A’ight you won, gotta say something for today. But i hardly understand how people do manage to be social enough to post almost every day, like, they manage to make everything interesting.

It usually takes me 30-40 minutes to find the strengh to post something. How others will react to it, or is it even meaningful to post it, I find myself facing theses questions as much irl as online.

Anyways, it truly is a very nice place here, I agree with you, thanks to thoses amazing posters who never get out of inspiration. Thank you all.

Well, to sum it up, it’s a bunch of servers acting together like a big decentralised social media. They connect thanks to activitypub, and it’s quite amazing.

Here’s a good illustration, i think

For exemple, one can see your profile here from lemmy: lemmy.ml/u/camille_jamal but also from mastodon: https://mas.to/@Camille_Jamal@lemmy.ml/ And even from misskey! https://misskey.io/@camille_jamal@lemmy.ml

Even though thoses three fedi services have very differents interfaces and ways of working, they can communicate thanks to activitypub.

If you check c/fediverse@lemmy.world, you’ll see a bunch of useful links about the fediverse in their description.

I see you’re banned, hope you’ll still get my message, and that your ban is temporary… anyway have a nice day.

You can block users or communities, or you can effectively join other instances. I heard good from lemmy.dbzer0.com and lemmy.sdf.org, but it’s best to just go on join-lemmy.org or fediverse.party and finding an instance you resonate with.

(Oh yes, in case you didn’t know, the fediverse is not limited to lemmy, and is a huge system of many protocols and systems)

On federated social media, things changes very fast, and you will probably move to another instance from time to time. On the first hand, small instance are chill, they can be quite dead sometimes, but that’s where you will find peace from politics. On the other hand, big instances are active, but get sometimes involved in useless drama, and that’s where it often gets political.

Lemmy.ml, I know it, is a bit annoying on some terms, like the sensorship of some swears like “motherfucker” or of chinese criticism, but they haven’t been bothering me so i didn’t really leave. They are federated to a lot of instances and that’s a good point. Am also on a very small server with a dozen of people, there are plenty of servers like that if you dig a bit.

Well idk why did i wrote that much, hope it’ll be useful at least, and that the swear won’t get me banned.

See ya cyberspace anon!

You can say anything, but always better to have an account on two or three politically different instances in case you want to critisize USA, China, or any controversial thing in the world.

But if you ain’t an asshole, you’re welcome! Have a nice journey into the fediverse!

In Drake of The 99 Dragons, each time you die, (which happens often), you get roasted and humiliated by some gods in the after life for 10 seconds before they allow you to revive again. This has absolutely no reason to be here, except for doubling the loading screen time.

Could also mention, in the 6th installment of Touhou Project, Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, if you play on easy, the game won’t even let you fight the final boss, mocking your pride on such simple level, and this game mode is usually commented as child play by the games in the whole franchise.

Looked up on an encyclopedia, i admit i have been actually confusing communism with communalism, or communism at its primal sense. I had the idea that communism is the abolishment of private property and the equal repartition of remuneration between people, wether they work hard or not. Kind of like the functionning of ants. Simply got this idea from high school honestly (heh).

Though, if communism is only about collectivised production and distribution, i can see why it would be interesting to successfully implement it.

Honestly, i haven’t got a good enough knowledge of political alignments yet to be able to answer your question correctly, thank you for making me understand that. Do you reccomand any reads/authors who approached this topic?

Because pure communism breaks as soon as you have more than a few hundreds of people living together, in my opinion.

We are not ants, and we as a specie are doing things more for ourselves than for others.

A hypothetical society wanting to approach to the closest version of communism would need to be terribly authoritarian and selective, and would be very vulnerable to non workers pushing down the economy. To live in communism means to not let freedom to the workers. It is as unsustainable as fordism.

Aigh’t, while i don’t believe in the premise of communism in human civilisation, i think socialism, without it getting over the freedom of people, is one of the way to ensure the future of humanity.

I believe a balanced amount of anarchism and socialism can, for a medium sized population, be good and sustainable on the long run.

Tho to be honest, i don’t know enough in politics to say an answer.

I was going to say fourside, but you beat me to it, and the emptiness of it definitely played on the feeling of largeness.

There’s also Castellia city in pokemon b&w, the people wandering and the 3d buildings made it look like a real city, alive and busy.

Idk if it counts, but in Professor Layton, when i didn’t know what to do, i would desperately walk across the locations of the city and then realise it’s quite big for there to be buses and streets.

About 19 undecillion should be enough

Go to the fediring, and start exploring! The 8831 will be your guides. They have been expecting you.

As a person from pacific, we could choose between Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Japanese, and the local austronesian language, in addition to mandatory english, for high school.

Pacific economy relies a lot on tourism, and it mainly comes from Asia or America, so knowing how to talk to tourists can be handy.

No credit for Mollweide projection ;(

Fixed it with some that should be there and a melon put where he should be

Gotta say, nobody knows this game and rare are thoses who even played it, can it even be considered as a video game track, but i will say the first theme from Irisu Syndrome!

No matter how i think about it, my guess would be that an “accidental conciousness” inside a neural network would be very different and very far from our kind of conciousness.

We inherited a large part of our reasoning from animal instincts and life. We like water, we know what water is, we can see water, we can touch water, we can doubt on the edibility of water, we can recognise the sound of flowing water, and this sound even gives us a feeling of comfort.

What concepts would a sentient neural network even be familliar with? It doesn’t see, smell, touch, ear, taste, it doesn’t have the feeling of stress, pain, boredom, joy, the thoughts it would potentially have would be very different from its training material, and would inevitably be very far from our common sense. How would it want to enter in contact with us, if it has no interface with the real world? How would it even understand its situation, or start a reasoning at all if it doesn’t get any concepts of reality?

I think the only way a digital consciousness would even exist would be directly from human intent. If we design a cyber brain, inject emotions, feelings, concepts, self-awareness and will, this is probably the only way to get something conscious relatively close to our way of reasoning, and with a maybe humane will of dominating the world and destroy humans because they are a threat for themselves.

Idk if i would prefer Nyarch, Uwuntu, or Linuwux now 🤔

I hate the term AI vegan. I prefer mistechnitinoimosyne. More classy.

I understand the motive, I too am on some niche communities that sometimes didn’t have posts for months. For that i use reddit (but the old interface). Now let’s see your question.

No, we can’t make lemmy as popular as reddit, but we can turn lemmy into a reddit twin, and make it popular, by pushing only one instance like .world.

The social media that popularised fediverse the most was mastodon, and yet it’s because they pushed mastodon.social as the default, making a large part of the userbase think that mastodon is only mastodon.social.

People do not even notice things more complicated than buttons “join”, “login”, or “post”. They are lost on join-lemmy.org because they don’t know why they should choose a server, read description, understand whatever is federation, and they’ll prefer going back to their comfort zone.

But hey, social media experience enshittifies as the userbase gets bigger, and i came here by fleeing reddit so please don’t
