Is there any evidence that Reddit has suffered at all from the exodus to Lemmy?
  • I think you are correct. Lemmy is really just gearing up at the moment, but can't handle the volume to compete with reddit.

    The increase of instances, user guides, communities and third party apps are necessary building stones of a federated reddit alternative of size.

  • De Vries admits ‘it hurts’ as he speaks out after losing AlphaTauri F1 seat | Formula 1
  • As much as it pains me, and I feel positively biased towards De Vries, I just don't think he has what it takes. His results never came, barring his quali at Monza '22 with Willians and the points that resulted from that one race. At AT he didn't come even close to Tsunoda, and how good Yuki really is remains to be seen imo.

  • 2023 Hungarian Grand Prix | Qualifying Session
  • Wouldn't mind some actual drama and rivalries instead of whatever Netflix manages to fabricate. Since Abu Dhabi 2021 everybody has been super okelidokeli friendly with one another. And while I do also like seeing that, it doesn't exactly get the heart pumping during the race. At least Ocon is still a proper cunt, otherwise you could start calling this Barbiela 1.

  • 3 browsers
  • I think it was a sensible decision to drop their own engine as nobody liked it anyway. Might as well go with a proven one and use your resources on stuff your customers want you to focus on. Since Nadella took over, Microsoft has been very well managed imo and they made a lot of right moves, like their move into cloud computing, embracing open source, integrating linux subsystem on windows, etc...

    Their choice to ditch their IE/edge engine is a symptom of these better managerial choices.

  • What is your machine naming scheme?
  • My old company used Greek and Roman gods and heroes. Hermes01 was the mail server, for example (because Hermes was the messenger of the gods). I don't remember all of them, but we had demeter (esx clusters), zeus (file servers iirc), Ares (backup servers), and other server names like that.

  • Billion $ net worth company creating kickstarter...
  • The company Philips is a very different beast from what it was. Almost all Philips products you know are produced by other companies who pay a licensing fee to Philips to slap the name on it. Philips itself is a shell of its former self and is focused on medical equipment. It's tragic actually, especially since ASML is a direct offspring of Philips. It should be a trillion dollar company but bad management and strategic shortsightedness have ruined it.

  • Do e-cigarettes actually work?
  • I started having pangs in my lungs around the heart area (like a stinging pain) which went away when I didn't vape for a day. Also, while not having a wheezing breath, I did feel strain on my lungs. It got bad enough that I went back to cigarettes as those only made me cough (well, amongst other side effects of course).

  • Do e-cigarettes actually work?
  • I quit smoking/vaping last year after 22 years of that. Vaping helped my lungs, to a certain extent, because I started having so many other issues from vaping, I switched back to cigarettes before quitting for good. I quit using Defumoxan, which is a brand name for generic pills with Cytisine as active substance. I've been recommending it to anyone wanting to take back their life from nicotine addiction. At least where I live, you can get it without prescription.

  • Modern life is so tied with smartphones living without it is increasingly becoming harder
  • I can understand your need for privacy, even though I don't go to similar lengths myself. That being said, I always prefer the way forward instead of shutting new technology out. I don't have the answer to how that would translate to your situation specifically, but a privacy minded android or linux os with a prepaid sim card could go a long way.

  • Why do we use base 60 for time and base 10 for everything else. Why has no one decided to integrate it.
  • Decimal time was introduced in Revolutionary France, just like the metric system and a decimal calendar. They made it non-mandatory after 17 months, partly because of the enormous costs to replace all clocks. The decimal calendar survived longer and was abolished by Napoleon as part of his reconciliation strategy with the Catholic church.

    Decimal time is still used by the way. Astronomers use fractional days because it's easier to do calculations with. And that very same ease of use is why Microsoft Excel uses fractional dates to calculate dates, as it requires less calculations.

  • Boost for Lemmy is happening!
  • Yes, it's going to be called Sync for Lemmy and preregistration opened two days ago. It most likely will still be some weeks before it becomes available. Ljdawson stated the target is 6 weeks, so that would be somewhere in the middle of August.
