how good the banking app is for like 3 times. :'-(

I think one of the alternatives is to use something like this: https://github.com/chiteroman/PlayIntegrityFix

If you really need an app. I think I'm going to weed out apps though and see if there are companies who offer better alternatives to their customers or alternative ways to access their services.

Bei mir genauso. Mal ist es normal-schnell, mal ziemlich lahm. Auch schon seit einigen Tagen.

I don't know of any technical problems preventing that per se. But the thunderbolt gpu docks seem quite pricey. You can get half a PC for that money. Or a whole used one. These old ExpressPort adapters used to be cheaper if I remember correctly (the ones which got some PCIE lanes out of an old ThinkPad with some flexible flat cable to a dedicated pcb.) The downside was, it's just a few PCIE lanes. And that's probably also a downside with the thunderbolt version of that. It'd take some time to transfer the model into the GPU's memory this way. But after that it should be fast.

I mean if the drivers etc work with that setup. I'm not an expert. And it's been a while since I last saw people using adapters like that. I wouldn't spend 250€ on that. It's too much compared to the price of that NVidia card and also too much compared to other solutions. I can get a refurbished office PC for that.

I think it's equal zero in this case. I'd have to look up the IEEE specification to make sure. AFAIK it's just not guaranteed for any numbers and depends on the floating point implementation. A general rule of thumb for programmers is not to use 'equal' with floating point numbers.

Well, the money wasn't "seized" and having jewish members doen't necessarily have anything to do with the business decision. It could, but we don't know. Also a single bank (despite being publicly owned) isn't Germany.

So far my take is: Yet another microblogging platform?

But I'd like to read/hear something about the details... How does the protocol compare to other existing solutions? Are there free server implementations? How do they handle federation, would I be able to just connect to them and do whatever I want? Or do they retain tight control over the network?

10 points for the clickbaity title.

Word of mouth, (social) networking and search functionality. And I think Mastodon as it's focused on people, and Lemmy which is focused on topics, require different handling. There are a few articles out there outlining that Stephen Fry and a few other famous people are on Mastodon. I'm not sure how someone would recommend me my favorite blogger and YouTube stars though, without me searching or clicking on a link next to their content... I think Lemmy is pretty alright. You can enter a term in the search bar and it'll show you the communities with that in the name. Or related posts. Also there are a few websites with listings and directories of communities. The UI could be better though, for example show other communities on cross-posts or include related communities in the sidebar...

And the "proper" way to do it would be to implement what commercial platforms do. Track the users, learn about their interests, have an "algorithm" that gives good recommendations.
