It does have autodelete, dont remember of its the default, but i think it explicitly offers you the option when you set it up

Yes :)

Why? You think they don’t do lobbying? Their cartels do constitute monopolies in my view

Right, not every firm is a monopoly. Bribing politicians is a necessary maintenance cost of keeping a monopoly. We agree.

Of course. Im just saying i dont believe theyre scared because they know they will continue to have more than enough money for lobbying. Its probably very cheap in comparison to what they get out if it. Any business has necessary maintenance costs

I dont know if that indicates that theyre scared, its just part of the maintenance cost of their empires

If you keep holdind alt while pressing tab multiple times it will cycle over every open window, not only the latest two. You just have no not release alt before you reach the window you want, otherwise it restarts the cycling with the new order of most recently used windows.

I think touchpads can be better for anything except video games. But a lot of trackpads are shit, some are too small, others lag, others are made of some material that feels weird to drag your finger onto. Although im not a fan of macbooks for many reasons, they do have great trackpads.

I made up that speed just to give an example. The thing about pausing/resuming is an advantage of torrents in general, for whoever needs it. Besides, when you download a file via DDL the speed also depends on the server thats sending, which is sometimes much slower than your download speed limit.

I think its a fair assumption that most people make that whatever data which isnt explicitly displayed to a regular user is not public. Having likes be public but hidden is misleading.

Assuming people use a vpn is a bit of a stretch. I dont know anyone that does that constantly.

This is still a bit of a nightmare. This being illegal will prevent people from showing the recordings publicly, but if they record for private use, no one would prevent them, or even know…

You download from a bunch of other people at the same time. So if you have a 300mb/s connection and 5 people have the file and are uploading at 20mb/s, it gets a chunk of the file fron each of them, so you would download at 100mb/s.

Besides, you can pause and resume the download as much as you want without corrupting the file. So if youre dowloading a 50gb folder, you can turn your pc off, and continue later. With DDLs, the download link expires and most browsers cant resume downloads properly. Plus if the browser corrupts the download you have to start over. The torrent uses checksums to detect corrupted parts of the file and redownloads just that small part, and in the end you get a clean file.

I guess killing everybody would work too :)

I guess they mostly scrape it. To waste resources posting here they have to find a way to make money in doing so. They put bots posting on facebook because they think it increases user engagement. They dont want to increase engagement on lemmy (not that it would work…).

They didnt??

Theres SiYuan that is open source and is in the same spirit as notion, obsidian,… (regarding usability)

Get into taking news slowly. Maybe set one day in the week for you to catch up on what happened a bit. And resist the urge to go checking for news constantly. Getting news from social media make it seem like a lot is going on all the time, but its mostly a lot of noise and many rehashings of the same “news” (especially if you get them through memes in social networks). Getting news on sunday is cool because you let matters cool down a bit and people have had the time to express what has happened better (theres less journalism on the weekends I guess).
