Re: tidal on Linux, if you use Arch there are a couple of options in the AUR. I don't know about other distros.

linux as a non supported web browser

I'm confused about this one, lol. I did not know that Linux was a browser rofl

They have recently changed that. Lossless is now part of the basic plan

Ok. So journalistically, the key points to get across here are:

• Tidal is changing its subscriptions plans
• They are now cheaper
• That's pretty unique since literally everyone else on the planet is increasing prices, not lowering them

How would you have reported the news? Would you have done something differently?

It's not that simple. Porn is a huge risk for a company, especially if it's user-generated content. You have to police access against underage kids who want to watch that content, and also have an enormous team devoted to immediately take down CSAM.

Lots of payment processors and advertisers do not want to associate themselves with porn because there are too many PR risks. Ask Pornhub how difficult it is to be a porn company on the internet, they've had lots of thorny problems. Or look at Reddit and how it's handling porn content before the IPO: they can't outright ban it or they'll lose users (e.g. Tumblr, another great example of what I'm talking about), so they are trying to hide it as much as possible.

Basically trying to monetize porn is not worth the headache. Last but not least, because there is so much free porn around. Risking so much to gain a few users that could go somewhere else in a whim is REALLY not worth it

You look fine to me! Only the belt is kinda strange. The pointy end should point towards your back, while the buckle should be aligned with the zipper

man, those screenshots hurt

Sony could do wonders with these phones, if only they would market them properly. And yet...

Then read the article and not just the headline. There are various examples of why that's happening.

There’s a canning recipe that’s been allowed to stay up despite the potential to make people sick. A moderator with zero 3D-printing experience joined as a “joke” to replace a mod whose expertise included identifying functional gun printing recipes. A new home automation moderator insists expert knowledge is unnecessary in a subreddit where bad advice can lead to electrocution or compromised cybersecurity.

Your examples are just funny, but when (good) journalists write "could", it means that they have analyzed something and they are predicting its outcome based on the data they have collected. It's not like they're just making stuff up

A factoid is something that looks like a fact, but is not

I appreciate the post and your thoughtful reflections. I think I agree on your perspective: defederation should be the absolute last resort (at least for a "generalist" instance like ours, not specifically dedicated to a group of vulnerable people).

I'd like to see what the users of Hexbear have to say, even if I might not agree with them.

I'd say let's keep them federated and see how things go. If resources permit it, mods should keep a watchful eye for propaganda and other unacceptable content.

Also, if users have the ability to block comminities (which is something I was not aware of), they should do it, if they so wish.

Again, thank you for your thoughtful message and for asking our opinion.

So I was curious about the question, and since every answer here was different, I asked Bing Chat. The response is pretty clear and - to me - surprising:

Baking and roasting are both forms of dry-heat cooking that use hot, dry air to cook food in an oven. However, there are some differences between them, such as:

• Temperature: Roasting usually requires a higher oven temperature of above 400°F, while baking uses lower temperatures of 375°F and below¹². This affects the cooking time and the browning of the food.
• Transformation: Baking often involves a transformation of the ingredients, such as turning a dough into bread, a batter into a cake, or an egg mixture into a quiche¹. Roasting typically involves whole, solid foods that retain their shape, such as meat, poultry, or vegetables².
• Browning: Roasting tends to produce more browning on the surface of the food, which enhances the flavor and texture. This is because roasting uses higher temperatures and oils that speed up the caramelization and Maillard reactions². Baking usually results in less browning, unless the food is baked for a long time or at a high temperature.
• Moisture: Roasting can cause more moisture loss from the food, especially if it is cooked at a high temperature for a long time. This can make the food drier and tougher. Baking can preserve more moisture in the food, especially if it is covered with a lid or foil³.
• Application: Roasting is mainly used for cooking meats, poultry, and vegetables that have enough fat to prevent them from drying out. Roasting can also create a crispy skin or crust on the food. Baking is more suitable for cooking fish, seafood, breads, cakes, pies, and other desserts that need to rise or set in the oven.

Vampire Survivors seems to fit the bill: no story, a bit of tactics, you level up to get new items, and enjoy killing hordes of enemies at once. After every run you can unlock power-ups for the next run.. It's one of my most played games in the last few months. It's one of the classic "just one more run" type of games
