How to gargle bells?

yes

Most comments mention this, I feel less amount of information (even on ‘nerd’ topics) and more repetition of same idea/meme. I still use reddit (without account) to find useful info.

Back in reddit days I used it more than I use lemmy nowadays. In many communities, doom scrolling will soon lead you to posts months old here, which is I guess a good thing in some way?

Also this place isn’t as congested as reddit so virtually no annoyance like bots and shilling and scams going on.

less “meme dunking” karma type comments.

this. I miss that from reddit days

Dropping onions in boiling baby makes more sense.

oops

I didn’t understand what you’re saying here, might be grammar.

Oh, by non stimulant you mean not dopamine reuptake inhibitors. I’m not sure but technically norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors can be called stimulant though.

Edit: I’ve never been on a NRI before, I think I should bring that up next time. I’ve not had anger issue with/without any medication either.

getting a non stimulant medication for ADHD

tell us more

How does one know that they fended off sharks? It’s extremely easy to know if someone is arch user.

Install linux/*bsd on your work device (that you take into meetings). Respect from engineers will immediately skyrocket : D

In Switzerland, in contrast to other places, the authors additionally have moral rights that cannot be broken or sold at all. For a more digestible intro I would suggest this site.

I didn’t know this transferable vs non transferable classification of rights exists. It changed my theory about copyright as whole. Thanks!

Yes that is absolutely annoying and I hardly use such online services other than those I have to like bank, any government services, package delivery/ridebooking etc where in app call doesn’t exist and calling is necessary sometimes and some healthcare.

Sometimes they do it to reduce throwaway/inactive accounts as (npn voip) phone numbers are harder to get at scale than email ids. But ironically, some countries have law requiring them to keep the logs so it might be used to connect identity against one’s will, say, by law enforcement.

I’m not talking about giving up copyright to content. CC-0 means waiving any as much rights as possible legally, which depends on jurisdiction.

and impossible in others (like mine, Switzerland)

I couldn’t find anything about default license of publicly available material in your country, nor about the impossibility you mentioned by basic web search. I’m genuinely interested to read about it so do share sources if you can.

Btw there is a FEP and some discussions that talks exactly about the issue you mentioned in the root post.

Edit: formatting.

Whatever you put on public domain without explicit license, it becomes CC-0 equivalent. So while it feels violating, it’s perfectly fine. The best opsec should be separating your digital identities and also your physical life if you don’t want it to be aggregated in the same way. These technologies (scraping) have been around for a while and along with llm’s will stay for quite sometime in future, there’s no way around them.

PS: you, here, is generic you, not referring to OP.
