None of those really “feel like” the things they’re replacing. I don’t really even think that should be the goal. They occupy the same space, though, and the infographic would look stupid if it showed all the options in some category, so they just picked a popular proprietary/centralized one, and a popular federated alternative in the same category. In this case discord is a popular chat app, and the most popular federa chat app afaict is matrix.

Is now a paid feature?
Was playback over 2x (through the official app) ever supported for free?

This isn’t about the USA and this isn’t about china.

The way you’re intentionally trying to derail the conversation, and the age of your account, leave me pretty suspicious that you’re just a Russian bot farm account.

You didn’t answer my question, you just repeated yourself.

Am I speaking to a real person or a bot?

True, but this post isn’t about the USA. Why try to make it about the USA?

Why did you think this would be a meaningful contribution to this discussion?

Depending on how hardcore you are about it, you can’t.

Are you getting up in people’s face to tell them not to use it, or are you answering why you choose not to use it?
Are you extremely strict in your adherence? Or are you more forgiving based on the application or user?

There are two general points I like to make:

1. Big companies are using it to steal the work of the powerless, en masse. It is making copyright strictly the tool of the powerful to use against the powerless.
2. If these companies aren’t lying and will actually deliver what they say they’re going to deliver in the timeline they stated, then it’s going to cause mass unemployment, because even if (IF) this creates new jobs for every job it destroys, the market can’t move fast enough to invent these new careers in the timeline described. So either they’re lying or they’re going to cause great suffering, and a massive increase in wealth inequality.

Energy usage honestly never seems to be a concern for people, so I don’t even try to make that argument.

How much yo momma weighed

Idk, I feel like their first few albums sounded pretty different to the ones that came later.

Outside of VPS firewalls settings and fail2ban, is there anything else you’d recommend to harden the VPS?

Idk about audio but they rate limit video pretty quickly. Audio might be low enough bandwidth for them to not care, but be cautious

Is there a reason not to use pangolin for the public stuff too?

I’m just about to make the switch from CloudFlare to pangolin on VPS, and I wanna make sure I’m not missing anything

Shut from where?

Shut your nostrils completely? That doesn’t seem normal.
Shut the air passage near where it enters your throat? I think that’s normal.

Yeah, but have you considered; penises?

Penises.

At the very least it wouldn’t get you kicked out of an interview at Tesla

Naw.

Poop on their desk

Well they didn’t say you couldnt get arrested.

A few years ago I’d have said a Nazi salute.

But now I have to ask clarifying questions, like the location of the interview

Good in theory, problematic in practice. A goal to strive towards but not achieve.

The main problem is that the dictatorship of the proletariat is so easily corrupted into a regular ol dictatorship. It’s supposed to be a transitional period, but when that much power is in play, it’s hard for people to give it up - and even when they’re willing, they can just get ousted by less scrupulous people.

Making it safely through that passage is like a Great Filter of socio-economics
