smart glasses with built in cameras, and for the same reason teslas

be sure to ask if they have swiped on the locking thing too

or certain keys on the keyboard

I don’t understand how can all your smartphones keep working after it repeatedly hitting the ground.

Drop your phone?

I’m careful with my phone, and for the last 15 years I did not have such problems. except when I had, but then the battery flying out was a very small problem compared to others

their point is unambiguous to me. it is that it is more complex to check if something was done according to a regulation, compared to checking if it was done at all.

@WhyJiffie Disclaimer: I’m not sure if Friendica is respecting the thread format from Lemmy, in my first attempt, Friendica sent this reply as a whole new sub-thread instead of part of the previous sub-thread. Sorry if this is being sent outside the sub-thread, it’s a glitch from Friendica.

yeah, I see the first one appeared as a top level comment, but this is now correctly in this thread. no problem!

For example (a meta-example): this reply to your reply wasn’t written so recently. I saw your reply when it had been 10 minutes since you had sent it (11 hours ago). Then I read it, then I read it again, and again… I read it several times so I could understand all the points you shared. Even though I wasn’t going to reply immediately (i.e. as soon as I saw), I began to gather fragments from my thoughts-replies (which started to pop up inside my head as soon as I began reading), writing these fragments as notes so I could further develop and compile them, only effectively sending when my reply was complete and ready. It’s an old habit of mine, gradually writing and preparing a text/reply/post over hours or days.

oh, I too often do this, with emails, where I compose it for a long time, all the while it changes a lot

Another word I would think of is superficiality.

that too, but also, often those kinds of comments are just plainly wrong.

One solution could be ActivityPub allowing for a departing user to update its own actor from given posts, replacing it with a community/instance-wide actor (thus a “de-actorification” of sorts), so the activity would effectively become part of a public domain (given explicit consent from both the actor, the community and the instance, of course). But it’s not an easy thing to implement nor to fully achieve in practice, unfortunately.

that, or what reddit does: replace the username with “deleted”

I see, I’m sorry for your bad experiences.

Or, ND content is simply ignored, ghosted, relegated to the void, either because NT people don’t know how to further engage with such a content, or because NT people couldn’t even bother to try and read it in the first place

while the ND/NT devide can have a significant effect on what kind of responses a long post may receive, I think about those who obviously didn’t read beyond the first 10 words in yet another way. I think they have a mental disorder of severe attention deficit. there’s some nuance to it, like sometimes the person is just in a hurry or something, but this can often be seen from the quality of the response because that 3rd type of person I mentioned is very prone to make very short, meaningless comments, which also have other properties I don’t know how to put into words, but which make you feel they didn’t even try to give something useful. and brainrot platforms like tiktok really don’t help with this worldwide issue.

That’s why I often find myself “nuking” my own content: because there’s no reason to keep a communication attempt that led to no meaningful and deep communication. I hope this clarifies one of the reasons why “Permanently deleted” could happen.

I see. Hmm. The cases where I find deletion problematic always had something useful in them, either the post or the threads.

this is a “beta”, the 2nd Release Candidate. they’ll mark a stable version when most of the bugs have been ironed out.

I’m fed up

let’s hope they won’t just hop on an open wifi and do whatever, but hoping is the most we can do.

never had such a device, if it works with Hass (offline) that’s kind of good, but I wonder if they are hackable before connecting them to a network, because they run a hotspot or something

do you remember which instance had those users? or the instance that has the community you posted to?

there are a handful that I think most of us or our admins are blocking, because they are toxic and have a brigading culture

been here for 2 years but haven’t experienced what you said you did, so I expected something that points to actual instances of those happening

check if their website is okay. privacy wise it’s much better to use a webpage than an app

if you read further, he writes about peertube too

Decision is yours, same as our decisions are ours.

Honestly, I think that is not really helpful.

truly a passionate dev

I think not all clients support it. is it a feature on the default lemmy website?

this can be useful, but hopefully it never becomes a default, it was enough of a pain when Windows was thinking that updates are more important than keeping the hibernated programs

even the outside?

for the inside I don’t think it’s a problem, it’s hygienic
