By ceramic dust you mean it is not poisonous? Or are some rare earth materials / heavy metals in there that poison drinking water?

Points that could improve the 1. point "Technology":

  • Make it possible to follow single users. Often I see some high quality content by users posted on communities to get drowned out by low effort posts ... Though on average high quality users post to high quality communities. Make it possible to follow/subscribe to a single user, making this place more like twitter without the character limit. A similar point about singular users carrying Lemmys usefulness on the back was made by cabbage@piefed.social
  • Introduce hashtags, to make it simpler to follow/ search interests. At the moment I do not see the niche communities I see on reddit thrive but broad categories that are hard to break up: Technology, Politics. While on reddit you would see multiple large active communities/bubbles related to politics with widely differing ideologies. This may be fixed by time and scale though...
  • Since every user is tainted by the server they log in to, it is easy to assume the ideology because he joined server lemmy.X .... make a way to hide that information, idk if that is technically compatible with lemmys design though ....

Since Lemmy is an open source platform it is incredibly easy to build automated bots to spam it. I suggest looking for quality user Profiles to follow, and see what communities they posted on to find high quality communities.

Stupid Question:

How do I find out if a website I use is hosted over cloudflare? The noscipt javascript blocker extension shows in some cases I blocked some cloudflare javascript. For example on the lemmy.world instance it shows a script labeled "cloudflareinsights.com" that I block. That apparently provides visitor analytics

According to them on insights:

Our edge sees all requests made to a website, regardless of whether it’s cached or uncached, the user has adblock, or they turned off JavaScript. This enables us to [....]

On other sites it shows a "confirm you are human" check-box labeled with the cloudflare brand (if I activate javascript for that site) -- according to cloudflare wikipedia that service is known as Cloudflare Turnstile. This is how I currently see if cloudflare is involved.

Another interesting thing I noticed on stackoverflow is email protected which confirms to me stackexchange also uses cloudflare somehow.

I guess you could detect a Reverse Proxy by cloudflare based on its IP-Adress ~ but I do not really know how to look that up perhaps the following stack overflow answer might help using the tools nslookup and whois... Any other hints on this?

nslookup www.monero.town whois -h whois.arin.net n <IP-Adress from prev command> | egrep 'Organization'

same happens if I try my stupid method: torsocks yt-dlp <INSERT-CLEARNET-LINK-HERE> Also gives me your error. But your method seems more secure, since it only goes over onion sites ....

Emperor "Hong". I could not imagine a better name for someone making this argument.

Old shredded hard drives are also produced by data centers? But I guess these locals want to see some profit from their neighboring data center.

yep sometimes the simple things, like building a house in minecraft, are the cool ones :) I am the kind of player to build the dirt house, or just build a underground base in some cave I started digging for iron/coal.

Should automation with Robots and Mashines not beat slave labor in the long term since the industrial revolution started? ... Or the scary part is combining slavery with automation for an even cheaper system than just automation in a free society?

Also:

  • Our product might be wrong sometimes, in those critical moments when the system encounters a new unseen problem not in its training dataset.
  • Our system might output a lot of junk data by design or accident robbing your clients time

But does this not centalize power to the team who develop the Wahl-OMat? They could scew the results in multiple ways:

  • Imagine they put in a bias to automatically substract some "overlapping percentage" points of your favorite party
  • Overvaluing certain question topics while ignoring other topics. Topics enter and leave public discourse over time, Wahl-OMat needs to adjust accordingly.

There should be multiple Wahl-OMat services to choose from imo...

I agree that Frieren villains are unique, to emphasize some other points:

  • Demons are depicted as this alien species that works on a completely different set of rules: Their fake emotions seem to have evolved genetically into them and they are incapable of changing their nature. They are to humans what Wolfs are to Sheep -- Alpha Predators.
    • Also demon-kinds social hierarchy being based on Magical power level is interesting completely going against Frieren hiding her power level.

But in a way Demon mirror Frieren as well, as she herself mentally diverged from humanity over 1000s of years.

The villains in Frieren are quite similar to Dragonball villains who are non human mos of the time. During combat they find out about their similarity to the heroes.
