"The white man will try and satisfy us with symbolic victories rather than economic equity and real justice" - Malcom X

Mop, wire coat hanger, pregnancy test.

When a company' website doesn't work on Firefox I don't get angry at Firefox, I just don't use the site. When a company makes their cookie popups are a pain in the ass I don't get angry at the EU, I get angry at the company that made the popup. I use Firefox as a Canary that dies when a website is a piece of shit.

Maybe it's a win-win, I don't have to deal with Apple's bullshit and Apple doesn't have to waste resources on me, for me to block all their shady shit.

While I don't have any solutions for you I do have enormous amounts of respect and gratitude.

Downvotes: I don't personally miss them because I rarely used them. Either a comment/post is egregious that it warrants a report or reply, else it's worth ignoring. If the Content Creators prefer no downvotes because they're discouraging, then that's fine by me, more content is more better and the report button exists for "rule breaking" and "off topic".

Donations: No solutions only sympathy here. I hope you figure something out, I'm not sure the promise of a donation if/when you do helps or hurts right now. You're right that "sketch" is a barrier to entry for donations, but I can't donate the kind of money that my donation is worth chasing anyways.

LemmyNSFW became my main by accident, but it remains my main because I haven't found an instance I like better. The way you conduct yourself through challenges such as defederation, the Blahaj (sp) conversations, preemptive defence agains Meta... Honestly, it's close to faultless and looking at other instances it's hard to leave. Thank you and much love.

Free wouldnt work either. nobody would make any content.

Except it was free, and people did make content.

Really, it's to focus on her Lemmy presence.

As you're here on Lemmy, a site that has pornographic content, we're going to need you to post a picture of your government ID, next to your face, with your username on a piece of paper, as a reply to this comment. You know, to prevent kids accessing porn.

Nakamura said in a podcast all he would need to know is that there is a winning move and he'd be able to find it.

So, just one buzz is enough that says "in this position there is a move that wins the game".

Kinda like everyone's ratings in puzzles is higher than in elo because by the very nature of the puzzle there is a winning sequence to find.

In play, if I don't spot a winning tactic I just move to (try to) improve my position. In puzzles if I don't spot a winning tactic, I look again, and again, and again....

Toxoplasmosis?

The famous Labour double bind:

If a left leaning Labour lose the election, it's because they don't appeal to voters. If a right leaning Labour lose the election, it's because the left didn't vote for them.

Anyone willing to drop some learning on a lay person? Is encrypted data less compressable because it lacks the patterns compression relies on?

Or, is it less secure to encrypt first because smart people things? I know enough about cryptography to know I know fuck all about cryptography.

Not necessarily: consider a string of '0's and '1's' both infinite and random.

No matter how long you look, you'll never find a '2'. Same with the multiverse, not all things need to exist.
