This is why ventilators can make sense to run in tall rooms even during the winter.
Sure, but these new C40 cells seem great for DIY projects since they don’t need compression like those rectangular ones or a lot of welding like those small standard cells.
I mean, yes by all means, but how is this related to Solarpunk?
As others have said already, email is one of the few things I would avoid self-hosting.
You could check with your domain / DNS host if they also offer email. OVH for example gives a free 5GB email for every domain. Otherwise there are of course email providers that let you use your own domain.


You are funny. That article links directly to what media typically refers to, i.e. “mass media”.
Ask any typical person around you what they understand if you talk about “the media”, and they will confirm that this indeed refers to what I am talking about.
The “social” qualifier is a direct reference to how normal media is a one way street and how publishing is only open to a selected few and that is what sets “social media” apart from it.


No, that is not what “media” means. That might be what the original word in Latin meant, but in English it is used to refer to things like newspapers, TV channels and so on, and “social media” is a direct reference to that.
A social network is social media that allows to form groups or communities. Two people communicating is not a network, the whole point of a network is interconnection between members of a group.
Indeed, and that is why I don’t really agree to classify WhatsApp as a social network, but it has chat groups, so it is closer to a social network than social media.


Wat? Sorry, but your definition is even further from anything that could be called a consensus. You could maybe argue that WhatsApp is a social network, but it definitly isn’t social media and it is completly outlandish to claim so. Where do you even get the “media” part in it? You know, compound words are still made up of individual words that have a meaning by themself. Kinda funny that you accuse me of “making up definitions” 🙄
But sure there are some blurry edges between them. For example, Instagram is primarily used for social media, but the direct messages are more used like a social network.


Indeed, I suspect the sales funnel is like this: one person picks it up for free on EGS and then annoys their friends to get it as well for multiplayer, but those friends rather buy it on Steam than to bother with installing another (bad) store app. At least I had that happen to me a few times.

That agreement seems basically dead now after the recent heavy attacks and large parts of the arab members of the SDF switching sides.
However, with the US troops seemingly having abandoned the Kurds yet again, and the SDF coalition desintegrating, it doesn’t look good for Rojava.
Edit: looks like after the agreement from Sunday failed, there is now another 4 day cease fire for the SDF to sort out what basically amounts to their surrender. Not great, but it might prevent some bloodshed.


Again, that seems to be a you problem. There are plenty of places on Lemmy that have very recognizable regular posters and comenters you can socially interact with 🤷


Eh? It is what I say that matters. You have a very strange world view if you think just because there is only a pseudonym attached it doesn’t matter. And of course conversing with others is social 🙄


Yes, and that is what connecting people means… talking to each other. NOT promoting oneself in a one-to-many fashion like what social media is about. Anonymous or not is of lesser relevance but it works either way.


There is a difference between the two terms as well, so thanks for supporting my point /s


That seems to be a you problem.
Of course it is an pseudonymous online forum, so it isn’t about making friends in real-life, but you can make plenty of connections with people online via it.


I didn’t say TV is social media, I said social media is like TV is the sense that it is a one-to-many medium. I could have also used TikTok to explain the difference, but people here are clearly confused about the destinction and it would have been less clear.
pseudonymous forum where its not common for users to become friends or know each other
This isn’t really true for regular commenters. There are even feuds between specific users and so on. I agree though that there are constant attempts by some people who try to make Lemmy more like social media by advocating for dissolving the destinction between communities and instances to turn Lemmy into a dumb meme and news posting app for entertainment purposes.
Mostly bad, but running AI models on Vulkan surprisingly isn’t any worse than ROCm, so there is little point in using that it seems.


You can’t reference more than one link in the URL field.
