Are you implying that because the concept freedom of speech exists everyone is inherently required to follow it? What point are you trying to make??
It's a paradox. If people around you are whining, you are somehow banned from speaking up and saying "stop", as that is also whining. Truly, no one can crack this nut
That's fucking brilliant, I'm going to try to make one
This made me lol
A distributed architecture generally refers to a single application or service designed to be resilient to individual data center failures. For example, Reddit, a centralized application controlled by Reddit itself, operates data centers around the world to process user transactions. In the event of an outage in a specific location, such as California, Reddit would still be able to function because its infrastructure for handling user requests and serving data would automatically switch to other functioning data centers elsewhere, like Nevada, Arizona, or Washington. This is an example of a distributed architecture.
On the other hand, a decentralized federation does not consist of a single application. Instead, it involves a software platform like Lemmy, which is hosted on multiple individual hosts. When a user signs up with one host, they can interact with users from other hosts, but each host manages its own infrastructure. For instance, someone could host a Lemmy instance on an old laptop they found in their closet and name it ballsuckers.com, while another person could host a Lemmy instance in the cloud with a properly designed distributed architecture and name it bingbong.com. Each host is responsible for managing its own instance. Users from both instances can interact with each other, but if, for example, the hard drive of ballsuckers.com were to fail, the entire ballsuckers.com instance would go down. However, this would not affect bingbong.com because its infrastructure is separate and managed independently.
I hope this helps!
A lawsuit has been filed by the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana and an Indianapolis Public Schools teacher against Indiana's "Don't Say Gay" claiming it infringes on constitutional rights. They hope to block the law from taking effect and ultimately have it struck down as unconstitutional. Hoping for the best!
Hey all, as more people leave Reddit and start filtering into here, I would like suggestions on directions to take this community?
Would you all like to see this as a more serious discussion grounds for LGBTQ+ issues, a place for casual conversations, or a place for memes? Maybe all? Maybe none? Let me know :)
As the Senate contemplates legislation to protect same-sex marriages, there has been a sharp shift in Republican support for the issue.
This article highlights the growing support for same-sex marriage within the Republican party, as evidenced by recent legislation and Gallup poll results. Makes me feel pretty hopeful
After a four year long wait, the trailer for Prime Video's hit fantasy series Good Omens season two has dropped – and it's queerer than ever.
I fucking love David Tennant lmao
What makes a distributed system good that Lemmy hasn't done? Seems like a pretty robust system to me, seems like scaling issues are on the instance host themself. With Reddit's experience, I don't see how there are issues
Pride and community were on display at Evanston Pride’s Queer Makers Market at Evanston SPACE, 1245 Chicago Ave., on June 10. The first of two markets, the gathering was held in an effort to promote independent, queer artists and small business owners during Pride Month, organizers said.
As someone who likes to work with their hands, I hope we can get spaces like this in SoCal. It always makes me feel good to see creators get together, especially queer creators
Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis can add more wins to his agenda targeting the LGBTQ+ community. A state board approved an expansion of what critics call the “Don’t Say Gay” law on Wednesday, and the House passed bills on gender-transition treatments, bathroom use and keeping children out of dra...
Everyday we get closer to the edge, this shit makes me so anxious
Representatives for major Pride organizations across the country encourage people to come out and celebrate in a safe and affirming environment.
This makes me feel pretty hopeful, places like Florida probably aren't safe though
