I'm sure Bill Watterson has some thoughts on AI.

It's hard to overstate

Yeah, Lemmy doesn't block you from accessing it via a VPN, for one.

They're probably close to the same amount of inconvenient. The cash tip jar feels better than doing the custom option which feels like I'm specifically trying to tip less (at least that's how I feel whenever I use it). I don't like feeling that way and would rather feel positive about dropping cash in a tip jar than feel bad about adjusting to a similar tip on the screen options.

I know it's stupid, but it's just how it makes me feel when using the screen.

In the US, I've started paying in cash to combat the aggressive tip buttons (your options are: 20%, 30%, 40%, or Other). With cash, I feel free to provide a reasonable tip for whatever service and they see it and appear appreciative, even if it's not the 20% the little tip screen attempts to strong arm you into.

Seems like a solvable problem though. We have a list of federated servers inately built into activitypub, right? Just need to tag results from those servers as being linked to a "lemmy" keyword search.

I'm sure I'm oversimplifying it, but all the pieces are there, just need search engines to be smart about how they index. Since there are a couple of federation based models that would be good to index, not just lemmy, it would probably behoove them to figure it out.

As I understand it, Lemmy, being FOSS, is pretty immune to this since there are no big tech shareholders to appease. Lemmy is susceptible to EEE (embrace, extend, extinguish) via something like Threads, however.

There are plenty of private companies that are shitty too. It definitely helps being private (and maybe is a requirement?), but you also have to have the right owners for private companies to be good.

Linux supports network accounts of all kinds.

They even have a guide for that! https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linux/install

Looks a lot like Immersed's Visor glasses. Not sure which one is more likely to actually be released and actually meet expectations.

I thought this was Mario in the thumbnail, lol.

Yep, that's the one haha
