Our family loves our PS5!

It should be noted that MATRIX is a different entity from the secure open-source, decentralized, real-time communications protocol with the same name, which is perfectly legal to continue using.

From the article that @[email protected] mentioned ITT.

I agree. One of my sons doesn’t want to use social media (he tried several and didn’t like any of them). My other son only uses Reddit to find interesting things and information in niche subjects (he rarely interacts with anyone on the platform).

16yos aren’t going to listen to their parents’ advice.

That’s why I started and continued to talk to my two sons about it from a very young age (5 years old). Now they are teenagers and don’t have any online problems.

It’s somewhat funny how most Lemmy mods seem to discuss things on Discord or Matrix, rather than Lemmy (based on the chatter, though I am not a mod here so what do I know, really?).

Most of the time we need real-time chat (Mods on Discord) or real-time secure chat (Admins on Matrix).

A “Fraunhofer Society” refers to the overarching organization that manages a network of applied research institutes, while a “Fraunhofer Institute” is a single research unit within that network, focused on a specific area of study like materials science, healthcare, or digital technology; essentially, the Fraunhofer Society is the umbrella organization, and the Fraunhofer Institutes are the individual research centers under its governance.

They are credited with the creation of the MP3 format so maybe that’s where these supposed lawsuits are coming from?

What the fuck is this take.

This is way too aggressive. You could have worded this much differently in line with our ethos (be(e) nice) here. When you signed up for an account at Beehaw you agreed to this. So, please abide by our only rule and if you need more clarification, then read our documents. Thank you.

Please, change the title to what it was meant to be:

SS United States, record-setting ocean liner, makes its final voyage

They will watch the world burn for more money and power. They are diseased dragons laying on mountains of gold <- J.R. Tolkien reference.

I had, simply, forgotten that my friend had given me a free account.

Whoops! I forgot to mention that I have a tech friend that gave me a free profile/account that I use with the OpenVPN client.

Using a VPN solved this problem for me. If you don’t want to pay for a VPN, then use OpenVPN Connect.

Diablo IV: Vessel of Hatred.

Been running this insane build melting the entire screen. Very soon I’ll be target farming mythic uniques. Absolutely loving the new Spirit Born class!

Premier League/Champions League fan here! Good to hear!

Beeper is partially open source and I’ve used it for many years now.

I understand and completely agree from someone who is knowledgeable about this subject matter. However, MOST people are NOT. To clarify again, (and this is something that is getting very annoying to repeat over and over again) the general public have almost NO knowledge about the differences between operating systems.

Microsoft Windows is heavily marketed and, for most of the general public that aren’t aware of Linux, is a cheaper option compared to Apple/Mac/iOS.

I worked with/on Windows for two decades. Through those years I became more and more frustrated with the bugs and vulnerability to outside attacks. Windows is going to be attacked more, and for other reasons, because it is used by more people (a greater attack surface to exploit).

Back in 2008 I switched to Apple/Mac/iOS. I have never regretted it.

IF you have the time/knowledge (which most of the general public doesn’t have) to use Linux, then I’d recommend it.

Please, stop with this ‘fan-boy’ shit about operating systems. Use logic and rational thinking which I believe that I’ve shown above.

I’ve been involved with the academic study of the biblical texts for a long time. I am the founder of ‘Ask Bible Scholars’.

These texts are rife with bias, politics, metaphor etc. Furthermore, how these texts were understood and/or interpreted is heavily explored in what academia has named ‘reception history’.

Personally, I am a ‘theist’ in the sense that I believe that there is something ‘higher’ or there is something going on that is outside of our earthly reality. To put it another way, I believe that consciousness continues past human existence.

I am a critic of religion. However, I believe that Saul (i.e. Paul) said it best.

And now faith, hope, and love remain, these three, and the greatest of these is love. - 1 Corinthians 13:13

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

This love has carried me through five decades of life without fault.
