Technology@lemmy.world•Australia’s Social Media Ban Is Isolating Kids With Disabilities—Just Like Critics WarnedEnglish
10·13 hours agoI was not prepared, however, to find absolutely no evidence.
Hold up, hold up.
Here are plenty of studies - https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=attention+span+social+media

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Is there any limit to the amount of instances to federate with?English
12·17 hours agoIt’s complicated.
You could federate with millions of instances if the people using them are not doing very much. But a handful of instances could theoretically overwhelm the whole network if they had malicious bots spamming like crazy.
The instance that hosts a community is responsible for sending copies of everything to all following instances, so most of the load is on those instances that host lots of popular communities. All other instances just need to be powerful enough to keep up with what they receive, which is 100x less work.
So even more important than spreading users out among instances, is spreading communities out among instances. Communities cause most of the load.
It doesn’t matter, Threads has crippled their ActivityPub implementation so badly that I’ve never once seen a post from a threads user. Meta gave up on the idea, effectively.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•A newbie's guide to self-hosting with YunoHost. Part 4: backupsEnglish
132·2 days agoNo, it’s legit. Elena has been tooting and peertubing about the fedi and her self hosting journey for over a year.

Crazy Fucking Videos@lemmy.world•A man launched from a moving truck in the opposite direction - at the same speed the truck was traveling.English
2·2 days agoVery weird. It’d be hard to ignore the reflex to curl up and instead put your feet down.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Seach for Threadiverse communities more easily by adding a custom search engine to your browserEnglish
11·2 days agoYou could probably do something similar with your instance, like
https://piefed.ca/communities?search=%25s. Any big instance is going to have 99% of communities already added.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are tell-tale signs a series has jumped its shark?English
11·2 days agoWhen the characters are talking about something and say “oh this is like that time when…” and a flashback scene which is just copy and pasted from old footage is used. Then they do this 5 more times in the episode. So annoying and cheap.
Ohhh, I get it now. Thanks for spelling it out.
Sorry for hurting your feelings. I didn’t mean to imply your bs detector is broken but I can see how it would come across that way.
No.

It’s ok to be deceived, I don’t blame you for it.
Yep https://ngrok.com/ is not affiliated with Musk at all. Their ‘sponsorship’ is that they provide me with a VPN service for free which they normally charge $10 per month for. @birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zone

Technology@lemmy.world•When a Weather Forecaster Needs a Fruit to Prove It’s Him: Another Signal of Ambient Trust Collapse in TechEnglish
3·3 days agoYes I expect it will be a while before client apps add it.
The author has been set as a bot, too. That is a very old feature so it should show up everywhere.
Ironically, that whole article is LLM-generated. I didn’t think The Atlantic would do that, very disappointed.
