Meta Just Proved People Hate Chronological Feeds
  • I think the conclusion that people hate chronological feeds is not a very strong conclusion. People also hate some algorithmic feeds, especially when it’s full of crap and there is no chronology anymore. An ideal situation would be if you could choose both and also if you could influence the algorithm.

  • Room Temperature Superconductors - This Changes EVERYTHING!
  • Yes, not so fast. Only if other teams can replicate LK-99 and they can confirm room temperature super conductivity will it be time to say that this changes something.

  • Has anyone used or contributed to OpenStreetMap?
  • I enjoy editing my hometown and have been doing it for about twelve years. But my town is already pretty complete, so I check in every six months or so to change minor details like shops or adding a new bench in the park. In total I'm not even at 200 edits, but I always enjoy seeing those edits back in major tools that use OSM.

  • Does anyone actually enjoy working out?
  • No, I hate it. I listen to podcasts while working out. It's the only thing that makes it bearable.

    www.euractiv.com Wagner reached nuclear base to ‘raise stakes’ in mutiny: Ukraine spy chief

    In an exclusive interview, Ukraine's head of military intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov, said that the Wagner fighters reached a nuclear base and that their intention was to acquire small Soviet-era nuclear devices in order to "raise the stakes" in their mutiny.

    Tijdens de opstand op 24 juni was een deel van de Wagner troepen op weg naar een nucleaire basis. Het plan was om wat kernwapens te bemachtigen, om zo Putin extra onder druk te zetten. Mijn conclusie, Wagner = Spectre.

    Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin met Russia's Vladimir Putin after mutiny
  • Russian politics is a bizar spectacle and apparently we have no idea what’s really going on.

  • How would you feel about awards on lemmy?
  • Why don't server admins open OpenCollective accounts or something similar. It seems to work on Mastodon. I would be willing to pitch in to help finance the instance I'm on.

  • Einde van een tijdperk. Rutte geen lijsttrekker meer voor de VVD.
    nos.nl Rutte aan het woord in Kamerdebat kabinetsval, volg het hier live

    Afgelopen vrijdag viel het kabinet-Rutte IV over het migratiebeleid. De Kamer debatteert er vandaag over.

    Dit verandert een boel. Een VVD zonder Rutte.

    In my understanding of the main principles of the Fediverse, federating with any large corp should never even be considered. Is my understanding wrong? What is the "idea of the fediverse" to you?
  • Thank you for your thoughts. I would say that federated means decentralized in the first place. But to me it is also important that everybody can start an instance, users can switch from instance and you need to be able to control whith whom you connect. That means no forced algorithm. Being able to connect to other types of social media via something like activitypub is also high on my list. I disagree that the fediverse needs to be not-for-profit by definition. Bluesky is a for profit company and it has it’s own activitypub-like protocol. Is it part of the fediverse or not? Personally I prefer the not-for-profit fediverse and donate to several small instances monthly. I enjoy these communities that are not driven by profit, but by idealism.

  • [VERGE] Twitter has started blocking unregistered users
  • Well, that makes it even easier to never visit Twitter again. Right now I was sometimes tempted to follow a link and see what it was about, but I'll be happy to quit that habbit too.

  • Kate Raworth: "The Superorganism V. The Doughnut" | The Great Simplification

    Nice podcast with Kate Raworth discussing alternative economies that measure more than just the material wealth created by a society, planetary boundaries and of course Raworth's concept of Doughnut Economics.

    Behoefte aan Weesp

    Ik ben nieuw op Lemmy en dit is mijn eerste bericht, bij wijze van test in een nieuwe gemeenschap waar waarschijnlijk geen enkele behoefte aan is in deze wereld. Weesp. Dat kleine stadje onder de rook van Amsterdam, het lelijke eendje van het Gooi, de stad die ooit haar geld verdiende met water, bier, jenever en chocola. De stad waar ik woon in het centrum, met alle winkels op loopafstand, de stad met een van de beste ijssalons van Nederland en een bierbrouwerij en yogastudio in de katholieke kerk.
